Only an input capacitor, an output capacitor, a small VCON filter capacitor, and two resistors are required for basic operation. The nano module comes in 8-pin POS footprint package with an integrated inductor. The LMZ10501 operates in fixed 2.0MHz PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) mode, and is designed to deliver power at maximum efficiency. The output voltage is typically set by using a resistive divider between the built-in reference voltage VREF and the control pin VCON. The VCON pin is the positive input to the error amplifier. The output voltage of the LMZ10501 can also be dynamically adjusted between 0.6V and 3.6V by driving the VCON pin externally. Internal current limit based softstart function, current overload protection, and thermal shutdown are also provided. CIRCUIT OPERATION The LMZ10501 is a synchronous Buck power module using a PFET for the high side switch and an NFET for the synchronous rectifier switch. The output voltage is regulated by modulating the PFET switch on-time. The circuit generates a duty-cycle modulated rectangular signal. The rectangular signal is averaged using a low pass filter formed by the integrated inductor and an output capacitor. The output voltage is equal to the average of the dutycycle modulated rectangular signal. In PWM mode, the switching frequency is constant. The energy per cycle to the load is controlled by modulating the PFET on-time, which controls the peak inductor current. In current mode control architecture, the inductor current is compared with the slope compensated output of the error amplifier. At the rising edge of the clock, the PFET is turned ON, ramping up the inductor current with a slope of (VIN VOUT)/L. The PFET is ON until the current signal equals the error signal. Then the PFET is turned OFF and NFET is turned ON, ramping down the inductor current with a slope of VOUT /L. At the next rising edge of the clock, the cycle repeats. An increase of load pulls the output voltage down, resulting in an increase of the error signal. As the error signal goes up, the peak inductor current is increased, elevating the average inductor current and responding to the heavier load. To ensure stability, a slope compensation ramp is subtracted from the error signal and internal loop compensation is provided. INPUT UNDER VOLTAGE DETECTION The LMZ10501 implements an under voltage lock out (UVLO) circuit to ensure proper operation during startup, shutdown and input supply brownout conditions. The circuit monitors the voltage at the VIN pin to ensure that sufficient voltage is present to bias the regulator. If the under voltage threshold is not met, all functions of the controller are disabled and the controller remains in a low power standby state. SHUTDOWN MODE To shutdown the LMZ10501, pull the EN pin low (<0.5V). In the shutdown mode all internal circuits are turned OFF. EN PIN OPERATION The EN pin is internally pulled up to VIN through a 790kΩ (typ.) resistor. This allows the nano module to be enabled by default when the EN pin is left floating. In such cases VIN will set EN high when VIN reaches 1.2V. As the input voltage continues to rise, operation will start once VIN exceeds the under-voltage lockout (UVLO) threshold. To set EN high externally, pull it up to 1.2V or higher. Note that the voltage on EN must remain at less than VIN+ 0.2V due to absolute maximum ratings of the device. INTERNAL SYNCHRONOUS RECTIFICATION The LMZ10501 uses an internal NFET as a synchronous rectifier to minimize the switch voltage drop and increase efficiency. The NFET is designed to conduct through its intrinsic body diode during the built-in dead time between the PFET on-time and the NFET on-time. This eliminates the need for an external diode. The dead time between the PFET and NFET connection prevents shoot through current from VIN to PGND during the switching transitions. 12 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2011–2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMZ10501 LMZ10501 www.ti.com SNVS677D – MAY 2011 – REVISED MARCH 2013 CURRENT LIMIT The LMZ10501 current limit feature protects the module during an overload condition. The circuit employs positive peak current limit in the PFET and negative peak current limit in the NFET switch. The positive peak current through the PFET is limited to 1.7A (typ.). When the current reaches this limit threshold the PFET switch is immediately turned off until the next switching cycle. This behavior continues on a cycle-by-cycle basis until the overload condition is removed from the output. The typical negative peak current limit through the NFET switch is -0.6A (typ.). The ripple of the inductor current depends on the input and output voltages. This means that the DC level of the output current when the peak current limiting occurs will also vary over the line voltage and the output voltage level. Refer to the DC Output Current Limit plots in the Typical Performance Characteristics section for more information. STARTUP BEHAVIOR