SC2544
High Performance Wide Input Range
Dual Synchronous Buck Controller
POWER MANAGEMENT
Description
Features
The SC2544 is a high performance dual PWM controller.
It is designed to convert a wide ranged input voltage down
to two independent output rails. The PWM operations of
the two channels are 180 degree out of phase which
can greatly reduce the size and the cost of the input
capacitors. Synchronous Buck PWM topology and voltage mode control allow high efficiency operation, fast
transient responses, and flexible component selection
for easy designs. A 10V internal linear regulator provides the bias for the controller, and this voltage is optimized for gate drivers to deliver high efficiency. The power
sequencing is fully supported including independent start
up, and power good output. In the shut down mode the
controller only draws 100nA from the supply. The controller also offers full protection features for the conditions of under voltage, over voltage, and the over current. There is no need for a current sensing resistor
because the MOSFET on resistance is used for the sensing element. The switching frequency is adjustable from
100 kHz to 300 kHz. Two packages TSSOP-24 and MLPQ24 are offered.

Applications Information
Soft Start
Overview
The SC2544 is a constant frequency 2-phase voltage
mode step-down PWM switching controller driving all
N-channel MOSFETs. The two channels of the controller
operate at 180 degree out of phase from each other.
Since input currents are interleaved in a two-phase
converter, input ripple current is lower and smaller
input capacitance can be used for filtering. Also, with
lower inductor current and smaller inductor ripple
current per phase, overall I2 R losses are reduced.
During start-up, the reference voltage of the error
amplifier equals 30% of the voltage on Css (softstart capacitor) which is connected between the SS
pin and ground. When the controller is enabled (by
pulling EN pin high), one internal 84uA current
source, I SS, (soft start current) will charge the softstart capacitor gradually. The PWM output starts
pulsing when the soft start voltage reaches 1V.
This soft start scheme will ensure the duty cycle to
increase slowly, therefore limiting the charging
current into the output capacitor and also ensuring
the inductor does not saturate. The soft start
capacitor will eventually be charged up to 2.5V.
Frequency Setting
The frequency of the SC2544 is userprogrammable.The oscillator of SC2544 can be programmed with an external resistor from the Rosc
pin to the ground. The step-down controller is capable of operating up to 300KHz. The relationship
between oscillation frequency versus oscillation resistor is shown in Figure 1.
The advantages of using constant frequency
operation are simple passive component selection and
ease of feedback compensation. Before setting the
operating frequency, the following trade-offs should
be considered.
1) Passive component size
2) Circuitry efficiency
3) EMI condition
4) Minimum switch on time
5) Maximum duty ratio
For a given output power, the sizes of the passive
components are inversely proportional to the switching
frequency, whereas MOSFETs/Diodes switching losses
are proportional to the operating frequency. Other
issues such as heat dissipation, packaging and cost
issues are also to be considered. The frequency bands
for signal transmission should be avoided because of
EM interference.
The soft-start sequence is initiated when EN pin is
high and Vcc >4.5V or during recovery from a fault
condition ( OCP, OVP, or UVLO).
The period of start up can be programed by the
soft start capacitor:
Tss =
Shutdown
When the EN pin is pulled low, an internal 15uA
current source discharges the soft-start capacitor
and DRVH/DRVL signals stop pulsing. The output
voltage ramps down at a rate determined by the
load condition.
The SC2544 can also be shutdown by pulling down
directly on the SS pin. The designer needs to
consider the slope of the SS pin voltage and choose
a suitable pull down resistor to prevent the output
from undershooting.

Shutdown can also be triggered when an OCP condition occurs. When an OCP condition is detected,
DRVH and DRVL will stop pulsing and enter a “tristate shutdown” with the output voltage ramping
down at a rate determined by the load condition.
The internal 15uA current source will begin discharging the soft-start capacitor and when the
soft-start voltage reaches 0.65V, DRVL will go high.

