Operation explanation 9.1 Power-saving feature This IC has power-saving feature to enhance efficiency at light load. By shutting down unnecessary circuits, operating current of the IC is minimized and high efficiency is realized. 9.2 Output voltage setting The output voltage is set by resistor R4 (Between VOUT and FB) and resistor R5 (Between FB and GND). The output voltage is determined by the following expression (1). R4 R4 VOUT = (1 + R5 ) VREF = (1 + R5 ) 1.26 [V] (1) ex) The resistor that sets the output voltage to 5V are R4=470k and R5=160k. 470×103 VOUT = (1 + 160×103 ) 1.26 = 4.96 [V] (2) 9.4 Soft start setting Soft start time (TSS) is set with the capacitor C7 (Between SS and GND). TSS is determined by the following expression (3). VREF 1.26 TSS = C7 I = C7 [s] (3) 2.0 10-6 SS ex) Where C7=2200pF, TSS is 1.38ms. 1.26 TSS = 2200 10-12 = 1.386 [ms] (4) 2.0 10-6 Graph1. R7 vs FOSC 2500 2000 FOSC [kHz] 9.3 Switching frequency setting The switching frequency (FOSC) is set by resistor R7 (Between RT and GND). The relation of resistor R7 with FOSC is shown in Graph 1. And please set FOSC taking the minimum on-time =100ns into consideration. ex) Where R7=390kΩ, FOSC is 400kHz. 1500 1000 500 0 10 100 R7 [kΩ] 1000 9.5 Overcurrent protection setting When the RSNS pin exceeds the overcurrent limit value for 15 cycles of the oscillatory frequency, the overcurrent protection detects the overcurrent state, and stops the IC. Overcurrent detection voltage (VLIM) is determined by the resistor R2 (between VIN and ILIM) and the reference current (ILIM1). The overcurrent detection voltage (VLIM) is determined by the following expression. VLIM = R2 ILIM1 [V] (5) ex) Where R2=2.7kΩ, ILIM1=55uA, VILIM is 0.1485V. VLIM = 2.7 103 55 10-6 = 0.1485 [V] (6) When the current sensing resistor R1 is 30mΩ, the value of the overcurrent is 4.95A. You can select R1 from 20m to 100m according to the above-mentioned figure which shows the relationship between RSNS and pulse width. 9.6 Hiccup Setting The stop time of the overcurrent protection is determined by the capacitor (C8). IC restarts when the C-HICCUP pin exceeds 1.26V. C8 VtHIC C8 1.26 THIC = = [s] (7) IHIC 2.0 10-6 ex) Where C8=22000pF, THIC is 13.86msec. THIC = 22000 10-12 1.26 = 13.86[ms] 2.0 10-6 (8) 9.7 Power good function The Output voltage is observed with the voltage of the FB pin. The PG pin turns “Low” when the voltage of FB pin is about 1.05V or less. Because the PG pin is open-drain, the PG pin can be Wired-OR. 11 / 21 LV5061V Fig. Timing chart: Hiccup overcurrent protection / Power good function 9.8 Leading edge blanking time LV5061V has the leading edge blanking time whose design value is 30ns. 12 / 21 LV5061V 10.

