If the feedback voltage is below the reference, the main MOSFET is turned on for a fixed ON-time determined by a programming resistor RON. RON is connected to VIN such that ONtime is reduced with increasing input supply voltage. Following this ON-time, the main MOSFET remains off for a minimum of 260 ns. If the voltage on the feedback pin falls below the reference level again the ON-time cycle is repeated. Regulation is achieved in this manner. 7.2 Functional Block Diagram Vin VIN 1 Linear reg Cvcc 5 CIN SS Css CBST 3 EN RON 2 VOUT 7 RON Timer CFF 6 6.8 éH VO Co FB RFBT RFBB 0.47 éF Regulator IC Internal Passives GND 4 7.3 Feature Description 7.3.1 Output Overvoltage Comparator The voltage at FB is compared to a 0.92-V internal reference. If FB rises above 0.92 V, the ON-time is immediately terminated. This condition is known as over-voltage protection (OVP). It can occur if the input voltage is increased very suddenly or if the output load is decreased very suddenly. When OVP is activated, the top MOSFET ON-times will be inhibited until the condition clears. Additionally, the synchronous MOSFET will remain on until inductor current falls to zero. 7.3.2 Current Limit Current limit detection is carried out during the OFF-time by monitoring the current in the synchronous MOSFET. Referring to the Functional Block Diagram, when the top MOSFET is turned off, the inductor current flows through the load, the PGND pin and the internal synchronous MOSFET. If this current exceeds 2 A (typical) the current limit comparator disables the start of the next ON-time period. The next switching cycle will occur only if the FB input is less than 0.8 V and the inductor current has decreased below 2 A. Inductor current is monitored during the period of time the synchronous MOSFET is conducting. So long as inductor current exceeds 2 A, further ON-time intervals for the top MOSFET will not occur. Switching frequency is lower during current limit due to the longer OFF-time. Current limit is dependent on both duty cycle and temperature as illustrated in the graphs in the Typical Characteristics section. 12 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2010–2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMZ14201EXT LMZ14201EXT www.ti.com SNVS664H – JUNE 2010 – REVISED OCTOBER 2015 Feature Description (continued) 7.3.3 Thermal Protection The junction temperature of the LMZ14201EXT must not be allowed to exceed its maximum ratings. Thermal protection is implemented by an internal thermal shutdown circuit activates at 165°C (typical) causing the device to enter a low power standby state. In this state the main MOSFET remains off causing VO to fall, and additionally the CSS capacitor is discharged to ground. Thermal protection helps prevent catastrophic failures for accidental device overheating. When the junction temperature falls back below 145°C (typical hysteresis = 20°C) the SS pin is released, VO rises smoothly, and normal operation resumes. Applications requiring maximum output current especially those at high input voltage may require application derating at elevated temperatures. 7.3.4 Zero Coil Current Detection The current of the lower (synchronous) MOSFET is monitored by a zero coil current detection circuit which inhibits the synchronous MOSFET when its current reaches zero until the next ON-time. This circuit enables the DCM operating mode, which improves efficiency at light loads. 7.3.5 Prebiased Start-Up The LMZ14201EXT will properly start up into a prebiased output. This start-up situation is common in multiple rail logic applications where current paths may exist between different power rails during the start-up sequence. The following scope capture shows proper behavior during this event. Figure 33. Prebiased Start-Up 7.4 Device Functional Modes 7.4.1 Discontinuous Conduction and Continuous Conduction Modes At light load the regulator will operate in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). With load currents above the critical conduction point, it will operate in continuous conduction mode (CCM). When operating in DCM the switching cycle begins at zero amps inductor current; increases up to a peak value, and then recedes back to zero before the end of the OFF-time. Note that during the period of time that inductor current is zero, all load current is supplied by the output capacitor. The next ON-time period starts when the voltage on the at the FB pin falls below the internal reference. The switching frequency is lower in DCM and varies more with load current as compared to CCM. Conversion efficiency in DCM is maintained because conduction and switching losses are reduced with the smaller load and lower switching frequency.

