The regulator automatically switches modes between PFM and PWM depending on load. At heavy load, the device operates in PWM at a constant switching frequency. At light loads the mode changes to PFM, with diode emulation allowing DCM. This reduces the input supply current and keeps efficiency high. The device features internal loop compensation which reduces design time and requires fewer external components than externally compensated regulators. 8.2 Functional Block Diagram VIN VCC INT. REG.

ERROR AMPLIFIER FB + - + - PG CONTROL LOGIC PFM MODE CONTROL SW DRIVER LS CURRENT SENSE POWER GOOD CONTROL AGND PGND Copyright © 2017, Texas Instruments Incorporated 8.3 Feature Description 8.3.1 Power-Good Flag Output The power-good flag function (PG output pin) of the LMR33620 can be used to reset a system microprocessor whenever the output voltage is out of regulation. This open-drain output goes low under fault conditions, such as current limit and thermal shutdown, as well as during normal start-up. A glitch filter prevents false flag operation for short excursions of the output voltage, such as during line and load transients. The timing parameters of the glitch filter are found in the Electrical Characteristics table. Output voltage excursions lasting less than tPG do not trip the power-good flag. Power-good operation can best be understood by reference to Figure 7 and Figure 8. Note that during initial power-up a delay of about 4 ms (typical) is inserted from the time that EN is asserted to the time that the power-good flag goes high. This delay only occurs during start-up and is not encountered during normal operation of the power-good function. Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2018, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMR33620 9 LMR33620 SNVSAW1 – FEBRUARY 2018 www.ti.com Feature Description (continued) The power-good output consists of an open drain NMOS; requiring an external pull up resistor to a suitable logic supply. It can also be pulled up to either VCC or VOUT, through an appropriate resistor, as desired. If this function is not needed, the PG pin should be grounded. When EN is pulled low, the flag output is also forced low. With EN low, power good remains valid as long as the input voltage is ≥ 2 V (typical). Limit the current into the powergood flag pin to 4 mA D.C. The maximum current is internally limited to about 35 mA when the device is enabled and about 65 mA when the device is disabled. The internal current limit protects the device from any transient currents that may occur when discharging a filter capacitor connected to this output.

Power-Good-Timing Behavior 8.3.2 Enable and Start-up Start-up and shutdown are controlled by the EN input. This input features precision thresholds, allowing the use of an external voltage divider to provide an adjustable input UVLO (see the External UVLO section). Applying a voltage of ≥ VEN-VCC_H causes the device to enter standby mode, powering the internal VCC, but not producing an output voltage. Increasing the EN voltage to VEN-H fully enables the device, allowing it to enter start-up mode and beginning the soft-start period. When the EN input is brought below VEN-H by VEN-HYS, the regulator stops running and enters standby mode. Further decrease in the EN voltage to below VEN-VCC-L completely shuts down the device. This behavior is shown in Figure 9. The EN input may be connected directly to VIN if this feature is not needed. This input must not be allowed to float. The values for the various EN thresholds can be found in the Electrical Characteristics table. The LMR33620 utilizes a reference-based soft start that prevents output voltage overshoots and large inrush currents as the regulator is starting up. A typical start-up waveform is shown in along with typical timings. The rise time of the output voltage is about 4 ms (see Electrical Characteristics).

