1 General Description
2 Key Features
The AS1335 is a high-efficiency, constant-frequency
synchronous buck converter available in a fixed or an
adjustable output voltage version. The wide input voltage range (2.6V to 5.25V), the high output current (up to
1.5A) and minimal external component requirements
make the AS1335 perfect for any single Li-Ion batterypowered application.
Typical supply current with no load is 400µA and
decreases to ≤1µA in shutdown mode. The highly efficient duty cycle (100%) provides low dropout operation,
prolonging battery life in portable systems.
The device also offers a power-ok signal with a 215ms
delay, which can be reseted or delayed further via the
RSI pin.
An internal synchronous switch increases efficiency and
eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode. The
internally fixed switching frequency (1.5MHz) allows for
the use of small surface mount external components.
The AS1335 is available in a 10-pin TDFN 3x3mm package.

Main Control Loop
During normal operation, the internal top power MOSFET is turned on each cycle when the oscillator sets the RS latch.
This switch is turned off when the current comparator (ICOMP) resets the RS latch. The peak inductor current (IPK) at
which ICOMP resets the RS latch, is controlled by the error amplifier. When ILOAD increases, VFB decreases slightly
relative to the internal 0.6V reference, causing the error amplifier’s output voltage to increase until the average inductor
current matches the new load current.
When the top MOSFET is off, the bottom MOSFET is turned on until the inductor current starts to reverse as indicated
by the current reversal comparator (IRCMP), or the next clock cycle begins. The over-voltage detection comparator
(OVDET) guards against transient overshoots >7.8% by turning the main switch off and keeping it off until the transient
is removed.

Short-Circuit Protection
This frequency reduction ensures that the inductor current has more time to decay, thus preventing runaway conditions. fOSC will progressively increase to 1.5MHz when VOUT > 0V or VFB > 0V.
Dropout Operation
The AS1335 is working with a low input-to-output voltage difference by operating at 100% duty cycle. In this state, the
PMOS is always on. This is particularly useful in battery-powered applications with a 3.3V output.
The AS1335 allows the output to follow the input battery voltage as it drops below the regulation voltage. The quiescent current in this state rises minimally to only 400µA (max), which aids in extending battery life. This dropout (100%
duty-cycle) operation achieves long battery life by taking full advantage of the entire battery range.
The input voltage requires maintaining regulation and is a function of the output voltage and the load. The difference
between the minimum input voltage and the output voltage is called the dropout voltage. The dropout voltage is therefore a function of the on-resistance of the internal PMOS (RDS(ON)PMOS) and the inductor resistance (DCR) and this is
proportional to the load current.
Note: At low VIN values, the RDS(ON) of the P-channel switch increases (see Electrical Characteristics on page 4).
Therefore, power dissipation should be taken in consideration.
Shutdown
Connecting EN to GND or logic low places the AS1335 in shutdown mode and reduces the supply current to 0.1µA. In
shutdown the control circuitry and the internal NMOS and PMOS turn off and SW becomes high impedance disconnecting the input from the output. The output capacitance and load current determine the voltage decay rate. For normal operation connect EN to VIN or logic high.
Note: Pin EN should not be left floating.
Power-OK Functionality
The AS1335’s power-ok circuitry offers a 215ms delayed power-ok signal. As long as the output voltage is outside of
the power-ok regulation window the POK pin drives an open-drain low signal. As soon as the output voltage is within
the regulation window, the internal open-drain MOSFET is turned off and the POK pin can be externally pulled to high.
The output of the power-ok signal is delayed by 215ms.
RSI Signal
With the RSI signal the internal power-ok timer can be reseted or delayed. As long as the input to RSI is high the POK
signal remains low, regardless of the output voltage condition.
Thermal Shutdown
Due to its high-efficiency design, the AS1335 will not dissipate much heat in most applications. However, in applications where the AS1335 is running at high ambient temperature, uses a low supply voltage, and runs with high duty
cycles (such as in dropout) the heat dissipated may exceed the maximum junction temperature of the device.
As soon as the junction temperature reaches approximately 150ºC the AS1335 goes in thermal shutdown. In this mode
the internal PMOS & NMOS switch are turned off. The device will power up again, as soon as the temperature falls
below +125°C again.

