Device description
Device description
L6728H is a single-phase PWM controller with embedded high-current drivers that provides
complete control logic and protections to realize in an easy and simple way a general DCDC step-down converter. Designed to drive N-channel MOSFETs in a synchronous buck
topology, with its high level of integration this 10-pin device allows reducing cost and size of
the power supply solution also providing real-time PGOOD in a compact DFN10 3x3 mm.
L6728H is designed to operate from a 5 V or 12 V supply. The output voltage can be
precisely regulated to as low as 0.8 V with ±0.8% accuracy over line and temperature
variations. The switching frequency is internally set to 300 kHz.
This device provides a simple control loop with a voltage-mode error-amplifier. The erroramplifier features a 15 MHz gain-bandwidth product and 8V/µs slew rate, allowing high
regulator bandwidth for fast transient response.
To avoid load damages, L6728H provides over current protection as well as over voltage,
under voltage and feedback disconnection protection. The over current trip threshold is
programmable by a simple resistor connected from Lgate to GND. Output current is
monitored across low-side MOSFET RDS(on), saving the use of expensive and spaceconsuming sense resistor. Output voltage is monitored through dedicated VSEN pin.

L6728H
Driver section
The integrated high-current drivers allow using different types of power MOSFET (also
multiple MOSFETs to reduce the equivalent RDS(on)), maintaining fast switching transition.
The driver for the high-side MOSFET uses BOOT pin for supply and PHASE pin for return.
The driver for low-side MOSFET uses the VCC pin for supply and GND pin for return.
The controller embodies an anti-shoot-through and adaptive dead-time control to minimize
low side body diode conduction time, maintaining good efficiency while saving the use of
Schottky diode:
●
to check high-side MOSFET turn off, PHASE pin is sensed. When the voltage at
PHASE pin drops down, the low-side MOSFET gate drive is suddenly applied;
●
to check low-side MOSFET turn off, LGATE pin is sensed. When the voltage at LGATE
has fallen, the high-side MOSFET gate drive is suddenly applied.
If the current flowing in the inductor is negative, voltage on PHASE pin will never drop. To
allow the low-side MOSFET to turn-on even in this case, a watchdog controller is enabled: if
the source of the high-side MOSFET doesn't drop, the low side MOSFET is switched on so
allowing the negative current of the inductor to recirculate. This mechanism allows the
system to regulate even if the current is negative.

L6728H embeds high current MOSFET drivers for both high side and low side MOSFETs: it
is then important to consider the power that the device is going to dissipate in driving them
in order to avoid overcoming the maximum junction operative temperature.
Two main terms contribute in the device power dissipation: bias power and drivers' power.

Device bias power (PDC) depends on the static consumption of the device through the

P DC = V CC ⋅ ( I CC + I BOOT )
Drivers power is the power needed by the driver to continuously switch on and off the
external MOSFETs; it is a function of the switching frequency and total gate charge of
the selected MOSFETs. It can be quantified considering that the total power PSW
dissipated to switch the MOSFETs (easy calculable) is dissipated by three main
factors: external gate resistance (when present), intrinsic MOSFET resistance and
intrinsic driver resistance. This last term is the important one to be determined to
calculate the device power dissipation. The total power dissipated to switch the
MOSFETs results:
P SW = F SW ⋅ ( Q gHS ⋅ V BOOT + Q gLS ⋅ V CC )
External gate resistors helps the device to dissipate the switching power since the same
power PSW will be shared between the internal driver impedance and the external resistor
resulting in a general cooling of the device.

Soft-start
Soft-start
L6728H implements a soft-start to smoothly charge the output filter avoiding high in-rush
currents to be required from the input power supply. The device gradually increases the
internal reference from 0 V to 0.8 V in 4.5 ms (typ.), in closed loop regulation, linearly
charging the output capacitors to the final regulation voltage.
In the event of an over current triggering during soft start, the over current logic will override
the soft start sequence and will shut down the PWM logic and both the high side and low
side gates. This condition is latched, cycle VCC to recover.
The device begins soft start phase only when VCC power supply is above UVLO threshold
and over current threshold setting phase has been completed.

