Buck Controller In normal operation, the high-side N-MOSFET is turned on when the output is lower than VREF, and is turned off after the internal one-shot timer expires. While the highside N-MOSFET is turned off, the low-side N-MOSFET is turned on to conduct the inductor current until next cycle begins. Over-Voltage Protection (OVP) and Under-Voltage Protection (UVP) The two channel output voltages are continuously monitored for over-voltage and under-voltage conditions. When the output voltage exceeds over-voltage threshold (113% of VOUT), UGATE goes low and LGATE is forced high; when it is less than 52% of reference voltage, undervoltage protection is triggered and then both UGATE and LGATE gate drivers are forced low. The controller is latched until ENx is reset or LDO5 is re-supplied. LDO5 and LDO3 Soft-Start For internal soft-start function, an internal current source charges an internal capacitor to build the soft-start ramp voltage. The output voltage will track the internal ramp voltage during soft-start interval. When the VIN voltage exceeds the POR rising threshold, LDO3 will default turn-on. The LDO5 can be power on by ENx. The linear regulator LDO5 and LDO3 provide 5V and 3.3V regulated output. Switching Over PGOOD The power good output is an open-drain architecture. When the two channels soft-start are both finished, the PGOOD open-drain output will be high impedance. The BYP1 is connected to the Channel 1 output. After the Channel 1 output voltage exceeds the set threshold (4.66V), the output will be bypassed to the LDO5 output to maximize the efficiency. Current Limit The current limit circuit employs a unique “valley” current sensing algorithm. If the magnitude of the current sense signal at PHASE is above the current limit threshold, the PWM is not allowed to initiate a new cycle. Thus, the current to the load exceeds the average output inductor current, the output voltage falls and eventually crosses the under-voltage protection threshold, inducing IC shutdown.

DS6585A/B-04 January 2016 RT6585A/B Application Information The RT6585A/B is a dual-channel, low quiescent, Mach ResponseTM DRVTM mode synchronous Buck controller targeted for Ultrabook system power supply solutions. Richtek's Mach ResponseTM technology provides fast response to load steps. The topology solves the poor load transient response timing problems of fixed frequency current mode PWMs, and avoids the problems caused by widely varying switching frequencies in CCR (constant current ripple) constant on-time and constant off-time PWM schemes. A special adaptive on-time control trades off the performance and efficiency over wide input voltage range. The RT6585A/B includes 5V (LDO5) and 3.3V (LDO3) linear regulators. The LDO5 linear regulator steps down the battery voltage to supply both internal circuitry and gate drivers. The synchronous switch gate drivers are directly powered by LDO5. When VOUT1 rises above 4.66V, an automatic circuit disconnects the linear regulator and allows the device to be powered by VOUT1 via the BYP1 pin. on-time is inversely proportional to the input voltage as measured by VIN and proportional to the output voltage. The inductor ripple current operating point remains relatively constant, resulting in easy design methodology and predictable output voltage ripple. The frequency of 3V output controller is set higher than the frequency of 5V output controller. This is done to prevent audio frequency “ beating” between the two sides, which switch asynchronously for each side. The RT6585A/B adaptively changes the operation frequency according to the input voltage. Higher input voltage usually comes from an external adapter, so the RT6585A/B operates with higher frequency to have better performance. Lower input voltage usually comes from a battery, so the RT6585A/B operates with lower switching frequency for lower switching losses. For a specific input voltage range, the switching cycle period is given by : For 5V VOUT, Period (usec.) = PWM Operation The Mach ResponseTM DRVTM mode controller relies on the output filter capacitor's Effective Series Resistance (ESR) to act as a current sense resistor, so that the output ripple voltage provides the PWM ramp signal. Referring to the RT6585A/B's Function Block Diagram, the synchronous high-side MOSFET is turned on at the beginning of each cycle. After the internal one-shot timer expires, the MOSFET will be turned off. The pulse width of this one-shot is determined by the converter's input output voltages to keep the frequency fairly constant over the entire input voltage range. Another one-shot sets a minimum off-time (200ns typ.). The on-time one-shot will be triggered if the error comparator is high, the low-side switch current is below the current limit threshold, and the minimum off-time one-shot has timed out. PWM Frequency and On-time Control For each specific input voltage range, the Mach ResponseTM control architecture runs with pseudo constant frequency by feed forwarding the input and output voltage into the on-time one-shot timer.