The following list of steps can be used to manually design the LMZ14201EXT application. 1. Select minimum operating VIN with enable divider resistors 2. Program VO with divider resistor selection 3. Program turn-on time with soft-start capacitor selection 4. Select CO 5. Select CIN 6. Set operating frequency with RON 7. Determine module dissipation 8. Layout PCB for required thermal performance 8.2.2.1.1 Enable Divider, RENT and RENB Selection The enable input provides a precise 1.18-V band-gap rising threshold to allow direct logic drive or connection to a voltage divider from a higher enable voltage such as VIN. The enable input also incorporates 90 mV (typical) of hysteresis resulting in a falling threshold of 1.09 V. The maximum recommended voltage into the EN pin is 6.5V. For applications where the midpoint of the enable divider exceeds 6.5 V, a small Zener diode can be added to limit this voltage. The function of this resistive divider is to allow the designer to choose an input voltage below which the circuit will be disabled. This implements the feature of programmable under voltage lockout. This is often used in battery powered systems to prevent deep discharge of the system battery. It is also useful in system designs for sequencing of output rails or to prevent early turn-on of the supply as the main input voltage rail rises at powerup. Applying the enable divider to the main input rail is often done in the case of higher input voltage systems such as 24V AC/DC systems where a lower boundary of operation must be established. In the case of sequencing supplies, the divider is connected to a rail that becomes active earlier in the power-up cycle than the LMZ14201EXT output rail. The two resistors must be chosen based on the following ratio: RENT / RENB = (VIN UVLO / 1.18 V) – 1 (1) The LMZ14201EXT demonstration and evaluation boards use 11.8 kΩ for RENB and 68.1 kΩ for RENT resulting in a rising UVLO of 8V. This divider presents 6.25 V to the EN input when the divider input is raised to 42 V.

The midpoint of the divider is connected to the FB input. The voltage at FB is compared to a 0.8-V internal reference. In normal operation an ON-time cycle is initiated when the voltage on the FB pin falls below 0.8 V. The main MOSFET ONtime cycle causes the output voltage to rise and the voltage at the FB to exceed 0.8 V. As long as the voltage at FB is above 0.8 V, ON-time cycles will not occur. The regulated output voltage determined by the external divider resistors RFBT and RFBB is: VO = 0.8 V × (1 + RFBT / RFBB) (2) Rearranging terms; the ratio of the feedback resistors for a desired output voltage is: RFBT / RFBB = (VO / 0.8 V) – 1 (3) These resistors must be chosen from values in the range of 1.0 kΩ to 10.0 kΩ. For VO = 0.8 V the FB pin can be connected to the output directly so long as an output preload resistor remains that draws more than 20 µA. Converter operation requires this minimum load to create a small inductor ripple current and maintain proper regulation when no load is present. A feed-forward capacitor is placed in parallel with RFBT to improve load step transient response. Its value is usually determined experimentally by load stepping between DCM and CCM conduction modes and adjusting for best transient response and minimum output ripple. Table 1 lists the values for RFBT , RFBB , CFF, and RON. 8.2.2.1.3 Soft-Start Capacitor Selection Programmable soft-start permits the regulator to slowly ramp to its steady state operating point after being enabled, thereby reducing current inrush from the input supply and slowing the output voltage rise-time to prevent overshoot. Upon turn-on, after all UVLO conditions have been passed, an internal 8uA current source begins charging the external soft-start capacitor. The soft-start time duration to reach steady state operation is given by the formula: tSS = VREF × CSS / Iss = 0.8 V × CSS / 8 µA (4) This equation can be rearranged as follows: CSS = tSS × 8 μA / 0.8 V Use of a 0.022-μF results in 2.2 ms soft-start interval which is recommended as a minimum value. As the soft-start input exceeds 0.8 V, the output of the power stage will be in regulation. The soft-start capacitor continues charging until it reaches approximately 3.8 V on the SS pin. Voltage levels between 0.8 V and 3.8 V have no effect on other circuit operation. The following conditions will reset the soft-start capacitor by discharging the SS input to ground with an internal 200-μA current sink. • The enable