Do not use them for continuous protective operation. (a) Short Circuit Protection Function (SCP) The short circuit protection block (SCP) compares the FB pin voltage with the internal reference voltage VREF. When the FB pin voltage fall below VSCP（= VREF – 240mV）and with that situation continuing for off latch time, it latches output in off situation. Table 1.

The first loop is the one into which the current flows when the top FET is turned ON. The flow starts from the input capacitor CIN, runs through the FET, inductor L and output capacitor COUT and back to GND of CIN via GND of COUT. The second loop is the one into which the current flows when the bottom FET is turned on. The flow starts from the bottom FET, runs through the inductor L and output capacitor COUT and back to GND of the bottom FET via GND of COUT. Route these two loops as thick and as short as possible to allow noise to be reduced for improved efficiency. It is recommended to connect the input and output capacitors directly to the GND plane. The PCB layout has a great influence on the DC/DC converter in terms of all of the heat generation, noise and efficiency characteristics. VIN L CIN MOS FET VOUT COUT GND Fig 21. Current Loop of Buck Converter Accordingly, design the PCB layout considering the following points. Connect an input capacitor as close as possible to the IC VIN pin on the same plane as the IC. If there is any unused area on the PCB, provide a copper foil plane for the GND node to assist heat dissipation from the IC and the surrounding components. Switching nodes such as SW are susceptible to noise due to AC coupling with other nodes. Route the coil pattern as thick and as short as possible. Provide lines connected to FB and COMP far from the SW nodes. Place the output capacitor away from the input capacitor in order to avoid the effect of harmonic noise from the input.

Output LC Filter Constant The DC/DC converter requires an LC filter for smoothing the output voltage in order to supply a continuous current to the load. Selecting an inductor with a large inductance causes the ripple current ∆IL that flows into the inductor to be small. However, decreasing the ripple voltage generated in the output is not advantageous in terms of the load transient response characteristic. An inductor with a small inductance improves the transient response characteristic but causes the inductor ripple current to be large which increases the ripple voltage in the output voltage, showing a trade-off relationship. It is recommended to select an inductance such that the size of the ripple current component of the coil will be 20% to 40% of the average output current (average inductor current). VIN IL Inductor saturation current > IOUTMAX +⊿IL /2 ⊿IL IOUTMAX L Driver Average inductor current VOUT COUT t Figure 23. Waveform of current through inductor Figure 24. Output LC filter circuit With VIN = 12 V, VOUT = 3.3 V and the switching frequency FOSC = 500 kHz, the calculation is shown in the following equation. Coil ripple current ⊿IL = 30% x Average output current (5A) = 1.5 [A] L V OUT V IN ‐ V OUT V IN 1 FOSC ⊿ IL 3.19μ ≒3.3μ [H] where : FOSC is a switching frequency The saturation current of the inductor must be larger than the sum of the maximum output current and 1/2 of the inductor ripple current ∆IL. The output capacitor COUT affects the output ripple voltage characteristics. The output capacitor COUT must satisfy the required ripple voltage characteristics. The output ripple voltage can be represented by the following equation. ⊿V RPL ⊿I L (R ESR 1 8 C OUT [V] FOSC where : R ESR is the Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) of the output capacitor. Also this IC provides 1msec[Typ] soft start function to reduce sudden current which flows in output capacitor when startup.

Two poles are formed by an error amplifier and load and the one zero point is added by phase compensation. The phase compensation resistor RCMP determines the crossover frequency FCRS where the total loop gain of the DC/DC converter is 0 dB. A high value crossover frequency FCRS provides a good load transient response characteristic but inferior stability. Conversely, a low value crossover frequency FCRS greatly stabilizes the characteristics but the load transient response characteristic is impaired. Here, select the constant so that the crossover frequency FCRS will be 1/10 of the switching frequency.

Reverse Connection of Power Supply Connecting the power supply in reverse polarity can damage the IC. Take precautions against reverse polarity when connecting the power supply, such as mounting an external diode between the power supply and the IC’s power supply pins. 2. Power Supply Lines Design the PCB layout pattern to provide low impedance supply lines. Separate the ground and supply lines of the digital and analog blocks to prevent noise in the ground and supply lines of the digital block from affecting the analog block. Furthermore, connect a capacitor to ground at all power supply pins. Consider the effect of temperature and aging on the capacitance value when using electrolytic capacitors. 3. Ground Voltage Ensure that no pins are at a voltage below that of the ground pin at any time, even during transient condition. 4. Ground Wiring Pattern When using both small-signal and large-current ground traces, the two ground traces should be routed separately but connected to a single ground at the reference point of the application board to avoid fluctuations in the small-signal ground caused by large currents. Also ensure that the ground traces of external components do not cause variations on the ground voltage. The ground lines must be as short and thick as possible to reduce line impedance. 5. Thermal Consideration Should by any chance the power dissipation rating be exceeded the rise in temperature of the chip may result in deterioration of the properties of the chip. The absolute maximum rating of the Pd stated in this specification is when the IC is mounted on a 70mm x 70mm x 1.6mm 4-layer glass epoxy board. In case of exceeding this absolute maximum rating, increase the board size and copper area to prevent exceeding the Pd rating. 6. Recommended Operating Conditions These conditions represent a range within which the expected characteristics of the IC can be approximately obtained. The electrical characteristics are guaranteed under the conditions of each parameter. 7. Inrush Current When power is first supplied to the IC, it is possible that the internal logic may be unstable and inrush current may flow instantaneously due to the internal powering sequence and delays, especially if the IC has more than one power supply. Therefore, give special consideration to power coupling capacitance, power wiring, width of ground wiring, and routing of connections. 8. Operation Under Strong Electromagnetic Field Operating the IC in the presence of a strong electromagnetic field may cause the IC to malfunction. 9. Testing on Application Boards When testing the IC on an application board, connecting a capacitor directly to a low-impedance output pin may subject the IC to stress. Always discharge capacitors completely after each process or step. The IC’s power supply should always be turned off completely before connecting or removing it from the test setup during the inspection process. To prevent damage from static discharge, ground the IC during assembly and use similar precautions during transport and storage. 10. Inter-pin Short and Mounting Errors Ensure that the direction and position are correct when mounting the IC on the PCB. Incorrect mounting may result in damaging the IC. Avoid nearby pins being shorted to each other especially to ground, power supply and output pin. Inter-pin shorts could be due to many reasons such as metal particles, water droplets (in very humid environment) and unintentional solder bridge deposited in between pins during assembly to name a few. www.rohm.com © 2013 ROHM Co., Ltd.