AND SOFTSTART The LMZ10501 features a current limit based soft start circuit in order to prevent large in-rush current and output overshoot as VOUT is ramping up. This is achieved by gradually increasing the PFET current limit threshold to the final operating value as the output voltage ramps during startup. The maximum allowed current in the inductor is stepped up in a staircase profile for a fixed number of switching periods in each step. Additionally, the switching frequency in the first step is set at 450kHz and is then increased for each of the following steps until it reaches 2MHz at the final step of current limiting. This current limiting behavior is illustrated in Figure 35 and allows for a smooth VOUT ramp up. VCON 500 mV/Div 300 mA/Div IL 300 mA/Div IOUT 500 mV/Div VOUT 10 µs/Div Figure 35. Startup behavior of current limit based softstart. The soft start rate is also limited by the VCON ramp up rate. The VCON pin is discharged internally through a pull down device before startup occurs. This is done to deplete any residual charge on the VCON filter capacitor and allow the VCON voltage to ramp up from 0V when the part is started. The events that cause VCON discharge are thermal shutdown, UVLO, EN low, or output short circuit detection. The minimum recommended capacitance on VCON is 220pF and the maximum is 1nF. The duration of startup current limiting sequence takes approximately 75µs. After the sequence is completed, the feedback voltage is monitored for output short circuit events. OUTPUT SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION In addition to cycle by cycle current limit, the LMZ10501 features a second level of short circuit protection. If the load pulls the output voltage down and the feedback voltage falls to 0.375V, the output short circuit protection will engage. In this mode the internal PFET switch is turned OFF after the current limit comparator trips and the beginning of the next cycle is inhibited for approximately 230µs. This forces the inductor current to ramp down and limits excessive current draw from the input supply when the output of the regulator is shorted. The synchronous rectifier is always OFF in this mode. After 230µs of non-switching a new startup sequence is initiated. During this new startup sequence the current limit is gradually stepped up to the nominal value as illustrated in the STARTUP BEHAVIOR AND SOFTSTART section. After the startup sequence is completed again, the feedback voltage is monitored for output short circuit. If the short circuit is still persistent after the new startup sequence, switching will be stopped again and there will be another 230µs off period. A persistent output short condition results in a hiccup behavior where the LMZ10501 goes through the normal startup sequence, then detects the output short at the end of startup, terminates switching for 230µs, and repeats this cycle until the output short is released. This behavior is illustrated in Figure 36.

Hiccup behavior with persistent output short circuit. Since the output current is limited during normal startup by the softstart function, the current charging the output capacitor is also limited. This results in a smooth VOUT ramp up to nominal voltage. However, using excessively large output capacitance or VCON capacitance under normal conditions can prevent the output voltage from reaching 0.375V at the end of the startup sequence. In such cases the module will maintain the described above hiccup mode and the output voltage will not ramp up to final value. To cause this condition, one would have to use unnecessarily large output capacitance for 1A load applications. See the INPUT AND OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION section for guidance on maximum capacitances for different output voltage settings. HIGH DUTY CYCLE OPERATION The LMZ10501 features a transition mode designed to extend the output regulation range to the minimum possible input voltage. As the input voltage decreases closer and closer to VOUT, the off-time of the PFET gets smaller and smaller and the duty cycle eventually needs to reach 100% to support the output voltage. The input voltage at which the duty cycle reaches 100% is the edge of regulation. When the LMZ10501 input voltage is lowered, such that the off-time of the PFET reduces to less than 35ns, the LMZ10501 doubles the switching period to extend the off-time for that VIN and maintain regulation. If VIN is lowered even more, the off-time of the PFET will reach the 35ns mark again. The LMZ10501 will then reduce the frequency again, achieving less than 100% duty cycle operation and maintaining regulation. As VIN is lowered even more, the LMZ10501 will continue to scale down the frequency, aiming to maintain at least 35ns off time. Eventually, as the input voltage decreases further, 100% duty cycle is reached. This behavior of extending the VIN regulation range is illustrated in the following plot. 1V/Div INPUT VOLTAGE 1V/Div SWITCH NODE 20 MHz BW 5 µs/Div Figure 37.

