The FAN5235 is a high efficiency and high precision
DC/DC controller for notebook converters. Utilization of
both input and output voltage feedback in a current-mode
control allows for fast and stable loop response over a wide
range of input and output voltage variations. The two main
regulators switch out of phase to minimize input ripple
current.

Notes
1. The minimum input voltage does not include voltage drop in the source supply due to source resistance. It is operating voltage
for static load conditions. To get acceptable load transient performance, the input voltage required will be much higher, in the
7.5 to 8.5 volt range or even higher depending on the severity of dynamic load, source impedance and input and output
capacitance and inductor values. The user should thoroughly test the performance at minimum input voltage using intended
component values and transient loading.
2. Min/Max specifications are guaranteed by design.

Functional Description
3.3V and 5V PWM Loop Compensation
The FAN5235 is a high efficiency and high precision DC/DC
controller for notebook and other portable applications. It
provides all of the voltages necessary for system electronics:
5V, 3.3V, 12V, and both 3.3V-ALWAYS and 5V-ALWAYS.
Utilization of both input and output voltage feedback in a
current-mode control allows for fast loop response over a
wide range of input and output variations. Current sense
based on MOSFET RDS,on gives maximum efficiency, while
also permitting the use of a sense resistor for high accuracy.
The 3.3V and 5V control loops of the FAN5235 function as
voltage mode with current feedback for stability. They each
have an independent voltage feedback pin, as shown in
Figure 1. They use voltage feed-forward to guarantee loop
rejection of input voltage variation: that is to say that the
PWM (pulse width modulation) ramp amplitude is varied as
a function of the input voltage. Compensation of the control
loops is done entirely internally using current-mode feedback compensation. This scheme allows the bandwidth and
phase margin to be almost independent of output capacitance
and ESR.
3.3V and 5V Architecture
The 3.3V and 5V switching regulator outputs of the
FAN5235 are generated from the unregulated input voltage
using synchronous buck converters. Both high side and lowside MOSFETs are N-channel.
The 3.3V and 5V switchers have pins for current sensing and
for setting of output over-current threshold using MOSFET
RDS,on. Each converter has a pin for voltage-sense feedback,
a pin that shuts down the converter, and a pin for generating
the boost voltage to drive the high-side MOSFET.
The following discussion of the FAN5235 design will be
done with reference to Figures 1 through 4, showing the
internal block diagram of the IC.
3.3V and 5V PWM Current Sensing
Peak current sensing is done on the low side driver because
of the very low duty-cycle on the high side MOSFET. The
current is sampled 50ns after turn on and the value is held for
current feedback and over-current limit.
REV. 1.3.3 1/3/02
3.3V and 5V PWM Current Limit
The 3.3V and 5V converters each sense the voltage across
their own low-side MOSFET to determine whether to enter
current limit. If an output current in excess of the current
limit threshold is measured then the converter enters a pulse
skipping mode where Iout is equal to the over-current (OC)
set limit. After 8 clock cycles then the regulator is latched off
(HSD and LSD off). This is the likely scenario in the case of
a "soft" short. If the short is "hard" it will instantly
trigger the under-voltage protection which again will latch
the regulator off (HSD and LSD off) after a 2µs delay.
Selection of a current-limit set resistor must include the
tolerance of the current-limit trip point, the MOSFET on
resistance and temperature coefficient, and the ripple current,
in addition to the maximum output current.
Example: Maximum DC output current on the 5V is 5A,
the MOSFET RDS,on is 17mΩ, and the inductor is 5µH at a
current of 5A. Because of the low RDS,on, the low-side
MOSFET will have a maximum temperature (ambient +
self-heating) of only 75°C, at which its RDS,on increases to
20mΩ.
7
FAN5235
Peak current is DC output current plus peak ripple current:
Ipk ≈ Idc +
TV0
2L
= 5A +
4µsec • 5V
= 7A
2 • 5µH
where T is the maximum period, VO is output voltage, and L
is the inductance. This current generates a voltage on the
low-side MOSFET of 7A • 20mΩ = 140mV. The current
limit threshold is typically 150mV (worst-case 135mV) with
R2 = 1KΩ, and so this value is suitable. R2 could be
increased a further 10% if additional noise margin is deemed
necessary.
The 3.3V (5V) main converter is turned ON if SDWN and
SDN3.3 (SDN5) are both high and is turned off if either SDWN
or SDN3.3 (SDN5) is low.
Stand-by mode is defined as the condition by which V-Mains
are OFF and V-ALWAYS are ON (SDWN=1 and
SDN3.3=SDN5=0).
ALWAYS mode of Operation
If it is desired that 5V-ALWAYS and 3.3V-ALWAYS are always
ON then the SDWN pin must be connected to Vin permanently.
This way the two ALWAYS regulators come up as soon as there
is power while the state of the Main regulators can be controlled
via the SDN5 and SDN3.3 pins.
Precision Current Limit
Precision current limiting can be achieved by placing a
discrete sense resistor between the source of the low-side
MOSFET and ground.