Selection of main parts 11.1 Choke coil When conditions for input voltage, output voltage and ripple current are defined, the following equation (9) gives inductance value. Make sure to set ripple current (∆IR) to be lower than 20% of the output current. L = VIN-VOUT Ton ∆IR Ton = 1 {((VIN - VOUT) (VOUT + VF)) + 1} FOSC FOSC VF VIN VOUT : Oscillatory Frequency : Forward voltage of Schottky Barrier diode : Input voltage : Output voltage (9) ・Inductor current: Peak value (IRP) Current peak value (IRP) of the inductor is given by the equation (10). VIN-VOUT IRP = Iout + Ton (10) 2L Make sure that rating current value of the inductor is higher than a peak value of ripple current. ・Inductor current: ripple current (∆IR) Ripple current (∆IR) is given by the equation (11). VIN-VOUT Ton (11) ΔIR = L When load current (Iout) is less than 1/2 of the ripple current, inductor current flows discontinuously. 11.2 Output capacitor Make sure to use a capacitor with high frequency impedance for switching power supply because a large ripple current flows through output capacitor. Effective value is given by the equation (12) because the ripple current (AC) that flows through output capacitor is sawtooth wave. VOUT (VIN - VOUT) 1 IC_OUT = [Arms] (12) 23 L FOSC VIN 11.3 Input capacitor Ripple current flows through input capacitor which is higher than that of the output capacitors. Therefore, caution is also required for allowable ripple current value. The effective value of the ripple current which flows through input capacitor is given by the equation (13). IC_IN = D (1 - D) IOUT [Arms] (13) TON VOUT D= T = V IN In (13), D signifies the ratio between ON/OFF period. When the value is 0.5, the ripple current is at a maximum. Make sure that the input capacitor does not exceed the allowable ripple current value given by (13). With (13), if VIN=12V, VOUT=5V and IOUT=3.0A, then IC_IN value is about 1.48Arms. In the board wiring from input capacitor, VIN to GND, make sure that wiring is wide enough to keep impedance low because of the current fluctuation. Make sure to connect input capacitor near output capacitor to lower voltage bound due to regeneration current. When change of load current is excessive (IOUT: high low), the power of output electric capacitor is regenerated to input capacitor. If input capacitor is small, input voltage increases. Therefore, you need to implement a large input capacitor. Regeneration power changes according to the change of output voltage, inductance of a coil and load current. 18 / 21 LV5061V 11.4 Selection of external phase compensation component This IC adopts current mode control which allows use of ceramic capacitor with low ESR and solid polymer capacitor such as OS capacitor for output capacitor with simple phase compensation. Therefore, you can design long-life and high quality step-down power supply circuit easily. Frequency Characteristics The frequency characteristic of this IC is constituted with the following transfer functions. (1) Output resistance breeder (2) Voltage gain of error amplifier Current gain (3) Impedance of phase compensation external element (4) Current sense loop gain (5) Output smoothing impedance : HR : GVEA : GMEA : ZC : GCS : ZO Figure: Compensation networks Closed loop gain is obtained with the following formula (14). G H R G MER Z C G CS Z O VREF G MER VOUT RL 1 G CS R C sC C 1 sC O R L (14) Frequency characteristics of the closed loop gain is given by pole fp1 consists of output capacitor CO and output load resistance RL, zero point fz consists of external capacitor CC of the phase compensation and resistance RC, and pole fp2 consists of output impedance ZER of error amplifier and external capacitor of phase compensation CC as shown in formula (14). fp1, fz, fp2 are obtained with the following equations (15) to (17). 1 2 C O RL 1 fz 2 CC R C 1 fp2 2 ZER CC fp1 (15) (16) (17) 19 / 21 LV5061V Calculation of external phase compensation constant Generally, to stabilize switching regulator, the frequency where closed loop gain is 1 (zero-cross frequency fZC) 1 1 of the switching frequency (or ). Since the switching frequency of this IC is 400 kHz, the should be 10 5 zero-cross frequency should be 40 kHz. Based on the above condition, we obtain the following formula (18). VREF RL 1 G CS GMER R C 1 VOUT sC C 1 sC O R L (18) As for zero-cross frequency, since the impedance element of phase compensation is RC 1 , the following sCC equation (19) is obtained. VREF RL GMER R C G CS 1 VOUT 1 2 f ZC C O R L (19) Phase compensation external resistance can be obtained with the following formula (20), the variation of the formula (19). Since 2 fZC CO RL 1 in the equation (20), we know that the external resistance is independent of load resistance. RC VOUT 1 1 1 2 f ZC C O R L VREF GMER GCS RL (20) When output is 5V and load resistance is 5Ω (1A load), the resistances of phase compensation are as follows. GCS = 4.1A/V, GMER = 250uA/V, fZC = 40kHz RC 5 1 1 1 2 3.14 40 10 3 30 10 6 5 29.964... 10 3 1.26 250 10 6 4.1 5 30 [k] If frequency of zero point fz and pole fp1 are in the same position, they cancel out each other. Therefore, only the pole frequency remains for frequency characteristics of the closed loop gain. In other words, gain decreases at -20dB/dec and phase only rotates by 90º and this allows characteristics where oscillation never occurs. fp1 fz 1 1 2 CO RL 2 CC RC CC RL CO 5 30 10 6 5.172... 10 9 3 RC 30 10 5 .2 [ nF ] The above shows external compensation constant obtained through ideal equations. In reality, we need to define phase constant through testing to verify constant IC operation at all temperature range, load range and input voltage range. In the evaluation board for delivery, phase compensation constants are defined based on the above constants. The zero-cross frequency required in the actual system board, in other word, transient response is adjusted by external compensation resistance. Also, if the influence of noise is significant, use of external phase compensation capacitor with higher value is recommended. The table of compensation values for 400 kHz is provided below.