Thermal protection is implemented by an internal thermal shutdown circuit which activates at 150°C (typ). When this temperature is reached, the device enters a low power standby state. In this state switching remains off causing the output voltage to fall. Also, the VCON capacitor is discharged to SGND. When the junction temperature falls back below 130 °C (typ) normal startup occurs and VOUT rises smoothly from 0V. Applications requiring maximum output current may require derating at elevated ambient temperature. See the Typical Performance Characteristics section for thermal derating plots for various output voltages. Application Information VREF EN RT VCON VIN CIN 10 PF CVC RB FB PGND SGND FB VOUT COUT 10 PF Figure 38. Typical Application Circuit SETTING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE The LMZ10501 provides a fixed 2.35V VREF voltage output. As shown in Figure 38 above, a resistive divider formed by RT and RB sets the VCON pin voltage level. The VOUT voltage tracks VCON and is governed by the following relationship: VOUT = GAIN x VCON where • GAIN is 2.5V/V from VCON to VFB. (1) This equation is valid for output voltages between 0.6V and 3.6V and corresponds to VCON voltage between 0.24V and 1.44V, respectively. RT and RB Selection for Fixed VOUT The parameters affecting the output voltage setting are the RT, RB, and the product of the VREF voltage x GAIN. The VREF voltage is typically 2.35V. Since VCON is derived from VREF via RT and RB, VCON = VREF x RB/ (RB + RT) (2) After substitution, VOUT = VREF x GAIN x RB/ (RB + RT) RT = ( GAIN x VREF / VOUT – 1 ) x RB (3) (4) The ideal product of GAIN x VREF = 5.875V. Choose RT to be between 80kΩ and 300kΩ. Then, RB can be calculated using Equation 5 below. RB = ( VOUT / (5.875V – VOUT) ) x RT (5) Note that the resistance of RT should be ≥ 80kΩ. This ensures that the VREF output current loading is not exceeded and the reference voltage is maintained. The current loading on VREF should not be greater than 30 µA.

Equation 1 shows that, by design, the output voltage is a function of the VCON voltage and the gain from VCON to VFB. The voltage at VCON is derived from VREF. Therefore, as shown in Equation 3, the accuracy of the output voltage is a function of the VREF x GAIN product as well as the tolerance of the RT and RB resistors. The typical VREF x GAIN product by design is 5.875V. Each nano module's VREF voltage is trimmed so that this product is as close to the ideal 5.875V value as possible, achieving high VOUT accuracy. See the Electrical Specifications section for the VREF x GAIN product tolerance limits. DYNAMIC OUTPUT VOLTAGE SCALING The VCON pin on the LMZ10501 can be driven externally by a DAC to scale the output voltage dynamically. The output voltage VOUT = 2.5V/V x VCON. When driving VCON with a source different than VREF place a 1.5kΩ resistor in series with the VCON pin. Current limiting the external VCON helps to protect this pin and allows the VCON capacitor to be fully discharged to 0V after fault conditions. INTEGRATED INDUCTOR The LMZ10501 uses a Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) type 2.6 µH inductor with over 1.2A DC current rating and soft saturation profile for up to 2A. This inductor allows for the 1.425mm maximum package height providing an easy to use, compact solution with reduced EMI. INPUT AND OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION The LMZ10501 is designed for use with low ESR multi-layer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) for its input and output filters. Using a 10 µF 0603 or 0805 with 6.3V or 10V rating ceramic input capacitor typically provides sufficient VIN bypass. Use of multiple 4.7 µF or 2.2µF capacitors can also be considered. Ceramic capacitors with X5R and X7R temperature characteristics are recommended for both input and output filters. These provide an optimal balance between small size, cost, reliability, and performance for space sensitive applications. The DC voltage bias characteristics of the capacitors must be considered when selecting the DC voltage rating and case size of these components. The effective capacitance of an MLCC is typically reduced by the DC voltage bias applied across its terminals. For example, a typical 0805 case size X5R 6.3V 10 µF ceramic capacitor may only have 4.8 µF left in it when a 5.0V DC bias is applied. Similarly, a typical 0603 case size X5R 6.3V 10 µF ceramic capacitor may only have 2.4 µF at the same 5.0V DC. Smaller case size capacitors may have even larger percentage drop in value with DC bias. The optimum output capacitance value is application dependent. Too small output capacitance can lead to instability due to lower loop phase margin. On the other hand, if the output capacitor is too large, it may prevent the output voltage from reaching the 0.375V required voltage level at the end of the startup sequence. In such cases, the output short circuit protection can be engaged and the nano module will enter a hiccup mode as described in the OUTPUT SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION section. Table 1 sets the minimum output capacitance for stability and maximum output capacitance for proper startup for various output voltage settings. Note that the maximum COUT value in Table 1 assumes that the filter capacitance on VCON is the maximum recommended value of 1nF and the RT resistor value is less than 300kΩ. Lower VCON capacitance can extend the maximum COUT range. There is no great performance benefit in using excessive COUT values. Table 1.

