VID0 – VID4
Voltage ID DAC input pins. These pins are internally pulled up to 5V
providing logic ones if left open. VID4 selects the DAC range. When VID4
is High (logic one), the DAC range is 2.10V to 3.50V with 100mV increments. When VID4 is Low (logic zero), the DAC range is 1.30V to 2.05V
with 50mV increments. VID0 - VID4 select the desired DAC output voltage. Leaving all 5 DAC input pins open results in a DAC output voltage
of 1.2440V, allowing for adjustable output voltage, using a traditional
resistor divider.

SS
Soft Start Pin. A capacitor from this pin to LGnd in conjunction with
internal 60µA current source provides soft start function for the controller. This pin disables fault detect function during Soft Start. When a
fault is detected, the soft start capacitor is slowly discharged by internal
2µA current source setting the time out before trying to restart the IC.
Charge/discharge current ratio of 30 sets the duty cycle for the IC when
the regulator output is shorted.

Applications Information
change in the error signal causes the output voltage to
change corresponding to the gain of the error amplifier,
which is normally specified as line and load regulation. A
current mode controller maintains fixed error signal under
deviation in the line voltage, since the slope of the ramp
signal changes, but still relies on a change in the error signal for a deviation in load. The V2TM method of control
maintains a fixed error signal for both line and load variation, since the ramp signal is affected by both line and load.
Theory of Operation
V2TM Control Method
The V2TM method of control uses a ramp signal that is generated by the ESR of the output capacitors. This ramp is
proportional to the AC current through the main inductor
and is offset by the value of the DC output voltage. This
control scheme inherently compensates for variation in
either line or load conditions, since the ramp signal is generated from the output voltage itself. This control scheme
differs from traditional techniques such as voltage mode,
which generates an artificial ramp, and current mode,
which generates a ramp from inductor current.
Constant Off Time
To maximize transient response, the CS5158 uses a constant
off time method to control the rate of output pulses. During
normal operation, the off time of the high side switch is terminated after a fixed period, set by the COFF capacitor. To
maintain regulation, the V2TM control loop varies switch on
time. The PWM comparator monitors the output voltage
ramp, and terminates the switch on time.
Constant off time provides a number of advantages. Switch
duty cycle can be adjusted from 0 to 100% on a pulse by
pulse basis when responding to transient conditions. Both
0% and 100% duty cycle operation can be maintained for
extended periods of time in response to load or line transients. PWM slope compensation to avoid sub-harmonic
oscillations at high duty cycles is avoided.
Switch on time is limited by an internal 30µs timer, minimizing stress to the power components.

Figure 1: V2TM Control Diagram
Programmable Output
The CS5158 is designed to provide two methods for programming the output voltage of the power supply. A five
bit on board digital to analog converter (DAC) is used to
program the output voltage within two different ranges.
The first range is 2.10V to 3.50V in 100mV steps, the second
is 1.30V to 2.05V in 50mV steps, depending on the digital
input code. If all five bits are left open, the CS5158 enters
adjust mode. In adjust mode, the designer can choose any
output voltage by using resistor divider feedback to the
VFB and VFFB pins, as in traditional controllers.
The V2TM control method is illustrated in Figure 1. The output voltage is used to generate both the error signal and the
ramp signal. Since the ramp signal is simply the output
voltage, it is affected by any change in the output regardless of the origin of that change. The ramp signal also contains the DC portion of the output voltage, which allows
the control circuit to drive the main switch to 0% or 100%
duty cycle as required.
A change in line voltage changes the current ramp in the
inductor, affecting the ramp signal, which causes the V2TM
control scheme to compensate the duty cycle. Since the
change in inductor current modifies the ramp signal, as in
current mode control, the V2TM control scheme has the same
advantages in line transient response.
A change in load current will have an affect on the output
voltage, altering the ramp signal. A load step immediately
changes the state of the comparator output, which controls
the main switch. Load transient response is determined
only by the comparator response time and the transition
speed of the main switch. The reaction time to an output
load step has no relation to the crossover frequency of the
error signal loop, as in traditional control methods.
The error signal loop can have a low crossover frequency,
since transient response is handled by the ramp signal loop.
The main purpose of this ‘slow’ feedback loop is to provide
DC accuracy. Noise immunity is significantly improved,
since the error amplifier bandwidth can be rolled off at a low
frequency. Enhanced noise immunity improves remote sensing of the output voltage, since the noise associated with
long feedback traces can be effectively filtered.
Line and load regulation are drastically improved because
there are two independent voltage loops. A voltage mode
controller relies on a change in the error signal to compensate for a deviation in either line or load voltage. This
Start Up
Until the voltage on the VCC1 supply pin exceeds the 3.9V
monitor threshold, the soft start and gate pins are held low.
The FAULT latch is reset (no Fault condition). The output
of the error amplifier (COMP) is pulled up to 1V by the
comparator clamp. When the VCC1 pin exceeds the monitor
threshold, the GateH output is activated, and the soft start
capacitor begins charging. The GateH output will remain
on, enabling the NFET switch, until terminated by either
the PWM comparator, or the maximum on time timer.
If the maximum on time is exceeded before the regulator
output voltage achieves the 1V level, the pulse is terminated. The GateH pin drives low, and the GateL pin drives
high for the duration of the extended off time. This time is
set by the time out timer and is approximately equal to the
maximum on time, resulting in a 50% duty cycle. The
GateL pin will then drive low, the GateH pin will drive
high, and the cycle repeats.
When regulator output voltage achieves the 1V level present at the COMP pin, regulation has been achieved and
normal off time will ensue. The PWM comparator termi6
nates the switch on time, with off time set by the COFF
capacitor. The V2TM control loop will adjust switch duty
cycle as required to ensure the regulator output voltage
tracks the output of the error amplifier.
The soft start and COMP capacitors will charge to their
final levels, providing a controlled turn on of the regulator
output. Regulator turn on time is determined by the COMP
capacitor charging to its final value. Its voltage is limited
by the soft start COMP clamp and the voltage on the soft
start pin (see Figures 2 and 3).

