This high voltage controller contains a PFET gate driver and a high voltage bias regulator which operates over a wide 4.5V to 42V input range. The constant on-time regulation principle requires no loop compensation, simplifies circuit implementation, and results in ultrafast load transient response. The operating frequency remains nearly constant with line and load variations due to the inverse relationship between the input voltage and the on-time. The PFET architecture allows 100% duty cycle operation for a low dropout voltage. Either the RDS(ON) of the PFET or an external sense resistor can be used to sense current for overcurrent detection. 1 • • • • • • • • • • • • LM25085-Q1 is an Automotive Grade product that is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 Qualified (-40°C to 125°C Operating Junction Temperature) Wide 4.5V to 42V Input Voltage Range Adjustable Current Limit Using RDS(ON) or a Current Sense Resistor Programmable Switching Frequency to 1MHz No Loop Compensation Required Ultra-Fast Transient Response Nearly Constant Operating Frequency with Line and Load Variations Adjustable Output Voltage from 1.25V Precision ±2% Feedback Reference Capable of 100% Duty Cycle Operation Internal Soft-Start Timer Integrated High Voltage Bias Regulator Thermal Shutdown 2 Applications • • • Device Information(1) PART NUMBER LM25085-Q1 LM25085 Automotive Infotainment Battery/Super Capacitor Chargers LED Drivers PACKAGE BODY SIZE (NOM) HVSSOP (8) 3.00 mm x 3.00 mm VSSOP (8) 3.00 mm x 3.00 mm WSON (8) 3.00 mm x 3.00 mm HVSSOP (8) 3.00 mm x 3.00 mm (1) For all available packages, see the orderable addendum at the end of the datasheet.

The input operating voltage range of the LM25085 is 4.5V to 42V. The use of a PFET in a buck regulator greatly simplifies the gate drive requirements and allows for 100% duty cycle operation to extend the regulation range when operating at low input voltage. However, PFET transistors typically have higher on-resistance and gate charge when compared to similarly rated NFET transistors. Consideration of available PFETs, input voltage range, gate drive capability of the LM25085, and thermal resistances indicate an upper limit of 10A for the load current for LM25085 applications. Constant on-time control is implemented using an on-time one-shot that is triggered by the feedback signal. During the off-time, when the PFET (Q1) is off, the load current is supplied by the inductor and the output capacitor. As the output voltage falls, the voltage at the feedback comparator input (FB) falls below the regulation threshold. When this occurs Q1 is turned on for the one-shot period which is determined by the input voltage (VIN) and the RT resistor. During the on-time the increasing inductor current increases the voltage at FB above the feedback comparator threshold. For a buck regulator the basic relationship between the on-time, off-time, input voltage and output voltage is: Duty Cycle = VOUT VIN = tON tON + tOFF = tON x FS where • Fs is the switching frequency (1) Equation 1 is valid only in continuous conduction mode (inductor current does not reach zero). Since the LM25085 controls the on-time inversely proportional to VIN, the switching frequency remains relatively constant as VIN is varied. If the input voltage falls to a level that is equal to or less than the regulated output voltage Q1 is held on continuously (100% duty cycle) and VOUT is approximately equal to VIN. The COT control scheme, with the feedback signal applied to a comparator rather than an error amplifier, requires no loop compensation, resulting in very fast load transient response. The LM25085 is available in both an 8 pin HVSSOP-PowerPAD package and an 8 pin WSON package with an exposed pad to aid in heat dissipation. An 8 pin VSSOP package without an exposed pad is also available. 7.2 Functional Block Diagram 4.5V to 42V Input VIN GND VIN CIN Negative Bias Regulator 7.7V CBYP + - 0.73V + + VCC CVCC CADJ Thermal Shutdown RT RT LM25085 VIN RADJ VCC UVLO ON Time One-Shot Gate Driver RSEN PGATE Q1 SHUTDOWN VCC 1.25V Soft-Start Gate Driver Control Logic L1 COUT 40 PA GND + QS - R REGULATION COMPARATOR 1.6V - OFF Time One-Shot + OVER-VOLTAGE COMPARATOR VIN VOUT R3 C1 ADJ D1 + - C2 RFB2 ISEN RFB1 CURRENT LIMIT COMPARATOR FB Sense resistor method shown for current limit detection.