Figure 4. Using a Precision Current Sense Resistor
Shutdown (SDWN)
The SDWN pin turns off all 5 converters (+5V, +3.3V, and
+12V, 5V/3.3V-ALWAYS) and puts the FAN5235 into a lowpower mode (Shutdown mode).
This mode of operation implies the use of a push button
switch between SDWN and Vin. Pushing the button allows
(for the duration of the contact) to power the 3.3V-ALWAYS
and 5V-ALWAYS long enough for the uC to power up and in
turn latch the SDWN pin high.
Once the SDWN is high then the ALWAYS voltages are
enabled to go high if the respective SDN3.3 and SDN5 go
high.
MAIN 3.3V and 5V Softstart, Sequencing and
Stand-by
Softstart of the 3.3V and 5V converters is accomplished by
means of an external capacitor between pins SDN3.3 (SDN5)
and ground.
REV. 1.3.3 1/3/02
The output voltage of the 3.3V converter can be increased by
as much as 10% by inserting a resistor divider in the feedback
line. The feedback pin impedance is about 66KΩ. Thus, for
example, to increase the output of the 3.3V converter by 10%,
use a 2.21KΩ/33.2KΩ divider.
Note that the output of the 5V regulator cannot be adjusted.
The feedback line of the 5V regulator is used internally as a
5V supply and, therefore, cannot tolerate any impedance in
series with it.
3.3V and 5V Main Overvoltage Protection
(Soft Crowbar)
When the output voltage of the 3.3V (or the 5V) converter
exceeds approximately 115% of nominal, the converter enters
the over-voltage (OV) protection mode, with the goal of protecting the load from damage. During operation, severe load
dump or a short of an upper MOSFET could cause the output
voltage to increase significantly over normal operation range
without circuit protection. When the output exceeds the overvoltage threshold, the over-voltage comparator forces the
lower gate driver high and turns the lower MOSFET on. This
will pull down the output voltage and eventually may blow the
battery fuse. As soon as output voltage drops below the threshold, OVP comparator is disengaged.
The OVP scheme also provides a soft crowbar function
(bang-bang control followed by blow of the fuse) which
helps to tackle severe load transients but does not invert output voltage when activated—a common problem for OVP
schemes with a latch. The prevention of output inversion
eliminates the need for a Schottky diode across the load.

