The nominal input voltage range is 2.5-5.0V. The output can be set to common voltages by connecting appropriate combinations of 3 voltage selection pins to ground. If different voltage levels are required, provision is also made to allow external programming. The feedback control loop is voltage-mode and the part uses a low-noise PWM topology. Up to 1A of output current can be drawn from this converter. The 5MHz operating frequency enables the use of small-size output capacitors. The power supply also has protection features such as: • Programmable over-current protection (to protect the IC from excessive load current) • Thermal shutdown (to protect the converter from getting too hot) • Over-voltage protection that stops the PWM switching and turns on the lower N-MOSFET at 120% of the programmed output voltage in order to protect the load from an OV condition. • Under-voltage lockout circuit to disable the converter output when the input voltage is less than approximately 2.2V Use an appropriate resistor ratio such that the desired output voltage across the resistor pair causes the XFB pin to be 0.8V at the nominal set-point. It is recommended that the resistor values used should be in the 20K-40K range. Contact Enpirion Applications Support for more specific information. If OverVoltage protection is required, the output of a second divider to XOV should be set such that 0.96V is present at the desired trip point. By design, if both resistor dividers are the same, the OV trip-point will be 20% above the nominal output voltage. VIN • Soft-start circuit, limiting the in-rush current when the converter is powered up. Power good circuit indicating whether the output voltage is within 90%-120% of the programmed voltage. Output Voltage Programming The EN5310 output voltage is programmed using one of two methods. Common output voltages are achieved by tying one or more of the three Voltage Select pins (VS0, VS1 & VS2) to ground (see Table 1). If all three are left floating, the output voltage and over voltage thresholds are determined by the voltages presented at the XFB and XOV pins respectively. These voltages should be set by way of resistor dividers between VOUT to GND with the midpoint going to XFB and XOV.

Only connect these pins to AGND if a ‘0’ is required. If a ‘1’ is required, then leave the pin floating. Capacitor Selection The EN5310 needs about 10-20uF of input capacitance. Low-cost, low-ESR ceramic capacitors can be used as input capacitors for this converter and it is strongly recommended that they be rated X5R or X7R. In some applications, lower value capacitors are needed in parallel with the larger, lossy capacitors in order to provide high frequency decoupling. 6 www.enpirion.com EN5310 Rev 0.95 – March 2005 The EN5310 has been optimized for use with about 20µF of ceramic output capacitance. It is strongly recommended that these be low-cost, low-ESR, ceramic capacitors rated X5R or X7R. (See the Enpirion application note on ripple comparison for optimum selection of number and value of these capacitors based on ripple requirements.) In order to eliminate high-frequency switching spikes on the output ripple, usually a low-value, low-ESR ceramic capacitor is used in parallel with the larger capacitors right at the load. Enable Operation The ENABLE pin provides a means to shut down the power FET switching or enable normal operation. A logic low will disable the converter and cause it to shut down. A logic high will enable the converter into normal operation. Soft-Start Operation The SS pin in conjunction with a small capacitor between this pin and AGND provides the soft start function to limit the in-rush current during start-up. During start-up of the converter the reference voltage to the error amplifier is gradually increased to its final level by an internal current source of typically 10uA. The whole soft-start procedure is designed to take 1ms - 3ms with a 15-30nF soft start capacitor, but can be programmed by capacitor selection using the following equation: Rise Time: TR = Css*80k POK Operation The POK signal is an open drain signal from the converter indicating the output voltage is within the specified range. The POK signal will be a logic high when the output voltage is within 90% - 120% of the programmed output voltage. If the output voltage goes outside of this range, the POK signal will be a logic low until the output voltage has returned to within this range. In the event of an over-voltage condition the POK signal will go low and will remain in this condition until the output voltage has dropped to 95% of the programmed output voltage before returning to the high state (see also Over Voltage Protection) Over-Current Protection The cycle-by-cycle current limit function is achieved by sensing the current flowing through the sense PMOSFET and a signal generated by a differential amplifier with a preset over-current threshold. During a particular cycle, if the over-current threshold is exceeded, the power P-MOSFET is turned off and the power N-MOSFET is turned on to protect the PMOSFET. If the over-current condition is removed, the over-current protection circuit will enable the PWM operation. If the over-current condition persists, the converter will eventually go through a full softstart cycle. This circuit is designed to provide high noise immunity. It is possible to adjust the over-current set point by connecting a resistor between ROCP and GND (increase the trip point) or PVIN (decrease the trip point). The voltage at the ROCP pin is designed to be 0.8V. (see application note for details) Over-Voltage Protection When the output voltage exceeds 120% of the programmed output voltage, the PWM operation stops, the lower N-MOSFET is turned on and the POK signal goes low. When the output voltage drops below 95% of the programmed output voltage, normal PWM operation resumes and POK returns to its high state. Thermal Overload Protection Thermal shutdown will disable operation once the Junction temperature exceeds approximately 160ºC. Once the junction temperature drops by approx 25ºC, the converter will re-start with a normal soft-start. Low Input Voltage Operation Circuitry is provided to ensure that when the input voltage is below the specified voltage range, the operation of the converter is controlled and predictable. Circuits for hysteresis, input de-glitch and output leading edge blanking are included to ensure high noise immunity and prevent false tripping. Compensation The EN5310 is internally compensated through the use of a type 3 compensation network and is optimized for use with about 20µF of output capacitance and will provide excellent loop bandwidth and transient performance for most applications. (See 7 www.enpirion.com EN5310 Rev 0.95 – March 2005 the section on Capacitor Selection for details on recommended capacitor types.) In some cases modifications to the compensation may be required. For more information, contact Enpirion Applications Engineering support. Layout Considerations The EN5310 Layout Guidelines application note provides more details on specific layout recommendations for this part. The following are general layout guidelines to consider. The CMOS chip inside the EN5310 has two grounds: AGND for the controller, and PGND for the power stage. These two grounds need to be connected outside the package at one point through a lowimpedance trace. The connection should be made such that the impedance between the connection point and the AGND pad on the package is minimized. Since the internal voltage sensing circuit is based on AGND, the connection of the two grounds should also be made such that the best voltage regulation can be achieved. The soft-start capacitor, the voltage programming resistors, and any other external control component should be tied to AGND. The placement of the input decoupling capacitors between PVIN and PGND is very critical. These components should be placed such that they have the lowest inductance traces to PVIN and PGND. There are two thermal pads underneath the device. The centrally located pad is PGND, and, depending on the number of layers of the PC board, it needs to be connected to a thermal plane in order to conduct heat away from the device. Note that if any of the thermal planes is also connected to AGND, the impedance between this point and the GND connection of the load needs to be minimized in order to get the best possible load regulation. The pad opposite the VOUT pins is connected to VOUT. This VOUT pad should be connected to a top layer copper area as large as possible to conduct more heat away from the package. This will also help minimize the trace length to the output filter caps. Pin 19 is a connected to a noisy internal node and is brought out for test purposes only. Keep all sensitive signal traces as far as possible from this pin. Ideally, on the top layer there should be no traces or vias underneath the package between this pin and the VOUT thermal pad. 8 www.enpirion.com EN5310 Rev 0.95 – March 2005 Packaging Information Mechanical Drawing and Nominal Dimensions Bottom View 9 www.enpirion.com EN5310 Rev 0.95 – March 2005 Landing Pad Information The Enpirion iPOWERTM DFN package is footprint compatible with the JEDEC standard 36-pin TSSOP package code DD.