When the FB pin voltage falls below the feedback reference, Q1 is switched on for a time period determined by the input voltage and a programming resistor (RT). Following the on-time Q1 remains off until the FB voltage falls below the reference. Q1 is then switched on for another on-time period. The output voltage is set by the feedback resistors (RFB1, RFB2 in Functional Block Diagram. The regulated output voltage is calculated as follows: VOUT = 1.25V x (RFB2+ RFB1)/ RFB1 (2) The feedback voltage supplied to the FB pin is applied to a comparator rather than a linear amplifier. For proper operation sufficient ripple amplitude is necessary at the FB pin to switch the comparator at regular intervals with minimum delay and noise susceptibility. This ripple is normally obtained from the output voltage ripple attenuated through the feedback resistors. The output voltage ripple is a result of the inductor’s ripple current passing through the output capacitor’s ESR, or through a resistor in series with the output capacitor. Multiple methods are available to ensure sufficient ripple is supplied to the FB pin, and three different configurations are discussed in Alternate Output Ripple Configurations. When in regulation, the LM25085 operates in continuous conduction mode at medium to heavy load currents and discontinuous conduction mode at light load currents. In continuous conduction mode the inductor’s current is always greater than zero, and the operating frequency remains relatively constant with load and line variations. The minimum load current for continuous conduction mode is one-half the inductor’s ripple current amplitude. In discontinuous conduction mode, where the inductor’s current reaches zero during the off-time, the operating frequency is lower than in continuous conduction mode and varies with load current. Conversion efficiency is maintained at light loads since the switching losses are reduced with the reduction in load and frequency. If the voltage at the FB pin exceeds 1.6V due to a transient overshoot or excessive ripple at VOUT the internal over-voltage comparator immediately switches off Q1. The next on-time period starts when the voltage at FB falls below the feedback reference voltage. 7.3.2 On-Time Timer The on-time of the PFET gate drive output (PGATE pin) is determined by the resistor (RT) and the input voltage (VIN), and is calculated from: -7 tON = 1.45 x 10 x (RT + 1.4) (VIN - 1.56V + RT/3167) + 50 ns where • RT is in kΩ (3) The minimum on-time, which occurs at maximum VIN, should not be set less than 150ns (see Current Limiting). The buck regulator effective on-time, measured at the SW node (junction of Q1, L1, and D1) is typically longer than that calculated in Equation 3 due to the asymmetric delay of the PFET. The on-time difference caused by the PFET switching delay can be estimated as the difference of the turn-off and turn-on delays listed in the PFET data sheet. Measuring the difference between the on-time at the PGATE pin versus the SW node in the actual application circuit is also recommended. In continuous conduction mode, the inverse relationship of tON with VIN results in a nearly constant switching frequency as VIN is varied. The operating frequency can be calculated from: FS = VOUT x (VIN - 1.56V + RT/3167) -7 VIN x [(1.45 x 10 x (RT + 1.4)) + (tD x (VIN - 1.56V + RT/3167))] where • • 12 RT is in kΩ tD is equal to 50ns plus the PFET’s delay difference Submit Documentation Feedback (4) Copyright © 2008–2014, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM25085 LM25085-Q1 LM25085, LM25085-Q1 www.ti.com SNVS593J – OCTOBER 2008 – REVISED NOVEMBER 2014 Feature Description (continued) To set a specific continuous conduction mode switching frequency (FS), the RT resistor is determined from the following: where • RT is in kΩ (5) A simplified version of Equation 5 at VIN = 12V, and tD = 100ns, is: RT = VOUT x 6 x 106 - 8.6 FS (6) For VIN = 42V and tD = 100ns, the simplified equation is: (7) 7.3.3 Shutdown The LM25085 can be shutdown by grounding the RT pin (see Figure 22). In this mode the PFET is held off, and the VCC regulator is disabled. The internal operating current is reduced to the value shown in Figure 3. The shutdown threshold at the RT pin is ≊0.73V, with ≊50mV of hysteresis. Releasing the pin enables normal operation. The RT pin must not be forced high during normal operation. VIN Input Voltage LM25085 RT RT STOP RUN Figure 22. Shutdown Implementation 7.3.4 Current Limiting The LM25085 current limiting operates by sensing the voltage across either the RDS(ON) of Q1, or a sense resistor, during the on-time and comparing it to the voltage across the resistor RADJ (see Figure 23). The current limit function is much more accurate and stable over temperature when a sense resistor is used. The RDS(ON) of a MOSFET has a wide process variation and a large temperature coefficient. If the voltage across RDS(ON) of Q1, or the sense resistor, is greater than the voltage across RADJ, the current limit comparator switches to turn off Q1. Current sensing is disabled for a blanking time of ≊100ns at the beginning of the on-time to prevent false triggering of the