All Rights Reserved. 8 MP2162 – 2A, 6V, 1.5MHz SYNCHRONOUS STEP-DOWN SWITCHER OPERATION MP2162 uses constant on-time control with input voltage feed forward to stabilize the switching frequency over full input range. At light load, MP2162 employs a proprietary control of low side switch and inductor current to eliminate ringing on switching node and improve efficiency. Constant On-time Control Compare to fixed frequency PWM control, constant on-time control offers the advantage of simpler control loop and faster transient response. By using input voltage feed forward, MP2162 maintains a nearly constant switching frequency across input and output voltage range. The ontime of the switching pulse can be estimated as: TON = VOUT ⋅ 0.667μs VIN To prevent inductor current run away during load transient, MP2162 fixes the minimum off time to be 60ns. However, this minimum off time limit will not affect operation of MP2162 in steady state in any way. Light Load Operation In light load condition, MP2162 uses a proprietary control scheme to save power and improve efficiency. The MP2162 will turn off the low side switch when inductor current starts to reverse. Then MP2162 works in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) operation. Enable When input voltage is greater than the undervoltage lockout threshold (UVLO), typically 2.3V, MP2162 can be enabled by pulling EN pin to higher than 1.2V. Leaving EN pin float or pull down to ground will disable MP2162. There is MP2162 Rev. 1.01 11/12/2013 an internal 1Meg Ohm resistor from EN pin to ground. Soft Start MP2162 has built-in soft start that ramps up the output voltage in a controlled slew rate, avoiding overshoot at startup. The soft start time is about 1.5ms typical. Power GOOD Indictor MP2162 has an open drain with 550kΩ pull-up resistor pin for power good indicator PGOOD. When FB pin is within +/-10% of regulation voltage, i.e. 0.6V, PGOOD pin is pulled up to IN by the internal resistor. If FB pin voltage is out of the +/-10% window, PGOOD pin is pulled down to ground by an internal MOS FET. The MOS FET has a maximum Rdson of less than 100 Ohm. Current limit MP2162 has a typical 3.2A current limit for the high side switch. When the high side switch hits current limit, MP2162 will touch the hiccup threshold until the current lower down. This will prevent inductor current from continuing to build up which will result in damage of the components. Short Circuit and Recovery MP2162 enters short circuit protection mode also when the current limit is hit, and tries to recover from short circuit with hiccup mode. In short circuit protection, MP2162 will disable output power stage, discharge soft-start cap and then automatically try to soft-start again. If the short circuit condition still holds after softstart ends, MP2162 repeats this operation cycle till short circuit disappears and output rises back to regulation level. www.MonolihicPower.com MPS Proprietary Information.

The feedback resistor R1 can not be too large neither too small considering the trade-off for stability and dynamic. Choose R1 to be around 120kΩ to 200kΩ. R2 is then given by: R2 = R1 Vout −1 0.6 The feedback circuit is shown as Figure 2. Vout MP2162 R1 FB R2 Figure 2: Feedback Network Table 1 lists the recommended resistors value for common output voltages. Table 1—Resistor Selection for Common Output Voltages VOUT (V) R1 (kΩ) R2 (kΩ) 1.0 1.2 1.8 2.5 3.3 200(1%) 200(1%) 200(1%) 200(1%) 200(1%) 300(1%) 200(1%) 100(1%) 63.2(1%) 44.2(1%) Selecting the Inductor A 0.68µH to 2.2µH inductor is recommended for most applications. For highest efficiency, the inductor DC resistance should be less than 15mΩ. For most designs, the inductance value can be derived from the following equation. L1 = VOUT × (VIN − VOUT ) VIN × ΔIL × fOSC Where ΔIL is the inductor ripple current. MP2162 Rev. 1.01 11/12/2013 Choose inductor current to be approximately 30% of the maximum load current. The maximum inductor peak current is: IL(MAX) = ILOAD + ΔI L 2 Selecting the Input Capacitor The input current to the step-down converter is discontinuous, therefore a capacitor is required to supply the AC current to the step-down converter while maintaining the DC input voltage. Use low ESR capacitors for the best performance. Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics are highly recommended because of their low ESR and small temperature coefficients. For most applications, a 10µF capacitor is sufficient. For higher output voltage, 47uF may be needed for more stable system. Since the input capacitor absorbs the input switching current it requires an adequate ripple current rating. The RMS current in the input capacitor can be estimated by: I C1 = ILOAD × VOUT ⎛⎜ VOUT × 1− VIN ⎜⎝ VIN ⎞ ⎟ ⎟ ⎠ The worse case condition occurs at VIN = 2VOUT, where: IC1 = ILOAD 2 For simplification, choose the input capacitor whose RMS current rating greater than half of the maximum load current. The input capacitor can be electrolytic, tantalum or ceramic. When using electrolytic or tantalum capacitors, a small and high quality ceramic capacitor, i.e. 0.1μF, should be placed as close to the IC as possible. When using ceramic capacitors, make sure that they have enough capacitance to provide sufficient charge to prevent excessive voltage ripple at input. The input voltage ripple caused by capacitance can be estimated by: ΔVIN = ⎛ ⎞ ILOAD V V × OUT × ⎜ 1 − OUT ⎟ fS × C1 VIN ⎝ VIN ⎠ www.MonolihicPower.com MPS Proprietary Information. Patent Protected. Unauthorized Photocopy and Duplication Prohibited. © 2013 MPS. All Rights Reserved. 10 MP2162 – 2A, 6V, 1.5MHz SYNCHRONOUS STEP-DOWN SWITCHER ΔVOUT = ⎞ VOUT ⎛ VOUT ⎞ ⎛ 1 × ⎜1 − ⎟ ⎟ × ⎜ RESR + fS × L1 ⎝ VIN ⎠ ⎝ 8 × fS × C2 ⎠ Where L1 is the inductor value and RESR is the equivalent series resistance (ESR) value of the output capacitor. Using ceramic capacitors, the impedance at the switching frequency is dominated by the capacitance. The output voltage ripple is mainly caused by the capacitance. For simplification, the output voltage ripple can be estimated by: ΔVOUT ⎛ V ⎞ VOUT = × ⎜ 1 − OUT ⎟ 2 VIN ⎠ 8 × fS × L1 × C2 ⎝ In the case of tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, the ESR dominates the impedance at the switching frequency. For simplification, the output ripple can be approximated to: ΔVOUT V V ⎛ ⎞ = OUT × ⎜ 1 − OUT ⎟ × RESR fS × L1 ⎝ VIN ⎠ The characteristics of the output capacitor also affect the stability of the regulation system. PCB Layout Proper layout of the switching power supplies is very important, and sometimes critical for proper function. For the high-frequency switching converter, poor layout design can result in poor line or load regulation and stability issues. The high current paths (GND, IN and SW) should be placed very close to the device with short, direct and wide traces. The input capacitor needs to be as close as possible to the IN and GND pins. The external feedback resistors should be placed next to the FB pin. Keep the switching node SW short and away from the feedback network. EN PG AGND R2 R1 Selecting the Output Capacitor The output capacitor (C2) is required to maintain the DC output voltage. Ceramic capacitors are recommended. Low ESR capacitors are preferred to keep the output voltage ripple low. The output voltage ripple can be estimated by: 1 8 2 7 3 6 4 5 C1 C2 SW OUT GND VIN Figure 3: PCB Layout Recommendation Design Example Below is a design example following the application guidelines for the specifications: Table 2: Design Example 5V VIN 1.2V VOUT 1500kHz fSW The detailed application schematic is shown in Figure 4.