FAN5235
3.3V and 5V Under-voltage Protection
5V/3.3V-ALWAYS Operation
When the output voltage of either the 3.3V or 5V falls below
75% of the nominal value, both converters, go into undervoltage (UV) protection, after a 2usec delay. In undervoltage protection, the high and low side MOSFETs are
turned off. Once under-voltage protection is triggered, it
remains on until power is recycled or the SDWN pin is reset.
The 5V-ALWAYS supply is generated from either the onchip linear regulator or through an internal switch from the
VFB pin of the 5V switching supply.
12V Architecture
The 12V converter is a traditional non-isolated fly-back (also
known as a "boost" converter). The converter’s input voltage
is the +5V switcher output, so that +12V can only be present
if +5V is present. Also, if the external MOSFET is off, the
output of the +12V converter is +5V, not zero. This in turn
will provide non-zero output for the 12V regulator.
For complete turn-off of the 12V regulator an external
P-channel MOSFET or an LDO regulator with on/off control
may be used. If an LDO is used for 12V then the boost
converter should be set to 13.2V using the external resistor
divider network.
12V Loop Compensation
The 12V converter should be run in discontinuous conduction mode. In this mode, the converter will be stable if a
capacitor with suitable ESR value is selected. A 68uF
tantalum with 500mA ripple current rating and 95mΩ is
recommended here.
12V Protection
The 12V converter is protected against overvoltage. If the
12V feedback is more than 10–15% above the nominal set
voltage, a comparator forces the MOSFET off until the voltage falls below the comparator threshold.
The 12V converter is also protected against over-current. If a
short circuit pulls the output below 9V, all of the switching
converters go into UV protection, after a 2µs delay. In UV
protection, all MOSFETs are turned off. Once UV protection
is triggered, it remains on until the input power is recycled or
the SDWN is reset.
When the 5V switching supply is off, or if its output voltage
is not within tolerance, the 5V-ALWAYS switch is open, and
the linear regulator is on. When the 5V switching supply is
running and has an output voltage within specification, the
linear regulator is off, and the switch is on. The switch has
sufficiently low resistance that at maximum current draw on
the 5V-ALWAYS supply, the output voltage is regulated
within specifications.
The 3.3V-ALWAYS is generated from a linear regulator
attached internally to the 5V-ALWAYS.
The purpose of the two ALWAYS supplies (combined current is specified to never exceed 50mA) is to provide power
to the system micro-controller (8051 class) as well as other
IC’s needing a stand-by power. The micro-controller as well
as the other IC’s could be operated from either 5V or 3.3V
ALWAYS, so the FAN5235 provides both.
5V/3.3V-ALWAYS Protections
The two internal linear regulators are current limited and
under-voltage protected. Once protection is triggered all
outputs are turned off until power is cycled or the SDWN is
reset.
Power good
Power good is asserted when both PWM Buck converters are
above specified threshold. No other regulators are monitored
by Power good. When PGOOD goes low it will stay low for
at least 10µsec (Tw). See fig. 5.

12V Softstart and Sequencing
The 12V output is started at the same time as the 5V output.
The softly rising 5V output automatically generates a softly
rising 12V output. The duty cycle of the 12V PWM is limited to prevent excessive current draw.
The 12V supply must build up a voltage higher than the
UVLO limit (9V) by the time the 5V is above its UVLO
(3.75V) in order to avoid triggering of UV protection during
soft start.

Error Amplifier output voltage clamp
Input UVLO
During a load transient the error amplifier voltage is allowed
full swing. After two clock cycles, if the amplifier is still out
of range the voltage and consequently the duty cycle (DC) is
clamped. The DC clamp automatically limits the build up of
over-currents during abnormal conditions, including short
circuits:
If the input voltage falls below the UVLO threshold, the
FAN5235 turns itself off and stays off as long as Input
voltage is below threshold.

Thermal shutdown
If the die temperature of the FAN5235 exceeds safe limits,
the IC shuts itself off. When the over-temperature (OT)
event ends, the IC comes back to normal operation. There is
a 25°C thermal hysteresis between shutdown and start up.

MOSFET Selection
3.3V and 5V Schottky Selection
The notebook application circuit shown in Figure 1 is designed
to run with an input voltage operating range of 5.4-24V.
This wide input range helps determine the selection of the
MOSFETs for the 3.3V and 5V converters, since the high-side
MOSFET is on (Vout / Vin) of the time, and the low-side
MOSFET 1 – (Vout / Vin) of the time. The maxima and minima
are tabulated in Table 2:
The maximum current at which the converters operate in PFM
mode determines selection of a Schottky. In the application
shown in Figure 8, since the transition can occur at a current as
high as 28mV * (17.5KΩ / 10KΩ) / 35mΩ = 1.4A, the diode
(with 24V input) will be conducting 86% of the period (from
Table 2). It thus has an average current of 1.4A * 0.86 = 1.2A,
which requires a Schottky current rating >1A.

All four MOSFETs have maximum duty cycles greater than
50%. Thus, it is necessary to size all four approximately the
same.

See Table 1.
12V Component Selection
Calculation of the inductor, diode and output capacitor for the
+12V output fly-back is complex, depending on output power
and efficiency. See Applications Bulletin AB-19 for an Excel
spreadsheet calculation tool. See Table 1 also.
Input Capacitor Selection
Input capacitor selection is determined by ripple current rating.
With two converters operating in parallel at differing duty
cycles, calculation of input ripple current is complex; see
Applications Bulletin AB-19 for an Excel spreadsheet
calculation tool.
