The LMZ14201 SIMPLE SWITCHER power module is an easy-to-use step-down DC-DC solution capable of
driving up to 1A load with exceptional power conversion efficiency, line and load regulation, and output accuracy.
The LMZ14201 is available in an innovative package that enhances thermal performance and allows for hand or
machine soldering.
The LMZ14201 can accept an input voltage rail between 6V and 42V and deliver an adjustable and highly
accurate output voltage as low as 0.8V. The LMZ14201 only requires three external resistors and four external
capacitors to complete the power solution. The LMZ14201 is a reliable and robust design with the following
protection features: thermal shutdown, input under-voltage lockout, output over-voltage protection, short-circuit
protection, output current limit, and allows startup into a pre-biased output. A single resistor adjusts the switching
frequency up to 1 MHz.

COT Control Circuit Overview
PRODUCT PREVIEW
Constant On Time control is based on a comparator and an on-time one shot, with the output voltage feedback
compared with an internal 0.8V reference. 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.
Design Steps for the LMZ14201 Application
The LMZ14201 is fully supported by Webench® and offers the following: Component selection, electrical and
thermal simulations as well as the build-it board for a reduction in design time. The following list of steps can be
used to manually design the LMZ14201 application.
• Select minimum operating VIN with enable divider resistors
• Program VO with divider resistor selection
• Program turn-on time with soft-start capacitor selection
• Select CO
• Select CIN
• Set operating frequency with RON
• Determine module dissipation
• Layout PCB for required thermal performance
ENABLE DIVIDER, RENT AND RENB SELECTION
The enable input provides a precise 1.18V 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 (typ) of
hysteresis resulting in a falling threshold of 1.09V. The maximum recommended voltage into the EN pin is 6.5V.
For applications where the midpoint of the enable divider exceeds 6.5V, a small zener can be added to limit this
voltage.

SNVS649D – JANUARY 2010 – REVISED JUNE 2011
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 should 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
LMZ14201 output rail. The two resistors should be chosen based on the following ratio:
RENT / RENB = (VIN UVLO/ 1.18V) – 1 (1)
The LMZ14201 demonstration and evaluation boards use 11.8kΩ for RENB and 68.1kΩ for RENT resulting in a
rising UVLO of 8V. This divider presents 6.25V to the EN input when the divider input is raised to 42V.
The EN pin is internally pulled up to VIN and can be left floating for always-on operation.
OUTPUT VOLTAGE SELECTION
The regulated output voltage determined by the external divider resistors RFBT and RFBB is:
VO = 0.8V * (1 + RFBT / RFBB) (2)
Rearranging terms; the ratio of the feedback resistors for a desired output voltage is:
RFBT / RFBB = (VO / 0.8V) - 1 (3)
These resistors should be chosen from values in the range of 1.0 kohm to 10.0 kohm.
For VO = 0.8V the FB pin can be connected to the output directly so long as an output preload resistor remains
that draws more than 20uA. 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.
A table of values for RFBT , RFBB , CFF and RON is included in the applications schematic.
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 = 0.8V * CSS / 8uA (4)
This equation can be rearranged as follows:
CSS = tSS * 8 μA / 0.8V (5)
Use of a 0.022μF results in 2.2 msec soft-start interval which is recommended as a minimum value.
As the soft-start input exceeds 0.8V the output of the power stage will be in regulation. The soft-start capacitor
continues charging until it reaches approximately 3.8V on the SS pin. Voltage levels between 0.8V and 3.8V
have no effect on other circuit operation. Note that 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

Output voltage is determined by a divider of two resistors connected between VO and ground. The midpoint of
the divider is connected to the FB input. The voltage at FB is compared to a 0.8V internal reference. In normal
operation an on-time cycle is initiated when the voltage on the FB pin falls below 0.8V. The main MOSFET ontime cycle causes the output voltage to rise and the voltage at the FB to exceed 0.8V. As long as the voltage at
FB is above 0.8V, on-time cycles will not occur.