Applications Information (Cont.)
Over Current Protection (OCP)
The inductor current is sensed by using the low side
MOSFET Rds(on) . After low side MOSFET is turned
on, the OCP comparator starts monitoring the
voltage drop across the MOSFET. The OCP trip
level is programmed by the resistor from the ILIM
pin to the phase node. There is an internal current
source that flows out of the ILIM pin which will
generate a voltage drop on the setting resistor.
When the sum of the setting resistor voltage and
the MOSFET drain to source voltage is less then
zero, the OCP condition will be flagged. This
functionality is depicted in Figure 2.
The following formula is used to set the OCP level

The UVLO circuitry monitors Vcc and the soft start
begins once Vcc ramps up above 4.5V. There is a
built in 200mV hysteresis for the UVLO ramp down
threshold. The gate driver output will be in “tristate” (both high side and low side MOSFET off)
once Vcc ramps down bellow 4.2V (typical), and the
soft start cap will be discharged by internal 15uA
current sink.
When OCP is tripped, both high side and low side
MOSFETs will be turned off and this condition is
latched. At the same time, the soft start cap will
be discharged by the internal current source of
15uA. When the Vss drops bellow 0.65V, the DRVL
pin will go high again.

To avoid switching noise during the phase node
commutation, a 100nS blanking time is built in
after the low side MOSFET is turned on, as shown in
Fig. 3.
The OVP circuitry monitors the feedback voltages,
If either feedback voltage exceeds 0.89V, the OVP
condition is registered. Under this condition, the
DRVH pins will be pulled low, and the DRVL pins will
be pulled high. This will create a “crow bar” condition for the input power rail in case the high side
MOSFET is failed short. The crow bar operation
may trip the input supply to prevent the load from
seeing more voltage.

should be chosen such that the pin does not sink
more than 2mA when PWRGD is low.

The followings are to be considered when choosing
inductors.
a) Inductor core material: For higher efficiency
applications above 300 KHz, ferrite, Kool-Mu and
polypermalloy materials should be used. Low-cost
powdered iron cores can be used for cost sensitiveapplications below 300 KHz but with attendant higher
core losses.
b) Select inductance value: Sometimes the calculated
inductance value is not available off-the-shelf. The
designer can choose the adjacent (larger) standard
inductance value. The inductance varies with
temperature and DC current. It is a good engineering
practice to re-evaluate the resultant current ripple
at the rated DC output current.
c) Current rating: The saturation current of the
inductor should be at least 1.5 times of the peak
inductor current under all conditions.
Selection criterias and design procedures for the following parameters are described:
1) Output inductor (L) type and value
2) Output capacitor (C o) type and value
3) Input capacitor (C in) type and value
4) Power MOSFETs
5) Current sensing and limiting circuit
6) Voltage sensing circuit
7) Loop compensation network
The following step-down converter specifications are
needed:

Inductor (L) and Ripple Current
The output capacitor provides output current filtering
in steady state and serves as a reservoir during load
transient. The output capacitor can be modeled as
an ideal capacitor in series with its parasitic ESR and
ESL as shown in Figure 4.
Both step-down controllers in the SC2544 operate in
synchronous continuous-conduction mode (CCM)
regardless of the output load level. The output
inductor selection/design is based on the output DC
and transient requirements. Both output current and
voltage ripples are reduced with larger inductance
but it takes longer to change the inductor current
during load transients. Conversely smaller inductance
results in lower DC copper losses but the AC core
losses (flux swing) and the winding AC resistance losses
are higher. A compromise is to choose the inductance
such that peak-to-peak inductor ripple-current is 20%
to 30% of the rated output load current.
Assuming that the inductor current ripple (peak-topeak) value is δ *Io, the inductance value will then
be

