FA7703/7704
9. Description of each circuit
(1)Reference Voltage Circuit
The reference voltage circuit of FA7703/04
generates the reference voltage (VREF) of
1.00V±1% compensated in temperature from
VCC voltage, and the regulated voltage (VREG)
of 2.2V ±2% for internal controlling. These
voltages start to output when the undervoltage
lockout protection (UVLO) is cancelled, and
they stabilize after the supply voltage (VCC)
reaches up to approx. 2.4V or higher. The
reference voltage (VREF) is connected to the
non-inverting input of Error Amplifier 1 and
serves as the reference voltage of Error
Amplifier 1. Because of Error Amplifiers have
offset voltage then, the precision of voltage in
practical use is 1.00V±2%. The voltage (VREF)
outputs externally from REF terminal, therefore,
it can serve as a stabilized power source. When
using it, be sure to set the output current 1mA
or below.
The regulated voltage (VREG) for internal
controlling serves as the stabilized power
source for maximum output duty setting or the
like. Be sure to set the output current 2mA or
below in operation in this case. This voltage
also serves as the control power source of all
the internal circuits of FA7703/04. A capacitor
for stabilization (CREG) is needed to be
connected to the VREG terminal. See
recommended
operating
conditions
to
determine capacitance.
(2)Oscillator
The oscillator of FA7703/04 generates
triangular
waveforms
by
charging
and
discharging the built-in capacitor. Any desired
oscillation frequency can be obtained by setting
the value of the resistor connected to RT
terminal (Fig. 1).
The voltage oscillates between approximately
0.65V and 1.10V in charging and discharging
with almost the same gradients (Fig. 2). Your
desired oscillation frequency can be determined
by changing the gradient using the resistor (RT)
connected to RT terminal. (Large RT: Low
frequency, small RT: High frequency) The
waveforms of oscillator cannot be observed from
the outside because a terminal for this purpose
is not provided.
Approximately DC 1V is output to RT terminal.
The oscillator output is connected to PWM
comparator.

(3)Error Amplifier Circuit
Error Amplifier 1 of FA7703/04 has the inverting
input IN1(-) terminal (Pin13). The non-Inverting
input is internally connected to the reference
voltage (VB) of 1.00V±2% at 25°C. Because
error Amplifier 2 of FA7703/04 has the inverting
input IN2(-) terminal (Pin5) and non-inverted
input IN2(+) terminal (Pin4) outputting externally,
various circuit can be designed by kinds of
external circuit structures. FB terminals (Pin6,
Pin12) are the outputs of Error Amplifiers.
Voltage Gain and phase compensation can be
set by connecting a capacitor (C) and a resistor
(R) between FB terminal and IN(-) terminal.(Fig.
3) For more information about the connection for
each output voltage of power supply, refer to

(4)PWM comparator
PWM comparator of FA7703/04 has 4 input
terminals. (Fig. 4) The oscillator output 2 is
compared with the CS terminal voltage 1, the
DT terminal voltage 3, and the Error Amplifier
output 4. Among those 3 inputs of 1, 3, and
4, the one with the lowest voltage is chosen and
given priority. While the value of the chosen
voltage is lower than the value of the waveform
of oscillator output, PWM comparator output is
set to LOW. Similarly, while the value of the
chosen voltage is higher than the waveform of
oscillator output, PWM comparator output is set
to HIGH. (Fig. 5)
When FA7703/04 are turning ON, the soft start
function starts according to the CS terminal
voltage 1, then the output pulses begin to widen
gradually. The maximum pulse width is adjusted
by changing the DT terminal voltage. In steady
operation, the pulse width is determined with the
condition of the Error Amplifier output 4, and
then the output voltage of DC-DC converter is
stabilized. The operation flow chart of PWM
comparator and OUT terminal is shown in Fig. 5.
The output polarity of OUT1 terminal changes
according to the condition of SEL1 terminal. The
polarity of OUT 2 terminal is different between
FA7703 and FA7704; accordingly, select the type
for your desired circuit design.

