TOREX XC9510K1364

XC9510 Series
ETR1007_001
Synchronous Step-Down DC/DC Converter
with Built-In LDO Regulator In Series Plus Voltage Detector
■GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XC9510 series consists of a step-down DC/DC converter and a high-speed LDO regulator connected in series with the
DC/DC converter's output. A voltage detector is also built-in. A highly efficient, low noise output is possible since the
regulator is stepped-down further from the DC/DC output.
The DC/DC converter block incorporates a P-channel driver transistor and a synchronous N-channel switching transistor.
With an external coil, diode and two capacitors, the XC9510 can deliver output currents up to 800mA at efficiencies over 90%.
The XC9510 is designed for use with small ceramic capacitors. A choice of three switching frequencies are available, 300
kHz, 600 kHz, and 1.2 MHz. Output voltage settings for the DC/DC is set-up internally in 100mV steps within the range of 1.6V
to 4.0V(±2.0%) and for the VR are set-up internally within the range of 0.9V to 4.0V (±2.0%). For the VD, the range is of
0.9V to 5.0V (±2.0%). The soft start time of the series is internally set to 5ms. With the built-in U.V.L.O. (Under Voltage Lock
Out) function, the internal P-channel driver transistor is forced OFF when input voltage becomes 1.4 V or lower. The
operational states of the DC/DC and the regulator blocks can be changed by inputting three kinds of voltage level via the
CE/MODE pin. The functions of the MODE pin can be selected via the external control pin to switch the DC/DC control mode
and the disable pin to shut down the regulator block.

diode is not normally needed.
However, in cases where high efficiency is required when using the DC/DC converter during in the

*2 Please be noted that the recommend value above of the CL2 may be changed depending on the input voltage value and setting

■OPERATIONAL EXPLANATION
The XC9510 series consists of a synchronous step-down DC/DC converter, a high speed LDO voltage regulator, and a
voltage detector. Since the LDO voltage regulator is stepped-down from the DC/DC’s output,high efficiency and low noise is
possible even at lower output voltages.
●DC/DC Converter
The series consists of a reference voltage source, ramp wave circuit, error amplifier, PWM comparator, phase
compensation circuit, output voltage adjustment resistors, driver transistor, synchronous switch, current limiter circuit,
U.V.L.O. circuit and others. The series ICs compare, using the error amplifier, the voltage of the internal voltage
reference source with the feedback voltage from the VOUT pin through split resistors. Phase compensation is
performed on the resulting error amplifier output, to input a signal to the PWM comparator to determine the turn-on time
during PWM operation. The PWM comparator compares, in terms of voltage level, the signal from the error amplifier
with the ramp wave from the ramp wave circuit, and delivers the resulting output to the buffer driver circuit to cause the
Lx pin to output a switching duty cycle. This process is continuously performed to ensure stable output voltage. The
current feedback circuit monitors the P-channel MOS driver transistor current for each switching operation, and
modulates the error amplifier output signal to provide multiple feedback signals. This enables a stable feedback loop
even when a low ESR capacitor, such as a ceramic capacitor, is used, ensuring stable output voltage.
<Reference Voltage Source>
The reference voltage source provides the reference voltage to ensure stable output voltage of the DC/DC converter.
<Ramp Wave Circuit>
The ramp wave circuit determines switching frequency. The frequency is fixed internally and can be selected from
300kHz, 600 kHz and 1.2 MHz. Clock pulses generated in this circuit are used to produce ramp waveforms needed for
PWM operation, and to synchronize all the internal circuits.
<Error Amplifier>
The error amplifier is designed to monitor output voltage. The amplifier compares the reference voltage with the
feedback voltage divided by the internal split resistors. When a voltage lower than the reference voltage is fed back, the
output voltage of the error amplifier increases. The gain and frequency characteristics of the error amplifier output are
fixed internally to deliver an optimized signal to the mixer.