Typical Start-up Behavior VIN = 12 V, VOUT = 5 V, IOUT = 2 A 8.3.3 Current Limit and Short Circuit The LMR33620 incorporates valley current limit for normal overloads and for short-circuit protection. In addition the high-side power MOSFET is protected from excessive current by a peak current limit circuit. Cycle-by-cycle current limit is used for overloads, while hiccup mode is used for short circuits. Finally, a zero current detector is used on the low-side power MOSFET to implement DEM at light loads (see Glossary). The typical value of this current limit is found under IZC in the Electrical Characteristics. During overloads the low-side current limit, ILIMIT, (see Electrical Characteristics table) determines the maximum load current that the LMR33620 can supply. When the low-side switch turns on, the inductor current begins to ramp down. If the current does not fall below ILIMIT before the next turnon cycle, then that cycle is skipped, and the low-side MOSFET is left on until the current falls below ILIMIT. This is somewhat different than the more typical peak current limit and results in Equation 1 for the maximum load current. IOUT max ILIMIT VIN VOUT VOUT ˜ 2 ˜ fSW ˜ L VIN where • • fSW = Switching frequency L = Inductor value (1) If, during current limit, the voltage on the FB input falls below about 0.4 V, due to a short circuit, the device enters into hiccup mode. In this mode the device stops switching for tHC (see System Characteristics), or about 94 ms and then goes through a normal re-start with soft start. If the short-circuit condition remains, the device runs in current limit for about 20 ms (typical) and then shuts down again. This cycle repeats, as shown in as long as the short-circuit-condition persists. This mode of operation helps to reduce the temperature rise of the device during a hard short on the output. The output current is greatly reduced during hiccup mode (see Typical Characteristics). Once the output short is removed, and the hiccup delay is passed, the output voltage recovers normally as shown in The high-side-current limit trips when the peak inductor current reaches ISC (see Electrical Characteristics table). This is a cycle-by-cycle current limit and does not produce any frequency or load current fold back. It is meant to protect the high-side MOSFET from excessive current. Under some conditions, such as high input voltages, this current limit may trip before the low-side protection. Under this condition, ISC determines the maximum output current. Note that ISC varies with duty cycle.

Inductor Current Burst in Short-Circuit Mode Figure 12. Short-Circuit Transient and Recovery 8.3.4 Undervoltage Lockout and Thermal Shutdown The LMR33620 incorporates an undervoltage-lockout feature on the output of the internal LDO (at the VCC pin). When VCC reaches about 3.7 V the device is ready to receive an EN signal and start up. When VCC falls below about 3 V the device shuts down, regardless of EN status. Since the LDO is in dropout during these transitions, the above values roughly represent the input voltage levels during the transitions. Thermal shutdown is provided to protect the regulator from excessive junction temperature. When the junction temperature reaches about 165°C the device shuts down; re-start occurs when the temperature falls to about 148°C . 8.4 Device Functional Modes 8.4.1 Auto Mode In auto mode the device moves between PWM and PFM as the load changes. At light loads the regulator operates in PFM. At higher loads the mode changes to PWM. The load current for which the device moves from PFM to PWM can be found in the Application Curves. The output current at which the device changes modes depends somewhat on the input voltage; as shown in the curves. For output currents above the curve, the device is in PWM mode. For currents below the curve, the device is in PFM. In PWM the regulator operates as a constant frequency, current mode, full synchronous converter using PWM to regulate the output voltage. While operating in this mode the output voltage is regulated by switching at a constant frequency and modulating the duty cycle to control the power to the load. This provides excellent line and load regulation and low output voltage ripple. In PFM the high-side MOSFET is turned on in a burst of one or more pulses to provide energy to the load. The duration of the burst depends on how long it takes the inductor current to reach IPEAK-MIN. The frequency of these bursts is adjusted to regulate the output, while diode emulation (DEM) is used to maximize efficiency (see Glossary). This mode provides high light-load efficiency by reducing the amount of input supply current required to regulate the output voltage at small loads. This trades off very good light-load efficiency for larger output voltage ripple and variable switching frequency. Also, a small increase in output voltage occurs at light loads. The actual switching frequency and output voltage ripple depends on the input voltage, output voltage, and load. Typical switching waveforms in PFM and PWM are shown in Figure 13 and .

