The output voltage of the converter can be precisely regulated down to 800 mV $1.0% when the VFB pin is tied to VOUT. The switching frequency is internally set to 275 kHz. A high gain Operational Transconductance Error Amplifier (OTA) is used for feedback and stabilizing the loop. OUTPUT VOLTAGE (V) 10 Duty Cycle and Maximum Pulse Width Limits 8 7 DMAX = 0.8 6 DMAX = 0.7 5 4 In steady state DC operation, the duty cycle will stabilize at an operating point defined by the ratio of the input to the output voltage. The NCP3102 can achieve an 80% duty cycle. There is a built in off-time which ensures that the bootstrap supply is charged every cycle. The NCP3102, which is capable of a 100 nsec pulse width (minimum), can allow a 12 V to 0.8 V conversion at 275 kHz. The duty cycle limit and the corresponding output voltage are shown below in graphical format in Figure 10 and 12. The light gray area represents the safe operating area for the lowest maximum operational duty cycle and the dark grey area represents the absolute maximum duty cycle and corresponding output voltage. 0.8 9 3 4.5 5.5 6.5 7.5 8.5 9.5 10.5 11.5 12.5 13.5 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) Figure 11. Maximum Input to Output Voltage External Enable/Disable When the Comp Pin voltage falls or is pulled externally below the 400 mV threshold as shown in Figure 12, it disables the PWM Logic and the gate drive outputs. In this disabled mode, the operational transconductance amplifier's (EOTA) output source current is reduced and limited to the Soft-Start mode of 10 mA. Always start normal operation condition after disable mode begins by soft-start sequence. This is mentioned in the next section.

Duty Cycle to Output Voltage Normal Shutdown Behavior Normal shutdown occurs when the IC stops switching because the input supply reaches UVLO threshold. In this case, switching stops, the internal soft-start, SS, is discharged, and all GATE pins go low. The switch node enters a high impedance state and the output capacitors Input Voltage Range (VCC and BST) The input voltage range for both VCC and BST is 4.5 V to 13.2 V with reference to GND and PHS, respectively. Although BST is rated at 13.2 V with reference to PHS, it can also tolerate 25 V with respect to GND. http://onsemi.com 6 NCP3102 condition has been removed. The minimum turn-on time of the LS-FET is set to 500 ns. The trip thresholds have a -95 mV, +45 mV process and temperature variation when set to -375 mV. The operation of key nodes is displayed in Figure 14 for both normal operation and during over current conditions. discharge through the load with no ringing on the output voltage. External Soft-Start The NCP3102 features an external soft-start function, which reduces inrush current and overshoot of the output voltage. Soft-Start is achieved by using the internal current source of charges the external integrator capacitor of the transconductance amplifier. Figure 13 is a typical soft-start sequence. This sequence begins once VCC surpasses its UVLO threshold. During soft-start, as the Comp Pin rises through 400 mV, the PWM Logic and gate drives are enabled. When the feedback voltage crosses 800 mV, the EOTA will be given control to switch to its higher regulation mode output current of 120 mA. In the event of an over current during the soft-start, the overcurrent logic will override the soft-start sequence and will shut down the PWM logic and both the high side and low side gates of the switching MOSFETS. If the voltage on the Comp Pin reaches the value of 1.1 V, the device will start switching MOSFETs. The voltage on the Comp Pin is proportional to Duty Cycle in case of the device working in regulated mode.