External Component Selection
Inductor Selection
For most applications the value of the external inductor should be in the range of 2.2µH to 4.7µH as the inductor value
has a direct effect on the ripple current. The selected inductor must be rated for its DC resistance and saturation current. The inductor ripple current (ΔIL) decreases with higher inductance and increases with higher VIN or VOUT.
In Equation (EQ 1) the maximum inductor current in PWM mode under static load conditions is calculated. The saturation current of the inductor should be rated higher than the maximum inductor current as calculated with Equation (EQ
2). This is recommended because the inductor current will rise above the calculated value during heavy load transients.

ΔI L = V OUT × ----------------------L×f
(EQ 1)
ΔI L
I LMAX = I OUTMAX + -------2
(EQ 2)
f = Switching Frequency (1.5 MHz typical)
L = Inductor Value
ILmax = Maximum Inductor current
ΔIL = Peak to Peak inductor ripple current
The recommended starting point for setting ripple current is ΔIL = 600mA (40% of 1.5A).
The DC current rating of the inductor should be at least equal to the maximum load current plus half the ripple current
to prevent core saturation. Thus, a 1.8A rated inductor should be sufficient for most applications (1.5A + 300mA).
Note: For highest efficiency, a low DC-resistance inductor is recommended.
Accepting larger values of ripple current allows the use of low inductance values, but results in higher output voltage
ripple, greater core losses, and lower output current capability.
The total losses of the coil have a strong impact on the efficiency of the DC/DC conversion and consist of both the
losses in the DC resistance and the following frequency-dependent components:
1. The losses in the core material (magnetic hysteresis loss, especially at high switching frequencies).
2. Additional losses in the conductor from the skin effect (current displacement at high frequencies).
3. Magnetic field losses of the neighboring windings (proximity effect).
4. Radiation losses.
Output Capacitor Selection
The advanced fast-response voltage mode control scheme of the AS1335 allows the use of tiny ceramic capacitors.
Because of their lowest output voltage ripple low ESR ceramic capacitors are recommended. X7R or X5R dielectric
output capacitor are recommended.
At high load currents, the device operates in PWM mode and the RMS ripple current is calculated as:
I RMSC

(EQ 3)
While operating in PWM mode the overall output voltage ripple is the sum of the voltage spike caused by the output
capacitor ESR plus the voltage ripple caused by charging and discharging the output capacitor:

(EQ 4)
Higher value, low cost ceramic capacitors are available in very small case sizes, and their high ripple current, high voltage rating, and low ESR make them ideal for switching regulator applications. Because the AS1335 control loop is not
dependant on the output capacitor ESR for stable operation, ceramic capacitors can be used to achieve very low output ripple and accommodate small circuit size.
At light loads, the converter operates in powersave mode and the output voltage ripple is in direct relation to the output
capacitor and inductor value used. Larger output capacitor and inductor values minimize the voltage ripple in powersave mode and tighten DC output accuracy in powersave mode.
Input Capacitor Selection
In continuous mode, the source current of the PMOS is a square wave of the duty cycle VOUT/VIN. To prevent large
voltage transients while minimizing the interference with other circuits caused by high input voltage spikes, a low ESR
input capacitor sized for the maximum RMS current must be used. The maximum RMS capacitor current is given as:

where the maximum average output current IMAX equals the peak current minus half the peak-to-peak ripple current,
IMAX = ILIM - ΔIL/2
This formula has a maximum at VIN = 2VOUT where IRMS = IOUT/2. This simple worst-case condition is commonly used
for design because even significant deviations only provide negligible affects.
The input capacitor can be increased without any limit for better input voltage filtering. Take care when using small
ceramic input capacitors. When a small ceramic capacitor is used at the input, and the power is being supplied through
long wires, such as from a wall adapter, a load step at the output, or VIN step on the input, can induce ringing at the VIN
pin. This ringing can then couple to the output and be mistaken as loop instability, or could even damage the part by
exceeding the maximum ratings.
Ceramic Input and Output Capacitors
When choosing ceramic capacitors for CIN and COUT, the X5R or X7R dielectric formulations are recommended.
These dielectrics have the best temperature and voltage characteristics for a given value and size. Y5V and Z5U
dielectric capacitors, aside from their wide variation in capacitance over temperature, become resistive at high frequencies and therefore should not be used.

