ET4040QI Power Train The ET4040QI is a monolithic 40A driver stage that integrates P-Channel high side power MOSFET, N-Channel low side power MOSFET and an optimized high speed gate driver. The device also includes die temperature monitoring, current sensing, and high side MOSFET short circuit detection circuitry. The ET4040QI also has a pin-selectable diode The ET4040QI utilizes Enpirion’s advanced high frequency LDMOS process to enable high switching frequency and high efficiency. The ET4040QI has industry leading figure of merit (FOM) providing for very low switching loss hence enabling high switching frequency for small external inductor and capacitors. www.altera.com/enpirion, Page 9 09588 March 19, 2014 Rev A ET4040QI Table 1. PWM Logic state table. Configured properly, the ET4040QI does not require any bulk electrolytic or POSCAPs. Only low cost Ceramic MLCC capacitors are required. PWM Low High Float ET4040QIQI Power Train Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) pin is a Tri-state input signal. Floating or “tri-stating” this pin will turn off both high side and low side MOSFETs. When PWM is placed in tri-state mode, the PWM signal is internally pulled to 1.6V. This simplifies the tri-state operation and prevents indeterminate states from occurring. High Side MOSFET OFF ON OFF Low Side MOSFET ON OFF OFF Shoot Through Protection The ET4040QIQI employs an advanced shoot through protection scheme. Feedback is used from each gate to ensure that both MOSFETs are never on simultaneously.

PWM, LSG (Low Side Gate) and HSG (High Side Gate) timing. Note: HSG is active low, LSG is active high. ISEN Current Sense Output The current monitoring function provides a voltage based replica of the dynamic inductor current waveform, including both static output current and dynamic ripple current contributions. The nominal replication bandwidth is 3.6 MHz – given the nominal output resistance of 5kΩ, parasitic loading on this pin should be minimized. The voltage on ISEN is the sum of the current monitoring output voltage and the REFIN pin, allowing ISEN to be summed with REFIN. The ISEN control and sensing circuits are internally temperature compensated, allowing the ISEN indication to correctly track output current even as internal junction temperature changes due to self-heating and due to changes in ambient temperature. TSEN Temperature Monitor The ET4040QI provides a thermal monitor that indicates the internal junction temperature of the device with a conversion factor of ~8 mV/C – this indication occurs on the TSEN pin. Additional specifications relative to TSEN are provided in the corresponding Electrical Characteristics section. The TSEN pin of multiple devices/phases can be wired-ORed together, allowing the hottest phase with the highest temperature to control the temperature indication. The maximum number of phases that can be ORed together is seven. www.altera.com/enpirion, Page 10 09588 March 19, 2014 Rev A ET4040QI Application Information Under Voltage Lock Out The gate driver supply rail, VCC_GD, is monitored to ensure a valid supply voltage is present that allows the gate driver control and driver circuitry to properly function. If the VCC_GD supply drops below UVLO_FALL or fails to rise above UVLO_RISE, the UVLO monitor counts 3 PWM pulses or a nominal maximum persistence of 15 uSec, at which point switching is disabled at the next immediate ON cycle. When the UVLO condition clears, the driver allows switching to continue. An UVLO event is NOT and indicated fault and therefore does not toggle the TSEN/FAULT pin or latch into the FAULT latch Diode Emulation Mode The ET4040QI diode emulation mode enables increased light load efficiency by preventing negative inductor current from flowing through the low-side (synchronous) MOSFET. Diode emulation mode is controlled with the active low OFF# signal. When the OFF# pin is asserted low, the low side MOSFET will be turned off. The high side MOSFET will be continue to follow the PWM signal commands. www.altera.com/enpirion, Page 11 09588 March 19, 2014 Rev A ET4040QI Thermal Considerations Thermal considerations are important power supply design facts that cannot be avoided in the real world. Whenever there are power losses in a system, the heat that is generated by the power dissipation needs to be accounted for. The Altera Enpirion PowerSoC helps alleviate some of those concerns. The Altera Enpirion ET4040QI Power Train is packaged in an 5.5x7.5mm 46-pin QFN package. The exposed ground pad on the package should be soldered directly on to a copper ground pad on the printed circuit board (PCB) to act as a heat sink. The recommended maximum junction temperature for continuous operation is 125°C. Continuous operation above 125°C may reduce long-term reliability. The ET4040QI is guaranteed to support the full 40A output current up to 85°C ambient temperature. The following example and calculations illustrate the thermal performance of the ET4040QI. PIN ≈ 40W / 0.869 ≈ 46W The power dissipation (PD) is the power loss in the system and can be calculated by subtracting the output power from the input power. PD = PIN – POUT ≈ 46W – 40W ≈ 6.0W With the power dissipation known, the temperature rise in the device may be estimated based on the theta JPCB value (θJPCB). The θJPCB parameter estimates how much the temperature will rise in the device for every watt of power dissipation. The ET4040QI Evaluation Board has a θJPCB value of 6 ºC/W without airflow and heatsink (the PCB board temperature is measured 3cm from the device). Determine the change in temperature (ΔT) based on PD and θJPCB. ΔT = PD x θJPCB ΔT ≈ 6.0W x 6°C/W = 36°C The junction temperature (TJ) of the device is approximately the PCB board temperature (TB) plus the change in temperature. Example: VIN = 12V VOUT = 1.0V The maximum operating junction temperature (TJMAX) of the device is 125°C, so the maximum board temperature (TBMAX) allowed can be calculated. IOUT = 40A First calculate the output power. POUT = 1.0V x 40A = 40W Next, determine the input power based on the efficiency (η) shown in Figure 11. TBMAX = TJMAX – PD x θJPCB ≈ 125°C – 36°C ≈ 89°C The maximum board temperature the device can reach is 89°C given the input and output voltage at no airflow and no heatsink conditions. Note that larger size PCB board, heatsink and airflow will greatly improve the thermal performance. Figure 11: Efficiency vs. Output Current For VIN = 12V, VOUT = 1.0V at 40A, η ≈ 86.9% η = POUT / PIN = 86.9% = 0.869 PIN = POUT / η www.altera.com/enpirion, Page 12 09588 March 19, 2014 Rev A ET4040QI Engineering Schematic +1.8V VIN (+4.5V – 14.5V) +3.3V 10uF 10uF VCC_GD 1.0uF NC AGND PWM OFF# ISEN REFIN VCC1 VCC TSEN TMON BGND BGND VCC2 NC VCC PHASE BOOT 39 38 40 41 NC PGND 42 36 3 35 34 49 SW 48 PGND 47 VIN 5 33 6 32 7 31 8 30 9 29 SW 10 28 11 27 12 26 13 25 14 24 NC PGND VCC_GD VIN 1.0uF VOUT 23 22 20 21 19 18 17 16 VIN 0.1uF 37 2 15 0.1uF 1 4 ISEN 43 46 44 VIN VCC 1.0uF PGND AGND 10uF 10uF VIN (+4.5V – 14.5V) +1.8V Figure12.