As the input voltage is reduced to near the output voltage, the off-time of the high side MOSFET starts to approach the minimum value (see Timing Characteristics). Beyond this point the switching may become erratic and/or the output voltage will fall out of regulation. To avoid this problem the LMR33620 automatically reduces the switching frequency to increase the effective duty cycle and maintain regulation. In this data sheet the drop-out voltage is defined as the difference between the input and output voltage when the output has dropped by 1% of its nominal value. Under this condition the switching frequency has dropped to its minimum value of about 140 kHz. See Application Curves for typical values of dropout voltage under various conditions. Note that the 0.4 V short circuit detection threshold is not activated when in dropout mode. Typical drop-out characteristics can be found in Figure 15 and Figure 16 . 5 4.5 4 0A 3.5 5 5.5 6 6.5 Input Voltage (V) 0.1 3.3V 5V 2A 0 3 4.5 0.15 0.05 1A 4 0.2 7 0 1 1.5 2 Output Current (A) C002 Figure 15.

This imposes a minimum switch duty cycle and therefore a minimum conversion ratio. The constraint is encountered at high input voltages and low output voltages. To help extend the minimum controllable duty cycle, the LMR33620 automatically reduces the switching frequency when the minimum on-time limit is reached. In this way the converter can regulate the lowest programmable output voltage at the maximum input voltage. An estimate for the approximate input voltage, for a given output voltage, before frequency fold-back occurs is found in Equation 2. The values of tON and fSW can be found in the Electrical Characteristics table. As the input voltage is increased, the switch on-time (duty-cycle) reduces to regulate the output voltage. When the on-time reaches the limit, the switching frequency drops, while the on-time remains fixed. This relationship is highlighted in Figure 17 for a nominal switching frequency of 2.1 MHz.

TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality. NOTE All of the capacitance values given in the following application information refer to effective values; unless otherwise stated. The effective value is defined as the actual capacitance under D.C. bias and temperature; not the rated or nameplate values. Use high-quality, low-ESR, ceramic capacitors with an X5R or better dielectric throughout. All high value ceramic capacitors have a large voltage coefficient in addition to normal tolerances and temperature effects. Under D.C. bias the capacitance drops considerably. Large case sizes and/or higher voltage ratings are better in this regard. To help mitigate these effects, multiple capacitors can be used in parallel to bring the minimum effective capacitance up to the required value. This can also ease the RMS current requirements on a single capacitor. A careful study of bias and temperature variation of any capacitor bank should be made in order to ensure that the minimum value of effective capacitance is provided. 9.1 Application Information The LMR33620 step-down DC-to-DC converter is typically used to convert a higher DC voltage to a lower DC voltage with a maximum output current of 2 A. The following design procedure can be used to select components for the LMR33620. Alternately, the WEBENCH® Design Tool may be used to generate a complete design.

