AME5138 n Detailed Description The AME5138 features a constant off-time control scheme. Operation can be best understood by referring to Figure 3. When the voltage at the FB pin is less than 1.23V, the Enable Comp in Figure 3 enables the device and the NMOS switch is turmed on pulling the SW pin to ground. When the NMOS switch is on, current is supplied by the output capacitor COUT. Once the current in the inductor reaches the peak current limit, the 400ns One Shot turns off the NMOS switch. The SW voltage will then rise to the output voltage plus a diode drop and the inductor current will begin to decrease as shown in Figure 3. During this time the energy stored in the inductor is transferred to COUT and the load. After the 400ns off-time the NMOS switch is turned on and energy is stored in the inductor again. This energy transfer from the inductor to the output causes a stepping effect in the output ripple. This cycle is continued until the voltage at FB reaches 1.23V. When FB reaches this voltage, the enable comparator then disables the device turning off the NMOS switch and reducing the Iq of the device to 64µA. The load current is then supplied solely by COUT indicated by the gradually decreasing slope at the output. When the FB pin drops slightly below 1.23V, the enable comparator enables the device and begins the cycle described previously. The EN pin can be used to turn off the AME5138 and reduce the Iq to 0.01µA. In shutdown mode the output voltage will be a diode drop lower than the input voltage. Micropower Step-Up DC/DC Converter n Application Information INDUCTOR SELECTION The appropriate inductor for a given application is calculated using the following equation: V − VIN(min) + VD TOFF L = OUT ICL Where V D is the schottky diode voltage, ICL is the switch current limit found in the Typical Performance Characteristics section, and TOFF is the switch off time. When using this equation be sure to use in minimum input voltage for the application, such as for battery powered applications. Choosing inductors with low ESR decrease power lossed and increase efficiency. Care should be taken when choosing an inductor. For applications that require an input voltage that approaches the output voltage, such as when converting a Li-ion battery voltage to 5V, the 400ns off time may not be enough time to discharge the energy in the inductor and transfer the energy to the output capacitor and load. This can cause a ramping effect in the inductor current waveform and an increased ripple on the output voltage. Using a smaller inductor will cause the IPK to increase and will increase the output voltage ripple further. This can be solved by adding a 4.7pF capacitor across the R1 feedback resistor (Figure 3) and slightly increasing the output capacitor. A smaller inductor can then be used to ensure proper discharge in the 400ns off time. DIODE SELECTION To maintain high efficiency, the average current rating of the schottky diode should be larger than the peak inductor current, IPK. Schottky diodes with a low forward drop and fast switching speeds are ideal for increasing efficiency in portable applications. Choose a reverse breakdown of the schottky diode larger than the output voltage. 7 AME, Inc. AME5138 CAPACITOR SELECTION Choose low ESR capacitors for the output to minimize output voltage ripple. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are the best choice. For most applications, a 1µF ceramic capacitor is sufficient. For some applications a reduction in output voltage ripple can be achieved by increasing the output capacitor. Local bypassing for the input is needed on the AME5138. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are a good choice for this as well. A 4.7µF capacitor is sufficient for most applications. For additional bypassing, a 100nF ceramic capacitor can be used to shunt high frequency ripple on the input. LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS The input bypass capacitor CIN, as shown in Figure 3, must be placed close to the IC. This will reduce copper trace resistance which effects input voltage ripple of the IC. For additional input voltage filtering, a 100nF bypass capacitor can be placed in parallel with CIN to shunt any high frequency noise to ground. The output capacitor, COUT, should also be placed close to the IC. Any copper trace connections for the COUT capacitor can increase the series resistance, which directly effects output voltage ripple. The feedback network, resistors R1 and R2, should be kept close to the FB pin to minimize copper trace connections that can inject noise into the system. The ground connection for the feedback resistor network should connect directly to an analog ground plane. The analog ground plane should tie directly to the GND pin. If no analog ground plane is available, the ground connection for the feedback network should tie directly to the GND pin. Trace connections made to the inductor and schottky diode should be minimized to reduce power dissipation and increase overall efficiency. 8 Micropower Step-Up DC/DC Converter AME, Inc.