current limit comparator due to leading edge current spikes. Because of the blanking time and the turn-on and turn-off delays created by the PFET, the on-time at the PGATE pin should not be set less than 150ns. An on-time shorter than that may prevent the current limit detection circuit from properly detecting an over-current condition. The duration of the subsequent forced off-time is a function of the input voltage and the voltage at the FB pin, as shown in Figure 7. The longer-than-normal forced off-time allows the inductor current to decrease to a low level before the next on-time. This cycle-by-cycle monitoring, followed by a forced off-time, provides effective protection from output load faults over a wide range of operating conditions. The voltage across the RADJ resistor is set by an internal 40µA current sink at the ADJ pin. When using Q1’s RDS(ON) for sensing, the current at which the current limit comparator switches is calculated from: ICL = 40µA x RADJ/RDS(ON) (8) Copyright © 2008–2014, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM25085 LM25085-Q1 Submit Documentation Feedback 13 LM25085, LM25085-Q1 SNVS593J – OCTOBER 2008 – REVISED NOVEMBER 2014 www.ti.com Feature Description (continued) When using a sense resistor (RSEN) the threshold of the current limit comparator is calculated from: ICL = 40µA x RADJ/RSEN (9) When using Equation 8 or Equation 9, the tolerances for the ADJ pin current sink and the offset of the current limit comparator should be included to ensure the resulting minimum current limit is not less than the required maximum switch current. Simultaneously increasing the values of RADJ and RSEN decreases the effects of the current limit comparator offset, but at the expense of higher power dissipation. When using a sense resistor, the RSEN resistor value should be chosen within the practical limitations of power dissipation and physical size. For example, for a 10A current limit, setting RSEN = 0.005Ω results in a power dissipation as high as 0.5W. Current sense connections to the RSEN resistor, or to Q1, must be Kelvin connections to ensure accuracy. The CADJ capacitor filters noise from the ADJ pin, and helps prevent unintended switching of the current limit comparator due to input voltage transients. The recommended value for CADJ is 1000pF. 7.3.5 Current Limit Off-Time When the current through Q1 exceeds the current limit threshold, the LM25085 forces an off-time longer than the normal off-time defined by Equation 1. See Figure 7 or calculate the current limit off-time from the following equation: where • • VIN is the input voltage VFB is the voltage at the FB pin at the time current limit was detected (10) This feature is necessary to allow the inductor current to decrease sufficiently to offset the current increase which occurred during the on-time. During the on-time, the inductor current increases an amount equal to: (VIN - VOUT) x tON 'I = L (11) During the off-time the inductor current decreases due to the reverse voltage applied across the inductor by the output voltage, the freewheeling diode’s forward voltage (VFD), and the voltage drop due to the inductor’s series resistance (VESR). The current decrease is equal to: 'I = (VOUT + VFD + VESR) x tOFF L (12) The on-time in Equation 11 is shorter than the normal on-time since the PFET is shut off when the current limit threshold is crossed. If the off-time is not long enough, such that the current decrease (Equation 12) is less than the current increase (Equation 11), the current levels are higher at the start of the next on-time. This results in a further decrease in on-time, since the current limit threshold is crossed sooner. A balance is reached when the current changes in Equation 11 and Equation 12 are equal. The worst case situation is that of a direct short circuit at the output terminals, where VOUT = 0V, as that results in the largest current increase during the on-time, and the smallest decrease during the off-time. The sum of the diode’s forward voltage and the inductor’s ESR voltage must be sufficient to ensure current runaway does not occur. Using Equation 11 and Equation 12, this requirement can be stated as: VFD + VESR t 14 VIN x tON tOFF Submit Documentation Feedback (13) Copyright © 2008–2014, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM25085 LM25085-Q1 LM25085, LM25085-Q1 www.ti.com SNVS593J – OCTOBER 2008 – REVISED NOVEMBER 2014 Feature Description (continued) For tON in Equation 13 use the minimum on-time at the SW node. To determine this time period add the “Minimum on-time in current limit” specified in Electrical Characteristics (tON-4) to the difference of the turn-off and turn-on delays of the PFET. For tOFF use the value in Figure 7 or use Equation 10, where VFB is equal to zero volts. When using the minimum or maximum limits of those specifications to determine worst case situations, the tolerance of the minimum on-time (tON-4) and the current limit off-times (tOFF(CL1) through tOFF(CL4)) track each other over the process and temperature variations. A device which has an on-time at the high end of the range will have an off-time that is at the high end of its range.

