■HOW TO SET THE TIME CONSTANT FOR SOFT START AND SHORT CIRCUIT DETECTION
1. Soft Start
A soft start function, which gradually increases the width of the output pulses at power on, will be applied if a
capacitor is connected to the SCP pin. This can prevent rush currents and overshoot when the power supply is
turned on.
At power on, the capacitor CPE connected to the SCP pin starts charging. The PWM comparator compares the
soft start setting voltage as a proportion of the voltage at the SCP pin with the sawtooth waveform. The
comparison controls the ON duty of the OUT pin, causing the soft start operation. On completion of soft start
operation, the voltage at the SCP pin stays low, the soft start setting voltage stays high, and the circuit enters the
output short circuit detection wait state.
Soft start time (The time until the output ON duty reaches approximately 50%)
tS [s] = 0.35 × CPE [µF]
2. Timer Latch Short Circuit Protection
When the load conditions suddenly change due to load effect, the short-circuit protection comparator outputs the
+
high-level signal (VOM ) and the capacitor CPE connected to the SCP terminal starts charging. When the external
capacitor CPE has been charged to approximately 0.8V, the latch circuit is set, the output terminal is fixed to low
level, and the dead-time is set to 100%. However, the latch circuit is not reset unless the power for the latch
circuit is turned off or restarted by the on/off control.
• Short circuit detection time
tPE [s] = 0.8 × CPE [µF]
■FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
1. Switching Regulator Function
(1) Reference voltage circuit
This circuit is composed of a band gap circuit, and outputs a 1.25-volt temperature compensated reference
voltage. This reference voltage is stabilized when the supply voltage is 1.8 V or higher. In addition to providing
the reference voltage for the switching regulator, the circuit also sets the idle period.
(2) Sawtooth wave oscillator
This circuit generates a triangular wave like sawtooth with a peak of 0.8V (VOSCH) and a trough of 0.1V (VOSCL)
using a capacitor (for the time constant) and resistor connected to the OSC pin (pin 7). The oscillator frequency
can be set to any value by selecting appropriate values for the external capacitor and resistor, CT and RT. This
oscillator can provide a frequency in the range 10 kHz to 1 MHz.

(3) Error amplifier
This error amplifier detects and amplifies the DC-DC converter output voltage, and inputs that signal to a PWM
comparator. The 0.5 V internal reference voltage is applied to the non-inverting input. Arbitrary gain and phase
compensation can be connected by inserting a resistor and capacitor in series between the error amplifier output
pin (pin 8) and the inverting input pin (pin 1).

(4) PWM comparator
The voltage comparator has one inverting and three non-inverting inputs. The comparator is a voltage/pulse
width converter that controls the on-period of the output pulse according to its input voltage. The output
transistors are turned on during periods when the OSC pin (pin 7) triangular waveform is lower than the error
amplifier output voltage, soft start setting voltage, and idle period setting voltage.
(5) Output driver
The output circuit has a totem pole structure. A constant-current source output with line regulation can be set up
at an arbitrary voltage by connecting a current setting resistor to the BR/CTL pin (pin 4).
2. Power Supply On/Off Function
Stand-by mode (supply current 1 µA or less) can be set by connecting the BR/CTL pin (pin 4) to VCC or by
making the pin open circuit.

3. Other Functions
(1) Soft start and short circuit detection
Soft start operation can be set by connecting capacitor CPE to the SCP pin (pin 2). Soft start prevents current
spike and overshoot.
When the soft start operation completes, the AA18380 enters the normal mode and enable short circuit detection
function. When the output voltage drops, the error amplifier output is fixed at VOM+ and capacitor CPE starts
charging. When it charges to above 0.8V, the output pin (pin 5) is set low and the SCP pin (pin 2) stays low.
Once the protection circuit operates, the output latch circuit will not reset until power is restarted. (See “■ HOW
TO SET THE TIME CONSTANT FOR SOFT START AND SHORT CIRCUIT DETECTION”.)
(2) Circuit to prevent malfunction at low input voltage
This circuit protects the system against degradation or destruction due to incorrect control operation when the
power supply voltage falls during power on or power off.
The low input voltage malfunction prevention circuit detects the internal reference voltage that changes with the
supply voltage level. While the supply voltage is rising, On detection, the circuit fixes the output pin to low. The
system recovers when the supply voltage rises back above the threshold voltage of the malfunction prevention
circuit.

■PC Board Layout Guideline
PCB layout is very important for DC-DC operation. Please follow the notes and sample layout below.
• Create a power ground island consisting of the input and output capacitor grounds and GND pins.
Connect all of these together with short, wide traces or a small ground plane and isolate the IC
ground from the power system.
• Make the lines in the high-current loop as wide as possible and placing the inductor, rectifier diode,
and output capacitors near the input capacitors and near the OUT and GND pins.
• Position the input filter capacitor C3 as close as possible to the VCC and ground pins, and assure
that there are no other paths for switching noise to enter the IC.
• Keep the length of the line between the OUT pin and the switching device (MOSFET or other
transistor) as short as possible to provide a clean switching pulse to the switching device.
• The inductor and rectifier diode need to be close with OUT pin.
• Place the feedback resistor – R2 as close to the IN1- pin as possible. The divider’s center trace
should be kept short. Placing the resistors far away causes picking up switching noise. Avoid running
the feedback trace near OUT pin.
• Minimize the length and maximize the width of the traces between the output capacitors and the load
for best transient responses. (Please refer to boost type application circuit for this PCB layout sample.)

• Application circuit diagrams and circuit constants contained herein are shown as examples of standard use
and operation. Please pay careful attention to the peripheral conditions when designing circuits and deciding
upon circuit constants in the set.
• Take account of common impedance when designing the earth line on a printed wiring board.