In addition to the main output capacitor, small 0.1µF – 0.01µF parallel capacitors can be used to reduce high frequency noise. PACKAGE CONSIDERATIONS The nano module package includes an LTCC inductor on the bottom and a micro SMD die mounted on top. The die has exposed edges and can be sensitive to ambient light. For applications with direct high intensity ambient red, infrared, LED, or natural light it is recommended to have the device shielded from the light source to avoid abnormal behavior. Since the die is exposed on top of the package, care should be taken when picking and placing the module on the board. Use the following recommendations when utilizing machine placement: • Use 1.06mm (42mil) or smaller nozzle size so that the nozzle head does not touch the outer area of the exposed die. • Use a soft tip pick and place head. • Add 0.05mm to the component thickness so that the device will be released 0.05mm (2mil) into the solder paste without putting pressure or splashing the solder paste. • Slow the pick arm when picking the part from the tape and reel carrier and when depositing the IC on the board. • If the machine releases the component by force, use minimum force or no more than 3 Newtons. • For PCBs with surface mount components on both sides, it is suggested to put the LMZ10501 on the top side. In case the application requires bottom side placement, a reflow fixture may be required to protect the module during the second reflow. For manual placement: • Use a vacuum pick up hand tool with soft tip head. • If vacuum pick up tool is not available, use non-metal tweezers and hold the part by the inductor body side terminals rather than the micro SMD die on top. • Use minimal force when picking and placing the module on the board. • In case a heat gun is required for rework, make sure that the heat source is pointing at the interface between the inductor and the PCB. Do not apply heat gun directly on top of the component since it may affect the solder joint between the micro SMD and the inductor. Using hot air station provides better temperature control and better controlled air flow than a heat gun. • Go to the video section at www.ti.com/product/lmz10501 for a quick video on how to solder rework the LMZ10501.

Example Top Layer Board Layout The board layout of any DC-DC switching converter is critical for the optimal performance of the design. Bad PCB layout design can disrupt the operation of an otherwise good schematic design. Even if the regulator still converts the voltage properly, the board layout can mean the difference between passing or failing EMI regulations. In a Buck converter, the most critical board layout path is between the input capacitor ground terminal and the synchronous rectifier ground. The loop formed by the input capacitor and the power FETs is a path for the high di/dt switching current during each switching period. This loop should always be kept as short as possible when laying out a board for any Buck converter. The LMZ10501 integrates the inductor and simplifies the DC-DC converter board layout. Refer to the example layout in Figure 39. There are a few basic requirements to achieve a good LMZ10501 layout. 1. Place the input capacitor CIN as close as possible to the VIN and PGND terminals. VIN (pin 7) and PGND (pin 6) on the LMZ10501 are next to each other which makes the input capacitor placement simple. 2. Place the VCON filter capacitor CVC and the RB RT resistive divider as close as possible to the VCON and SGND terminals.The CVC capacitor (not RB) should be the component closer to the VCON pin, as shown in Figure 39. This allows for better bypass of the control voltage set at VCON. 3. Run the feedback trace (from VOUT to FB) away from noise sources. 4. Connect SGND to a quiet GND plane. 5. Provide enough PCB area for proper heatsinking. Refer to the Electrical Characteristics table for example θJA values for different board areas. Also, refer to AN-2020 for additional thermal design hints. Refer to the evaluation board application note AN-2166 for a complete board layout example. 18 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2011–2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMZ10501 LMZ10501 www.ti.com SNVS677D – MAY 2011 – REVISED MARCH 2013 REVISION HISTORY Changes from Revision C (March 2013) to Revision D Page Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2011–2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMZ10501 19 PACKAGE OPTION ADDENDUM www.ti.com 24-Nov-2013 PACKAGING INFORMATION Orderable Device Status (1) Package Type Package Pins Package Drawing Qty Eco Plan Lead/Ball Finish MSL Peak Temp (2) (6) (3) Op Temp (°C) Device Marking (4/5) LMZ10501SH/NOPB LIFEBUY POS NQB 8 1000 TBD Call TI Call TI -40 to 85 SP LMZ10501SHE/NOPB LIFEBUY POS NQB 8 250 TBD Call TI Call TI -40 to 85 SP LMZ10501SHX/NOPB LIFEBUY POS NQB 8 3000 TBD Call TI Call TI -40 to 85 SP (1) The marketing status values are defined as follows: ACTIVE: Product device recommended for new designs.