Current Limit Sensing 7.3.6 VCC Regulator The VCC regulator provides a regulated voltage between the VIN and the VCC pins to provide the bias and gate current for the PFET gate driver. The 0.47µF capacitor at the VCC pin must be a low ESR capacitor, preferably ceramic as it provides the high surge current for the PFET’s gate at each turn-on. The capacitor must be located as close as possible to the VIN and VCC pins to minimize inductance in the PC board traces. Referring to Figure 4, the voltage across the VCC regulator (VIN – VCC) is equal to VIN until VIN reaches approximately 8.5V. At higher values of VIN, the voltage at the VCC pin is regulated at approximately 7.7V below VIN. If VIN drops below about 8V due to voltage transients, the VCC pin can be pulled down below GND. To prevent the negative VCC voltage from disturbing the internal circuit and causing abnormal operation, a Schottky diode is recommended between VCC pin and GND pin. The VCC regulator has a maximum current capability of at least 20mA. The regulator is disabled when the LM25085 is shutdown using the RT pin, or when the thermal shutdown is activated. 7.3.7 PGATE Driver Output The PGATE pin output swings between VIN (Q1 off) and the VCC pin voltage (Q1 on). The rise and fall times depend on the PFET gate capacitance and the source and sink currents provided by the internal gate driver. See Electrical Characteristics for the current capability of the driver. 7.3.8 P-Channel MOSFET Selection The PFET must be rated for the maximum input voltage, with some margin above that to allow for transients and ringing which can occur on the supply line and the switching node. The gate-to-source voltage (VGS) normally provided to the PFET is 7.7V for VIN greater than 8.5V. However, if the circuit is to be operated at lower values of VIN, the selected PFET must be able to fully turn-on with a VGS voltage equal to VIN. The minimum input operating voltage for the LM25085 is 4.5V.

When designing a PFET buck regulator the drain terminal is connected to the switching node. This situation requires a trade-off between thermal and EMI performance since increasing the PC board area of the switching node to aid the PFET power dissipation also increases radiated noise, possibly disrupting the circuit operation. Typically the switching node area is kept to a reasonable minimum and the PFET peak current is derated to stay within the recommended temperature rating of the PFET. The RDS(ON) of the PFET determines a portion of the power dissipation in the PFET. However, PFETs with very low RDS(ON) usually have large values of gate charge. A PFET with a higher gate charge has a corresponding slower switching speed, leading to higher switching losses and affecting the PFET power dissipation. If the PFET RDS(ON) is used for current limit detection, note that it typically has a positive temperature coefficient. At 100°C the RDS(ON) may be as much as 50% higher than the value at 25°C which could result in incorrect current limiting if not accounted for when determining the value of the RADJ resistor. The PFET Total Gate Charge determines most of the power dissipation in the LM25085 due to the repetitive charge and discharge of the PFET’s gate capacitance by the gate driver (powered from the VCC regulator). The LM25085’s internal power dissipation can be calculated from the following: PDISS = VIN x ((QG x FS) + IIN) where • • • QG is the PFET Total Gate Charge obtained from its datasheet FS is the switching frequency IIN is the LM25085's operating current obtained from Figure 2 (14) Using the Thermal Resistance specifications in Electrical Characteristics, the approximate junction temperature can be determined. If the calculated junction temperature is near the maximum operating temperature of 