Low-side-less startup (LSLess)
)
s
t(
In order to avoid any kind of negative undershoot and dangerous return from the load during
start-up, L6728H performs a special sequence in enabling LS driver to switch: during the
soft-start phase, the LS driver results disabled (LS = OFF) until the HS starts to switch. This
avoid the dangerous negative spike on the output voltage that can happen if starting over a
pre-biased output.
c
u
d
o
r
P
If the output voltage is pre-biased to a voltage higher than the final one, the HS would never
start to switch. In this case, at the end of soft start time, LS is enabled and discharge the
output to the final regulation value.

This particular feature of the device masks the LS turn-on only from the control loop point of
view: protections by-pass this turning ON the LS MOSFET in case of need.

Over current protection

L6728H
Over current protection
The over current function protects the converter from a shorted output or overload, by
sensing the output current information across the low side MOSFET drain-source onresistance, RDS(on). This method reduces cost and enhances converter efficiency by
avoiding the use of expensive and space-consuming sense resistors.
The low side RDS(on) current sense is implemented by comparing the voltage at the PHASE
node when LS MOSFET is turned on with the programmed OCP thresholds voltages,
internally held. If the monitored voltage is bigger than these thresholds, an over current
event is detected.
For maximum safety and load protection, L6728H implements a dual level over current
protection system:
●
1st level threshold: it is the user externally set threshold. If the monitored voltage on
PHASE exceeds this threshold, a 1st level over current is detected. If four 1st level OC
events are detected in four consecutive switching cycles, over current protection will be
triggered.
●
2nd level threshold: it is an internal threshold whose value is equal to 1st level
threshold multiplied by a factor 1.5. If the monitored voltage on PHASE exceeds this
threshold, over current protection will be triggered immediately.

Over current protection
Over current threshold setting
L6728H allows to easily program a 1st level over current threshold ranging from 50 mV to
550 mV, simply by adding a resistor (ROCSET) between LGATE and GND. 2nd level threshold
will be automatically set accordingly.
During a short period of time (about 5 ms) following VCC rising over UVLO threshold, an
internal 10 µA current (IOCSET) is sourced from LGATE pin, determining a voltage drop
across ROCSET. This voltage drop will be sampled and internally held by the device as 1st
level over current threshold. The OC setting procedure overall time length is about 5 ms.
Connecting a ROCSET resistor between LGATE and GND, the programmed 1st level
threshold will be:
I OCSET ⋅ R OCSET
I OCth1 = ------------------------------------------R dsON
the programmed 2nd level threshold will be:
I OCth2
I OCSET ⋅ R OCSET
= 1.5 ⋅ -------------------------------------------R dsON

Output voltage setting and protections
L6728H is capable to precisely regulate an output voltage as low as 0.8 V. In fact, the device
comes with a fixed 0.8 V internal reference that guarantee the output regulated voltage to be
within ±0.8% tolerance over line and temperature variations (excluding output resistor
divider tolerance, when present).
Output voltage higher than 0.8 V can be easily achieved by adding a resistor ROS between
FB pin and ground. Referring to Figure 1, the steady state DC output voltage will be:
R FB ⎞
V OUT = V REF ⋅ ⎛ 1 + ---------⎝
R ⎠
OS
where VREF is 0.8 V.
L6728H monitors the voltage at VSEN pin and compares it to internal reference voltage in
order to provide under voltage and over voltage protections as well as PGOOD signal.
According to the level of VSEN, different actions are performed from the controller:
●

Over voltage protection
If the voltage at VSEN pin rises over OV threshold (1 V typ), over voltage protection
turns off HS MOSFET and turns on LS MOSFET. The LS MOSFET will be turned off as
soon as VSEN goes below Vref/2 (0.4 V). The condition is latched, cycle VCC to
recover. Notice that, even if the device is latched, the device still controls the LS
MOSFET and can switch it on whenever VSEN rises above OV threshold.

