FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
•
•
•
•
•
The LM22678 switching regulator provides all of the
functions necessary to implement an efficient high
voltage step-down (buck) regulator using a minimum
of external components. This easy to use regulator
incorporates a 42V N-channel MOSFET switch
capable of providing up to 5A of load current.
Excellent line and load regulation along with high
efficiency (>90%) are featured. Voltage mode control
offers short minimum on-time, allowing the widest
ratio between input and output voltages. Internal loop
compensation means that the user is free from the
tedious task of calculating the loop compensation
components. Fixed 5V output and adjustable output
voltage options are available. A switching frequency
of 500 kHz allows for small external components and
good transient response. A precision enable input
allows simplification of regulator control and system
power sequencing. In shutdown mode the regulator
draws only 25 µA (typ.). Built in soft-start (500µs, typ)
saves external components. The LM22678 also has
built in thermal shutdown, and current limiting to
protect against accidental overloads.

Detailed Operating Description
The LM22678 incorporates a voltage mode constant frequency PWM architecture. In addition, input voltage feedforward is used to stabilize the loop gain against variations in input voltage. This allows the loop compensation to
be optimized for transient performance. The power MOSFET, in conjunction with the diode, produce a
rectangular waveform at the switch pin, that swings from about zero volts to VIN. The inductor and output
capacitor average this waveform to become the regulator output voltage. By adjusting the duty cycle of this
waveform, the output voltage can be controlled. The error amplifier compares the output voltage with the internal
reference and adjusts the duty cycle to regulate the output at the desired value.
The internal loop compensation of the -ADJ option is optimized for outputs of 5V and below. If an output voltage
of 5V or greater is required, the -5.0 option can be used with an external voltage divider. The minimum output
voltage is equal to the reference voltage; 1.285V (typ.).
The functional block diagram of the LM22678 is shown in Figure 11 .
Precision Enable and UVLO
The precision enable input (EN) is used to control the regulator. The precision feature allows simple sequencing
of multiple power supplies with a resistor divider from another supply. Connecting this pin to ground or to a
voltage less than 1.6V (typ.) will turn off the regulator. The current drain from the input supply, in this state, is 25
µA (typ.) at an input voltage of 12V. The EN input has an internal pull-up of about 6 µA. Therefore this pin can be
left floating or pulled to a voltage greater than 2.2V (typ.) to turn the regulator on. The hysteresis on this input is
about 0.6V (typ.) above the 1.6V (typ.) threshold. When driving the enable input, the voltage must never exceed
the 6V absolute maximum specification for this pin.

Although an internal pull-up is provided on the EN pin, it is good practice to pull the input high, when this feature
is not used, especially in noisy environments. This can most easily be done by connecting a resistor between
VIN and the EN pin. The resistor is required, since the internal zener diode, at the EN pin, will conduct for
voltages above about 6V. The current in this zener must be limited to less than 100 µA. A resistor of 470 kΩ will
limit the current to a safe value for input voltages as high 42V. Smaller values of resistor can be used at lower
input voltages.
The LM22678 also incorporates an input under voltage lock-out (UVLO) feature. This prevents the regulator from
turning on when the input voltage is not great enough to properly bias the internal circuitry. The rising threshold is
4.3V (typ.) while the falling threshold is 3.9V (typ.). In some cases these thresholds may be too low to provide
good system performance. The solution is to use the EN input as an external UVLO to disable the part when the
input voltage falls below a lower boundary. This is often used to prevent excessive battery discharge or early
turn-on during start-up. This method is also recommended to prevent abnormal device operation in applications
where the input voltage falls below the minimum of 4.5V. Figure 12 shows the connections to implement this
method of UVLO. The following equations can be used to determine the correct resistor values:
(1)
(2)
Where Voff is the input voltage where the regulator shuts off, and Von is the voltage where the regulator turns on.
Due to the 6 µA pull-up, the current in the divider should be much larger than this. A value of 20 kΩ, for RENB is a
good first choice. Also, a zener diode may be needed between the EN pin and ground, in order to comply with
the absolute maximum ratings on this pin.