Switching and Current Limit Timing Overcurrent Protection Setting 0.4 V NCP3102 allows the setting of Overcurrent Threshold ranging from 50 mV to 550 mV, simply by adding a resistor (ROCSET) between BG and GND. During a short period of time following VCC rising over UVLO threshold, an internal 10 mA current (IOCSET) is sourced from BG Pin, determining a voltage drop across ROCSET. This voltage drop will be sampled and internally held by the device as Overcurrent Threshold. The OC setting procedure overall time length is approximately 6 ms. When a ROCSET resistor is connected between BG and GND, the programmed threshold is set with an RSET values range from 5 kW to 55 kW. Vcomp Enable Vfb SS 120 mA 10 mA 10 mA Isource/ Sink -10 mA Startup Normal Figure 13. Soft-Start Implementation IOCth + UVLO Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) is provided to ensure that unexpected behavior does not occur when VCC is too low to support the internal rails and power the converter. For the NCP3102, the UVLO is set to ensure that the IC will startup when VCC reaches 4.0 V and shutdown when VCC drops below 3.6 V. This permits smooth operation from a varying 5.0 V input source. IOCSET * ROCSET R DS(on) (eq. 1) In case ROCSET is not connected, the device switches the OCP threshold to a fixed 375 mV value: an internal safety clamp on BG is triggered as soon as BG voltage reaches 700 mV, enabling the 375 mV fixed threshold and ending OC setting phase. In case of the OCP activation, it is necessary to turn off input supply and start new soft-start sequence. Even though the DISABLE function initiates soft-start sequencing, it is impossible to reset the activated OCP by using this DISABLE function. Current Limit Protection In case of a short circuit or overload, the low side LS-FET will conduct large currents. The controller will shut down the regulator in this situation for protection against overcurrent. The low side RDS(on) sense is implemented by comparing the voltage at the phase node when BG starts going low to an internally generated fixed voltage. If the phase voltage is lower than OC trip voltage, an overcurrent condition occurs and a counter is initiated. When the counter completes, the PWM logic and both HS-FET and LS-FET are turned off. The converter will reinitialize through the soft-start cycle to determine if the short circuit or overload Drivers The NCP3102 drives the internal High and Low side Switching MOSFETS with 1 A gate drivers. The gate drivers also include adaptive nonoverlap circuitry. The nonoverlap circuitry increase efficiency, which minimizes power dissipation, by minimizing the body diode conduction time. A detailed block diagram of the nonoverlap and gate drive circuitry used in the chip is shown in Figure 15. http://onsemi.com 7 NCP3102 where Iinrush is the input current during startup, COUT is the total output capacitance, VOUT is the desired output voltage, and tSS is the soft-start interval. If the inrush current is higher than the steady state input current during maximum load, then the input fuse should be rated accordingly, if one is used.

Block Diagram Careful selection and layout of external components is required, to realize the full benefit of the onboard drivers. The capacitors between VCC and GND and between BST and PHASE must be placed as close as possible to the device. A ground plane should be placed on the closest layer for return currents to GND in order to reduce loop area and inductance in the gate drive circuit. DV 1.1 V Vcomp Vout APPLICATION SECTION Figure 16. Soft-Start Input Capacitor Selection The input capacitor has to sustain the ripple current produced during the on time of the upper MOSFET, so it must have a low ESR to minimize the losses. The RMS value of this ripple is: (1 * D ) The above calculation includes the delay from comp rising to when output voltage becomes valid. To calculate the time of output voltage rising to when it reaches regulation; DV is the difference between the comp voltage reaching regulation and 1.1 V. (eq. 2) Output Capacitor Selection Where D is the duty cycle, IinRMS is the input RMS current, and IOUT is the load current. The equation reaches its maximum value with D = 0.5. Losses in the input capacitors can be calculated with the following equation: P CIN + ESR CIN Iin RMS 2 Selection of the right value of input and output capacitors determines the behavior of the buck converter. In most high power density applications the capacitor size is most important. Ceramic capacitor is necessary to reduce the high frequency ripple voltage at the input of converter. This capacitor should be located near the device as possible. Added electrolytic capacitor improved response of relative slow load change. The required output capacitor will be determined by planned transient deviation requirements. Usually a combination of two types of capacitors is recommended to meet the requirements. First, a ceramic output capacitor is needed for bypassing high frequency noise. Second, an electrolytic output capacitor is needed to achieve good transient response. In fact, during load transient, for the first few microseconds the bulk capacitance supplies current to the load. The controller immediately recognizes the load (eq. 3) Where PCIN is the power loss in the input capacitors and ESRCIN is the effective series resistance of the input capacitance. Due to large di/dt through the input capacitors, electrolytic or ceramics should be used. If a tantalum capacitor has to be used, surge protection is needed. Otherwise, capacitor failure could occur. Calculating Input Startup current To calculate the input startup current, the following equation can be used: I inrush + C OUT V OUT t SS (eq. 5) I SS Where CC is the compensation as well as the soft-start capacitor. CP is the additional capacitor that forms the second pole. ISS is the soft-start current DV is the comp voltage from zero to until it reaches regulation.