Lower switching frequency implies reduced switching losses and usually results in higher system efficiency. However, higher switching frequency allows the use of smaller inductors and output capacitors, and hence a more compact design. For this example we choose 400 kHz. 18 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2018, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMR33620 LMR33620 www.ti.com SNVSAW1 – FEBRUARY 2018 9.2.2.3 Setting the Output Voltage The output voltage of LMR33620 is externally adjustable using a resistor divider network. The range of recommended output voltage is found in the Recommended Operating Conditions table. The divider network is comprised of RFBT and RFBB, and closes the loop between the output voltage and the converter. The converter regulates the output voltage by holding the voltage on the FB pin equal to the internal reference voltage, VREF. The resistance of the divider is a compromise between excessive noise pick-up and excessive loading of the output. Smaller values of resistance reduce noise sensitivity but also reduce the light-load efficiency. The recommended value for RFBT is 100 kΩ; with a maximum value of 1 MΩ. If a 1 MΩ is selected for RFBT, then a feed-forward capacitor must be used across this resistor to provide adequate loop phase margin (see CFF Selection). Once RFBT is selected, Equation 3 is used to select RFBB. VREF is nominally 1 V (see Electrical Characteristics for limits). RFBT RFBB ª VOUT º 1» « ¬ VREF ¼ (3) For this 5-V example, RFBT = 100 kΩ and RFBB = 24.9 kΩ was chosen. 9.2.2.4 Inductor Selection The parameters for selecting the inductor are the inductance and saturation current. The inductance is based on the desired peak-to-peak ripple current and is normally chosen to be in the range of 20% to 40% of the maximum output current. Experience shows that the best value for inductor ripple current is 30% of the maximum load current. Note that when selecting the ripple current for applications with much smaller maximum load than the maximum available from the device, the maximum device current should be used. Equation 4 can be used to determine the value of inductance. The constant K is the percentage of inductor current ripple. For this example we choose K = 0.3 and find an inductance L = 12.1 µH; we select the next standard value of 10 µH. L VIN VOUT V ˜ OUT fSW ˜ K ˜ IOUT max VIN (4) Ideally, the saturation current rating of the inductor should be at least as large as the high-side switch current limit, ISC (see Electrical Characteristics ). This ensures that the inductor does not saturate even during a short circuit on the output. When the inductor core material saturates, the inductance falls to a very low value, causing the inductor current to rise very rapidly. Although the valley current limit, ILIMIT, is designed to reduce the risk of current run-away, a saturated inductor can cause the current to rise to high values very rapidly. This may lead to component damage; do not allow the inductor to saturate! Inductors with a ferrite core material have very hard saturation characteristics, but usually have lower core losses than powdered iron cores. Powered iron cores exhibit a soft saturation, allowing some relaxation in the current rating of the inductor. However, they have more core losses at frequencies above about 1 MHz. In any case the inductor saturation current should not be less than the device low-side current limit, ILIMIT (see Electrical Characteristics). In order to avoid sub-harmonic oscillation, the inductance value should not be less than that given in Equation 5 The maximum inductance is limited by the minimum current ripple required for the current mode control to perform correctly. As a rule-ofthumb, the minimum inductor ripple current should be no less than about 10% of the device maximum rated current under nominal conditions. V LMIN t 0.36 ˜ OUT fSW (5) 9.2.2.5 Output Capacitor Selection The value of the output capacitor, and its ESR, determine the output voltage ripple and load transient performance. The output capacitor bank is usually limited by the load transient requirements, rather than the output voltage ripple. Equation 6 can be used to estimate a lower bound on the total output capacitance, and an upper bound on the ESR, required to meet a specified load transient.