Because ceramic capacitors lose a lot of their initial capacitance at their maximum rated voltage, it is recommended
that either a higher input capacity or a capacitance with a higher rated voltage is used.

AS1335
Datasheet - A p p l i c a t i o n I n f o r m a t i o n
Efficiency
The efficiency of a switching regulator is equivalent to:
Efficiency = (POUT/PIN)x100%
(EQ 6)
For optimum design, an analysis of the AS1335 is needed to determine efficiency limitations and to determine design
changes for improved efficiency. Efficiency can be expressed as:
Efficiency = 100% – (L1 + L2 + L3 + ...)
(EQ 7)
Where:
L1, L2, L3, etc. are the individual losses as a percentage of input power.
Althought all dissipative elements in the circuit produce losses, those four main sources should be considered for efficiency calculation:
Input Voltage Quiescent Current Losses
The VIN current is the DC supply current given in the electrical characteristics which excludes MOSFET driver and control currents. VIN current results in a small (<0.1%) loss that increases with VIN, even at no load. The VIN quiescent current loss dominates the efficiency loss at very low load currents.
I²R Losses
Most of the efficiency loss at medium to high load currents are attributed to I²R loss, and are calculated from the resistances of the internal switches (RSW) and the external inductor (RL). In continuous mode, the average output current
flowing through inductor L is split between the internal switches. Therefore, the series resistance looking into the SW
pin is a function of both NMOS & PMOS RDS(ON) as well as the the duty cycle (DC) and can be calculated as follows:
RSW = (RDS(ON)PMOS)(DC) + (RDS(ON)NMOS)(1 – DC)
(EQ 8)
The RDS(ON) for both MOSFETs can be obtained from the Electrical Characteristics on page 4. Thus, to obtain I²R
losses calculate as follows:
I²R losses = IOUT²(RSW + RL)
(EQ 9)
Switching Losses
The switching current is the sum of the control currents and the MOSFET driver. The MOSFET driver current results
from switching the gate capacitance of the power MOSFETs. If a MOSFET gate is switched from low to high to low
again, a packet of charge dQ moves from VIN to ground. The resulting dQ/dt is a current out of VIN that is typically
much larger than the DC bias current. In continuous mode:
IGC = f(QPMOS + QNMOS)
(EQ 10)
Where: QPMOS and QNMOS are the gate charges of the internal MOSFET switches.
The losses of the gate charges are proportional to VIN and thus their effects will be more visible at higher supply voltages.
Other Losses
Basic losses in the design of a system should also be considered. Internal battery resistances and copper trace can
account for additional efficiency degradations in battery operated systems. By making sure that CIN has adequate
charge storage and very low ESR at the given switching frequency, the internal battery and fuse resistance losses can
be minimized. CIN and COUT ESR dissipative losses and inductor core losses generally account for less than 2% total
additional loss.

Checking Transient Response
The main loop response can be evaluated by examining the load transient response. Switching regulators normally
take several cycles to respond to a step in load current. When a load step occurs, VOUT immediately shifts by an
amount equivalent to:
VDROP = ΔILOAD x ESR
(EQ 11)
Where:
ESR is the effective series resistance of COUT.
ΔILOAD also begins to charge or discharge COUT, which generates a feedback error signal. The regulator loop then acts
to return VOUT to its steady-state value. During this recovery time VOUT can be monitored for overshoot or ringing that
would indicate a stability problem.
Layout Considerations
The AS1335 requires proper layout and design techniques for optimum performance.

The power traces (GND, SW, and VIN) should be kept as short, direct, and wide as is practical.
Pin FB should be connected directly to the Output Voltage.
The positive plate of CIN should be connected as close to VIN as is practical since CIN provides the AC current to
the internal power MOSFETs.
Switching node SW should be kept far away from the sensitive FB node.
The negative plates of CIN and COUT should be kept as close to each other as is practical. A starpoint to Ground is
recommended.