The on-time guaranteed in the Electrical Characteristics table is influenced by switching delays in the external high-side power MOSFET. Diode Emulation Mode In diode emulation mode, the RT6585A/B automatically reduces switching frequency at light load conditions to maintain high efficiency. This reduction of frequency is achieved smoothly. As the output current decreases from heavy load condition, the inductor current is also reduced, and eventually comes to the point that its current valley touches zero, which is the boundary between continuous conduction and discontinuous conduction modes. To emulate the behavior of diodes, the low-side MOSFET allows only partial negative current to flow when the inductor free wheeling current becomes negative. As the load current is further decreased, it takes longer and longer is a registered trademark of Richtek Technology Corporation. www.richtek.com 13 RT6585A/B time to discharge the output capacitor to the level that requires the next “ON” cycle. The on-time is kept the same as that in the heavy load condition. In reverse, when the output current increases from light load to heavy load, the switching frequency increases to the preset value as the inductor current reaches the continuous conduction. The transition load point to the light load operation is shown in Figure 1. and can be calculated as follows : IL Slope = (VIN - VOUT) / L IPEAK ILOAD = IPEAK / 2 Current Limit Setting The RT6585A/B has cycle-by-cycle current limit control and the OCP function only operation at CCM , it is disabled at DEM in order to reduce quiescent current. The current limit circuit employs a unique “valley” current sensing algorithm. If the magnitude of the current sense signal at PHASEx is above the current limit threshold, the PWM is not allowed to initiate a new cycle (Figure 2). The actual peak current is greater than the current limit threshold by an amount equal to the inductor ripple current. Therefore, the exact current limit characteristic and maximum load capability are a function of the sense resistance, inductor value, battery and output voltage. IL 0 IPEAK t tON ILOAD Figure 1. Boundary Condition of CCM/DEM ILIMIT (VIN VOUT ) tON 2L where tON is the on-time. ILOAD(SKIP) The switching waveforms may appear noisy and asynchronous when light load causes diode emulation operation. This is normal and results in high efficiency. Trade offs in PFM noise vs. light load efficiency is made by varying the inductor value. Generally, low inductor values produce a broader efficiency vs. load curve, while higher values result in higher full load efficiency (assuming that the coil resistance remains fixed) and less output voltage ripple. Penalties for using higher inductor values include larger physical size and degraded load transient response (especially at low input voltage levels). Linear Regulators (LDOx) The RT6585A/B includes 5V (LDO5) and 3.3V (LDO3) linear regulators. The regulators can supply up to 100mA for external loads. Bypass LDOx with 1μF (min) to 4.7μF (max), and the recommended value is 1μF ceramic capacitor. When VOUT1 is higher than the switch over threshold (4.66V), an internal 1.5Ω P-MOSFET switch connects BYP1 to the LDO5 pin while simultaneously disconnects the internal linear regulator.