The first term is the DC voltage across C o at time
t=0. The second term is the voltage variation caused
by the charge balance between the load and the
converter output. The third term is voltage ripple
due to ESL and the fourth term is the voltage ripple
due to ESR. The total output voltage ripple is then a
vector sum of the last three terms.
G,R
Usually it is necessary to have several capacitors of
the same type in parallel to satisfy the ESR
requirement. The voltage ripple caused by the
capacitor charge/discharge should be an order of
magnitude smaller than the voltage ripple caused by
the ESR. To guarantee this, the capacitance should
satisfy

may not carry most of the ripple current. It also
depends on the capacitor value. Only when the
capacitor value is set properly, the effect of ceramic
capacitor low ESR starts to be significant. For
example, if a 10 P F, 4m : ceramic capacitor is
connected in parallel with 2x1500 P F, 90m :
electrolytic capacitors, the ripple current in the
ceramic capacitor is only about 42% of the current in
the electrolytic capacitors at the ripple frequency. If
a 100 P F, 2m : ceramic capacitor is used, the ripple
current in the ceramic capacitor will be about 4.2
times of that in the electrolytic capacitors. When
two 100 P F, 2m : ceramic capacitors are used, the
current ratio increases to 8.3. In this case most of
the ripple current flows in the ceramic decoupling
capacitor. The ESR of the ceramic capacitors will then
determine the output ripple-voltage.
5HVUG,R Aluminum capacitors (e.g. electrolytic) have high
capacitances and low ESLs. The ESR has the dominant
effect on the output ripple voltage. It is therefore
very important to minimize the ESR. Other types to
choose are solid OS-CON, POSCAP, and tantalum.
When determining the ESR value, both the steady
state ripple-voltage and the dynamic load transient
need to be considered. To meet the steady state
output ripple-voltage spec, the ESR should satisfy
5H VU¢
'92
G ,2
To limit the dynamic output voltage overshoot/
undershoot within a (say 3%) of the steady state
output voltage from no load to full load, the ESR
value should satisfy
5H VU ¢
Remark 2: The total equivalent capacitance of the
filter bank is not simply the sum of all the paralleled
capacitors. The total equivalent ESR is not simply the
parallel combination of all the individual ESRs either.
Instead they should be calculated using the following
formula.
92

Then, the required ESR value of the output capacitors
should be
Resr = min{Resr1,Resr2 }.

In many applications, several low ESR ceramic
capacitors are added in parallel with the aluminum
capacitors in order to further reduce ESR and improve
high frequency decoupling. Because the values of
capacitance and ESR are usually different in ceramic
and aluminum capacitors, the following remarks are
made to clarify some practical issues.

It can be seen that the current in the input capacitor
pulses with high di/dt. Capacitors with low ESL should
be used. It is also important to place the input capacitor

For reliable operation, the maximum power dissipation
in the capacitors should not result in more than 10oC

maximum allowable ripple current (ARMS) rating of
the capacitor at a given ripple frequency and ambient

enough to handle the ripple current. It is common
pratice that multiple capacitors are placed in parallel
to increase the ripple current handling capability.

Choosing P
ower MOSFET
Po
MOSFETss
Main considerations in selecting the MOSFET’s are
power dissipation, MOSFETs cost, and packaging.
Switching losses and conduction losses of the MOSFET’s
are directly related to the total gate charge (C g) and
channel on-resistance (R ds(on)). In order to judge the
performance of MOSFET’s, the product of the total
gate charge and on-resistance is used as a figure of
merit (FOM). Transistors with the same FOM follow
the same curve in Figure 8.
Sometimes meeting tight input voltage ripple
specifications may require the use of larger input
capacitance. At full load, the peak-to-peak input
voltage ripple due to the ESR is
δ
∆v ESR = R esr (1 + )Io .
2
The peak-to-peak input voltage ripple due to the
capacitor is
∆v C ≈
DIo
,
Cin fs
From these two expressions, CIN can be found to meet
the input voltage ripple specification. In a multi-phase
converter, channel interleaving can be used to reduce
ripple. The two step-down channels of the SC2544
operate at 180 degrees from each other. If both stepdown channels in the SC2544 are connected to the
same input rail, the input RMS currents will be reduced.
Ripple cancellation effect of interleaving allows the
use of smaller input capacitors.
Gate Charge (nC)
50
When two channels with a common input are
interleaved, the total DC input current is simply the
sum of the individual DC input currents. The combined
input current waveform depends on duty ratio and
the output current waveform. Assuming that the
output current ripple is small, the following formula
can be used to estimate the RMS value of the ripple
current in the input capacitor.

