MIC2290 2mm × 2mm PWM Boost Regulator with Internal Schotty Diode General Description Features The MIC2290 is a 1.2MHz, PWM, boost-switching regulator housed in the small size 2mm × 2mm 8-pin MLF® package. The MIC2290 features an internal Schottky diode that reduces circuit board area and total solution cost. High power density is achieved with the MIC2290’s internal 34V/0.5A switch, allowing it to power large loads in a tiny footprint. The MIC2290 implements a constant frequency 1.2MHz PWM control scheme. The high frequency operation saves board space by reducing external component sizes. The fixed frequency PWM topology also reduces switching noise and ripple to the input power source. The MIC2290’s wide 2.5V to 10V input voltage allows direct operation from 3- to 4-cell NiCad/NiMH/Alkaline batteries, 1-and 2-cell Li-Ion batteries, as well as fixed 3.3V and 5V systems. The MIC2290 is available in a low-profile 2mm×2mm 8-pin MLF® leadless package and operates from a junction temperature range of –40°C to +125°C.

MIC2290 Functional Diagram VIN FB OUT EN OVP SW PWM Generator gm VREF 1.24V S 1.2MHz Oscillator Ramp Generator CA GND Figure 1. MIC2290 Block Diagram The gm error amplifier measures the feedback voltage through the external feedback resistors and amplifies the error between the detected signal and the 1.24V reference voltage. The output of the gm error amplifier provides the voltage-loop signal that is fed to the other input of the PWM generator. When the current-loop signal exceeds the voltage-loop signal, the PWM generator turns off the bipolar output transistor. The next clock period initiates the next switching cycle, maintaining the constant frequency current-mode PWM control. Functional Description The MIC2290 is a constant frequency, PWM current mode boost regulator. The block diagram is shown in Figure 1. The MIC2290 is composed of an oscillator, slope compensation ramp generator, current amplifier, gm error amplifier, PWM generator, and a 0.5A bipolar output transistor. The oscillator generates a 1.2MHz clock. The clock’s two functions are to trigger the PWM generator that turns on the output transistor, and to reset the slope compensation ramp generator. The current amplifier is used to measure the switch current by amplifying the voltage signal from the internal sense resistor. The output of the current amplifier is summed with the output of the slope compensation ramp generator. This summed current-loop signal is fed to one of the inputs of the PWM generator.

Application Information DC-to-DC PWM Boost Conversion The MIC2290 is a constant frequency boost converter. It operates by taking a DC input voltage and regulating a higher DC output voltage. Figure 2 shows a typical circuit. Boost regulation is achieved by turning on an internal switch, which draws current through the inductor (L1). When the switch turns off, the inductor’s magnetic field collapses, causing the current to be discharged into the output capacitor through an internal Schottky diode (D1). Voltage regulation is achieved through pulse-width modulation (PWM). L1 10µH V IN Component Selection Inductor Inductor selection is a balance between efficiency, stability, cost, size, and rated current. For most applications, a 10µH is the recommended inductor value; it is usually a good balance between these considerations. Large inductance values reduce the peak-to-peak ripple current, affecting efficiency. This has an effect of reducing both the DC losses and the transition losses. There is also a secondary effect of an inductor’s DC resistance (DCR). The DCR of an inductor will be higher for more inductance in the same package size. This is due to the longer windings required for an increase in inductance. Since the majority of input current (minus the MIC2290 operating current) is passed through the inductor, higher DCR inductors will reduce efficiency. To maintain stability, increasing inductor size will have to be met with an increase in output capacitance. This is due to the unavoidable “right half plane zero” effect for the continuous current boost converter topology. The frequency at which the right half plane zero occurs can be calculated as follows: VOUT MIC2290 VIN C1 2.2µF SW OUT EN C2 10µF FB GND GND R1 R2 GND Figure 2. Typical Application Circuit Duty Cycle Considerations Duty cycle refers to the switch on-to-off time ratio and can be calculated as follows for a boost regulator: D = 1− 2 VIN VOUT Frhpz = The right half plane zero has the undesirable effect of increasing gain, while decreasing phase. This requires that the loop gain is rolled off before this has significant effect on the total loop response. This can be accomplished by either reducing inductance (increasing RHPZ frequency) or increasing the output capacitor value (decreasing loop gain). The duty cycle required for voltage conversion should be less than the maximum duty cycle of 85%. Also, in light load conditions where the input voltage is close to the output voltage, the minimum duty cycle can cause pulse skipping. This is due to the energy stored in the inductor causing the output to overshoot slightly over the regulated output voltage. During the next cycle, the error amplifier detects the output as being high and skips the following pulse. This effect can be reduced by increasing the minimum load or by increasing the inductor value. Increasing the inductor value reduces peak current, which in turn reduces energy transfer in each cycle. Output Capacitor Output capacitor selection is also a trade-off between performance, size, and cost. Increasing output capacitance will lead to an improved transient response, but also an increase in size and cost. X5R or X7R dielectric ceramic capacitors are recommended for designs with the MIC2290. Y5V values may be used, but to offset their tolerance over temperature, more capacitance is required. The following table shows the recommended ceramic (X5R) output capacitor value vs. output voltage. Overvoltage Protection For the MLF® package option, there is an overvoltage protection function. If the feedback resistors are disconnected from the circuit or the feedback pin is shorted to ground, the feedback pin will fall to ground potential. This will cause the MIC2290 to switch at full duty cycle in an attempt to maintain the feedback voltage. As a result, the output voltage will climb out of control. This may cause the switch node voltage to exceed its maximum voltage rating, possibly damaging the IC and the external components. To ensure the highest level of protection, the MIC2290 OVP pin will shut the switch off October 2007 VOUT VIN × L × IOUT × 2π Output Voltage <6V <16V <34V Recommended Output Capacitance 22µF 10µF 4.7µF Table 1. Output Capacitor Selection 8 M9999-101907 Micrel, Inc. MIC2290 Input capacitor A minimum 1µF ceramic capacitor is recommended for designing with the MIC2290. Increasing input capacitance will improve performance and greater noise immunity on the source. The input capacitor should be as close as possible to the inductor and the MIC2290, with short traces for good noise performance. Feedback Resistors The MIC2290 utilizes a feedback pin to compare the output to an internal reference. The output voltage is adjusted by selecting the appropriate feedback resistor network values. The R2 resistor value must be less than or equal to 5kΩ (R2 ≤ 5kΩ). The desired output voltage can be calculated as follows: ⎛ R1 ⎞ VOUT = VREF × ⎜ + 1⎟ ⎝ R2 ⎠ where VREF is equal to 1.24V.
