SYSTEM MANAGEMENT
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
ing and sequence. The ACT8342 asserts nIRQ low
when nMSTR is asserted low, providing a simple
means of alerting the system processor when the
user wishes to shut the system down. Asserting
nIRQ interrupts the system processor, initiating an
interrupt service routine in the processor which will
reveal that the user pressed the push-button. The
microprocessor may validate the input, such as by
ensuring that the push-button is asserted for a minimum amount of time, then initiates a softwarecontrolled power-down routine, the final step of
which is to de-assert the ON1 input, disabling
REG1 and REG2 and shutting the system down.
General Description
The ACT8342 offers an array of system management functions that allow it to provide optimal performance in a wide range of applications.
System Startup and Shutdown
The ACT8342 features a flexible control architecture that supports a variety of software-controlled
enable/disable functions that make it a simple yet
flexible and highly configurable solution.
The ACT8342 is automatically enabled when any of
the following conditions exists:
nMSTR Enable Input
1) nMSTR is asserted low, or
In most applications, connect nMSTR to an active
low, momentary push-button switch to utilize the
ACT8342’s closed-loop enable/disable functionality.
If a momentary-on switch is not used, drive nMSTR
to GA or to a logic low to initiate a startup sequence.
2) ON1 is asserted high, or
3) ON2 is asserted high, or
4) ON3 is asserted high.
If any of these conditions is true, the ACT8342 enables and ON1 drives REG1, ON2 drives REG2,
and ON3 drives REG3.
Enable/Disable Inputs
The ACT8342 provides three manual enable/disable inputs. When driven high, ON1 enables
REG1, ON2 enables REG2, and ON3 enables
OUT3.
Manual Enable Due to Asserting nMSTR Low
System startup is initiated when the user presses
the push-button, asserting nMSTR low. When this
occurs, REG1 is enabled, which in turn enables the
processor to allow it to control the system power up
sequence. Once the power-up routine is successfully completed, the microprocessor must assert
ON1 so that the ACT8342 remains enabled after
the push-button is released by the user. Upon completion of the start-up sequence the processor assumes control of the power system and all further
operation is software-controlled.
The ACT8342 provides an active-low, open-drain
push-button status output that sinks current when
nMSTR is driven to a logic-low. Connect a pull-up
resistor from nIRQ to an appropriate voltage supply.
nIRQ is typically used to drive the interrupt input of
the system processor, and is useful in a variety of
software-controlled enable/disable control routines.
Manual Enable Due to Asserting ON1 High
Thermal Shutdown
The ACT8342 is compatible with applications that
do not utilize it’s push-button control function, and
may be enabled by simply driving ON1 to a logichigh. In this case, the signal driving ON1 controls
enable/disable timing, although software-controlled
enable/disable sequences are still supported if the
processor assumes control of the power system
once the startup sequence is completed.
The ACT8342 integrates thermal shutdown protection circuitry to prevent damage resulting from excessive thermal stress, as may be encountered under fault conditions. This circuitry disables all regulators if the ACT8342 die temperature exceeds
160°C, and prevents the regulators from being enabled until the IC temperature drops by 20°C (typ).
nIRQ Output
Shutdown Sequence
Once a successful power-up routine is completed,
the system processor controls the operation of the
power system, including the system shutdown timInnovative PowerTM