• Over-current fault
• Internal Vcc UVLO (Approximately 4V input to VIN)
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 * ILR P-P, as calculated in equation (19) below.
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 for more detail.
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)(6)
Solving:
CO≥ 1A*0.8V*10μH*24V / (4*3.3V*( 24V — 3.3V)*33mV)
≥ 21.3μF (7)
The LMZ14201 demonstration and evaluation boards are populated with a 100 uF 6.3V X5R output capacitor.
Locations for other output capacitors are provided.
PRODUCT PREVIEW
CIN SELECTION
The LMZ14201 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 should
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) (8)
where D ≊ VO / VIN
(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 10uF X7R ceramic with a voltage rating at least 25% higher than
the maximum applied input voltage for the application. It is also recommended that attention be paid to the
voltage and temperature deratings of the capacitor selected. It should be noted that 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(9)
If ΔVIN is 1% of VIN for a 24V input to 3.3V output application this equals 240 mV and fSW = 400 kHz.
CIN≥ 1A * 3.3V/24V * (1– 3.3V/24V) / (400000 * 0.240 V)
≥ 0.9μF
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.
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) (10)
This can be rearranged as
RON ≊ VO / (1.3 * 10 -10 * fSW(CCM)(11)

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 LMZ14201 timer is determined by the resistor RON and the input voltage VIN. It is calculated
as follows:
tON = (1.3 * 10-10 * RON) / VIN(12)
The inverse relationship of tON and VIN gives a nearly constant switching frequency as VIN is varied. RON should
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 nsec) (13)
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 nsec / (1.3 * 10 -10) (14)
If RON calculated in (11) is less than the minimum value determined in (14) a lower frequency should be selected.
Alternatively, VIN(MAX) can also be limited in order to keep the frequency unchanged.
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 since conduction and switching losses are
reduced with the smaller load and lower switching frequency. Operating frequency in DCM can be calculated as
follows:
fSW(DCM)≊VO*(VIN-1)*10μH*1.18*1020*IO/(VIN–VO)*RON2(15)
In CCM, current flows through the inductor through the entire switching cycle and never falls to zero during the
off-time. The switching frequency remains relatively constant with load current and line voltage variations. The
CCM operating frequency can be calculated using equation 7 above.
Following is a comparison pair of waveforms of the showing both CCM (upper) and DCM operating modes.

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)/(10µH*fSW*VIN) (17)
Where VIN is the maximum input voltage and fSW is determined from equation 10.
PRODUCT PREVIEW
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.
POWER DISSIPATION AND BOARD THERMAL REQUIREMENTS
For the design case of VIN = 24V, VO = 3.3V, IO = 1A, TAMB(MAX) = 85°C , and TJUNCTION = 125°C, the device must
see a thermal resistance from case to ambient of less than:
θCA< (TJ-MAX — TAMB(MAX)) / PIC-LOSS - θJC(18)
Given the typical thermal resistance from junction to case to be 1.9 °C/W. Use the 85°C power dissipation curves
in the Typical Performance Characteristics section to estimate the PIC-LOSS for the application being designed. In
this application it is 0.52W.
θCA = (125 — 85) / 0.52W — 1.9 = 75
To reach θCA = 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 x cm2/W / θJC(19)
As a result, approximately 6 square cm 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, 10mils (254 μm) thermal vias spaced 59mils (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 Evaluation Board application note AN-2024. For more information
on thermal design see AN-2020 and AN-2026.
PC BOARD LAYOUT GUIDELINES
PC board 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 LMZ14201. Therefore place CIN1
as close as possible to the LMZ14201 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 should consist of a localized
top side plane that connects to the GND exposed pad (EP).
The ground connections for the feedback, soft-start, and enable components should 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, should be located close to the FB
pin. Since the FB node is high impedance, maintain the copper area as small as possible. The trace are from
RFBT, RFBB, and CFF should be routed away from the body of the LMZ14201 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 x 6 via array with minimum via diameter of 10mils
(254 μm) thermal vias spaced 59mils (1.5 mm). Ensure enough copper area is used for heat-sinking to keep the
junction temperature below 125°C.
Additional Features
OUTPUT OVER-VOLTAGE COMPARATOR
The voltage at FB is compared to a 0.92V internal reference. If FB rises above 0.92V 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. Once 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.

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 2.0 (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 0.8V and the inductor current has decreased below 2.0A. Inductor current is monitored
during the period of time the synchronous MOSFET is conducting. So long as inductor current exceeds 2.0A,
further on-time intervals for the top MOSFET will not occur. Switching frequency is lower during current limit due
to the longer off-time. It should also be noted that current limit is dependent on both duty cycle and temperature
as illustrated in the graphs in the typical performance section.
THERMAL PROTECTION
The junction temperature of the LMZ14201 should not be allowed to exceed its maximum ratings. Thermal
protection is implemented by an internal Thermal Shutdown circuit which activates at 165 °C (typ) 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 (typ Hyst = 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.
PRODUCT PREVIEW
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.
PRE-BIASED STARTUP
The LMZ14201 will properly start up into a pre-biased output. This startup situation is common in multiple rail
logic applications where current paths may exist between different power rails during the startup sequence. The
following scope capture shows proper behavior during this event.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