Normal Operation
During normal operation, switch off time is constant and
set by the COFF capacitor. Switch on time is adjusted by the
V2TM control loop to maintain regulation. This results in
changes in regulator switching frequency, duty cycle, and
output ripple in response to changes in load and line.
Output voltage ripple will be determined by inductor ripple current working into the ESR of the output capacitors
(see Figures 5 and 6).

Transient Response
The CS5158 V2TM control loop’s 100ns reaction time provides unprecedented transient response to changes in input
voltage or output current. Pulse by pulse adjustment of
duty cycle is provided to quickly ramp the inductor current
to the required level. Since the inductor current cannot be
changed instantaneously, regulation is maintained by the
output capacitor(s) during the time required to slew the
inductor current.
For best transient response, a combination of a number of
high frequency and bulk output capacitors are usually
used.
If the maximum on time is exceeded while responding to a
sudden increase in load current, a normal off time occurs to
prevent saturation of the output inductor.

Protection and Monitoring Features
VCC1 Monitor
To maintain predictable startup and shutdown characteristics an internal VCC1 monitor circuit is used to prevent the
part from operating below 3.75V minimum startup. The
VCC1 monitor comparator provides hysteresis and guarantees a 3.70V minimum shutdown threshold.

Short Circuit Protection
A lossless hiccup mode short circuit protection feature is
provided, requiring only the soft start capacitor to implement. If a short circuit condition occurs (VFFB < 1V), the VFFB
low comparator sets the FAULT latch. This causes the top
MOSFET to shut off, disconnecting the regulator from it’s
input voltage. The soft start capacitor is then slowly discharged by a 2µA current source until it reaches it’s lower
0.7V threshold. The regulator will then attempt to restart normally, operating in it’s extended off time mode with a 50%
duty cycle, while the soft start capacitor is charged with a
60µA charge current.
If the short circuit condition persists, the regulator output
will not achieve the 1V low VFFB comparator threshold
before the soft start capacitor is charged to it’s upper 2.5V
threshold. If this happens the cycle will repeat itself until the
short is removed. The soft start charge/discharge current
ratio sets the duty cycle for the pulses (2µA/60µA = 3.3%),
while actual duty cycle is half that due to the extended off
time mode (1.65%).
This protection feature results in less stress to the regulator
components, input power supply, and PC board traces
than occurs with constant current limit protection (see
Figures 10 and 11).
If the short circuit condition is removed, output voltage
will rise above the 1V level, preventing the FAULT latch
from being set, allowing normal operation to resume.

Overvoltage Protection
Overvoltage protection (OVP) is provided as result of the
normal operation of the V2TM control topology and requires
no additional external components. The control loop
responds to an overvoltage condition within 100ns, causing
the top MOSFET to shut off, disconnecting the regulator
from it’s input voltage. The bottom MOSFET is then activated, resulting in a “crowbar” action to clamp the output
voltage and prevent damage to the load (see Figures 12 and
13). The regulator will remain in this state until the overvoltage condition ceases or the input voltage is pulled low.
The bottom FET and board trace must be properly
designed to implement the OVP function.

power components to optimize the cost and performance of
a particular design. The following information can be used