125°C, either the switching frequency must be reduced, or a PFET with a smaller Total Gate Charge must be used. 7.3.9 Soft-Start The internal soft-start feature of the LM25085 allows the regulator to gradually reach a steady state operating point at power up, thereby reducing startup stresses and current surges. Upon turn-on, when VCC reaches its under-voltage lockout threshold, the internal soft-start circuit ramps the feedback reference voltage from 0V to 1.25V, causing VOUT to ramp up in a proportional manner. The soft-start ramp time is typically 2.5ms. In addition to controlling the initial power up cycle, the soft-start circuit also activates when the LM25085 is enabled by releasing the RT pin, and when the circuit is shutdown and restarted by the internal Thermal Shutdown circuit. If the voltage at FB is below the regulation threshold value due to an over-current condition or a short circuit at VOUT, the internal reference voltage provided by the soft-start circuit to the regulation comparator is reduced along with FB. When the over-current or short circuit condition is removed, VOUT returns to the regulated value at a rate determined by the soft-start ramp. This feature helps prevent the output voltage from overshooting following an overload event. 7.3.10 Thermal Shutdown The LM25085 should be operated such that the junction temperature does not exceed 125°C. If the junction temperature increases above that, an internal Thermal Shutdown circuit activates at 170°C (typical) to disable the VCC regulator and the gate driver, and discharge the soft-start capacitor. This feature helps prevent catastrophic failures from accidental device overheating. When the junction temperature falls below 150°C (typical hysteresis = 20°C), the gate driver is enabled, the soft-start circuit is released, and normal operation resumes. 7.4 Device Functional Modes 7.4.1 Standby Mode with VIN <4.5 V The LM25085 is intended to operate with input voltages above 4.5 V. The minimum operating input voltage is determined by the VCC undervoltage lockout threshold of 3.8 V (typ). If VIN is too low to support a VCC voltage greater than the VCC UVLO threshhold, the controller switches to the standby mode with the PFET buck switch in the off state. 16 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2008–2014, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM25085 LM25085-Q1 LM25085, LM25085-Q1 www.ti.com SNVS593J – OCTOBER 2008 – REVISED NOVEMBER 2014 Device Functional Modes (continued) 7.4.2 RT Shutdown Mode The LM25085 is in shutdown mode when the RT pin is pulled below 0.73 V (typ). In this mode the PFET gate driver is held off, and the VCC regulator is disabled. 8 Application and Implementation NOTE Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. 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. 8.1 Application Information The LM25085/LM25085-Q1 devices are step-down DC-DC converters. The devices are typically used to convert a higher DC voltage to a lower DC voltage. Use the following design procedure to select component values. Alternately, use the WEBENCH® software to generate a complete design. The WEBENCH software uses an iterative design procedure and accesses a comprehensive database of components when generating a design. This section presents a simplified discussion of the design process. 8.2 Typical Application CVCC 7V to 42V Input LM25085 VIN VIN CIN 33 PF GND 0.47 PF VCC CBYP 1 PF CADJ 1000 pF ADJ RT 90.9 k: RADJ RSEN 2.1 k: 0.01: ISEN RT SHUTDOWN L1 15 PH PGATE VOUT Q1 D1 GND R3 66.5 k: C2 0.1 PF FB C1 3300 pF RFB2 10 k: 5V COUT 100 PF GND RFB1 3.4 k: Figure 24. LM25085 Typical Application 8.2.1 Design Requirements The procedure for calculating the external components is illustrated with the following design example.