Vr # 'IL ˜ ESR 2 1 8 ˜ fSW ˜ COUT 2 (7) The output capacitor and ESR can then be adjusted to meet both the load transient and output ripple requirements. For this example we require a ΔVOUT of ≤ 250 mV for an output current step of ΔIOUT = 2 A. Equation 6 gives a minimum value of 45 µF and a maximum ESR of 0.11 Ω. Assuming a 20% tolerance and a 10% bias de-rating, we arrive at a minimum capacitance of 63 µF. This can be achieved with a bank of 4 × 22-µF, 16-V, ceramic capacitors in the 1210 case size. More output capacitance can be used to improve the load transient response. Ceramic capacitors can easily meet the minimum ESR requirements. In some cases an aluminum electrolytic capacitor can be placed in parallel with the ceramics to help build up the required value of capacitance. In general use a capacitor of at least 10 V for output voltages of 3.3 V or less, while a capacitor of 16 V or more should be used for output voltages of 5 V and above. In practice the output capacitor has the most influence on the transient response and loop phase margin. Load transient testing and Bode plots are the best way to validate any given design and should always be completed before the application goes into production. In addition to the required output capacitance, a small ceramic placed on the output can help to reduce high frequency noise. Small case size ceramic capacitors in the range of 1 nF to 100 nF can be very helpful in reducing spikes on the output caused by inductor and board parasitics. The maximum value of total output capacitance should be limited to about 10 times the design value, or 1000 µF, whichever is smaller. Large values of output capacitance can adversely affect the start-up behavior of the regulator as well as the loop stability. If values larger than noted here must be used, then a careful study of startup at full load and loop stability must be performed. 9.2.2.6 Input Capacitor Selection The ceramic input capacitors provide a low impedance source to the regulator in addition to supplying the ripple current and isolating switching noise from other circuits. A minimum of 10 µF of ceramic capacitance is required on the input of the LMR33620. This must be rated for at least the maximum input voltage that the application requires; preferably twice the maximum input voltage. This capacitance can be increased to help reduce input voltage ripple and/or maintain the input voltage during load transients. In addition a small case size 220-nF ceramic capacitor must be used at the input, as close a possible to the regulator. This provides a high frequency bypass for the control circuits internal to the device. For this example a 10-µF, 50-V, X7R (or better) ceramic capacitor is chosen. The 220 nF must also be rated at 50 V with an X7R dielectric. 20 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2018, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMR33620 LMR33620 www.ti.com SNVSAW1 – FEBRUARY 2018 Many times it is desirable to use an electrolytic capacitor on the input in parallel with the ceramics. This is especially true if long leads/traces are used to connect the input supply to the regulator. The moderate ESR of this capacitor can help damp any ringing on the input supply caused by the long power leads. The use of this additional capacitor also helps with voltage dips caused by input supplies with unusually high impedance. Most of the input switching current passes through the ceramic input capacitor(s). The approximate RMS value of this current can be calculated from Equation 8 and should be checked against the manufacturers' maximum ratings. I IRMS # OUT 2 (8) 9.2.2.7 CBOOT The LMR33620 requires a boot-strap capacitor connected between the BOOT pin and the SW pin. This capacitor stores energy that is used to supply the gate drivers for the power MOSFETs. A high-quality ceramic capacitor of 100 nF and at least 16 V is required. 9.2.2.8 VCC The VCC pin is the output of the internal LDO used to supply the control circuits of the regulator. This output requires a 1-µF, 16-V ceramic capacitor connected from VCC to GND for proper operation. In general this output should not be loaded with any external circuitry. However, this output can be used to supply the pull-up for the power-good function (see Power-Good Flag Output). A value of 100 kΩ is a good choice in this case. The nominal output voltage on VCC is 5 V; see Electrical Characteristics for limits. 9.2.2.9 CFF Selection In some cases a feed-forward capacitor can be used across RFBT to improve the load transient response or improve the loop-phase margin. This is especially true when values of RFBT > 100 kΩ are used. Large values of RFBT, in combination with the parasitic capacitance at the FB pin, can create a small signal pole that interferes with the loop stability. A CFF can help to mitigate this effect. Equation 9 can be used to estimate the value of CFF. The value found with Equation 9 is a starting point; use lower values to determine if any advantage is gained by the use of a CFF capacitor. The application report Optimizing Transient Response of Internally Compensated DCDC Converters with Feed-forward Capacitor is helpful when experimenting with a feed-forward capacitor.

This can be accomplished by using the circuit shown in Figure 19 can be used. The input voltage at which the device turns on is designated VON; while the turnoff voltage is VOFF. First a value for RENB is chosen in the range of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ and then Equation 10 is used to calculate RENT and VOFF. VIN RENT EN RENB Figure 19.