(5)Soft start function
As described in Fig. 6, a capacitor C CS is
connected to CS terminal. When the power
supply of FA7703/04 starts and the undervoltage
lockout protection circuit (UVLO) is cancelled,
the capacitor C CS is charged by the internal
current source (2.2μA. typ.), and the voltage of
CS terminal rises gradually. Since the voltage of
CS terminal is connected to PWM comparator,
the output pulses begin to widen gradually, and
then the soft start function starts as a result. (Fig.

(6)Timer latch short-circuit protection circuit
The short-circuit protection circuit of FA7703/04
consists of two comparators. (S.C. DET
comparator, S.C.P comparator)
In steady
operation, the output of Error Amplifier is
approximately 1V, accordingly, the output of
S.C.DET comparator is set to High, and the
voltage of CS terminal is clamped at 1.27V. If the
output voltage drops due to a short-circuit or the
like, the output voltage of Error Amplifiers rises.
When the output voltage of Error Amplifiers
exceeds 1.5V(typ.), the output of S.C.DET
comparator is set to Low, and the clamp action
at the CS terminal voltage of 1.27V is cancelled,
then the voltage of CS terminal rises up to the
VREG voltage. When the voltage of CS terminal
exceeds 2.0V(typ.), the output of S.C.P
comparator is set to High, accordingly, the
output of FA7703/04 is shut off. In this case,
FA7703/04 operate in OFF latch mode and the
current consumption in this mode is 1.3mA(typ.).
The operating waveform of the voltage of CS
terminal is shown in Fig. 7.
The approximate time (tp) between the

where, C CS: Capacitance of CS terminal [μF]

You can reset the timer latch action for the

voltage of either VCC terminal or CS terminal to
the following values.

DO NOT leave SEL1 terminal open in operation,
and be sure to connect it to either GND terminal
or REG terminal.
(8)Power good signal/Undervoltage lockout
protection circuit (UVLO)
To protect FA7703/04 from malfunction when
the supply voltage drops, there is built-in
undervoltage lockout as a protection circuit.
When the supply voltage rises from 0V, the
UVLO circuit is canceled at VCC of 2.0V(typ.).
When the supply voltage drops, the UVLO circuit
shuts off the output at VCC of 1.85V(typ.). In this
case, CS terminal is reset to Low level.
Power good signal circuit monitors the voltage
of REG terminal, and it stops the output of
FA7703/04 until the voltage of REG terminal
exceeds approximately 1.9V in order to protect
the ICs from malfunction.

(7)Output circuit
FA7703/04 contain a push-pull output stage and
can directly drive MOSFETs. The peak current of
OUT terminal is the maximum sink current of
+150mA, and the source current of -400mA.
FA7703/04 can also drive both NPN and PNP
type transistors. And in such cases, the
maximum continuous current is ±50mA. When
designing the value of output current, be sure to
consider the allowable loss accordingly. (See
Design advice)
Ch1 of FA7703/04 is available for driving both
types of MOSFETs and you can determine the
type of MOSFET, which is connected externally
by selecting the connection of SEL1 terminal
(Pin11). If SEL terminal is connected to GND
terminal, FA7703/04 can drive a Pch MOSFET. If
SEL terminal is connected to REG terminal, they
can drive Nch MOSFET.
You can accordingly design a buck converter
circuit by Pch MOSFET driving, and a boost
circuit or a fly-back converter circuit by Nch
MOSFET driving.