The ratio of these resistors is calculated from: RFB2/RFB1 = (VOUT/1.25V) - 1 (15) For this example, RFB2 / RFB1 = 3. Typically, RFB1 and RFB2 should be chosen from standard value resistors in the range of 1kΩ to 20kΩ which satisfy the above ratio. For this example, RFB2 = 10kΩ, and RFB1 = 3.4kΩ. 8.2.2.2 RT, PFET Before selecting the RT resistor, the PFET must be selected as its turn-on and turn-off delays affect the calculated value of RT. For the Vishay Si7465 PFET, the difference of its typical turn-off and turn-on delays is 57ns. Using Equation 5 at nominal input voltage, RT calculates to be: RT = 5 x (12 - 1.56V) -7 1.45 x 10 x 12 x 300 kHz - (50 ns + 57 ns) x (12 - 1.56V) 1.45 x 10 -7 - 1.4= 90.9 (16) A standard value 90.9kΩ resistor is selected. Using Equation 3 the minimum on-time at the PGATE pin, which occurs at maximum input voltage (42V), is calculated to be 381ns. This minimum one-shot period is sufficiently longer than the minimum recommended value of 150ns. The minimum on-time at the SW node (junction of Q1, D1, L1) is longer due to the delay added by the PFET (57ns). Therefore the minimum SW node on-time is 438ns at 42V. The maximum on-time at the SW node is calculated to be 2.55µs at 7V. 8.2.2.3 L1 The main parameter controlled by the inductor value is the current ripple amplitude (IOR). See Figure 25. The minimum load current for continuous conduction mode is used to determine the maximum allowable ripple such that the inductor current valley does not fall to zero. Continuous conduction mode operation at minimum load current is not a requirement of the LM25085, but serves as a guideline for selecting L1. For this example, the maximum ripple current is: IOR(max) = 2 x IOUT(min) = 1.2 Amp (17) If the minimum load current of the application is zero, a good initial estimate for the maximum ripple current (IOR(max)) is 20% of the maximum load current. The ripple calculated in Equation 17 is then used in the following equation to calculate L1: tON(min) x (VIN(max) - VOUT) L1 = = 13.5 PH IOR(max) (18) IPK IOUT IOR 1/FS SW Node Inductor Current A standard value 15µH inductor is selected. Using this inductance value, the maximum ripple current amplitude, which occurs at maximum input voltage, is calculated to be 1.08 Ap-p. The peak current (IPK) at maximum load current is 5.54A. However, the current rating of the selected inductor must be based on the maximum current limit value calculated below. Figure 25.

A standard value 10mΩ resistor is selected for RSEN, resulting in a 50mV drop at maximum load current, and a maximum 0.25W power dissipation in the resistor. Since the LM25085 uses peak current detection, the minimum value for the current limit threshold must be equal to the maximum load current (5A) plus half the maximum ripple amplitude calculated above: ICL(min) = 5A + 1.08A/2 = 5.54A (19) At this current level the voltage across RSEN is 55.4mV. Adding the current limit comparator offset of 9mV (max) increases the required current limit threshold to 6.44A. Using Equation 9 with the minimum value for the ADJ pin current (32µA), the required RADJ resistor is calculated to be: RADJ = 6.44A x 0.01: = 2.01 k: 32 PA (20) A standard value 2.1kΩ resistor is selected. The nominal current limit threshold is: ICL(nom) = (2.1 k: x 40 PA) 0.01: = 8.4A (21) Using the tolerances for the ADJ pin current and the current limit comparator offset, the maximum current limit threshold is calculated to be: (2.1 k: x 48 PA) + 9 mV = 11A ICL(max) = 0.01: (22) The minimum current limit threshold is: (2.1 k: x 32 PA) - 9 mV = 5.82A ICL(min) = 0.01: (23) The load current in each case is equal to the current limit threshold minus half the current ripple amplitude. The recommended value of 1000pF for CADJ is used in this example. 