The RILIM resistor between the CSx pin and GND sets the current limit threshold. The resistor RILIM is connected to a current source from CSx which is 50μA (typ.) at room temperature. The current source has a 4700ppm/°C temperature slope to compensate the temperature dependency of the RDS(ON). When the voltage drop across the sense resistor or low-side MOSFET equals 1/8 the voltage across the RILIM resistor, positive current limit will be activated. The high-side MOSFET will not be turned on until the voltage drop across the MOSFET falls below 1/8 the voltage across the RILIM resistor. Choose a current limit resistor according to the following equation : VLIMIT = (RLIMIT x 50μA) / 8 = ILIMIT x RDS(ON) RLIMIT = (ILIMIT x RDS(ON)) x 8 / 50μA is a registered trademark of Richtek Technology Corporation. DS6585A/B-04 January 2016 RT6585A/B Carefully observe the PC board layout guidelines to ensure that noise and DC errors do not corrupt the current sense signal at PHASEx and GND. Mount or place the IC close to the low-side MOSFET. VCLK for Charge Pump A 260kHz VCLK signal can be used for the external charge pump circuit. The VCLK signal becomes available when EN1 enters ON state. VCLK driver circuit is driven by BYP1 voltage. In a design that does not require VCLK output, tie 200Ω between VCLK pin and GND so that VCLK is turned off. The accuracy of VCLK disable resistor is recommended less than 5%. The external 14V charge pump is driven by VCLK. As shown in Figure 3, when VCLK is low, C1 will be charged by VOUT1 through D1. C1 voltage is equal to VOUT1 minus the diode drop. When VCLK becomes high, C1 transfers the charge to C2 through D2 and charges C2 voltage to VVCLK plus C1 voltage. As VCLK transitions low on the next cycle, C3 is charged to C2 voltage minus a diode drop through D3. Finally, C3 charges C4 through D4 when VCLK switches high. Thus, the total charge pump voltage, VCP, is : where VVCLK is the peak voltage of the VCLK driver which is equal to LDO5 and VD is the forward voltage dropped across the Schottky diode. VCLK C3 VOUT1 Charge Pump D1 D2 D3 C2 The low-side driver is designed to drive high current low RDS(ON) N-MOSFET(s). The internal pull down transistor that drives LGATEx low is robust, with a 1Ω typical onresistance. A 5V bias voltage is delivered from the LDO5 supply. The instantaneous drive current is supplied by an input capacitor connected between LDO5 and GND. For high current applications, some combinations of high and low-side MOSFETs may cause excessive gate drain coupling, which leads to efficiency killing, EMI producing, and shoot through currents. This is often remedied by adding a resistor in series with BOOTx, which increases the turn-on time of the high-side MOSFET without degrading the turn-off time. See Figure 4. VIN UGATEx BOOTx RBOOT PHASEx Figure 4. Increasing the UGATEx Rise Time VCP = VOUT1 + 2 x VVCLK − 4 x VD C1 shoot through is internally generated from high-side MOSFET off to low-side MOSFET on and low-side MOSFET off to high-side MOSFET on. D4 C4 Figure 3. Charge Pump Circuit Connected to VCLK Soft-Start The RT6585A/B provides an internal soft-start function to prevent large inrush current and output voltage overshoot when the converter starts up. The soft-start (SS) automatically begins once the chip is enabled. During softstart, it clamps the ramping of internal reference voltage which is compared with FBx signal. The typical soft-start duration is 0.9ms. An unique PWM duty limit control that prevents output over-voltage during soft-start period is designed specifically for FBx floating. MOSFET Gate Driver (UGATEx, LGATEx) UVLO Protection The high-side driver is designed to drive high current, low RDS(ON) N-MOSFET(s). When configured as a floating driver, 5V bias voltage is delivered from the LDO5 supply. The average drive current is also calculated by the gate charge at VGS = 5V times switching frequency. The instantaneous drive current is supplied by the flying capacitor between the BOOTx and PHASEx pins. A dead-time to prevent The RT6585A/B has LDO5 under-voltage lock out protection (UVLO). When the LDO5 voltage is lower than 3.9V (typ.) and the LDO3 voltage is lower than 2.5V (typ.), both switch power supplies are shut off. This is a nonlatch protection.

PGOOD is actively held low in soft-start, standby, and shutdown. For RT6585A/B, PGOOD is released when both output voltages are above 88% of nominal regulation point. The PGOOD signal goes low if either output turns off or is 20% below or 13% over its nominal regulation point. The RT6585A/B features thermal shutdown to prevent damage from excessive heat dissipation. Thermal shutdown occurs when the die temperature exceeds 150°C. All internal circuitries are turned off during thermal shutdown. The RT6585A/B triggers thermal shutdown if LDO5 is not supplied from VOUT1, while input voltage on VIN and drawing current from LDO5 are too high. Nevertheless, even if LDO5 is supplied from VOUT1, overloading LDO5 can cause large power dissipation on automatic switches, which may still result in thermal shutdown. Output Over-Voltage Protection (OVP) The output voltage can be continuously monitored for overvoltage condition. If the output voltage exceeds 13% of its set voltage threshold, the over-voltage protection is triggered and the LGATEx low-side gate drivers are forced high. This activates the low-side MOSFET switch, which rapidly discharges the output capacitor and pulls the output voltage downward. The RT6585A/B is latched once OVP is triggered and can only be released by either toggling ENx or cycling VIN. There is a 1μs delay built into the over-voltage protection circuit to prevent false transition. Note that latching LGATEx high will cause the output voltage to dip slightly negative due to previously stored energy in the LC tank circuit. For loads that cannot tolerate a negative voltage, place a power Schottky diode across the output to act as a reverse polarity clamp. If the over-voltage condition is caused by a shorted in high-side switch, turning the low-side MOSFET on 100% will create an electrical shorted circuit between the battery and GND to blow the fuse and disconnecting the battery from the output. Output Under-Voltage Protection (UVP) Discharge Mode (Soft Discharge) When ENx is low the output under-voltage fault latch is set, the output discharge mode will be triggered. During discharge mode, an internal switch creates a path for discharging the output capacitors' residual charge to GND. Standby Mode When VIN exceeds POR threshold and ENx < 0.4V, the RT6585A/B operate in standby mode, and CH1 and CH2 are OFF state. For the RT6585A, LDO5 is OFF and LDO3 is ON state and approximately consumes 17μA of input current. For the RT6585B, LDO5 and LDO3 are ON state and approximately consumes 30μA while in standby mode. Power-Up Sequencing and On/Off Controls (ENx) EN1 and EN2 control the power-up sequencing of the two channels of the Buck converter. The 0.4V falling edge threshold on ENx can be used to detect a specific analog voltage level and to shutdown the device. Once in shutdown, the 1.6V rising edge threshold activates, providing sufficient hysteresis for most applications. The output voltage can be continuously monitored for undervoltage condition. If the output is less than 52% (typ.) of its set voltage threshold, the under-voltage protection will be triggered and then both UGATEx and LGATEx gate drivers will be forced low. The UVP is ignored for at least 1.3ms (typ.) after a start-up or a rising edge on ENx. Toggle ENx or cycle VIN to reset the UVP fault latch and restart the controller.

