The device integrates MOSFET switches, PWM controller, Gate-drive, compensation, and inductor into a tiny 3mm x 3mm x 1.1mm micro-QFN package. Advanced package design, along with the high level of integration, provides very low output ripple and noise. The EP5358xUI uses voltage mode control for high noise immunity and load matching to advanced ≤90nm loads. A 3-pin VID allows the user to choose from one of 8 output voltage settings. The EP5358xUI comes with two VID output voltage ranges. The EP5358HUI provides VOUT settings from 1.8V to 3.3V, the EP5358LUI provides VID settings from 0.8V to 1.5V, and also has an external resistor divider option to program output setting over the 0.6V to VIN-0.25V range. The EP5358xUI provides the industry’s highest power density of any 500mA DCDC converter solution. The EP5358xUI utilizes a proprietary low loss integrated inductor. The integration of the inductor greatly simplifies the power supply design process. The inherent shielding and compact construction of the integrated inductor reduces the conducted and radiated noise that can couple into the traces of the printed circuit board. Further, the package layout is optimized to reduce the electrical path length for the high di/dT input AC ripple currents that are a major source of radiated emissions from DC-DC converters. The integrated inductor provides the optimal solution to the complexity, output ripple, and noise that plague low power DCDC converter design. The key enabler of this revolutionary integration is Enpirion’s proprietary power MOSFET technology. The advanced MOSFET switches are implemented in deep-submicron CMOS to supply very low switching loss at high switching frequencies and to allow a high level of integration. The semiconductor process allows seem-less integration of all switching, control, and compensation circuitry. The proprietary magnetics design provides high-density/high-value magnetics in a very small footprint. Enpirion magnetics are carefully matched to the control and compensation circuitry yielding an optimal solution with assured performance over the entire operating range. Protection features include under-voltage lockout (UVLO), over-current protection (OCP), short circuit protection, and thermal overload protection. Control Matched to sub 90nm Loads The EP5358xUI utilizes an integrated type III compensation network. Voltage mode control is inherently impedance matched to the sub 90nm process technology that is used in today’s advanced ICs. Voltage mode control also provides a high degree of noise immunity at light load currents so that low ripple and high accuracy are maintained over the entire load range. The very high switching frequency allows for a very wide control loop bandwidth and hence excellent transient performance. Soft Start Internal soft start circuits limit in-rush current when the device starts up from a power down condition or when the “ENABLE” pin is asserted “high”. Digital control circuitry limits the VOUT ramp rate to levels that are safe for the Power MOSFETS and the integrated inductor. The EP5358HUI has a soft-start slew rate that is twice that of the EP5358LUI. Excess bulk capacitance on the output of the device can cause an over-current condition at startup. The maximum total capacitance on the output, including the output filter capacitor and bulk and decoupling capacitance, at the load, is given as: EP5358LUI: ©Enpirion 2009 all rights reserved, E&OE 03541 9 5/29/2009 www.enpirion.com Rev:A EP5358LUI/EP5358HUI COUT_TOTAL_MAX = COUT_Filter + COUT_BULK = 200uF EP5358HUI: COUT_TOTAL_MAX = COUT_Filter + COUT_BULK = 100uF The nominal value for COUT is 10uF. See the applications section for more details. Over Current/Short Circuit Protection The current limit function is achieved by sensing the current flowing through a sense PMOSFET which is compared to a reference current. When this level is exceeded the PFET is turned off and the N-FET is turned on, pulling VOUT low. This condition is maintained for approximately 0.5mS and then a normal soft start is initiated. If the over current condition still persists, this cycle will repeat. Under Voltage Lockout During initial power up an under voltage lockout circuit will hold-off the switching circuitry until the input voltage reaches a sufficient level to insure proper operation. If the voltage drops below the UVLO threshold the lockout circuitry will again disable the switching. Hysteresis is included to prevent chattering between states. ©Enpirion 2009 all rights reserved, E&OE 03541 Enable The ENABLE pin provides a means to shut down the converter or enable normal operation. A logic low will disable the converter and cause it to shut down. A logic high will enable the converter into normal operation. NOTE: The ENABLE pin must not be left floating. Thermal Shutdown When excessive power is dissipated in the chip, the junction temperature rises. Once the junction temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown temperature the thermal shutdown circuit turns off the converter output voltage thus allowing the device to cool. When the junction temperature decreases by 15C°, the device will go through the normal startup process. 10 5/29/2009 www.enpirion.com Rev:A EP5358LUI/EP5358HUI Application Information VIN PVIN VOUT AVIN VSENSE ENABLE 2.2μF 0603 VOUT 10μF 0603 VS0 PGND AGND Figure 6: Application Circuit, EP5358HUI,.