Duty-Cycle Limits
Ideally the regulator would control the duty cycle over the full range of zero to one. However due to inherent
delays in the circuitry, there are limits on both the maximum and minimum duty cycles that can be reliably
controlled. This in turn places limits on the maximum and minimum input and output voltages that can be
converted by the LM22678. A minimum on-time is imposed by the regulator in order to correctly measure the
switch current during a current limit event. A minimum off-time is imposed in order the re-charge the bootstrap
capacitor. The following equation can be used to determine the approximate maximum input voltage for a given
output voltage:
(3)
Where Fsw is the switching frequency and TON is the minimum on-time; both found in the Electrical
Characteristics table. The worst case occurs at the lowest output voltage. If the input voltage, found in the above
equation, is exceeded, the regulator will skip cycles, effectively lowering the switching frequency. The
consequences of this are higher output voltage ripple and a degradation of the output voltage accuracy.
The second limitation is the maximum duty cycle before the output voltage will "dropout" of regulation. The
following equation can be used to approximate the minimum input voltage before dropout occurs:

The values of TOFF and RDS(ON) are found in the Electrical Characteristics table. The worst case here occurs at
the highest load. In this equation, RL is the D.C. inductor resistance. Of course, the lowest input voltage to the
regulator must not be less than 4.5V (typ.).
Current Limit
The LM22678 has current limiting to prevent the switch current from exceeding safe values during an accidental
overload on the output. This peak current limit is found in the Electrical Characteristics table under the heading of
ICL. The maximum load current that can be provided, before current limit is reached, is determined from the
following equation:
(5)
Where L is the value of the power inductor.
When the LM22678 enters current limit, the output voltage will drop and the peak inductor current will be fixed at
ICL at the end of each cycle. The switching frequency will remain constant while the duty cycle drops. The load
current will not remain constant, but will depend on the severity of the overload and the output voltage.
For very severe overloads ("short-circuit"), the regulator changes to a low frequency current foldback mode of
operation. The frequency foldback is about 1/5 of the nominal switching frequency. This will occur when the
current limit trips before the minimum on-time has elapsed. This mode of operation is used to prevent inductor
current "run-away", and is associated with very low output voltages when in overload. The following equation can
be used to determine what level of output voltage will cause the part to change to low frequency current foldback:
(6)
Where Fsw is the normal switching frequency and Vin is the maximum for the application. If the overload drives
the output voltage to less than or equal to Vx, the part will enter current foldback mode. If a given application can
drive the output voltage to ≤Vx, during an overload, then a second criterion must be checked. The next equation
gives the maximum input voltage, when in this mode, before damage occurs:
(7)
Where Vsc is the value of output voltage during the overload and Fsw is the normal switching frequency. If the
input voltage should exceed this value, while in foldback mode, the regulator and/or the diode may be
damaged. It is important to note that the voltages in these equations are measured at the inductor. Normal trace
and wiring resistance will cause the voltage at the inductor to be higher than that at a remote load. Therefore,
even if the load is shorted with zero volts across its terminals, the inductor will still see a finite voltage. It is this
value that should be used for Vx and Vsc in the calculations. In order to return from foldback mode, the load must
be reduced to a value much lower than that required to initiate foldback. This load "hysteresis" is a normal aspect
of any type of current limit foldback associated with voltage regulators.
The safe operating area, when in short circuit mode, is shown in Figure 13. Operating points below and to the
right of the curve represent safe operation.