input being pulled low • Thermal shutdown condition • Over-current fault • Internal VCC UVLO (Approx 4-V input to VIN) 8.2.2.1.4 CO Selection None of the required CO output capacitance is contained within the module. At a minimum, the output capacitor must meet the worst case minimum ripple current rating of 0.5 × ILRP-P, as calculated in Equation 16. Beyond that, additional capacitance will reduce output ripple so long as the ESR is low enough to permit it. A minimum value of 10 μF is generally required. Experimentation will be required if attempting to operate with a minimum value. Ceramic capacitors or other low ESR types are recommended. See AN-2024 SNVA422 for more details. The following equation provides a good first pass approximation of CO for load transient requirements: CO ≥ ISTEP × VFB × L × VIN/ (4 × VO × (VIN – VO) ×VOUT-TRAN) (5) Solving for Equation 5 yields the following: CO ≥ 1 A × 0.8 V × 10 μH × 24 V / (4 × 3.3 V × ( 24 V – 3.3 V) × 33 mV) CO ≥ 21.3 µF 16 Submit Documentation Feedback (6) Copyright © 2010–2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMZ14201EXT LMZ14201EXT www.ti.com SNVS664H – JUNE 2010 – REVISED OCTOBER 2015 The LMZ14201EXT demonstration and evaluation boards are populated with a 100-µF, 6.3-V X5R output capacitor. Locations for other output capacitors are provided. 8.2.2.1.5 CIN Selection The LMZ14201EXT module contains an internal 0.47-µF input ceramic capacitor. Additional input capacitance is required external to the module to handle the input ripple current of the application. This input capacitance must be located in very close proximity to the module. Input capacitor selection is generally directed to satisfy the input ripple current requirements rather than by capacitance value. Worst case input ripple current rating is dictated by the equation: I(CIN(RMS)) ≊ 1 /2 × IO × √ (D / 1-D) where • D ≊ VO / VIN (7) As a point of reference, the worst case ripple current will occur when the module is presented with full load current and when VIN = 2 × VO. Recommended minimum input capacitance is 10-µF X7R ceramic with a voltage rating at least 25% higher than the maximum applied input voltage for the application. Pay attention to the voltage and temperature deratings of the capacitor selected. Ripple current rating of ceramic capacitors may be missing from the capacitor data sheet and you may have to contact the capacitor manufacturer for this rating. If the system design requires a certain minimum value of input ripple voltage ΔVIN be maintained then the following equation may be used. CIN ≥ IO × D × (1–D) / fSW-CCM × ΔVIN (8) If ΔVIN is 1% of VIN for a 24-V input to 3.3-V output application this equals 240 mV and fSW = 400 kHz. CIN ≥ 1 A × 3.3 V / 24 V × (1– 3.3 V / 24 V) / (400000 × 0.240 V) CIN ≥ 0.9 μF Additional bulk capacitance with higher ESR may be required to damp any resonant effects of the input capacitance and parasitic inductance of the incoming supply lines. 8.2.2.1.6 RON Resistor Selection Many designs will begin with a desired switching frequency in mind. For that purpose the following equation can be used. fSW(CCM) ≊ VO / (1.3 × 10–10 × RON) (9) This can be rearranged as RON ≊ VO / (1.3 × 10 –10 × fSW(CCM)) (10) The selection of RON and fSW(CCM) must be confined by limitations in the ON-time and OFF-time for the COT control section. The ON-time of the LMZ14201EXT timer is determined by the resistor RON and the input voltage VIN. It is calculated as follows: tON = (1.3 × 10–10 × RON) / VIN (11) The inverse relationship of tON and VIN gives a nearly constant switching frequency as VIN is varied. RON must be selected such that the ON-time at maximum VIN is greater than 150 ns. The ON-timer has a limiter to ensure a minimum of 150 ns for tON. This limits the maximum operating frequency, which is governed by the following equation: fSW(MAX) = VO / (VIN(MAX) × 150 ns) (12) This equation can be used to select RON if a certain operating frequency is desired so long as the minimum ONtime of 150 ns is observed. The limit for RON can be calculated as follows: RON ≥ VIN(MAX) × 150 ns / (1.3 × 10–10) (13) If RON calculated in Equation 10 is less than the minimum value determined in Equation 13 a lower frequency must be selected. Alternatively, VIN(MAX) can also be limited in order to keep the frequency unchanged. Additionally, consider that the minimum OFF-time of 260 ns limits the maximum duty ratio. Larger RON (lower FSW) must be selected in any application requiring large duty ratio.