Series
■OPERATIONAL EXPLANATION (Continued)
<PWM/PFM>
The XC9510A to F series are PWM control, while the XC9510H to L series can be automatically switched between PWM
control and PWM/PFM control. The PWM of the XC9510A to F series are controlled on a specified frequency from light
loads through the heavy loads. Since the frequency is specified, the composition of a noise filter etc. becomes easy.
However, the efficiency at the time of the light load may become low.
The XC9510H to L series can switch in any timing between PWM control and PWM/PFM automatic switching control.
The series cannot control only PFM mode. If needed, the operation can be set on a specified frequency; therefore, the
control of the noise etc. is possible and the high efficiency at the time of the light load during PFM control mode is
possible. With the automatic PWM/PFM switching control function, the series ICs are automatically switched from
PWM control to PFM control mode under light load conditions. If during light load conditions the coil current becomes
discontinuous and on-time rate falls lower than 30%, the PFM circuit operates to output a pulse with 30% of a fixed
on-time rate from the Lx pin. During PFM operation with this fixed on-time rate, pulses are generated at different
frequencies according to conditions of the moment. This causes a reduction in the number of switching operations per
unit of time, resulting in efficiency improvement under light load conditions. However, since pulse output frequency is
not constant, consideration should be given if a noise filter or the like is needed. Necessary conditions for switching to
PFM operation depend on input voltage, load current, coil value and other factors.
<Synchronous / Non-synchronous>
The XC9510 series automatically switches between synchronous / non-synchronous according to the state of the DC/DC
converter.
Highly efficient operations are achievable using the synchronous mode while the coil current is in a continuous state.
The series enters non-synchronous operation when the built-in N-ch switching transistor for synchronous operation is
shutdown which happens when the load current becomes low and the operation changes to a discontinuous state.
The IC can operate without an external schottky diode because the parasitic diode in the N-ch switching transistor
provides the circuit's step-down operation. However, since Vf of the parasitic diode is a high 0.6V, the efficiency level
during non-synchronous operation shows a slight decrease. Please use an external schottky diode if high efficiency is
required during light load current.
●Continuous Mode: Synchronous
●Discontinuous Mode: Non-Synchronous

XC9510 Series
■OPERATIONAL EXPLANATION (Continued)
<Current Limit>
The current limiter circuit of the XC9510 series monitors the current flowing through the P-channel MOS driver
transistor connected to the Lx pin, and features a combination of the constant-current type current limit mode and the
operation suspension mode.
① When the driver current is greater than a specific level, the constant-current type current limit function operates
to turn off the pulses from the Lx pin at any given timing.
② When the driver transistor is turned off, the limiter circuit is then released from the current limit detection state.
③ At the next pulse, the driver transistor is turned on. However, the transistor is immediately turned off in the
case of an over current state.
④ When the over current state is eliminated, the IC resumes its normal operation.
The IC waits for the over current state to end by repeating the steps ① through ③ . If an over current state
continues for 8msec* and the above three steps are repeatedly performed, the IC performs the function of latching
the OFF state of the driver transistor, and goes into operation suspension mode.
Once the IC is in suspension
mode, operations can be resumed by either turning the IC off via the CE/MODE pin, or by restoring power to the
VIN pin. The suspension mode does not mean a complete shutdown, but a state in which pulse output is
suspended; therefore, the internal circuitry remains in operation. The constant-current type current limit of the
XC9510 series can be set at 1.1A.
<U.V.L.O. Circuit>
When the VIN pin voltage becomes 1.4 V or lower, the P-channel output driver transistor is forced OFF to prevent false
pulse output caused by unstable operation of the internal circuitry. When the VIN pin voltage becomes 1.8 V or higher,
switching operation takes place. By releasing the U.V.L.O. function, the IC performs the soft start function to initiate
output startup operation. The soft start function operates even when the VIN pin voltage falls momentarily below the
U.V.L.O. operating voltage. The U.V.L.O. circuit does not cause a complete shutdown of the IC, but causes pulse
output to be suspended; therefore, the internal circuitry remains in operation.
●High Speed LDO Voltage Regulator
The voltage regulator block of the XC9510 series consists of a reference voltage source, error amplifier, and current
limiter circuit.The voltage divided by split resistors is compared with the internal reference voltage by the error amplifier.
The P-channel MOSFET, which is connected to the VROUT pin, is then driven by the subsequent output signal. The
output voltage at the VROUT pin is controlled and stabilized by a system of negative feedback. A stable output voltage is
achievable even if used with low ESR capacitors as a phase compensation circuit is built-in.
<Reference Voltage Source>
The reference voltage source provides the reference voltage to ensure stable output voltage of the regulator.
<Error Amplifier>
The error amplifier compares the reference voltage with the signal from VROUT, and the amplifier controls the output of
the P-ch driver transistor.
<Current Limit Circuit>
The voltage regulator block includes a combination of a constant current limiter circuit and a foldback circuit. When the
load current reaches the current limit level, the current limiter circuit operates and the output voltage of the voltage
regulator block drops. As a result of this drop in output voltage, the foldback circuit operates, output voltage drops
further and the load current decreases. When the VROUT and GND pin are shorted, the load current of about 30mA flows.