Soft-Start
The soft-start feature allows the regulator to gradually reach steady-state operation, thus reducing start-up
stresses. The internal soft-start feature brings the output voltage up in about 500 µs. This time is fixed and can
not be changed. Soft-start is reset any time the part is shut down or a thermal overload event occurs.
Boot-Strap Supply
The LM22678 incorporates a floating high-side gate driver to control the power MOSFET. The supply for this
driver is the external boot-strap capacitor connected between the BOOT pin and SW. A good quality 10 nF
ceramic capacitor must be connected to these pins with short, wide PCB traces. One reason the regulator
imposes a minimum off-time is to ensure that this capacitor recharges every switching cycle. A minimum load of
about 5 mA is required to fully recharge the boot-strap capacitor in the minimum off-time. Some of this load can
be provided by the output voltage divider, if used.
Thermal Protection
Internal thermal shutdown circuitry protects the LM22678 should the maximum junction temperature be
exceeded. This protection is activated at about 150°C, with the result that the regulator will shutdown until the
temperature drops below about 135°C.
Internal Loop Compensation
The LM22678 has internal loop compensation designed to provide a stable regulator over a wide range of
external power stage components.
The internal compensation of the -ADJ option is optimized for output voltages below 5V. If an output voltage of
5V or greater is needed, the -5.0 option with an external resistor divider can be used.
Ensuring stability of a design with a specific power stage (inductor and output capacitor) can be tricky. The
LM22678 stability can be verified using the WEBENCH Designer online circuit simulation tool at www.ti.com. A
quick start spreadsheet can also be downloaded from the online product folder.
The complete transfer function for the regulator loop is found by combining the compensation and power stage
transfer functions. The LM22678 has internal type III loop compensation, as detailed in Figure 14. This is the
approximate "straight line" function from the FB pin to the input of the PWM modulator. The power stage transfer
function consists of a D.C. gain and a second order pole created by the inductor and output capacitor(s). Due to
the input voltage feed forward employed in the LM22678, the power stage D.C. gain is fixed at 20dB. The second
order pole is characterized by its resonant frequency and its quality factor (Q). For a first pass design, the
product of inductance and output capacitance should conform to the following equation:

Alternatively, this pole should be placed between 1.5kHz and 15kHz and is given by the equation shown below:
(9)
The Q factor depends on the parasitic resistance of the power stage components and is not typically in the
control of the designer. Of course, loop compensation is only one consideration when selecting power stage
components; see Application Information for more details.

In general, hand calculations or simulations can only aid in selecting good power stage components. Good
design practice dictates that load and line transient testing should be done to verify the stability of the application.
Also, Bode plot measurements should be made to determine stability margins. Application note AN-1889

EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
The following guidelines should be used when designing a step-down (buck) converter with the LM22678.
INDUCTOR
The inductor value is determined based on the load current, ripple current, and the minimum and maximum input
voltages. To keep the application in continuous conduction mode (CCM), the maximum ripple current, IRIPPLE ,
should be less than twice the minimum load current. The general rule of keeping the inductor current peak-topeak ripple around 30% of the nominal output current is a good compromise between excessive output voltage
ripple and excessive component size and cost. Using this value of ripple current, the value of inductor, L, is
calculated using the following formula:
(10)
where Fsw is the switching frequency and Vin should be taken at its maximum value, for the given application.
The above formula provides a guide to select the value of the inductor L; the nearest standard value will then be
used in the circuit.
Once the inductor is selected, the actual ripple current can be found from the equation shown below:
(11)
Increasing the inductance will generally slow down the transient response but reduce the output voltage ripple.
Reducing the inductance will generally improve the transient response but increase the output voltage ripple.
The inductor must be rated for the peak current, IPK, in a given application, to prevent saturation. During normal
loading conditions, the peak current is equal to the load current plus 1/2 of the inductor ripple current.
During an overload condition, as well as during certain load transients, the controller may trip current limit. In this
case the peak inductor current is given by ICL, found in the Electrical Characteristics table. Good design practice
requires that the inductor rating be adequate for this overload condition. If the inductor is not rated for the
maximum expected current, it can saturate resulting in damage to the LM22678 and/or the power diode.

