NSC LM2651MTCX-3.3 1.5a high efficiency synchronous switching regulator Datasheet

LM2651
1.5A High Efficiency Synchronous Switching Regulator
General Description
Features
The LM2651 switching regulator provides high efficiency
power conversion over a 100:1 load range (1.5A to 15mA).
This feature makes the LM2651 an ideal fit in batterypowered applications that demand long battery life in both
run and standby modes.
Synchronous rectification is used to achieve up to 97%
efficiency. At light loads, the LM2651 enters a low power
hysteretic or “sleep” mode to keep the efficiency high. In
many applications, the efficiency still exceeds 80% at 15mA
load. A shutdown pin is available to disable the LM2651 and
reduce the supply current to less than 10µA.

The LM2651 contains a patented current sensing circuitry for
current mode control. This feature eliminates the external
current sensing resistor required by other current-mode
DC-DC converters.
The LM2651 has a 300 kHz fixed frequency internal oscillator. The high oscillator frequency allows the use of extremely
small, low profile components.
A programmable soft-start feature limits current surges from
the input power supply at start up and provides a simple
means of sequencing multiple power supplies.

Note 1: Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating ratings indicate conditions for which the device is
intended to be functional, but device parameter specifications may not be guaranteed under these conditions. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see
the Electrical Characteristics.
Note 2: The maximum allowable power dissipation is calculated by using PDmax = (TJmax − TA)/θJA , where TJmax is the maximum junction temperature, TA is the
ambient temperature, and θJA is the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the specified package. The 893 mW rating results from using 150˚C, 25˚C, and
140˚C/W for TJmax, TA, and θJA respectively. A θJA of 140˚C/W represents the worst-case condition of no heat sinking of the 16-pin TSSOP package. Heat sinking
allows the safe dissipation of more power. The Absolute Maximum power dissipation must be derated by 7.14mW per ˚C above 25˚C ambient. The LM2651 actively
limits its junction temperature to about 165˚C.
Note 3: The human body model is a 100pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5kΩ resistor into each pin.
Note 4: Typical numbers are at 25˚C and represent the most likely norm.
Note 5: All limits are guaranteed at room temperature (standard typeface) and at temperature extremes (boldface type ). All room temperature limits are 100%
production tested. All limits at temperature extremes are guaranteed via correlation using standard Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods. All limits are used
to calculate Average Outgoing Quality Level (AOQL).

FIGURE 1. LM2651 Block Diagram
Operation
The LM2651 operates in a constant frequency (300 kHz),
current-mode PWM for moderate to heavy loads; and it
automatically switches to hysteretic mode for light loads. In
hysteretic mode, the switching frequency is reduced to keep
the efficiency high.
resistor, saves cost and size, and improves noise immunity
of the sensed current. A feedforward from the input voltage is
added to reduce the variation of the current limit over the
input voltage range.
When the load current decreases below the sleep mode
threshold, the output voltage will rise slightly, this rise is
sensed by the hysteretic mode comparator which makes the
part go into the hysteretic mode with both the high and low
side switches off. The output voltage starts to drop until it hits
the low threshold of the hysteretic comparator, and the part
immediately goes back to the PWM operation. The output
voltage keeps increasing until it reaches the top hysteretic
threshold, then both the high and low side switches turn off
again, and the same cycle repeats.
MAIN OPERATION
When the load current is higher than the sleep mode threshold, the part is always operating in PWM mode. At the
beginning of each switching cycle, the high-side switch is
turned on, the current from the high-side switch is sensed
and compared with the output of the error amplifier (COMP
pin). When the sensed current reaches the COMP pin voltage level, the high-side switch is turned off; after 40 ns
(deadtime), the low-side switch is turned on. At the end of the
switching cycle, the low-side switch is turned off; and the
same cycle repeats.
The current of the top switch is sensed by a patented internal
circuitry. This unique technique gets rid of the external sense
PROTECTIONS
The cycle-by-cycle current limit circuitry turns off the highside MOSFET whenever the current in MOSFET reaches
2A.