The switching frequency remains relatively constant with load current and line voltage variations. The CCM operating frequency can be calculated using Equation 9. Figure 35 shows a comparison pair of waveforms of the showing both CCM (upper) and DCM operating modes. Figure 35. CCM and DCM Operating Modes VIN = 12 V, VO = 3.3 V, IO = 1 A / 0.25 A The approximate formula for determining the DCM/CCM boundary is as follows: IDCB ≊ VO × (VIN – VO) / (2 × 10 μH × fSW(CCM) × VIN) (15) Figure 36 shows a typical waveform showing the boundary condition. Figure 36. Transition Mode Operation VIN = 24 V, VO = 3.3 V, IO = 0.29 A The inductor internal to the module is 10 μH. This value was chosen as a good balance between low and high input voltage applications. The main parameter affected by the inductor is the amplitude of the inductor ripple current (ILR). ILR can be calculated with: ILR P-P = VO × (VIN – VO) / (10 µH × fSW × VIN) where • • VIN is the maximum input voltage fSW is determined from Equation 9 (16) If the output current IO is determined by assuming that IO = IL, the higher and lower peak of ILR can be determined. Be aware that the lower peak of ILR must be positive if CCM operation is required. 18 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2010–2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMZ14201EXT LMZ14201EXT www.ti.com SNVS664H – JUNE 2010 – REVISED OCTOBER 2015 8.2.3 Application Curves 100 1.2 95 1 OUTPUT CURRENT (A) EFFICIENCY (%) 90 85 80 75 70 65 60 0.8 0.6 0.4 0.2 55 50 0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 0 50 1 60 70 80 90 100 110 120 OUTPUT CURRENT (A) AMBIENT TEMPERATURE (°C) Figure 37.

This input supply must be well regulated and able to withstand maximum input current and maintain a stable voltage. The resistance of the input supply rail must be low enough that an input current transient does not cause a high enough drop at the LMZ14201EXT supply voltage that can cause a false UVLO fault triggering and system reset. If the input supply is more than a few inches from the LMZ14201EXT, additional bulk capacitance may be required in addition to the ceramic bypass capacitors. The amount of bulk capacitance is not critical, but a 47-μF or 100-μF electrolytic capacitor is a typical choice. 10 Layout 10.1 Layout Guidelines PCB layout is an important part of DC-DC converter design. Poor board layout can disrupt the performance of a DC-DC converter and surrounding circuitry by contributing to EMI, ground bounce and resistive voltage drop in the traces. These can send erroneous signals to the DC-DC converter resulting in poor regulation or instability. Good layout can be implemented by following a few simple design rules. 1. Minimize area of switched current loops. From an EMI reduction standpoint, it is imperative to minimize the high di/dt paths during PC board layout. The high current loops that do not overlap have high di/dt content that will cause observable high frequency noise on the output pin if the input capacitor (CIN1) is placed at a distance away from the LMZ14201EXT. Therefore, place CIN1 as close as possible to the LMZ14201EXT VIN and GND exposed pad. This will minimize the high di/dt area and reduce radiated EMI. Additionally, grounding for both the input and output capacitor must consist of a localized top side plane that connects to the GND exposed pad (EP). 2. Have a single point ground. The ground connections for the feedback, soft-start, and enable components must be routed to the GND pin of the device. This prevents any switched or load currents from flowing in the analog ground traces. If not properly handled, poor grounding can result in degraded load regulation or erratic output voltage ripple behavior. Provide the single point ground connection from pin 4 to EP. 3. Minimize trace length to the FB pin. Both feedback resistors, RFBT and RFBB, and the feed forward capacitor CFF, must be located close to the FB pin. Because the FB node is high impedance, maintain the copper area as small as possible. The trace are from RFBT, RFBB, and CFF must be routed away from the body of the LMZ14201EXT to minimize noise. 4. Make input and output bus connections as wide as possible. This reduces any voltage drops on the input or output of the converter and maximizes efficiency. To optimize voltage accuracy at the load, ensure that a separate feedback voltage sense trace is made to the load. Doing so will correct for voltage drops and provide optimum output accuracy. 5. Provide adequate device heat-sinking. Use an array of heat-sinking vias to connect the exposed pad to the ground plane on the bottom PCB layer. If the PCB has a plurality of copper layers, these thermal vias can also be employed to make connection to inner layer heat-spreading ground planes. For best results use a 6 × 6 via array with a minimum via diameter of 8 mils thermal vias spaced 59 mils (1.5 mm). Ensure enough copper area is used for heat-sinking to keep the junction temperature below 125°C. 20 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2010–2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMZ14201EXT LMZ14201EXT www.ti.com SNVS664H – JUNE 2010 – REVISED OCTOBER 2015 10.2 Layout Example VIN LMZ14201EXT VIN VO VOUT High di/dt Cin1 CO1 GND Loop 2 Loop 1 Figure 40.