The closer the curve is to the origin, the lower is the
FOM. This means lower switching loss or lower
conduction loss or both. It may be difficult to find
MOSFET’s with both low C g and low R ds(on. Usually a
trade-off between R ds(on and Cg has to be made.
MOSFET power dissipation consists of
a) conduction loss due to the channel resistance Rds(on);
b) switching loss due to the switch rise time t r and
fall time t f; and
c) the gate loss due to the gate resistance RG.

MOSFET selection also depends on applications. In
many applications, either switching loss or conduction
loss dominates for a particular MOSFET. For
synchronous buck converters with high input to output
voltage ratios, the top MOSFET is hard switched but
conducts with very low duty cycle. The bottom switch
conducts at high duty cycle but switches at near zero
voltage. For such applications, MOSFET’s with low Cg
are used for the top switch and MOSFET’s with low
R ds(on) are used for the bottom switch.

If the input supply of the power converter varies
over a wide range, then it will be necessary to
weigh the relative importance of conduction and
switching losses. This is because conduction losses
are inversely proportional to the input voltage.
Switching loss however increases with the input
voltage. The total power loss of MOSFET should be
calculated and compared for high-line and low-line
cases. The worst case is then used for thermal
design.

where R ds(on) is the channel resistance of bottom
MOSFET. If the input voltage to output voltage ratio
is high (e.g. V in =12V, V o=1.5V), the duty ratio D will
be small. Since the bottom switch conducts with duty
ratio (1-D), the corresponding conduction losses can
be quite high.
The LC filter and PWM modulator represent the small

switching frequency. The transfer function of the

Due to non-overlapping conduction between the top and
the bottom MOSFET’s, the internal body diode or the
external Schottky diode across the drain and source
terminals always conducts prior to the turn on of the
bottom MOSFET. The bottom MOSFET switches on with
only a diode voltage between its drain and source
terminals. The switching loss is negligible due to near zerovoltage switching.

PC Board Layout Issues
Circuit board layout is very important for the proper
operation of high frequency switching power converters. A power ground plane is required to reduce
ground bounces. The followings are suggested for
proper layout.
Control Section
6) The frequency-setting resistor Rosc should be placed
close to Pin 23. Trace length from this resistor to the
analog ground should be minimized.
7) Place the bias decoupling capacitor right across
the VCC and analog ground AGND.
P o w er Stage
1) Separate the power ground from the signal ground. In
SC2544 design, use an isolated local ground plane for
the controller and tie it to power grand.
2) Minimize the size of the high pulse current loop.
Keep the top MOSFET, the bottom MOSFET and the
input capacitors within a small area with short and
wide traces. In addition to the aluminum energy
storage capacitors, add multi-layer ceramic (MLC)
capacitors from the input to the power ground to
improve high frequency bypass.
3) Reduce high frequency voltage ringing. Widen and
shorten the drain and source traces of the MOSFETs
to reduce stray inductances. Add a small RC snubber
if necessary to reduce the high frequency ringing at
the phase node. Sometimes slowing down the gate
drive signal also helps in reducing the high frequency
ringing at the phase node if the EMI is a concern for
the system.
4) Shorten the gate drive trace. Integrity of the
gate drive (voltage level, leading and falling edges)
is important for circuit operation and efficiency. Short
and wide gate drive traces reduce trace inductances.
Bond wire inductance is about 2~3nH. If the length of
the PCB trace from the gate driver to the MOSFET
gate is 1 inch, the trace inductance will be about
25nH. If the gate drive current is 2A with 10ns rise
and falling times, the voltage drops across the bond
wire and the PCB trace will be
0.6V and 5V
respectively. This may slow down the switching
transient of the MOSFET’s. These inductances may
also ring with the gate capacitance.
5) Put the decoupling capacitor for the gate drive power
supplies (BST and PVCC) close to the IC and power
ground.