INPUT CAPACITOR
BOOST CAPACITOR
A low ESR aluminum, tantalum, or ceramic capacitor is
needed betwen the input pin and power ground. This capacitor prevents large voltage transients from appearing at the
input. The capacitor is selected based on the RMS current
and voltage requirements. The RMS current is given by:
A 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor is recommended for the boost
capacitor. The typical voltage across the boost capacitor is
6.7V.
SOFT-START CAPACITOR
A soft-start capacitor is used to provide the soft-start feature.
When the input voltage is first applied, or when the SD(SS)
pin is allowed to go high, the soft-start capacitor is charged
by a current source (approximately 2 µA). When the SD(SS)
pin voltage reaches 0.6V (shutdown threshold), the internal
regulator circuitry starts to operate. The current charging the
soft-start capacitor increases from 2 µA to approximately
10 µA. With the SD(SS) pin voltage between 0.6V and 1.3V,
the level of the current limit is zero, which means the output
voltage is still zero. When the SD(SS) pin voltage increases
beyond 1.3V, the current limit starts to increase. The switch
duty cycle, which is controlled by the level of the current limit,
starts with narrow pulses and gradually gets wider. At the
same time, the output voltage of the converter increases
towards the nominal value, which brings down the output
voltage of the error amplifier. When the output of the error
amplifier is less than the current limit voltage, it takes over
the control of the duty cycle. The converter enters the normal
current-mode PWM operation. The SD(SS) pin voltage is
eventually charged up to about 2V.
The soft-start time can be estimated as:
TSS = CSS x 0.6V/2 µA + CSS x (2V−0.6V)/10 µA
The RMS current reaches its maximum (IOUT/2) when
VIN equals 2VOUT. For an aluminum or ceramic capacitor,
the voltage rating should be at least 25% higher than the
maximum input voltage. If a tantalum capacitor is used, the
voltage rating required is about twice the maximum input
voltage. The tantalum capacitor should be surge current
tested by the manufacturer to prevent being shorted by the
inrush current. It is also recommended to put a small ceramic
capacitor (0.1 µF) between the input pin and ground pin to
reduce high frequency spikes.
INDUCTOR
The most critical parameters for the inductor are the inductance, peak current and the DC resistance. The inductance
is related to the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current, the
input and the output voltages:
R1 AND R2 (Programming Output Voltage)
Use the following formula to select the appropriate resistor
values:
VOUT = VREF(1 + R1/R2)
where VREF = 1.238V
Select resistors between 10kΩ and 100kΩ. (1% or higher
accuracy metal film resistors for R1 and R2.)
A higher value of ripple current reduces inductance, but
increases the conductance loss, core loss, current stress for
the inductor and switch devices. It also requires a bigger
output capacitor for the same output voltage ripple requirement. A reasonable value is setting the ripple current to be
30% of the DC output current. Since the ripple current increases with the input voltage, the maximum input voltage is
always used to determine the inductance. The DC resistance
of the inductor is a key parameter for the efficiency. Lower
DC resistance is available with a bigger winding area. A good
tradeoff between the efficiency and the core size is letting the
inductor copper loss equal 2% of the output power.
COMPENSATION COMPONENTS
In the control to output transfer function, the first pole Fp1 can
be estimated as 1/(2πROUTCOUT); The ESR zero Fz1 of the
output capacitor is 1/(2πESRCOUT); Also, there is a high
frequency pole Fp2 in the range of 45kHz to 150kHz:
Fp2 = Fs/(πn(1−D))
where D = VOUT/VIN, n = 1+0.348L/(VIN−VOUT) (L is in µHs
and VIN and VOUT in volts).
The total loop gain G is approximately 500/IOUT where IOUT
is in amperes.
A Gm amplifier is used inside the LM2651. The output resistor Ro of the Gm amplifier is about 80kΩ. Cc1 and RC
together with Ro give a lag compensation to roll off the gain:
Fpc1 = 1/(2πCc1(Ro+Rc)), Fzc1 = 1/2πCc1Rc.
In some applications, the ESR zero Fz1 can not be cancelled
by Fp2. Then, Cc2 is needed to introduce Fpc2 to cancel the
ESR zero, Fp2 = 1/(2πCc2Ro\Rc).
The rule of thumb is to have more than 45˚ phase margin at
the crossover frequency (G=1).
If COUT is higher than 68µF, Cc1 = 2.2nF, and Rc = 15KΩ are
good choices for most applications. If the ESR zero is too
low to be cancelled by Fp2, add Cc2.
If the transient response to a step load is important, choose
RC to be higher than 10kΩ.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR
The selection of COUT is driven by the maximum allowable
output voltage ripple. The output ripple in the constant frequency, PWM mode is approximated by:
The ESR term usually plays the dominant role in determining
the voltage ripple. A low ESR aluminum electrolytic or tantalum capacitor (such as Nichicon PL series, Sanyo OS-CON,
Sprague 593D, 594D, AVX TPS, and CDE polymer aluminum) is recommended. An electrolytic capacitor is not recommended for temperatures below −25˚C since its ESR
rises dramatically at cold temperature. A tantalum capacitor
has a much better ESR specification at cold temperature and
is preferred for low temperature applications.
The output voltage ripple in constant frequency mode has to
be less than the sleep mode voltage hysteresis to avoid
entering the sleep mode at full load:

Design Procedure
versed through the synchronous FET. For applications which
need to be protected from a negative voltage, a clamping
diode D2 is recommended. When used, D2 should be connected cathode to VOUT and anode to ground. A diode rated
for a minimum of 2A is recommended.
(Continued)
EXTERNAL SCHOTTKY DIODE
A Schottky diode D1 is recommended to prevent the intrinsic
body diode of the low-side MOSFET from conducting during
the deadtime in PWM operation and hysteretic mode when
both MOSFETs are off. If the body diode turns on, there is
extra power dissipation in the body diode because of the
reverse-recovery current and higher forward voltage; the
high-side MOSFET also has more switching loss since the
negative diode reverse-recovery current appears as the
high-side MOSFET turn-on current in addition to the load
current. These losses degrade the efficiency by 1-2%. The
improved efficiency and noise immunity with the Schottky
diode become more obvious with increasing input voltage
and load current.
The breakdown voltage rating of D1 is preferred to be 25%
higher than the maximum input voltage. Since D1 is only on
for a short period of time, the average current rating for D1
only requires being higher than 30% of the maximum output
current. It is important to place D1 very close to the drain and
source of the low-side MOSFET, extra parasitic inductance
in the parallel loop will slow the turn-on of D1 and direct the
current through the body diode of the low-side MOSFET.
When an undervoltage situation occurs, the output voltage
can be pulled below ground as the inductor current is re-
PCB Layout Considerations
Layout is critical to reduce noises and ensure specified
performance. The important guidelines are listed as follows:
1.
Minimize the parasitic inductance in the loop of input
capacitors and the internal MOSFETs by connecting the
input capacitors to VIN and PGND pins with short and
wide traces. This is important because the rapidly
switching current, together with wiring inductance can
generate large voltage spikes that may result in noise
problems.
2. Minimize the trace from the center of the output resistor
divider to the FB pin and keep it away from noise
sources to avoid noise pick up. For applications requiring tight regulation at the output, a dedicated sense
trace (separated from the power trace) is recommended
to connect the top of the resistor divider to the output.
3. If the Schottky diode D1 is used, minimize the traces
connecting D1 to SW and PGND pins.
