Detailed Description
Protection features include under-voltage lockout (UVLO), over-current protection (OCP),
short circuit protection, and thermal overload
protection.
Functional Overview
The EN5312QI is a complete DCDC converter
solution requiring only two low cost MLCC
capacitors.
MOSFET switches, PWM
controller, Gate-drive, compensation, and
inductor are integrated into the tiny 5mm x
4mm x 1.1mm package to provide the smallest
footprint possible while maintaining high
efficiency, low ripple, and high performance.
The converter uses voltage mode control to
provide the simplest implementation and high
noise immunity. The device operates at a high
switching frequency. The high switching
frequency allows for a wide control loop
bandwidth
providing
excellent
transient
performance. The high switching frequency
enables the use of very small components
making possible this unprecedented level of
integration.
Integrated Inductor
Altera has introduced the world’s first product
family featuring integrated inductors. The use
of an internal inductor localizes the noises
associated with the output loop currents. The
inherent shielding and compact construction of
the integrated inductor reduces the radiated
noise that couples into the traces of the circuit
board.
Further, the package layout is
optimized to reduce the electrical path length
for the AC ripple currents that are a major
source of radiated emissions from DCDC
converters.
The
integrated
inductor
significantly reduces parasitic effects that can
harm loop stability, and makes layout very
simple.
Altera’s Enpirion proprietary power MOSFET
technology provides very low switching loss at
frequencies of 4 MHz and higher, allowing for
the use of very small internal components, and
very wide control loop bandwidth. Unique
magnetic design allows for integration of the
inductor into the very low profile 1.1mm
package. Integration of the inductor virtually
eliminates the design/layout issues normally
associated
with
switch-mode
DCDC
converters. All of this enables much easier
and faster integration into various applications
to meet demanding EMI requirements.
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 V OUT ramp rate to levels that are safe for
the Power MOSFETS and the integrated
inductor.
The EN5312QI operates in a constant slew
rate when the output voltage is programmed
with an internal VID code. The EN5312QI,
when in external resistor divider mode, has a
constant start up time. Please refer to the
Electrical Characteristics table for soft-start
slew rates and soft-start time
Output voltage is chosen from seven preset
values via a three pin VID voltage select
scheme. An external divider option enables
the selection of any voltage in the 0.6V to V IN 0.6V range. This reduces the number of
components that must be qualified and
reduces inventory burden. The VID pins can
be toggled on the fly to implement glitch free
dynamic voltage scaling.
Excess bulk capacitance on the output of the
device can cause an over-current condition at
startup. Assuming no-load at startup, the
maximum total capacitance on the output,
including the output filter capacitor, bulk and
decoupling capacitance, at the load, is given
as:

switching. Hysteresis is included to prevent
chattering between states.
C OUT_TOTAL_MAX = C OUT_Filter + C OUT_BULK =
700uF
In external divider mode:
Enable
C OUT_TOTAL_MAX = 1.22x10-3/V OUT Farads
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. In
shutdown mode, the device quiescent current
will be less than 1 uA.
The nominal value for C OUT 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 V OUT low. This condition is maintained
for a period of 1mS and then a normal soft start
is initiated. If the over current condition still
persists, this cycle will repeat in a “hick-up”
mode.
NOTE: This 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.
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
Application Information
Table 1 shows the various VS0-VS2 pin logic
states and the associated output voltage
levels. A logic “1” indicates a connection to V IN
or to a “high” logic voltage level. A logic “0”
indicates a connection to ground or to a “low”
logic voltage level. These pins can be either
hardwired to V IN or GND or alternatively can be
driven by standard logic levels. Logic low is
defined as V LOW ≤ 0.4V. Logic high is defined
as V HIGH ≥ 1.4V. Any level between these two
values is indeterminate. These pins must not
be left floating.
The External Voltage Divider pin, V FB, may be
left floating for all VID settings other than the
VS0=VS1=VS2= ”1”.
Output Voltage Select
To provide the highest degree of flexibility in
choosing output voltage, the EN5312QI uses a
3 pin VID, or Voltage ID, output voltage select
arrangement. This allows the designer to
choose one of seven preset voltages, or to use
an external voltage divider. Internally, the
output of the VID multiplexer sets the value for
the voltage reference DAC, which in turn is
connected to the non-inverting input of the
error amplifier. This allows the use of a single
feedback divider with constant loop gain and
optimum compensation, independent of the
output voltage selected.

input and output filter applications.
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 capacitance requirement is a
minimum of 10uF.
The control loop is
designed to be stable with up to 60uF of total
output capacitance next to the output pins of
the device without requiring modification to the
compensation network. V OUT has to be sensed
at the last output filter capacitor next to the
device. Capacitance above the 10uF minimum
should be added if the transient performance is
not sufficient using the 10uF.
Altera

be used.

capacitance with frequency, bias, and
temperature and are not suitable for switchmode DC-DC converter input and output filter
applications.
Power-Up Sequencing
During power-up, ENABLE should not be
asserted before VIN. Tying these pins together
meets these requirements.
Additional bulk capacitance for decoupling and
bypass can be placed at the load as long as
there is sufficient separation between the V OUT
Sense point and the bulk capacitance. The
separation provides an inductance that isolates
the control loop from the bulk capacitance.

LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS*
*Optimized PCB Layout file downloadable from the Altera website to assure first pass design success.
Recommendation 1: Input and output filter capacitors should be placed on the same side of the
PCB, and as close to the EN5312QI package as possible. They should be connected to the device
with very short and wide traces. Do not use thermal reliefs or spokes when connecting the capacitor
pads to the respective nodes. The +V and GND traces between the capacitors and the EN5312QI
should be as close to each other as possible so that the gap between the two nodes is minimized,
even under the capacitors.
Recommendation 2: DO NOT connect GND pins 3 and 4 together. Pin 3 should be used for the
Input capacitor local ground and pin 4 should be used for the output capacitor ground. The ground
pad for the input and output filter capacitors should be isolated ground islands and should be
connected to system ground as indicated in recommendation 3 and recommendation 5.
Recommendation 3: Multiple small vias (0.25mm after copper plating) should be used to connect
ground terminals of the Input capacitor and the output capacitor to the system ground plane. This
provides a low inductance path for the high-frequency AC currents; thereby reducing ripple and
suppressing EMI (see Fig. 6, Fig. 7, and Fig. 8).
Recommendation 4: The large thermal pad underneath the component must be connected to the
system ground plane through as many thermal vias as possible. The vias should use 0.33mm drill
size with minimum one ounce copper plating (0.035mm plating thickness). This provides the path for
heat dissipation from the converter.
Recommendation 5: The system ground plane referred to in recommendations 3 and 4 should be
the first layer immediately below the surface layer (PCB layer 2). This ground plane should be
continuous and un-interrupted below the converter and the input and output capacitors that carry
large AC currents. If it is not possible to make PCB layer 2 a continuous ground plane, an
uninterrupted ground “island” should be created on PCB layer 2 immediately underneath the
EN5312QI and its input and output capacitors. The vias that connect the input and output capacitor
grounds, and the thermal pad to the ground island, should continue through to the PCB GND layer as
well.
Recommendation 6: As with any switch-mode DC/DC converter, do not run sensitive signal or
control lines underneath the converter package.
Recommendation 7: The VOUT sense point should be just after the last output filter capacitor next
to the device. Keep the sense trace short in order to avoid noise coupling into the node.
Recommendation 8: Keep R a , C a , and R b close to the VFB pin (see Figures 4 and 5). The VFB pin
is a high-impedance, sensitive node. Keep the trace to this pin as short as possible. Whenever
possible, connect R b directly to the GND pin instead of going through the GND plane.
Figure 6 shows an example schematic for the EN5312QI using the internal voltage select. In this
example, the device is set to a VOUT of 1.5V (VS2=0, VS1=1, VS0=1).
Figure 7 shows an example schematic using an external voltage divider. VS0=VS1=VS2= “1”. The
resistor values are chosen to give an output voltage of 2.6V.

Design Considerations for Lead-Frame Based Modules
Exposed Metal on Bottom of Package
Altera has developed a break-through in package technology that utilizes the lead frame as part of
the electrical circuit. The lead frame offers many advantages in thermal performance, in reduced
electrical lead resistance, and in overall foot print. However, it does require some special
considerations.
As part of the package assembly process, lead frame construction requires that for mechanical
support, some of the lead-frame cantilevers be exposed at the point where wire-bond or internal
passives are attached. This results in several small pads being exposed on the bottom of the
package.
Only the large thermal pad and the perimeter pin pads are to be mechanically or electrically
connected to the PC board. The PCB top layer under the EN5312QI should be clear of any metal
except for the large thermal pad. The “grayed-out” area in Figure 9 represents the area that should
be clear of any metal (traces, vias, or planes), on the top layer of the PCB.
NOTE: Clearance between the various exposed metal pads, the thermal ground pad, and the
perimeter pins, meets or exceeds JEDEC requirements for lead frame package construction (JEDEC
MO-220, Issue J, Date May 2005). The separation between the large thermal pad and the nearest
adjacent metal pad or pin is a minimum of 0.20mm, including tolerances. This is shown in Figure 10.