The effect of this power dissipation is to raise the internal temperature of the converter above ambient. The internal die temperature (TJ) is a function of the ambient temperature, the power loss and the effective thermal resistance, RθJA of the device and PCB combination. The maximum internal die temperature for the LMR33620 must be limited to 125°C. This establishes a limit on the maximum device power dissipation and therefore the load current. Equation 11 shows the relationships between the important parameters. It is easy to see that larger ambient temperatures (TA) and larger values of RθJA reduce the maximum available output current. The converter efficiency can be estimated by using the curves provided in this data sheet. If the desired operating conditions can not be found in one of the curves, then interpolation can be used to estimate the efficiency. Alternatively, the EVM can be adjusted to match the desired application requirements and the efficiency can be measured directly. The correct value of RθJA is more difficult to estimate. As stated in Semiconductor and IC Package Thermal Metrics, the values given in the Thermal Information table are not valid for design purposes and must not be used to estimate the thermal performance of the application. The values reported in that table were measured under a specific set of conditions that are rarely obtained in an actual application. IOUT MAX TJ TA 1 K ˜ ˜ R TJA 1 K VOUT where • η = Efficiency (11) The effective RθJA is a critical parameter and depends on many factors such as power dissipation, air temperature/flow, PCB area, copper heat-sink area, number of thermal vias under the package, and adjacent component placement; to mention just a few. The HSOIC (DDA) package utilizes a die attach paddle, or thermal pad (PAD) to provide a place to solder down to the PCB heat-sinking copper. This provides a good heat conduction path from the regulator junction to the heat sink and must be properly soldered to the PCB heat sink copper. A typical example of RθJA vs copper board area can be found in Figure 20. The copper area given in the graph is for each layer; the top and bottom layers are 2 oz. copper each, while the inner layers are 1 oz. A typical curve of maximum output current vs. ambient temperature is shown in Figure 21. This data was taken with a device/PCB combination giving an RθJA of about 30°C/W. It must be remembered that the data given in these graphs are for illustration purposes only, and the actual performance in any given application depends on all of the previously mentioned factors. 22 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2018, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMR33620 LMR33620 www.ti.com SNVSAW1 – FEBRUARY 2018 44 42 40 R JA (ƒC/W) 38 36 34 32 30 28 26 24 22 DDA, 4L 20 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 Copper Area (cm2) C003 Figure 20.

In addition, the input supply must be capable of delivering the required input current to the loaded regulator. The average input current can be estimated with Equation 12, where η is the efficiency. VOUT ˜ IOUT IIN VIN ˜ K (12) If the regulator is connected to the input supply through long wires or PCB traces, special care is required to achieve good performance. The parasitic inductance and resistance of the input cables can have an adverse effect on the operation of the regulator. The parasitic inductance, in combination with the low-ESR, ceramic input capacitors, can form an under damped resonant circuit, resulting in overvoltage transients at the input to the regulator. The parasitic resistance can cause the voltage at the VIN pin to dip whenever a load transient is applied to the output. If the application is operating close to the minimum input voltage, this dip may cause the regulator to momentarily shutdown and/or reset. The best way to solve these kind of issues is to reduce the distance from the input supply to the regulator and/or use an aluminum or tantalum input capacitor in parallel with the ceramics. The moderate ESR of these types of capacitors help to damp the input resonant circuit and reduce any overshoots. A value in the range of 20 µF to 100 µF is usually sufficient to provide input damping and help to hold the input voltage steady during large load transients. Sometimes, for other system considerations, an input filter is used in front of the regulator. This can lead to instability, as well as some of the effects mentioned above, unless it is designed carefully. The user guide AN2162 Simple Success With Conducted EMI From DCDC Converters provides helpful suggestions when designing an input filter for any switching regulator. In some cases a transient voltage suppressor (TVS) is used on the input of regulators. One class of this device has a snap-back characteristic (thyristor type). The use of a device with this type of characteristic is not recommended. When the TVS fires, the clamping voltage falls to a very low value. If this voltage is less than the output voltage of the regulator, the output capacitors discharge through the device back to the input. This uncontrolled current flow may damage the device. 28 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2018, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMR33620 LMR33620 www.ti.com SNVSAW1 – FEBRUARY 2018 11 Layout 11.1 Layout Guidelines The PCB layout of any DC/DC converter is critical to the optimal performance of the design. Bad PCB layout can disrupt the operation of an otherwise good schematic design. Even if the converter regulates correctly, bad PCB layout can mean the difference between a robust design and one that cannot be mass produced. Furthermore, the EMI performance of the regulator is dependent on the PCB layout, to a great extent. In a buck converter the most critical PCB feature is the loop formed by the input capacitor(s) and power ground, as shown in Figure 41. This loop carries large transient currents that can cause large transient voltages when reacting with the trace inductance. These unwanted transient voltages will disrupt the proper operation of the converter. Because of this, the traces in this loop should be wide and short, and the loop area as small as possible to reduce the parasitic inductance. Figure 42 shows a recommended layout for the critical components of the LMR33620DDA . 1. Place the input capacitor(s) as close as possible to the VIN and GND terminals. VIN and GND pins are adjacent, simplifying the input capacitor placement. 2. Place bypass capacitor for VCC close to the VCC pin. This capacitor must be placed close to the device and routed with short, wide traces to the VCC and GND pins. 3. Use wide traces for the CBOOT capacitor. Place CBOOT close to the device with short/wide traces to the BOOT and SW pins. 4. Place the feedback divider as close as possible to the FB pin of the device. Place RFBB, RFBT, and CFF, if used, physically close to the device. The connections to FB and GND must be short and close to those pins on the device. The connection to VOUT can be somewhat longer. However, this latter trace must not be routed near any noise source (such as the SW node) that can capacitively couple into the feedback path of the regulator. 5. Use at least one ground plane in one of the middle layers. This plane acts as a noise shield and also act as a heat dissipation path. 6. Connect the thermal pad to the ground plane. The SOIC package has a thermal pad (PAD) connection that must be soldered down to the PCB ground plane. This pad acts as a heat-sink connection and an electrical ground connection for the regulator. The integrity of this solder connection has a direct bearing on the total effective RθJA of the application. 7. Provide wide paths for VIN, VOUT, and GND. Making these paths as wide and direct as possible reduces any voltage drops on the input or output paths of the converter and maximizes efficiency. 8. Provide enough PCB area for proper heat-sinking. As stated in the Maximum Ambient Temperature section, enough copper area must be used to ensure a low RθJA, commensurate with the maximum load current and ambient temperature. Make the top and bottom PCB layerswith two-ounce copper; and no less than one ounce. With the SOIC package, use an array of heat-sinking vias to connect the thermal pad (PAD) to the ground plane on the bottom PCB layer. If the PCB design uses multiple copper layers (recommended), these thermal vias can also be connected to the inner layer heat-spreading ground planes. 9. Keep switch area small. Keep the copper area connecting the SW pin to the inductor as short and wide as possible. At the same time the total area of this node should be minimized to help reduce radiated EMI.