Feedback disconnection protection
In order to provide load protection even if VSEN pin is not connected, a 100 nA bias
current is always sourced from this pin. If VSEN pin is not connected, this current will
permanently pull it up causing the device to detect an OV: thus LS will be latched on
preventing output voltage from rising out of control.

Compensation network
The control loop showed in Figure 5 is a voltage mode control loop. The output voltage is
regulated to the internal reference (when present, offset resistor between FB node and GND
can be neglected in control loop calculation).
Error Amplifier output is compared to oscillator saw-tooth waveform to provide PWM signal
to the driver section. PWM signal is then transferred to the switching node with VIN
amplitude. This waveform is filtered by the output filter.
The converter transfer function is the small signal transfer function between the output of the
EA and VOUT. This function has a double pole at frequency FLC depending on the L-COUT
resonance and a zero at FESR depending on the output capacitor ESR. The DC gain of the
modulator is simply the input voltage VIN divided by the peak-to-peak oscillator voltage
ΔVOSC.

High DC gain is achieved giving an integrator shape to compensation network transfer

stability, it should not exceed FSW/2π. To achieve a good phase margin, the control loop gain
has to cross 0 dB axis with -20 dB/decade slope.

The first priority when placing components for these applications has to be reserved to the
power section, minimizing the length of each connection and loop as much as possible. To
minimize noise and voltage spikes (EMI and losses) power connections (highlighted in
Figure 7) must be a part of a power plane and anyway realized by wide and thick copper
traces: loop must be anyway minimized. The critical components, i.e. the power MOSFETs,
must be close one to the other. The use of multi-layer printed circuit board is recommended.

The input capacitance (CIN), or at least a portion of the total capacitance needed, has to be
placed close to the power section in order to eliminate the stray inductance generated by the
copper traces. Low ESR and ESL capacitors are preferred, MLCC are suggested to be
connected near the HS drain.

Use proper VIAs number when power traces have to move between different planes on the
PCB in order to reduce both parasitic resistance and inductance. Moreover, reproducing the
same high-current trace on more than one PCB layer will reduce the parasitic resistance
associated to that connection.
Connect output bulk capacitors (COUT) as near as possible to the load, minimizing parasitic
inductance and resistance associated to the copper trace, also adding extra decoupling
capacitors along the way to the load when this results in being far from the bulk capacitors
bank.

Gate traces and phase trace must be sized according to the driver RMS current delivered to
the power MOSFET. The device robustness allows managing applications with the power
section far from the controller without losing performances. Anyway, when possible, it is
recommended to minimize the distance between controller and power section.
Small signal components and connections to critical nodes of the application, as well as
bypass capacitors for the device supply, are also important. Locate bypass capacitor (VCC
and Bootstrap capacitor) and feedback compensation components as close to the device as
practical. For over current programmability, place ROCSET close to the device and avoid
leakage current paths on LGATE / OC pin, since the internal current source is only 10 μA.

Systems that do not use Schottky diode in parallel to the low-side MOSFET might show big
negative spikes on the phase pin. This spike must be limited within the absolute maximum
ratings (for example, adding a gate resistor in series to HS MOSFET gate), as well as the
positive spike, but has an additional consequence: it causes the bootstrap capacitor to be
over-charged. This extra-charge can cause, in the worst case condition of maximum input
voltage and during particular transients, that boot-to-phase voltage overcomes the absolute
maximum ratings also causing device failures. It is then suggested in this cases to limit this
extra-charge by adding a small resistor in series to the bootstrap diode.