During a load step transient the output voltage initially drops due to the current variation inside the capacitor and the ESR. (neglecting the effect of the effective series inductance (ESL)): DV OUT-ESR + DI out ESR COUT A minimum capacitor value is required to sustain the current during the load transient without discharging it. The voltage drop due to the output capacitor discharge is given by the following equation: DV OUT-DISCHARGE + (eq. 6) Recovery Time (ms) 100 226 504 150 182 424 220 170 264 270 149 233 560 112 180 680 100 180 820 96 180 1000 71 180 2x680 60 284 2x820 48 224 C OUT ǒV IN (eq. 7) D * V OUTǓ Inductor Selection Both mechanical and electrical considerations influence the selection of an output inductor. From a mechanical perspective, smaller inductor values generally correspond to smaller physical size. Since the inductor is often one of the largest components in the regulation system, a minimum inductor value is particularly important in space-constrained applications. From an electrical perspective, the maximum current slew rate through the output inductor for a buck regulator is given by: SlewRate LOUT + Table 1. TRANSIENT RESPONSE VERSUS OUTPUT CAPACITANCE (50% to 100% Load Step) Drop (mV) 2 L OUT Where VOUT-DISCHARGE is the voltage deviation of VOUT due to the effects of discharge, LOUT is the output inductor value and VIN is the input voltage. Where VOUT-ESR is the voltage deviation of VOUT due to the effects of ESR and the ESRCOUT is the total effective series resistance of the output capacitors. Table 1. shows values of voltage drop and recovery time of the NCP3102 demo board with the configuration shown in Figure 20. The transient response was measured for the load current step from 5 A to 10 A (50% to 100% load). Input capacitors are 2x47 mF ceramic and 2x270 mF OS-CON, output capacitors are 2x100 mF ceramic and OS-CON as mentioned in Table 1. Typical transient response waveforms are shown in Figure 17. More information about OS-CON capacitors is available at http://www.edc.sanyo.com. COUT (mF) OS-CON DI OUT 2 V IN * V OUT L OUT (eq. 8) This equation implies that larger inductor values limit the regulator's ability to slew current through the output inductor in response to output load transients. Consequently, output capacitors must supply the load current until the inductor current reaches the output load current level. This results in larger values of output capacitance to maintain tight output voltage regulation. In contrast, smaller values of inductance increase the regulator's maximum achievable slew rate and decrease the necessary capacitance, at the expense of higher ripple current. The peak-to-peak ripple current is given by the following equation: Ipk-pk LOUT + V OUT(1 * D) L OUT (eq. 9) 275kHz Where Ipk-pkLOUT is the peak to peak current of the output. From this equation it is clear that the ripple current increases as LOUT decreases, emphasizing the trade-off between dynamic response and ripple current. In order to achieve high efficiency, coils with a low value of Direct Current Resistance (DCR) have to be used. For example: Coilcraft MLC1555-302ML and SER2013-362ML). Feedback and Compensation The output voltage is adjustable from 0.8 V to 5 V as shown in Table 2. The adjustment method requires an external resistor divider with its center tap tied to the FB pin. It is recommended to have a resistance between 1.5 kW and 5 kW. The selection of low value resistors reduces efficiency, alternatively high value resistance of R2 causes decrease in output voltage accuracy due to the bias current in the error amplifier. The output voltage error of this bias current can be estimated by using the following equation: Figure 17.

However, it should be noted that the physical layout of the board, the proximity of other heat sources such as MOSFETs and inductors, and the amount of metal connected to the NCP3102, impact the temperature of the device. The PCB is used also as the heatsink. Double or multi layer PCBs with thermal vias between places with the same electrical potential increase cooling area. A 70 mm thick copper plating is a good solution to eliminate the need for an external heatsink. 17 CSOFT-START 1000 + Rcomp FAULT Ccomp Figure 18. FB circuit Table 2.

Using a good layout can solve many problems associated with these types of power supplies as transient occur. External compensation components (R1, C9) are needed for converter stability. They should be placed close to the NCP3102. The feedback trace is recommended to be kept as far from the inductor and noisy power traces as possible. The resistor divider and feedback acceleration circuit (R2, R3, R6, C13) is recommended to be placed near to input FB (Pin 16, NCP3102). Switching current from one power device to another can generate voltage transients across the impedances of the interconnecting bond wires and circuit traces. These interconnecting impedances should be minimized by using wide, short printed circuit traces. The critical components should be located together as close as possible using ground plane construction or single point grounding. The inductor and output capacitors should be located together as close as possible to the NCP3102. VOUT (V) R3 (kW) Calculated Figure 18 shows a typical Type II operational transconductance error amplifier (OTA). The compensation network consists of the internal error amplifier and the impedance networks ZIN (R3) and external ZFB (Rcomp, Ccomp and Csoft-start). The compensation network has to provide a closed loop transfer function with the highest 0 dB crossing frequency to have fast response (but always lower than fSW/8) and the highest gain in DC conditions to minimize the load regulation. A stable control loop has a gain crossing with -20 dB/decade slope and a phase margin greater than 45°. Include worst-case component variations when determining phase margin.