NFET Power Transistors
Both logic level and standard MOSFETs can be used. The
reference designs derive gate drive from the 12V supply
which is generally available in most computer systems and
utilize logic level MOSFETs. Multiple MOSFETs may be
paralleled to reduce losses and improve efficiency and thermal management.
Voltage applied to the MOSFET gates depends on the
application circuit used. Both upper and lower gate driver
outputs are specified to drive to within 1.5V of ground
when in the low state and to within 2V of their respective
bias supplies when in the high state. In practice, the MOSFET gates will be driven rail to rail due to overshoot caused
by the capacitive load they present to the controller IC. For
the typical application where VCC1 = VCC2 = 12V and 5V is
External Power Good Circuit
An optional Power Good signal can be generated through
the use of four additional external components (see Figure
15). The threshold voltage of the Power Good signal can be
adjusted per the following equation:

Schottky Diode for Synchronous MOSFET
A Schottky diode may be placed in parallel with the synchronous MOSFET to conduct the inductor current upon
turn off of the switching MOSFET to improve efficiency.
The CS5158 reference circuit does not use this device due to
it’s excellent design. Instead, the body diode of the synchronous MOSFET is utilized to reduce cost and conducts
the inductor current. For a design operating at 200kHz or so,
the low non-overlap time combined with Schottky forward
recovery time may make the benefits of this device not
worth the additional expense (see Figure 6, channel 2). The
power dissipation in the synchronous MOSFET due to body
diode conduction can be estimated by the following equation:
Trace 3 = VGATE(H) (10V/div.)
Math 1= VGATE(H) - 5VIN
Trace 4 = VGATE(L) (10V/div.)
Trace 2 = Inductor Switching Node (5V/div.)
Power = Vbd × ILOAD × conduction time × switching frequency
Where Vbd = the forward drop of the MOSFET body diode.
For the CS5158 demonstration board as shown in Figure 6;
Figure 17: CS5158 gate drive waveforms depicting rail to rail swing.
Power = 1.6V × 13A × 100ns × 233kHz = 0.48W
The most important aspect of MOSFET performance is
RDSON, which effects regulator efficiency and MOSFET
thermal management requirements.
The power dissipated by the MOSFETs may be estimated
as follows;
Switching MOSFET:
Power = ILOAD2 × RDSON × duty cycle
This is only 1.3% of the 36.4W being delivered to the load.
Input and Output Capacitors
These components must be selected and placed carefully to
yield optimal results. Capacitors should be chosen to provide acceptable ripple on the input supply lines and regulator output voltage. Key specifications for input capacitors
are their ripple rating, while ESR is important for output
capacitors. For best transient response, a combination of
low value/high frequency and bulk capacitors placed close
to the load will be required.
Synchronous MOSFET:
Power = ILOAD2 × RDSON × (1 - duty cycle)
Duty Cycle =
VOUT + (ILOAD × RDSON OF SYNCH FET)
VIN + (ILOAD × RDSON OF SYNCH FET) - (ILOAD × RDSON OF SWITCH FET)
Output Inductor
The inductor should be selected based on its inductance,
current capability, and DC resistance. Increasing the inductor value will decrease output voltage ripple, but degrade
transient response.
Off Time Capacitor (COFF)
The COFF timing capacitor sets the regulator off time:
TOFF = COFF × 4848.5
Thermal Management
When the VFFB pin is less than 1V, the current charging the
COFF capacitor is reduced. The extended off time can be calculated as follows:
TOFF = COFF × 24,242.5.
Off time will be determined by either the TOFF time, or the
time out timer, whichever is longer.
The preceding equations for duty cycle can also be used to
calculate the regulator switching frequency and select the
COFF timing capacitor:
Thermal Considerations for Power MOSFETs and Diodes
In order to maintain good reliability, the junction temperature of the semiconductor components should be kept to a
maximum of 150°C or lower. The thermal impedance (junction to ambient) required to meet this requirement can be
calculated as follows:

possible and connect the ground terminal to pin 14 (LGnd).
6. Connect the VFB pin directly to the load with a separate

7. Place 5V input capacitors close to the switching MOSFET
and synchronous MOSFET.
Route gate drive signals VGATE(H) (pin 10) and VGATE(L)
(pin 12 when used) with traces that are a minimum of 0.025
inches wide.
A heatsink may be added to TO-220 components to reduce
their thermal impedance. A number of PC board layout
techniques such as thermal vias and additional copper foil
area can be used to improve the power handling capability
of surface mount components.
EMI Management
As a consequence of large currents being turned on and off
at high frequency, switching regulators generate noise as a
consequence of their normal operation. When designing for
compliance with EMI/EMC regulations, additional components may be added to reduce noise emissions. These components are not required for regulator operation and experimental results may allow them to be eliminated. The input
filter inductor may not be required because bulk filter and
bypass capacitors, as well as other loads located on the
board will tend to reduce regulator di/dt effects on the circuit board and input power supply. Placement of the
power component to minimize routing distance will also
help to reduce emissions.