Use the 85°C power dissipation curves in the Typical Characteristics section to estimate the PIC-LOSS for the application being designed. In this application it is 0.52 W. RθCA = (125 – 85) / 0.52 W – 1.9 = 75 (18) To reach RθCA = 75, the PCB is required to dissipate heat effectively. With no airflow and no external heat, a good estimate of the required board area covered by 1-oz. copper on both the top and bottom metal layers is: Board Area_cm2 = 500°C × cm2/W / RθJC (19) As a result, approximately 6 cm² of 1-oz copper on top and bottom layers is required for the PCB design. Additional area will decrease die temperature proportionately. The PCB copper heat sink must be connected to the exposed pad. Approximately thirty six, 8 mils thermal vias spaced 59 mils (1.5 mm) apart must connect the top copper to the bottom copper. For an example of a high thermal performance PCB layout of approximately 31 square cm area. Refer to the AN-2024 LMZ1420x / LMZ1200x Evaluation Board, SNVA422. For more information on thermal design see AN-2020 SNVA419 and AN-2026 SNVA424. 10.4 Power Module SMT Guidelines The following recommendations are for a standard module surface mount assembly: • Land Pattern – Follow the PCB land pattern with either soldermask defined or non-soldermask defined pads • Stencil Aperture – For the exposed die attach pad (DAP), adjust the stencil for approximately 80% coverage of the PCB land pattern – For all other I/O pads, use a 1:1 ratio between the aperture and the land pattern recommendation • Solder Paste – Use a standard SAC alloy such as SAC 305, type 3, or higher • Stencil Thickness – 0.125 to 0.15mm • Reflow – Refer to solder paste supplier recommendation and optimized per board size and density • Refer to Design Summary LMZ1xxx and LMZ2xxx Power Modules Family (SNAA214) for reflow information. • Maximum number of reflows allowed is one Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2010–2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMZ14201EXT 23 LMZ14201EXT SNVS664H – JUNE 2010 – REVISED OCTOBER 2015 www.ti.com Power Module SMT Guidelines (continued) Figure 44.

(2) Eco Plan - The planned eco-friendly classification: Pb-Free (RoHS), Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt), or Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) - please check http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the latest availability information and additional product content details. TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined. Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements for all 6 substances, including the requirement that lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes. Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS compatible) as defined above. Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous material) (3) MSL, Peak Temp. - The Moisture Sensitivity Level rating according to the JEDEC industry standard classifications, and peak solder temperature. (4) There may be additional marking, which relates to the logo, the lot trace code information, or the environmental category on the device. (5) Multiple Device Markings will be inside parentheses. Only one Device Marking contained in parentheses and separated by a "~" will appear on a device. If a line is indented then it is a continuation of the previous line and the two combined represent the entire Device Marking for that device. (6) Lead/Ball Finish - Orderable Devices may have multiple material finish options. Finish options are separated by a vertical ruled line. Lead/Ball Finish values may wrap to two lines if the finish value exceeds the maximum column width.