Inductor design
The inductance value is defined by a compromise between the dynamic response time, the
efficiency, the cost and the size. The inductor has to be calculated to maintain the ripple
current (ΔIL) between 20% and 30% of the maximum output current (typ). The inductance
value can be calculated with the following relationship:
V IN – V OUT V OUT
L = ------------------------------ ⋅ -------------F SW ⋅ ΔI L
V IN
Where FSW is the switching frequency, VIN is the input voltage and VOUT is the output
voltage. Figure 9 shows the ripple current vs. the output voltage for different values of the
inductor, with VIN = 5 V and VIN = 12 V.
)
s
t(
Increasing the value of the inductance reduces the current ripple but, at the same time,
increases the converter response time to a dynamic load change. The response time is the
time required by the inductor to change its current from initial to final value. Until the inductor
has not finished its charging time, the output current is supplied by the output capacitors.
Minimizing the response time can minimize the output capacitance required. If the
compensation network is well designed, during a load variation the device is able to set a
duty cycle value very different (0% or 80%) from steady state one. When this condition is
reached, the response time is limited by the time required to change the inductor current.

Output capacitor(s)
The output capacitors are basic components to define the ripple voltage across the output
and for the fast transient response of the power supply. They depend on the output voltage
ripple requirements, as well as any output voltage deviation requirement during a load
transient.
During steady-state conditions, the output voltage ripple is influenced by both the ESR and
capacitive value of the output capacitors as follow:
ΔV OUT_ESR = ΔI L ⋅ ESR
1
ΔV OUT_C = ΔI L ⋅ --------------------------------------8 ⋅ C OUT ⋅ F SW
Where ΔIL is the inductor current ripple. In particular, the expression that defines ΔVOUT_C
takes in consideration the output capacitor charge and discharge as a consequence of the
inductor current ripple.
)
s
t(
During a load variation, the output capacitors supplies the current to the load or absorb the
current stored into the inductor until the converter reacts. In fact, even if the controller
recognizes immediately the load transient and sets the duty cycle at 80% or 0%, the current
slope is limited by the inductor value. The output voltage has a drop that also in this case
depends on the ESR and capacitive charge/discharge as follow:

MLCC capacitors have typically low ESR to minimize the ripple but also have low
capacitance that do not minimize the voltage deviation during dynamic load variations. On
the contrary, electrolytic capacitors have big capacitance to minimize voltage deviation
during load transients while they does not show the same ESR values of the MLCC resulting
then in higher ripple voltages. For these reasons, a mix between electrolytic and MLCC
capacitor is suggested to minimize ripple as well as reducing voltage deviation in dynamic
mode.

Power input (Vin)
This is the input voltage for the power conversion. The High-Side drain is connected to this
input. This voltage can range from 1.5 V to 12 V bus.
If the voltage is between 4.5 V and 12 V it can supply also the device (through the Vcc pin)
and in this case the R16 (0 Ω) resistor must be present.
12.1.2
Output (Vout)
The output voltage is fixed at 1.25 V but it can be changed by replacing the resistors R8
(sense partition lower resistor) and R13 (feedback partition lower resistor). R18 allows to
adjust OCP threshold.

Using the input voltage Vin to supply the controller no power is required at this input.

Board description
13.1.1
Power input (Vin)
This is the input voltage for the power conversion. The high-side drain is connected to this
input. This voltage can range from 1.5 V to 12 V bus.
If the voltage is between 4.5 V and 12 V it can supply also the device (through the Vcc pin)
and in this case the R16 (0Ω) resistor must be present.
13.1.2
Output (Vout)
The output voltage is fixed at 1.25 V but it can be changed by replacing the resistors R8
(sense partition lower resistor) and R13 (feedback partition lower resistor). R18 allows to
adjust OCP threshold.
13.1.3
Signal input (Vcc)
)
s
t(
Using the input voltage Vin to supply the controller no power is required at this input.
However the controller can be supplied separately from the power stage through the Vcc
input (4.5-12 V) and, in this case, the R16 (0 Ω) resistor must be unsoldered.