Current Loops with Fast Edges 11.1.1 Ground and Thermal Considerations As mentioned above, TI recommends using one of the middle layers as a solid ground plane. A ground plane provides shielding for sensitive circuits and traces. It also provides a quiet reference potential for the control circuitry. The AGND and PGND pins should be connected to the ground planes using vias next to the bypass capacitors. PGND pins are connected directly to the source of the low side MOSFET switch, and also connected directly to the grounds of the input and output capacitors. The PGND net contains noise at the switching frequency and may bounce due to load variations. The PGND trace, as well as the VIN and SW traces, must be constrained to one side of the ground planes. The other side of the ground plane contains much less noise and must be used for sensitive routes. TI recommends providing adequate device heat sinking by utilizing the thermal pad (PAD) of the device as the primary thermal path. Use a minimum 4 × 3 array of 10 mil thermal vias to connect the PAD to the system ground plane heat sink. The vias must be evenly distributed under the PAD. Use as much copper as possible, for system ground plane, on the top and bottom layers for the best heat dissipation. Use a four-layer board with the copper thickness for the four layers, starting from the top as: 2 oz / 1 oz / 1 oz / 2 oz. A four-layer board with enough copper thickness, and proper layout, provides low current conduction impedance, proper shielding and lower thermal resistance. 30 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2018, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMR33620 LMR33620 www.ti.com SNVSAW1 – FEBRUARY 2018 11.2 Layout Example GND HEATSINK INDUCTOR VOUT COUT COUT CBOOT COUT CHF GND CIN VIN EN CVCC PGOOD RFBT RFBB GND GND HEATSINK Top Trace Bottom Trace VIA Ground Plane VIA Bottom Figure 42.
