AP2014/A SYNCHRONOUS PWM CONTROLLER General Description Features • • • • • • • • • • The AP2014 controller IC is designed to provide a low cost synchronous Buck regulator for on-board DC to DC converter applications. With today’s ASIC products requiring supply voltages at 1.8V and lower, when the output current is as much as 3A and the input voltage is at either 3.3V or 5V, traditional linear regulator simply incurs too much loss within itself. The AP2014 together with dual N-channel MOSFETs provide a low cost solution for such applications. This device features an internal 200KHz oscillator (400KHz for "A" version), under-voltage lockout for both Vcc and Vc supplies, an external programmable soft-start function as well as output under-voltage detection that latches off the device when an output short is detected.

This pin provides biasing for the internal blocks of the IC as well as power for the low side driver. A minimum of 1uF, high frequency capacitor must be connected from this pin to ground to provide peak drive current capability. Output driver for the synchronous power MOSFET. This pin serves as the ground pin and must be connected directly to the ground plane. A high frequency capacitor (0.1 to 1uF) must be connected from V5 and V12 pins to this pin for noise free operation. Output driver for the high side power MOSFET. This pin is connected to a voltage that must be at least 4V higher than the bus voltage of the switcher (assuming 5V threshold MOSFET) and powers the high side output driver. A minimum of 1uF, high frequency capacitor must be connected from this pin to ground to provide peak drive current capability. Compensation pin of the error amplifier. An external resistor and capacitor network is typically connected from this pin to ground to provide loop compensation. This pin provides soft-start for the switching regulator. An internal current source charges an external capacitor that is connected from this pin to ground which ramps up the output of the switching regulator, preventing it from overshooting as well as limiting the input current. The converter can be shutdown by pulling this pin below 0.5V. 2 of 14 FEBRUARY 2009 www.diodes.com © Diodes Incorporated AP2014/A SYNCHRONOUS PWM CONTROLLER Block Diagram Vc 6 3V FbLo Comp - 20uA 0.5V + SS POR 8 POR 64uA Max 1.25V 25K Fb 1 Comp 7 25K Ct Error Amp + Oscillator + R - Vcc + 0.2V Vc 3.5V S Error Comp - 4.0V 5 HDrv - Q 2 Vcc 3 LDrv Reset Dom Bias Generator 3V 1.25V POR + 0.2V 4 GND AP2014/A Rev. 5 3 of 14 FEBRUARY 2009 www.diodes.com © Diodes Incorporated AP2014/A SYNCHRONOUS PWM CONTROLLER Typical Application Circuit (1) VIN=5V Vc=12V C8 470u C11 0.1u C3 1u R3 8.2 C4 0.1u 1 2 3 4 C5 0.47u R1 820 U1 8 FB SS Vcc Comp 7 Vc 6 LDrv GND HDrv 5 C6 AP2014 10nF Q1 R2 3.3K L1 5.6u/9.0 Vout +1.5V/7.0A Q2 R6 22k C20 100p C12 C13 C17 470u 470u 0.1u (2) VIN=12V D2 1N4148 D1 C1 0.1uF C8 C11 470u 0.1u 1N4148 C4 0.1u R3 8.2 C3 100u 1 2 3 4 U1 FB SS Vcc Comp Vc LDrv GND HDrv AP2014 C5 0.47u R1 820 8 7 6 5 R2 3.3K Q1 L1 5.6u/9A Vout +1.5V/7.0A C6 10nF Q2 R6 6.8k C20 100p Option C12 C13 C17 470u 470u 0.1u Single Supply 12V Input AP2014/A Rev. 5 4 of 14 FEBRUARY 2009 www.diodes.com © Diodes Incorporated AP2014/A SYNCHRONOUS PWM CONTROLLER Typical Application Circuit (Continued) (3) VIN=12V D2 1N4148 C1 0.1uF D1 C8 C11 470u 0.1u 1N4148 C4 0.1u R3 8.2 1 2 3 4 C3 100u R1 10K U1 FB SS Vcc Comp Vc LDrv GND HDrv 8 7 6 5 R2 3K Q1 L1 10uH/6A AP2014 Vout +5V/5.0A C6 10nF C5 0.47u Q2 R6 39k C20 100p C13 C17 470u 0.1u Single Supply 12V Input (4) VIN=24V RZD 1.2K C1 0.1uF D1 0.1u C4 0.1u R3 8.2 R3 8.2 1 2 3 4 U1 FB SS Vcc Comp Vc LDrv GND HDrv AP2014 C3 100u C11 470u 1N4148 D2 1N4148 ZD 6.2V C8 C5 0.47u R1 10K 8 7 6 5 R2 3.3K Q1-1 L1 10uH/6A Vout +5V/4.0A C6 10nF Q1-2 R6 47k C20 100p C13 C17 470u 0.1u IZD(≧15mA)=(VIN-VD2-VZD)/RZD Single Supply 24V Input AP2014/A Rev. 5 5 of 14 FEBRUARY 2009 www.diodes.com © Diodes Incorporated AP2014/A SYNCHRONOUS PWM CONTROLLER Typical Application Circuit (Continued) (5) +12V R4 0R +12V_BUS C7 470u C3 1u C9 470u C10 470u +12V R1 2.2K C4 0.1u R7 0R 1 2 3 4 R3 11 U1 FB SS Vcc Comp LDrv Vc GND HDrv R9 R 8 7 6 5 R2 1K Q1 70T03H L1 4.7u AP2014A C11 0.1u C5 1u C6 5600pF R6 39k AP2014/A Rev. 5 Q2 70T03H D2 SBD optional Vout +1.26V C12 470u C13 470u C15 470u C17 0.1u C20 10p 6 of 14 FEBRUARY 2009 www.diodes.com © Diodes Incorporated AP2014/A SYNCHRONOUS PWM CONTROLLER Typical Application Circuit (Continued) (6) Dual Supply, 5V Bus and 12V Bias Input 5V L1 12V + C3 100uF C1 1uF C1 0.1uF Vcc 1uH + Q1 L2 AP2014 Comp 1.8V/1A AP1187 Vc HDrv C8 10nF R1 3.3K + C4 47uF 10uH Q2 LDrv C5 47uF 2.5V/2A + C6 220uF Fb SS GND R3 1K R2 1K C7 0.1uF + C10 1uF C9 0.1uF Vcc C11 Vc Q3 HDrv L3 AP2014 C14 10nF R4 3.3K Comp 10uH LDrv Q4 3.3V/1.8A + C12 220uF Fb SS GND R6 1.65K R5 1K C13 0.1uF Dual Supply, 5V Bus and 12V Bias Input AP2014/A Rev. 5 7 of 14 FEBRUARY 2009 www.diodes.com © Diodes Incorporated AP2014/A SYNCHRONOUS PWM CONTROLLER Absolute Maximum Ratings Symbol VCC Vc TST TOP θJC θJA Notes: Parameter Rating 20 32 -65 to +150 0 to +125 7 160 VCC Supply Voltage Vc Supply Voltage (not rated for inductive load) Storage Temperature Range Operating Junction Temperature Range Thermal Resistance Junction to Case Thermal Resistance Junction to Ambient Unit V V o C o C o C/W o C/W 3.

The output voltage of the synchronous converter is set and controlled by the output of the error amplifier; this is the amplified error signal from the sensed output voltage and the reference voltage. This voltage is compared to a fixed frequency linear sawtooth ramp and generates fixed frequency pulses of variable duty-cycle, which drives the two N-channel external MOSFETs.The timing of the IC is provided through an internal oscillator circuit which uses on-chip capacitor to set the oscillation frequency to 200 KHz (400 KHz for “A” version). Soft-Start The AP2014 has a programmable soft-start to control the output voltage rise and limit the current surge at the start-up. To ensure correct start-up, the soft-start sequence initiates when the VC and VCC rise above their threshold (3.3V and 4.2V respectively) and generates the Power On Reset (POR) signal. Soft-start function operates by sourcing an internal current to charge an external capacitor to about 3V. Initially, the soft-start function clamps the E/A’s output of the PWM converter. As the charging voltage of the external capacitor ramps up, the PWM signals increase from zero to the point the feedback loop takes control. Short-Circuit Protection The outputs are protected against the short circuit. The AP2014 protects the circuit for shorted output by sensing the output voltage (through the external resistor divider). The AP2014 shuts down the PWM signals, when the output voltage drops below 0.6V (0.4V for AP2014A). The AP2014 also protects the output from over-voltaging when the control FET is shorted. This is done by turning on the sync FET with the maximum duty cycle. Under-Voltage Lockout The under-voltage lockout circuit assures that the MOSFET driver outputs remain in the off state whenever the supply voltage drops below set parameters. Lockout occurs if VC and VCC fall below 3.3V and 4.2V respectively. Normal operation resumes once VC and VCC rise above the set values. IC Quiescent Power Dissipation Power dissipation for IC controller is a function of applied voltage, gate driver loads and switching frequency. The IC's maximum power dissipation occurs when the IC operating with single 12V supply voltage (Vcc=12V and Vc≅24V) at 400KHz switching frequency and maximum gate loads. Page 8 shows voltage vs. current, when the gate drivers loaded with 1500pF capacitors. The IC's power dissipation results in an excessive temperature rise. This should be considered when using AP2014A for such application.