SNVS585K – SEPTEMBER 2008 – REVISED MARCH 2013
INPUT CAPACITOR
The input capacitor selection is based on both input voltage ripple and RMS current. Good quality input
capacitors are necessary to limit the ripple voltage at the VIN pin while supplying most of the regulator current
during switch on-time. Low ESR ceramic capacitors are preferred. Larger values of input capacitance are
desirable to reduce voltage ripple and noise on the input supply. This noise may find its way into other circuitry,
sharing the same input supply, unless adequate bypassing is provided. A very approximate formula for
determining the input voltage ripple is shown below:
(12)
Where Vri is the peak-to-peak ripple voltage at the switching frequency. Another concern is the RMS current
passing through this capacitor. The following equation gives an approximation to this current:
(13)
The capacitor must be rated for at least this level of RMS current at the switching frequency.
All ceramic capacitors have large voltage coefficients, in addition to normal tolerances and temperature
coefficients. To help mitigate these effects, multiple capacitors can be used in parallel to bring the minimum
capacitance up to the desired value. This may also help with RMS current constraints by sharing the current
among several capacitors. Many times it is desirable to use an electrolytic capacitor on the input, in parallel with
the ceramics. The moderate ESR of this capacitor can help to damp any ringing on the input supply caused by
long power leads. This method can also help to reduce voltage spikes that may exceed the maximum input
voltage rating of the LM22678.
It is good practice to include a high frequency bypass capacitor as close as possible to the LM22678. This small
case size, low ESR, ceramic capacitor should be connected directly to the VIN and GND pins with the shortest
possible PCB traces. Values in the range of 0.47 µF to 1 µF are appropriate. This capacitor helps to provide a
low impedance supply to sensitive internal circuitry. It also helps to suppress any fast noise spikes on the input
supply that may lead to increased EMI.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR
The output capacitor is responsible for filtering the output voltage and supplying load current during transients.
Capacitor selection depends on application conditions as well as ripple and transient requirements. Best
performance is achieved with a parallel combination of ceramic capacitors and a low ESR SP™ or POSCAP™
type. Very low ESR capacitors such as ceramics reduce the output ripple and noise spikes, while higher value
electrolytics or polymer provide large bulk capacitance to supply transients. Assuming very low ESR, the
following equation gives an approximation to the output voltage ripple:
(14)
Typically, a total value of 100 µF, or greater, is recommended for output capacitance.
In applications with Vout less than 3.3V, it is critical that low ESR output capacitors are selected. This will limit
potential output voltage overshoots as the input voltage falls below the device normal operating range.
BOOT-STRAP CAPACITOR
The bootstrap capacitor between the BOOT pin and the SW pin supplies the gate current to turn on the Nchannel MOSFET. The recommended value of this capacitor is 10 nF and should be a good quality, low ESR
ceramic capacitor. In some cases it may be desirable to slow down the turn-on of the internal power MOSFET, in
order to reduce EMI. This can be done by placing a small resistor in series with the Cboot capacitor. Resistors in
the range of 10Ω to 50Ω can be used. This technique should only be used when absolutely necessary, since it
will increase switching losses and thereby reduce efficiency.
OUTPUT VOLTAGE DIVIDER SELECTION
For output voltages between about 1.285V and 5V, the -ADJ option should be used, with an appropriate voltage
divider as shown in Figure 16. The following equation can be used to calculate the resistor values of this divider:

A good value for RFBB is 1k Ω. This will help to provide some of the minimum load current requirement and
reduce susceptibility to noise pick-up. The top of RFBT should be connected directly to the output capacitor or to
the load for remote sensing. If the divider is connected to the load, a local high-frequency bypass should be
provided at that location.
For output voltages of 5V, the -5.0 option should be used. In this case no divider is needed and the FB pin is
connected to the output. The approximate values of the internal voltage divider are as follows: 7.38kΩ from the
FB pin to the input of the error amplifier and 2.55kΩ from there to ground.
Both the -ADJ and -5.0 options can be used for output voltages greater than 5V, by using the correct output
divider. As mentioned in Internal Loop Compensation, the -5.0 option is optimized for output voltages of 5V.
However, for output voltages greater than 5V, this option may provide better loop bandwidth than the -ADJ
option, in some applications. If the -5.0 option is to be used at output voltages greater than 5V, the following
equation should be used to determine the resistor values in the output divider:
(16)
Again a value of RFBB of about 1k Ω is a good first choice.