■OPERATIONAL EXPLANATION (Continued)
●Voltage Detector
The detector block of the XC9510 series detects output voltage from the VDOUT pin while sensing either VDD, DCOUT, or
VROUT internally. (N-channel Open Drain Type)
< CE / MODE Pin Function>
The operation of the XC9510 series' DC/DC converter block and voltage regulator block will enter into the shut down
mode when a low level signal is input to the CE/MODE pin. During the shut down mode, the current consumption occurs
only in the detector and is 3.0μA (TYP.), with a state of high impedance at the Lx pin and DCOUT pin. The IC starts its
operation by inputting a high level signal or a middle level signal to the CE/MODE pin. The input to the CE/MODE pin is
a CMOS input and the sink current is 0μA (TYP.). The operation of the XC9510D to F series' voltage detector block will
enter into stand-by mode when a high level signal is input to the CE/MODE pin. The voltage regulator block will operate
when a middle level signal is input. But when a low level signal is input, the voltage regulator block will enter into
stand-by mode. With the XC9510H to L series control can be PWM control when the CE/MODE pin is 'M' level and
PWM/PFM automatic switching control when the CE/MODE pin is 'H' level.
■NOTES ON USE
●Application Information
1.
The XC9510 series is designed for use with ceramic output capacitors. If, however, the potential difference between
dropout voltage or output current is too large, a ceramic capacitor may fail to absorb the resulting high switching
energy and oscillation could occur on the output. If the input-output potential difference is large, connect an
electrolytic capacitor in parallel to compensate for insufficient capacitance.
2.
Spike noise and ripple voltage arise in a switching regulator as with a DC/DC converter. These are greatly influenced by external
component selection, such as the coil inductance, capacitance values, and board layout of external components. Once the design
has been completed, verification with actual components should be done.
3. When the difference between VIN and VOUT is large in PWM control, very narrow pulses will be outputted, and there
is the possibility that some cycles may be skipped completely.
4. When the difference between VIN and VOUT is small, and the load current is heavy, very wide pulses will be outputted
and there is the possibility that some cycles may be skipped completely: in this case, the Lx pin may not go low at all.

5.
The IC's DC/DC converter operates in synchronous mode when the coil current is in a continuous state and
non-synchronous mode when the coil current is in a discontinuous state. In order to maintain the load current
value when synchronous switches to non-synchronous and vise versa, a ripple voltage may increase because of the
repetition of switching between synchronous and non-synchronous. When this state continues, the increase in the
ripple voltage stops. To reduce the ripple voltage, please increase the load capacitance value or use a schottky
diode externally. When the current used becomes close to the value of the load current when synchronous
switches to non- synchronous and vise versa, the switching current value can be changed by changing the coil
inductance value. In case changes to coil inductance are to values other than the recommended coil inductance
values, verification with actual components should be done.
Ics =
(VIN - DCOUT) x OnDuty / (L x Fosc)
Ics: Switching current from synchronous rectification to non-synchronous rectification
.
OnDuty: OnDuty ratio of P-ch driver transistor ( =.step down ratio : DCOUT / VIN)
L: Coil inductance value
Fosc: Oscillation frequency
IDOUT: The DC/DC load current
(the sum of the DC/DC's and the regulator's load if the regulator has load.)
6. When the XC9510H to L series operates in PWM/PFM automatic switching control mode, the reverse current may
become quite high around the load current value when synchronous switches to non-synchronous and vise versa
(also refer to no. 5 above).
Under this condition, switching synchronous rectification and non-synchronous
rectification may be repeated because of the reverse current, and the ripple voltage may be increased to 100mV or
more. The reverse current is the current that flows in the PGND direction through the N-ch driver transistor from the
coil. The conditions which cause this operation are as follows.
PFM Duty < Step down ratio = DCOUT / VIN x 100 (%)
PFM Duty: 30% (TYP.)
Please switch to PWM control via the MODE function in cases where the load current value of the DC/DC converter
is close to synchronous.