STEP-DOWN DC/DC CONVERTER
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
General Description
Input Capacitor Selection
REG1 is a fixed-frequency, current-mode, synchronous PWM step-down converters that achieves a
peak efficiency of up to 97%. REG1 is capable of
supplying up to 350mA of output current and operates with a fixed frequency of 1.6MHz, minimizing
noise in sensitive applications and allowing the use
of small external components. REG1 is available
with a variety of standard and custom output voltages, as well as an adjustable output voltage option.
The input capacitor reduces peak currents and
noise induced upon the voltage source. A 2.2µF
ceramic input capacitor is recommended for most
applications.
100% Duty Cycle Operation
REG1 is capable of operating at up to 100% duty
cycle. During 100% duty-cycle operation, the
high-side power MOSFET is held on continuously,
providing a direct connection from the input to the
output (through the inductor), ensuring the lowest
possible dropout voltage in battery-powered applications.
Synchronous Rectification
REG1 features an integrated n-channel synchronous rectifier, which maximizes efficiency and minimizes the total solution size and cost by eliminating
the need for an external rectifier.
Enabling and Disabling REG1
REG1 is enabled or disabled using ON1. Drive ON1
to a logic-high to enable REG1. Drive ON1 to a
logic-low to disable REG1, reducing supply current
to less than 1µA
Soft-Start
REG1 includes internal soft-start circuitry, and enabled its output voltage tracks an internal 80µs softstart ramp so that it powers up in a monotonic manner that is independent of loading.
Compensation
REG1 utilizes current-mode control and a proprietary internal compensation scheme to simultaneously simplify external component selection and
optimize transient performance over its full operating range. No compensation design is required,
simply follow a few simple guidelines described below when choosing external components.
Innovative PowerTM
ActivePMUTM is a trademark of Active-Semi.
Output Capacitor Selection
For most applications, a 10µF ceramic output capacitor is recommended. Although REG1 was designed to take advantage of the benefits of ceramic
capacitors, namely small size and very-low ESR,
low-ESR tantalum capacitors can provide acceptable results as well.
Inductor Selection
REG1 utilizes current-mode control and a proprietary internal compensation scheme to simultaneously simplify external component selection and
optimize transient performance over its full operating range. REG1 was optimized for operation with a
3.3µH inductor, although inductors in the 2.2µH to
4.7µH range can be used. Choose an inductor with
a low DC-resistance, and avoid inductor saturation
by choosing inductors with DC ratings that exceed
the maximum output current of the application by at
least 30%.
Thermal Shutdown
The ACT8342 integrates thermal shutdown protection circuitry to prevent damage resulting from excessive thermal stress, as may be encountered under fault conditions. This circuitry disables all regulators if the ACT8342 die temperature exceeds
160°C, and prevents the regulators from being enabled until the IC temperature drops by 20°C (typ).
Output Voltage Programming
Figure 4 shows the feedback network necessary to
set the output voltage when using the adjustable
output voltage option. Select components as follows: Set RFB2 = 51KΩ, then calculate RFB1 using
the following equation:
⎛V
⎞
RFB1 = RFB2 ⎜⎜ OUT1 − 1 ⎟⎟
⎝ VFB1
⎠

where RFB1 = 47kΩ, use 47pF.
PCB Layout Considerations
High switching frequencies and large peak currents
make PC board layout an important part of stepdown DC/DC converter design. A good design minimizes excessive EMI on the feedback paths and
voltage gradients in the ground plane, both of which
can result in instability or regulation errors. Stepdown DC/DCs exhibit discontinuous input current,
so the input capacitors should be placed as close
as possible to the IC, and avoiding the use of vias if
possible. The inductor, input filter capacitor, and
output filter capacitor should be connected as close
together as possible, with short, direct, and wide
traces. The ground nodes for each regulator's
power loops should be connected at a single point
in a star-ground configuration, and this point should
be connected to the backside ground plane with
multiple vias. For fixed output voltage options, connect the output node directly to the FB1 pin. For
adjustable output voltage options, connect the feedback resistors and feed-forward capacitor to the
FB1 pin through the shortest possible route. In both
cases, the feedback path should be routed to maintain sufficient distance from switching nodes to prevent noise injection. Finally, the exposed pad
should be directly connected to the backside
ground plane using multiple vias to achieve low
electrical and thermal resistance.

LOW-DROPOUT LINEAR REGULATORS
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
General Description
REG2 and REG3 are low-noise, low-dropout linear
regulators (LDOs) that are optimized for low-noise
and high-PSRR operation, achieving more than
60dB PSRR at frequencies up to 10kHz.
Output Current Capability
REG2 supplies up to 80mA while REG3 supplies up
to 150mA of load current. Excellent performance is
achieved over each regulator's entire load current
ranges.
careful layout is necessary to prevent other circuitry
from degrading LDO performance.
A good design places input and output capacitors
as close to the LDO inputs and output as possible,
and utilizes a star-ground configuration for all regulators to prevent noise-coupling through ground.
Output traces should be routed to avoid close proximity to noisy nodes, particularly the SW nodes of
the DC/DCs.
Output Current Limit
In order to ensure safe operation under over-load
conditions, each LDO features current-limit circuitry
with current fold-back. The current-limit circuitry
limits the current that can be drawn from the output,
providing protection in over-load conditions. For
additional protection under extreme over current
conditions, current-fold-back protection reduces the
current-limit by approximately 30% under extreme
overload conditions.
Enabling and Disabling the LDOs
REG2 and REG3 is enabled or disabled using ON2
and ON3. Drive ON2 and ON3 to a logic-high to
enable REG2 and REG3. Drive ON2 and ON3 to a
logic-low to disable REG2 and REG3, reducing
supply current to less than 1µA.
Output Capacitor Selection
REG2 and REG3 each require only a small ceramic
capacitor for stability. For best performance, each
output capacitor should be connected directly between the OUT2 and OUT3 and G pins as possible,
with a short and direct connection. To ensure best
performance for the device, the output capacitor
should have a minimum capacitance of 1µF, and
ESR value between 10mΩ and 200mΩ. High quality
ceramic capacitors such as X7R and X5R dielectric
types are strongly recommended.
PCB Layout Considerations
The ACT8342’s LDOs provide good DC, AC, and
noise performance over a wide range of operating
conditions, and are relatively insensitive to layout
considerations. When designing a PCB, however,