DS6585A/B-04 January 2016 RT6585A/B Output Voltage Setting (FBx) Output Capacitor Selection Connect a resistive voltage divider at the FBx pin between VOUTx and GND to adjust the output voltage from 2V to 5.5V for CH1 and 2V to 4V for CH2, as shown in Figure 7. The recommended R2 is between 100kΩ to 200kΩ, and solve for R1 using the equation below : R1 VOUT (valley) VFBx 1 + R2 The capacitor value and ESR determine the amount of output voltage ripple and load transient response. Thus, the capacitor value must be greater than the largest value calculated from the equations below : where VFBx is 2V (typ.).

GND Thermal Considerations Figure 7. Setting VOUTx with a resistive voltage divider Output Inductor Selection The switching frequency (on-time) and operating point (% ripple or LIR) determine the inductor value as shown below : t (VIN VOUTx ) L ON LIR ILOAD(MAX) where LIR is the ratio of the peak-to-peak ripple current to the average inductor current. Find a low-loss inductor having the lowest possible DC resistance that fits in the allotted dimensions. Ferrite cores are often the best choice, although powdered iron is inexpensive and can work well at 200kHz. The core must be large enough not to saturate at the peak inductor current, IPEAK : IPEAK = ILOAD(MAX) + [ (LIR / 2) x ILOAD(MAX) ] The calculation above shall serve as a general reference. To further improve transient response, the output inductance can be further reduced. Of course, besides the inductor, the output capacitor should also be considered when improving transient response.

The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC package, PCB layout, rate of surrounding airflow, and difference between junction and ambient temperature. The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by the following formula : PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA) / θJA where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature, TA is the ambient temperature, and θJA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance. For recommended operating condition specifications, the maximum junction temperature is 125°C. The junction to ambient thermal resistance, θJA, is layout dependent. For WQFN-20L 3x3 package, the thermal resistance, θJA, is 30°C/W on a standard JEDEC 51-7 four-layer thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C can be calculated by the following formula : P D(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (30°C/W) = 3.33W for WQFN-20L 3x3 package is a registered trademark of Richtek Technology Corporation. www.richtek.com 19 RT6585A/B Maximum Power Dissipation (W)1 The maximum power dissipation depends on the operating ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal resistance, θJA. The derating curve in Figure 8 allows the designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature on the maximum power dissipation. 4.0 Layout Considerations Layout is very important in high frequency switching converter design. Improper PCB layout can radiate excessive noise and contribute to the converter’s instability. Certain points must be considered before starting a layout with the RT6585A/B. Four-Layer PCB 3.5 Place the filter capacitor close to the IC, within 12mm (0.5 inch) if possible. Keep current limit setting network as close as possible to the IC. Routing of the network should avoid coupling to high-voltage switching node. Connections from the drivers to the respective gate of the high-side or the low-side MOSFET should be as short as possible to reduce stray inductance. Use 0.65mm (25 mils) or wider trace. All sensitive analog traces and components such as FBx, PGOOD, and should be placed away from high voltage switching nodes such as PHASEx, LGATEx, UGATEx, or BOOTx nodes to avoid coupling. Use internal layer(s) as ground plane(s) and shield the feedback trace from power traces and components. Place ground terminal of VIN capacitor(s), V OUTx capacitor(s), and Source of low-side MOSFETs as close to each other as possible. The PCB trace of PHASEx node, which connects to Source of high-side MOSFET, Drain of low-side MOSFET and high voltage side of the inductor, should be as short and wide as possible. 3.0 2.5 2.0 1.5 1.0 0.5 0.0 0 25 50 75 100 125 Ambient Temperature (°C) Figure 8.