Figure 16. Resistive Feedback Divider
A maximum value of 10 kΩ is recommended for the sum of RFBB and RFBT to maintain good output voltage
accuracy for the -ADJ option. A maximum of 2 kΩ is recommended for the -5.0 option. For the -5.0 option, the
total internal divider resistance is typically 9.93 kΩ.
In all cases the output voltage divider should be placed as close as possible to the FB pin of the LM22678; since
this is a high impedance input and is susceptible to noise pick-up.
POWER DIODE
A Schottky type power diode is required for all LM22678 applications. Ultra-fast diodes are not recommended
and may result in damage to the IC due to reverse recovery current transients. The near ideal reverse recovery
characteristics and low forward voltage drop of Schottky diodes are particularly important for high input voltage
and low output voltage applications common to the LM22678. The reverse breakdown rating of the diode should
be selected for the maximum VIN, plus some safety margin. A good rule of thumb is to select a diode with a
reverse voltage rating of 1.3 times the maximum input voltage.
Select a diode with an average current rating at least equal to the maximum load current that will be seen in the
application.
Circuit Board Layout
Board layout is critical for the proper operation of switching power supplies. First, the ground plane area must be
sufficient for thermal dissipation purposes. Second, appropriate guidelines must be followed to reduce the effects
of switching noise. Switch mode converters are very fast switching devices. In such cases, the rapid increase of
input current combined with the parasitic trace inductance generates unwanted L di/dt noise spikes. The
magnitude of this noise tends to increase as the output current increases. This noise may turn into
electromagnetic interference (EMI) and can also cause problems in device performance. Therefore, care must be
taken in layout to minimize the effect of this switching noise.

The most important layout rule is to keep the AC current loops as small as possible. Figure 17 shows the current
flow in a buck converter. The top schematic shows a dotted line which represents the current flow during the FET
switch on-state. The middle schematic shows the current flow during the FET switch off-state.
The bottom schematic shows the currents referred to as AC currents. These AC currents are the most critical
since they are changing in a very short time period. The dotted lines of the bottom schematic are the traces to
keep as short and wide as possible. This will also yield a small loop area reducing the loop inductance. To avoid
functional problems due to layout, review the PCB layout example. Best results are achieved if the placement of
the LM22678, the bypass capacitor, the Schottky diode, RFBB, RFBT, and the inductor are placed as shown in the
example. Note that, in the layout shown, R1 = RFBB and R2 = RFBT. It is also recommended to use 2oz copper
boards or heavier to help thermal dissipation and to reduce the parasitic inductances of board traces. See
application note AN-1229 SNVA054 for more information.
Figure 17. Current Flow in a Buck Application
Thermal Considerations
The components with the highest power dissipation are the power diode and the power MOSFET internal to the
LM22678 regulator. The easiest method to determine the power dissipation within the LM22678 is to measure
the total conversion losses then subtract the power losses in the diode and inductor. The total conversion loss is
the difference between the input power and the output power. An approximation for the power diode loss is:
(17)
Where VD is the diode voltage drop. An approximation for the inductor power is:
(18)
where RL is the DC resistance of the inductor and the 1.1 factor is an approximation for the AC losses.
The regulator has an exposed thermal pad to aid power dissipation. Adding multiple vias under the device to the
ground plane will greatly reduce the regulator junction temperature. Selecting a diode with an exposed pad will
also aid the power dissipation of the diode. The most significant variables that affect the power dissipation of the
regulator are output current, input voltage and operating frequency. The power dissipated while operating near
the maximum output current and maximum input voltage can be appreciable. The junction-to-ambient thermal
resistance of the LM22678 will vary with the application. The most significant variables are the area of copper in
the PC board, the number of vias under the IC exposed pad and the amount of forced air cooling provided. A
large continuous ground plane on the top or bottom PCB layer will provide the most effective heat dissipation.
The integrity of the solder connection from the IC exposed pad to the PC board is critical. Excessive voids will
greatly diminish the thermal dissipation capacity. The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the LM22678
PFM package is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. See application note AN-2020 SNVA419 for
more information.