10. Design advice
(1)Setting oscillation frequency
As described in “(2) Oscillator” of “Description
of each circuit”, any desired oscillation frequency
can be obtained by setting the value of the
resistor connected to RT terminal. (Fig. 1) The
desired oscillation frequency should be set
between 50kHz and 1MHz. The oscillation
frequency to RT can be obtained from the chart
of “Oscillation frequency vs. timing resistor”
characteristic curves or by calculating with the
formulas below.
fosc = 3 ×10 3 × RT -0.907
1.1
⎛ 3 × 10 3 ⎞
⎟⎟
RT = ⎜⎜
⎝ fosc ⎠
where, fosc: Oscillation frequency [kHz]
R T: Timing resistor [kΩ]
These formulas can only be used for rough
calculation; accordingly, be careful when
designing, because the value obtained is not
guaranteed. The operation frequency varies due
to the conditions of the tolerance of IC influence
for noises, or external discrete components etc.
When determining the values, be sure to verify
the effectiveness of the values you calculated in
an actual circuit operation.
Because it is easily affected by noises by the
high impedance, the resistor R T should be
connected as shortly as possible near RT
terminal and GND terminal,
(2)Operation around the maximum or the
minimum output duty cycle
As described in the charts of “FB terminal
voltage vs. output duty cycle”, “DT terminal
voltage vs. output duty cycle”, “CS terminal
voltage vs. output duty cycle” characteristic
curves, the output duty of FA7703/04 changes
sharply around the minimum and the maximum
output duty. This phenomenon occurs more
conspicuously when operating in a high
frequency (i.e. when the pulse width is narrow).
Cautious care must be taken when using high
frequency.
(3)Determining soft start period
The time from the start of charging CS terminal
to n% output duty cycle can be roughly
calculated by the following expression.
ts[ s ] =
VCSn × CCS
ICS
where, VCSn: CS terminal voltage in the output
duty of n% [V]
C CS: Capacitance of capacitor of CS terminal
[μF]
ICS: Output source current of CS terminal [μA]
2.2μΑ (typ.)
VCSn represents the voltage of CS terminal in
the output duty of n%, and it changes according
to the operation frequency. The value is obtained
simply from the chart of “CS terminal voltage vs.
output duty cycle” characteristic curves.
Since the output source current of CS terminal
is 2.2μΑ, which it is rather small, if the capacitor
has leak current, then the period of soft start (ts)
is easily affected. Therefore, cautious care must
be taken when determining the value.
Charging of CS terminal begins after UVLO is
cancelled. Note that the time from power-on of
Power supply to start of charging Ccs is t0 which
is not zero as described in Fig. 8. be careful.
To reset the soft start function, the voltage of
CS terminal is discharged with FA7703/04’s
internal switch triggered by lowering the voltage
of Power supply below the voltage of UVLO
(1.85V, typ.). If Power supply restarts before the
voltage is sufficiently discharged, the soft start
function might not properly operate. accordingly,
cautious care must be taken about it.

(4)Setting the maximum output duty
If you need to control the maximum output duty
in the DC-DC converter circuit, you can control
pulse width by connecting REG terminal to DT
terminal divided with resistors R5 and R6, as
described in Fig. 9. The output duty of the
voltage of DT terminal in this case changes
according to the operation frequency, as
described in the chart of “DT terminal voltage vs.
output duty cycle” characteristic curves. Set the
output duty accordingly based on your required
operation frequency. If the maximum output duty
setting is not needed, be sure to connect DT
terminal directly to REG terminal. In this case,
the pulse width widens up to the output duty of
100%.
The voltage of DT terminal should be set in the
range of 0.65V to 1.1V(typ.). There is a
possibility of distortion of the output pulses if
strong noises or the like are applied to DT
terminal. When conducting pattern wiring, do it
as close to each terminal of the IC as possible.
Besides, it is strongly recommended to connect
a capacitor C DT for a filter of noise prevention.