●Application Information (Continued)
7. With the DC/DC converter of the IC, the peak current of the coil is controlled by the current limit circuit. Since the
peak current increases when dropout voltage or load current is high, current limit starts operating, and this can lead
to instability. When peak current becomes high, please adjust the coil inductance value and fully check the circuit
operation. In addition, please calculate the peak current according to the following formula:
Peak current: Ipk = (VIN - DCOUT) x OnDuty / (2 x L x Fosc) + IDOUT
8. When the peak current, which exceeds limit current flows within the specified time, the built-in driver transistor is
turned off (the integral latch circuit). During the time until it detects limit current and before the built-in transistor
can be turned off, the current for limit current flows; therefore, care must be taken when selecting the rating for the
coil or the Schottky diode.
9. When VIN is low, limit current may not be reached because of voltage falls caused by ON resistance or serial
resistance of the coil.
10.
In the integral latch circuit, latch time may become longer and latch operation may not work when VIN is 3.0V or
more.
11.
Use of the IC at voltages below the recommended voltage range may lead to instability.
12.
This IC and the external components should be used within the stated absolute maximum ratings in order to prevent
damage to the device.
13.
Since the DC/DC converter and the regulator of the XC9510 series are connected in series, the sum of the output
current (IDOUT) of the DC/DC and the output current (IROUT) of the VR makes the current flows inside the DC/DC
converter. Please be careful of the power dissipation when in use. Please calculate power dissipation by using the
following formula.
Pd=PdDC/DC + PdVR
2
DC/DC power dissipation (when in synchronous operation) : PdDC/DC = IDOUT x RON
VR power dissipation: PdVR=(DCOUT – VROUT) x IROUT
RON: ON resistance of the built-in driver transistor to the DC/DC (= 0.5Ω<TYP.>)
RON=Rpon x P-chOnDuty / 100
+ Rnon x (1 – P-chOnDuty / 100)
14.
The voltage detector circuit built-in the XC9510 series internally monitor the VDD pin voltage, the DC/DC output pin
voltage and VR output pin voltage. For the XC9510B/C/E/F/K/L series, which voltage detector circuit monitors the
DC/DC output pin voltage and the VR output pin voltage, please determine the detect voltage value (VDF) by the
following equation.
VDF≦(Setting voltage on both the DCOUT voltage and the VROUT voltage)×85%*
* An assumed value of tolerance among the DCOUT voltage, the VROUT voltage, and the VD release voltage
(The VD detect voltage and hysteresis range).

●Instructions on Pattern Layout
1.
In order to stabilize VIN's voltage level, we recommend that a by-pass capacitor (CIN) be connected as close as
possible to the VDD & AGND pins. This IC is the composite IC of the DC/DC converter and regulator. Fluctuation of
the VIN's voltage level causes mutual interference.
2.
Please mount each external component as close to the IC as possible.
3. Wire external components as close to the IC as possible and use thick, short connecting traces to reduce the circuit
impedance.
4.
Make sure that the PCB GND traces are as thick as possible, as variations in ground potential caused by high
ground currents at the time of switching may result in instability of the DC/DC converter and have adverse influence
on the regulator output.
5.
If using a Schottky diode, please connect the anode side to the AGND pin through CIN.
caused by the noise may occur depending on the arrangement of the Schottky diode.