Unused Input Pins Input pins of an IC are often connected to the gate of a MOS transistor. The gate has extremely high impedance and extremely low capacitance. If left unconnected, the electric field from the outside can easily charge it. The small charge acquired in this way is enough to produce a significant effect on the conduction through the transistor and cause unexpected operation of the IC. So unless otherwise specified, unused input pins should be connected to the power supply or ground line. 12. Regarding the Input Pin of the IC This monolithic IC contains P+ isolation and P substrate layers between adjacent elements in order to keep them isolated. P-N junctions are formed at the intersection of the P layers with the N layers of other elements, creating a parasitic diode or transistor. For example (refer to figure below): When GND > Pin A and GND > Pin B, the P-N junction operates as a parasitic diode. When GND > Pin B, the P-N junction operates as a parasitic transistor. Parasitic diodes inevitably occur in the structure of the IC. The operation of parasitic diodes can result in mutual interference among circuits, operational faults, or physical damage. Therefore, conditions that cause these diodes to operate, such as applying a voltage lower than the GND voltage to an input pin (and thus to the P substrate) should be avoided. Figure 29. Example of monolithic IC structure 13. Ceramic Capacitor When using a ceramic capacitor, determine the dielectric constant considering the change of capacitance with temperature and the decrease in nominal capacitance due to DC bias and others. 14. Area of Safe Operation (ASO) Operate the IC such that the output voltage, output current, and power dissipation are all within the Area of Safe Operation (ASO). 15. Thermal Shutdown Circuit(TSD) This IC has a built-in thermal shutdown circuit that prevents heat damage to the IC. Normal operation should always be within the IC’s power dissipation rating. If however the rating is exceeded for a continued period, the junction temperature (Tj) will rise which will activate the TSD circuit that will turn OFF all output pins. When the Tj falls below the TSD threshold, the circuits are automatically restored to normal operation. Note that the TSD circuit operates in a situation that exceeds the absolute maximum ratings and therefore, under no circumstances, should the TSD circuit be used in a set design or for any purpose other than protecting the IC from heat damage. 16. Over Current Protection Circuit (OCP) This IC incorporates an integrated overcurrent protection circuit that is activated when the load is shorted. This protection circuit is effective in preventing damage due to sudden and unexpected incidents.

ROHM designs and manufactures its Products subject to strict quality control system. However, semiconductor products can fail or malfunction at a certain rate. Please be sure to implement, at your own responsibilities, adequate safety measures including but not limited to fail-safe design against the physical injury, damage to any property, which a failure or malfunction of our Products may cause. The following are examples of safety measures: [a] Installation of protection circuits or other protective devices to improve system safety [b] Installation of redundant circuits to reduce the impact of single or multiple circuit failure 3. Our Products are designed and manufactured for use under standard conditions and not under any special or extraordinary environments or conditions, as exemplified below. Accordingly, ROHM shall not be in any way responsible or liable for any damages, expenses or losses arising from the use of any ROHM’s Products under any special or extraordinary environments or conditions. If you intend to use our Products under any special or extraordinary environments or conditions (as exemplified below), your independent verification and confirmation of product performance, reliability, etc, prior to use, must be necessary: [a] Use of our Products in any types of liquid, including water, oils, chemicals, and organic solvents [b] Use of our Products outdoors or in places where the Products are exposed to direct sunlight or dust [c] Use of our Products in places where the Products are exposed to sea wind or corrosive gases, including Cl2, H2S, NH3, SO2, and NO2 [d] Use of our Products in places where the Products are exposed to static electricity or electromagnetic waves [e] Use of our Products in proximity to heat-producing components, plastic cords, or other flammable items [f] Sealing or coating our Products with resin or other coating materials [g] Use of our Products without cleaning residue of flux (even if you use no-clean type fluxes, cleaning residue of flux is recommended); or Washing our Products by using water or water-soluble cleaning agents for cleaning residue after soldering [h] Use of the Products in places subject to dew condensation 4. The Products are not subject to radiation-proof design. 5. Please verify and confirm characteristics of the final or mounted products in using the Products. 6. In particular, if a transient load (a large amount of load applied in a short period of time, such as pulse. is applied, confirmation of performance characteristics after on-board mounting is strongly recommended. Avoid applying power exceeding normal rated power; exceeding the power rating under steady-state loading condition may negatively affect product performance and reliability. 7. De-rate Power Dissipation (Pd) depending on Ambient temperature (Ta). When used in sealed area, confirm the actual ambient temperature. 8.