(6)Restriction
of
external
discrete
components/Recommended
operating
conditions
To achieve a stable operation of FA7703/04, the
values of external discrete components
connected to VCC, REF, and CS terminals of
this IC should be within the range of
recommended operating conditions. And also the
voltage and the current applied to each terminal
should be within the recommended operating
conditions.
A Pch MOSFET is installed between VCC
terminal and OUT1 terminal, and between VCC
terminal and OUT2 terminal. Since the Pch
MOSFET has a parasitic diode, if the voltage of
OUT1 and OUT2 terminals becomes higher than
the VCC terminal voltage, the current flows from
each terminal to VCC terminal. Cautious care
must be taken accordingly when designing.

accordingly not stationary below the UVLO
voltage. On the other hand, OUT terminal
becomes unsteady condition while Power supply
voltage is below UVLO voltage. Be sure to

(7)Loss Calculation
Since it is difficult to measure IC loss directly,
the calculation to obtain the approximate loss of
the IC connected directly to a MOSFET is
described below.
When the supply voltage is VCC, the current
consumption of the IC is ICC1, the total input
gate charge of the driven MOSFET is Qg and the
switching frequency is fsw, the total loss Pd of
the IC can be calculated by:
Pd ≈ VCC ×(ICC1+Qg×fsw).
The value in this expression is influenced by
the effects of the dependency of supply voltage,
the characteristics of temperature, or the
tolerance of parameter. Therefore, evaluate the
appropriateness
of
IC
loss
sufficiently
considering the range of values of above
parameters under all conditions.
Example)
ICC1=1.8mA for VCC=6.0V in the case of a
typical IC from the characteristics curve.
Qg=6nC, fsw=190kHz, the IC loss ”Pd” is as
follows.
Pd ≈ 6.0× (1.6mA+6nC×190kHz) ≈17.6mW
if two MOSFETs are driven under the same
condition for 2 channels, Pd is as follows:
OUT terminal within 50mA(continuous) in
operation. If you want to speed up the switching
speed, it is quite effective to install a capacitor
C B in addition.

(10)ON/OFF control
FA7703/04 can be turned ON/OFF at CS
terminal by external signal. The way to conduct
ON/OFF control is also shown in Fig. 12. When
the voltage of CS terminal is below the threshold
voltage, the duty becomes 0% and the output
turns OFF. The current consumption in this case
is 1.3mA(typ.). To switch the ICs ON, just turning
CS terminal open, then the soft start function
restarts, and the output turns back ON. ON/OFF
control at CS terminal is used for both channel,
and the control of each channel is not allowed.

(8)Performance of output stage
The performance of the output stage of
FA7703/04 is the maximum sink current of
150mA and the maximum source current of
400mA. The switching element externally
attached to FA7703/04 might affect switching
speed of the ICs. Cautious care must be taken
about it especially in high frequency operation. If
the performance of the ICs is not sufficient for
your design, consider adding a buffer circuit to
improve the performance.

(9)In the case of bipolar driving
If using a bipolar transistor as the switching
element, there is a possibility of the damage
from burnout due to excessive current flow
because the ICs doesn’t contain an internal
limiter resistance. Therefore, be sure to install a
base resistor. (Fig. 11) In the case of driving a
bipolar transistor, control the output current of

(12)To protect FA7703/04 from application of
negative voltage
If rather large negative voltage is applied to any
terminal of FA7703/04, then internal parasitic
elements start operating, and they may cause
malfunctions. Accordingly, the negative voltage,
which is applied to each terminal of the ICs,
must be kept above -0.3V.
In the case of OUT terminal, in particular, the
oscillation of voltage occurring after MOSFET’s
turning off can be applied to OUT terminal
through MOSFET’s parasitic capacitance. As a
result, there is a possibility that the negative
voltage is applied to OUT terminal. If this
negative voltage reaches -0.3V or below,
connect an Schottky barrier diode between OUT
terminal and GND terminal as shown in Fig. 14.
The Schottky barrier diode’s forward direction
voltage clamps the voltage applied to OUT
terminal. In this case, use the Schottky barrier
diode with low voltage drop in forward direction.
Other terminals should be kept above -0.3 V
also based on the same reasons.

(13)Forbidden use of external forcible
latched operation for CS terminal
If the external voltage of 2.0V or more is
forcibly applied to CS terminal in normal
operation (clamped at 1.2V), the IC may be
seriously damaged because the clamp circuit is
not equipped with any resistor for limiter.
Therefore, DO NOT apply external high voltage
to CS terminal.