8.2.2.5 COUT Since the maximum allowed output ripple voltage is very low in this example (5mVp-p), the minimum ripple configuration (R3, C1, and C2 in the Functional Block Diagram) must be used. The resulting ripple at VOUT is then due to the inductor’s ripple current passing through COUT. This capacitor’s value can be selected based on the maximum allowable ripple voltage at VOUT, or based on transient response requirements. The following calculation, based on ripple voltage, provides a first order result for the value of COUT: IOR(max) COUT = 8 x FS x VRIPPLE (24) where IOR(max) is the maximum ripple current calculated above, and VRIPPLE is the allowable ripple at VOUT. COUT = 1.08A = 90 PF 8 x 300 kHz x 0.005V (25) A 100µF capacitor is selected. Typically the ripple amplitude will be higher than the calculations indicate due to the capacitor’s ESR. 8.2.2.6 R3, C1, C2 The minimum ripple configuration uses these three components to generate the ripple voltage required at the FB pin since there is insufficient ripple at VOUT. A minimum of 25mVp-p must be applied to the FB pin to obtain stable constant frequency operation. R3 and C1 are selected to generate a sawtooth waveform at their junction, and that waveform is AC coupled to the FB pin via C2. The values of the three components are determined using the following procedure: Copyright © 2008–2014, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM25085 LM25085-Q1 Submit Documentation Feedback 19 LM25085, LM25085-Q1 SNVS593J – OCTOBER 2008 – REVISED NOVEMBER 2014 www.ti.com Typical Application (continued) First calculate VA = VOUT - (VSW x (1 – (VOUT/VIN(min)))) where VSW is the absolute value of the voltage at the SW node during the off-time, typically 0.5V to 1V depending on the diode D1. Using a typical value of 0.65V, VA calculates to 4.81V. VA is the nominal DC voltage at the R3/C1 junction, and is used in the next equation to calculate the R-C product: (VIN(min) - VA) x tON R3 x C1 = 'V (26) where tON is the maximum on-time (at minimum input voltage), and ΔV is the desired ripple amplitude at the R3/C1 junction. For ripple voltage of 25 mVp-p: R3 x C1 = (7V - 4.81V) x 2.55 Ps -4 = 2.23 x 10 0.025V (27) R3 and C1 are then selected from standard value components to produce the product calculated above. Typical values for C1 are 3000pF to 10,000pF, and R3 is typically from 10kΩ to 300kΩ. C2 is then chosen large compared to C1, typically 0.1µF. For this example, 3300pF is chosen for C1, requiring R3 to be 67.7kΩ. A standard value 66.5kΩ resistor is selected. 8.2.2.7 Alternate Output Ripple Configurations The minimum ripple configuration with C1, C2 and R3 in the example circuit, Figure 24, results in a low ripple amplitude at VOUT determined mainly by the characteristics of the output capacitor and the ripple current in L1. This configuration allows multiple ceramic capacitors to be used for VOUT if the output voltage is provided to several places on the PC board. However, if a slightly higher level of ripple at VOUT is acceptable in the application, and distributed capacitance is not used, the ripple required for the FB comparator pin can be generated with fewer external components using the circuits shown in Figure 26 and Figure 27. 8.2.2.7.1 Reduced Ripple Configuration In Figure 26, R3, C1 and C2 are removed (compared to Layout Example). A low value resistor (R4) is added in series with COUT, and a capacitor (Cff) is added across RFB2. Ripple is generated at VOUT by the inductor’s ripple current flowing through R4, and that ripple voltage is passed to the FB pin via Cff. The ripple at VOUT can be set as low as 25mVp-p since it is not attenuated by RFB2 and RFB1. The minimum value for R4 is calculated from: R4 = 25 mV IOR(min) (28) where IOR(min) is the minimum ripple current, which occurs at minimum input voltage. The minimum value for Cff is determined from: 3 x tON(max) Cff = (RFB1//RFB2) (29) where tON(max) is the maximum on-time, which occurs at minimum VIN. The next larger standard value capacitor should be used for Cff. 20 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2008–2014, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM25085 LM25085-Q1 LM25085, LM25085-Q1 www.ti.com SNVS593J – OCTOBER 2008 – REVISED NOVEMBER 2014 Typical Application (continued) LM25085 L1 PGATE VOUT Q1 D1 Cff RFB2 R4 FB COUT GND RFB1 GND Figure 26.

Lowest Cost Ripple Generating Configuration 8.2.2.8 CIN, CBYP These capacitors limit the voltage ripple at VIN by supplying most of the switch current during the on-time. At maximum load current, when Q1 is switched on, the current through Q1 suddenly increases to the lower peak of the inductor’s ripple current, then ramps up to the upper peak, and then drops to zero at turn-off. The average current during the on-time is the load current. For a worst case calculation, these capacitors must supply this average load current during the maximum on-time, while limiting the voltage drop at VIN. For this example, 0.5V is selected as the maximum allowable droop at VIN.