Output Voltage Programming The EP5358xUI utilizes a 3-pin VID to program the output voltage value. The VID is available in two sets of output VID programming ranges. The VID pins should be connected either to AVIN or to AGND to avoid noise coupling into the device. The “Low” range is optimized for low voltage applications. It comes with preset VID settings ranging from 0.80V and 1.5V. This VID set also has an external divider option. To specify this VID range, order part number EP5358LUI. The “High” VID set provides output voltage settings ranging from 1.8V to 3.3V. This version does not have an external divider option. To specify this VID range, order part number EP5358HUI.

A logic “1” indicates a connection to AVIN or to a “high” logic voltage level. A logic “0” indicates a connection to AGND or to a “low” logic voltage level. These pins can be either hardwired to AVIN or AGND or alternatively can be driven by standard logic levels. Logic levels are defined in the electrical characteristics table. Any level between the logic high and logic low is indeterminate. EP5358LUI External Voltage Divider The external divider option is chosen by connecting VID pins VS2-VS0 to VIN or a logic “1” or “high”. The EP5358LUI uses a separate feedback pin, VFB, when using the external divider. VSENSE must be connected to VOUT as indicated in Figure 8. The output voltage is selected by the following formula: 11 5/29/2009 www.enpirion.com Rev:A EP5358LUI/EP5358HUI VOUT = 0.6V (1 + PVIN VIN VS0 VS1 EP5358L ENABLE VS2 ) Table 2: EP5358HUI VID Voltage Select Settings VSense AVIN 2.2uF 0603 Ra Rb VS2 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 VOUT VOUT Ra 10μF 0603 VFB Rb PGND AGND VS1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 VS0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 VOUT 3.3 3.0 2.9 2.6 2.5 2.2 2.1 1.8 Input Filter Capacitor Figure 8: EP5358LUI using external divider Ra must be chosen as 237KΩ to maintain loop gain.

NOTE: Dynamic Voltage Scaling is not allowed between internal preset voltages and external divider. EP5358HUI High VID Range Programming The EP5358HUI VOUT settings are optimized for higher nominal voltages such as those required to power IO, RF, or IC memory. The preset voltages range from 1.8V to 3.3V. There are eight (8) preset output voltage settings. The EP5358HUI does not have an external divider option. As with the EP5358LUI, the VID pin settings can be changed while the device is enabled. Table 2 shows the VS0-VS2 pin logic states for the EP5358HUI and the associated output voltage levels. A logic “1” indicates a connection to AVIN or to a “high” logic voltage level. A logic “0” indicates a connection to AGND or to a “low” logic voltage level. These pins can be either hardwired to AVIN or AGND or alternatively can be driven by standard logic levels. Logic levels are defined in the electrical characteristics table. Any level between the logic high and logic low is indeterminate. These pins must not be left floating. ©Enpirion 2009 all rights reserved, E&OE 03541 The input filter capacitor requirement is a 2.2µF 0603 low ESR MLCC capacitor. The input capacitor must use a X5R or X7R or equivalent dielectric formulation. Y5V or equivalent dielectric formulations lose capacitance with frequency, bias, and with temperature, and are not suitable for switchmode DC-DC converter input filter applications. Output Filter Capacitor The output filter capacitor requirement is a minimum of 10µF 0603 MLCC for VIN<4.3V and 10uF 0805 for VIN>4.3V. Ripple performance can be improved by using 2x10µF 0603 MLCC capacitors (for any allowed VIN). The maximum output filter capacitance next to the output pins of the device is 60µF low ESR MLCC capacitance. VOUT has to be sensed at the last output filter capacitor next to the EP5358xUI. Additional bulk capacitance for decoupling and bypass can be placed at the load as long as there is sufficient separation between the VOUT Sense point and the bulk capacitance. Excess total capacitance on the output (Output Filter + Bulk) can cause an over-current condition at startup. Refer to the section on Soft-Start for the maximum total capacitance on the output. The output capacitor must use a X5R or X7R or equivalent dielectric formulation. Y5V or equivalent dielectric formulations lose capacitance with frequency, bias, and temperature and are not suitable for switchmode DC-DC converter output filter applications. 12 5/29/2009 www.enpirion.com Rev:A EP5358LUI/EP5358HUI Recommended PCB Footprint Figure 9: EP5358 Package PCB Footprint ©Enpirion 2009 all rights reserved, E&OE 03541 13 5/29/2009 www.enpirion.com Rev:A EP5358LUI/EP5358HUI Package and Mechanical Figure 10: EN5358xQI Package Dimensions Contact Information Enpirion, Inc.