Due to the ESR of CIN, the ripple at VIN will likely be higher than the calculation indicates, and therefore it may be desirable to increase CIN to 47µF or 68µF. CBYP must be located as close as possible to the VIN and GND pins of the LM25085. The voltage rating for both capacitors must be at least 42V. The RMS ripple current rating for the input capacitors must also be considered. A good approximation for the required ripple current rating is IRMS > IOUT/2. 8.2.2.9 D1 A Schottky diode is recommended. Ultra-fast recovery diodes are not recommended as the high speed transitions at the SW node may affect the regulator’s operation due to diode reverse recovery transients. The diode must be rated for the maximum input voltage, and the worst case current limit level. The average power dissipation in the diode is calculated from: PD1 = VF x IOUT x (1-D) (32) where VF is the diode forward voltage drop, and D is the on-time duty cycle. Using Equation 1, the minimum duty cycle occurs at maximum input voltage, and is calculated to be ≊11.9% in this example. The diode power dissipation calculates to be: PD1 = 0.65V x 5A x (1- 0.119) = 2.86W (33) 8.2.2.10 CVCC The capacitor at the VCC pin (from VIN to VCC) provides not only noise filtering and stability for the VCC regulator, but also provides the surge current for the PFET gate drive. The typical recommended value for CVCC is 0.47µF. A good quality, low ESR, ceramic capacitor is recommended. CVCC must be located as close as possible to the VIN and VCC pins. If the selected PFET has a Total Gate Charge specification of 100nC or larger, or if the circuit is required to operate at input voltages below 7V, a larger capacitor may be required. The maximum recommended value for CVCC is 1µF. 8.2.2.11 IC Power Dissipation The maximum power dissipated in the LM25085 package is calculated using Equation 14 at the maximum input voltage. The Total Gate Charge for the Si7465 PFET is specified to be 40nC (max) in the data sheet. Therefore the total power dissipation within the LM25085 is calculated to be: PDISS = 42V x ((40nC x 300kHz) + 1.3mA) = 559mW (34) Using an HVSSOP-PowerPAD-8 package with a θJA of 46°C/W produces a temperature rise of 26°C from junction to ambient. 22 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2008–2014, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM25085 LM25085-Q1 LM25085, LM25085-Q1 www.ti.com SNVS593J – OCTOBER 2008 – REVISED NOVEMBER 2014 Typical Application (continued) 8.2.3 Application Curves Figure 28.

This input supply must be well regulated. If the input supply is located more than a few inches from the device, additional bulk capacitance may be required at the input terminals of the converter in addition to the calculated values to limit the inductive spikes due to the input cables or wires. 10 Layout 10.1 Layout Guidelines In most applications, the heat sink pad or tab of Q1 is connected to the switch node, i.e. the junction of Q1, L1 and D1. While it is common to extend the PC board pad from under these devices to aid in heat dissipation, the pad size should be limited to minimize EMI radiation from this switching node. If the PC board layout allows, a similarly sized copper pad can be placed on the underside of the PC board, and connected with as many vias as possible to aid in heat dissipation. The voltage regulation, over-voltage, and current limit comparators are very fast and can respond to short duration noise pulses. Layout considerations are therefore critical for optimum performance. The layout must be as neat and compact as possible with all the components as close as possible to their associated pins. Two major current loops conduct currents which switch very fast, requiring the loops to be as small as possible to minimize conducted and radiated EMI. The first loop is that formed by CIN, Q1, L1, COUT, and back to CIN. The second loop is that formed by D1, L1, COUT, and back to D1. The connection from the anode of D1 to the ground end of CIN must be short and direct. CIN must be as close as possible to the VIN and GND pins, and CVCC must be as close as possible to the VIN and VCC pins. If the anticipated internal power dissipation of the LM25085 will produce excessive junction temperatures during normal operation, a package option with an exposed pad must be used (HVSSOP-PowerPAD-8 or WSON-8). Effective use of the PC board ground plane can help dissipate heat. Additionally, the use of wide PC board traces, where possible, helps conduct heat away from the IC. Judicious positioning of the PC board within the end product, along with the use of any available air flow (forced or natural convection) also helps reduce the junction temperature. 10.2 Layout Example RT and ADJ Connections (Tap to CIN) VIN Keep CIN, D1, Q1 Exposed Pad on Bottom Connect to Ground Loop Small RSEN ADJ 1 8 VIN RT 2 7 VCC FB 3 6 PGATE GND 4 5 ISEN Q1 CVCC CIN L1 VOUT D1 COUT GND RFB1 Figure 32.
