SLUS741C – NOVEMBER 2006 – REVISED MARCH 2007
The UCD7230 is a MOSFET gate driver specifically designed for synchronous buck applications. It is ideally
suited to provide the bridge between digital controllers such as the UCD91xx or the UCD95xx and the power
stage. With cycle-by-cycle current limit protection, the UCD7230 device protects the power stage from faulty
input signals or excessive load currents.
The UCD7230 includes high-side and low-side gate drivers which utilize Texas Instrument’s TrueDrive™ output
architecture. This architecture delivers rated current into the gate capacitance of a MOSFET during the Miller
plateau region of the switching. Furthermore, the UCD7230 offers a low offset differential amplifier with a fixed
gain of 48. This amplifier greatly simplifies the task of conditioning small current sense signals inherent in high
efficiency buck converters.
The UCD7230 includes a 3.3-V, 10-mA linear regulator to provide power to digital controllers such as the
UCD91xx. The UCD7230 is compatible with standard 3.3-V I/O ports of the UCD91xx, the TMS320TM family
DSPs, µCs, or ASICs.
The UCD7230 is offered in PowerPAD™ HTSSOP or space-saving QFN packages. Package pin out has been
carefully designed for optimal board layout

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Introduction
The UCD7230 is a synchronous buck driver with peak-current limiting. It is a member of the UCD7K family of
digital compatible drivers suitable either for applications utilizing digital control techniques or analog applications
that require local fast peak current limit protection.
In systems using the UCD7230, the feedback loop is closed externally and the IN signal represents the PWM
information required to regulate the output voltage. The PWM signal may be implemented by either a digital or
analog controller.
The UCD7230 has two over-current protection features, one that limits the peak current in the high-side switch
and one that limits the output current. Both limits are individually programmable. The internal current sense
blanking enables ease of design with real-world signals. In addition to over current limit protection, current sense
signals can be conditioned by the on board amplifier for use by the system controller.
Supply Requirements
The UCD7230 operates on a supply range of 4.5 V to 15.5 V. The supply voltage should be applied to three
pins, PVDD, VDD, and CSBIAS. PVDD is the supply pin for the lower driver, and has the greatest current
demands. The supply connection to PVDD is also the point where an external Schottky diode provides current to
the high side flying driver. PVDD should be bypassed to PGND with a low ESR ceramic capacitor. In the same
fashion, the flying driver should be bypassed between BST and SW.
VDD and CSBIAS are less demanding supply pins, and should be resistively coupled to the supply voltage for
isolation from noise generated by high current switching and parasitic board inductance. Use 33 Ω for CSBIAS
and 1 Ω for VDD. VDD should be bypassed to AGND with a 4.7-µF ceramic capacitor while CSBIAS should be
bypassed to AGND with 0.1 µF. Although the three supply pins are not internally connected, they must be
biased to the same voltage. It is important that all bypassing be done with low parasitic inductance techniques to
good ground planes.
PGND and AGND are the ground return connections to the chip. Ground plane construction should be used for
both pins. For a MOSFET driver operating at high frequency, it is critical to minimize the stray inductance to
minimize overshoot, undershoot, and ringing. The low output impedance of the drivers produces waveforms with
high di/dt. This induces ringing in the parasitic inductances. It is highly desirable that the UCD7230 and the
MOSFETs be collocated. PGND and the AGND pins should be connected to the PowerPAD™ of the package
with two thin traces. It is critical to ensure that the voltage potential between these two pins does not exceed 0.3
V.
Although quiescent VDD current is low, total supply current depends on the gate drive output current required for
the capacitive load and the switching frequency. Total supply current is the sum of quiescent VDD current and
the average OUT current. Knowing the operating frequency and the MOSFET gate charge (Qg), average OUT
current can be calculated from (IOUT = Qg x f), where f is the operating frequency.
Reference / External Bias Supply
The UCD7230 includes a series pass regulator to provide a regulated 3.3 V at the 3V3 pin that can be used to
power other circuits such as the UCD91xx, a microcontroller or an ASIC. 3V3 can source 10 mA of current. For
normal operation, place a 0.22-µF ceramic capacitor between 3V3 and AGND.
Control Inputs
IN and SRE are high impedance digital inputs designed for 3.3-V logic-level signals. They both have 100-kΩ
pull-down resistors. Schmitt Trigger input stage design immunizes the internal circuitry from external noise. IN is
the command input for the upper driver, OUT1, and can function up to 2 MHz. SRE controls the function of the
lower driver, OUT2. When SRE is false (low), OUT2 is held low. When SRE is true, OUT2 is inverted from OUT1
with appropriate delays that preclude cross conduction in the Buck MOSFETs.

APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)
Driver Stages
The driver outputs utilize Texas Instruments’ TrueDrive™ architecture, which delivers rated current into the gate
of a MOSFET when it is most needed, during the Miller plateau region of the switching transition. This provides
best switching speeds and reduces switching losses. TrueDrive™ consists of pull-up/ pull-down circuits using
bipolar and MOSFET transistors in parallel. This hybrid output stage also allows relatively constant current
sourcing even at reduced supply voltages.
The low-side high-current output stage of the UCD7230 device is capable of sourcing 1.7-A and sinking 3.5-A
current pulses and swings from PVDD to PGND. The high-side floating output driver is capable of sourcing 2.2-A
and sinking 3.5-A peak-current pulses. This ratio of gate currents, common to synchronous buck applications,
minimizes the possibility of parasitic turn on of the low-side power MOSFET due to dv/dt currents during the
rising edge switching transition. See the typical curves of sink and source current in Figure 3 and Figure 4
below.
If further limiting of the rise or fall times to the power device is desired, an external resistance can be added
between the output of the driver and the power MOSFET gate. The external resistor also helps remove power
dissipation from the driver.
Driver outputs follow IN and SRE as previously described provided that VDD and 3V3 are above their respective
under-voltage lockout thresholds. When the supplies are insufficient, the chip holds both OUT1 and OUT2 low.
It is worth reiterating the need mentioned in the supply section for sound high frequency design techniques in
the circuit board layout and bypass capacitor selection and placement. Some applications may generate
excessive ringing at the switch-inductor node. This ringing can drag SW to negative voltages that might cause
functional irregularities. To prevent this, carefull board layout and appropriate snubbing are essential. In addition,
it may be appropriate to couple SW to the inductor with a 1-Ω resistor, and then bypass SW to PGND with a low
impedance Schottky diode.

Current Sensing and Overload Protection
Since the UCD7230 is physically collocated with the high-current elements of the power converter, it is logical
that current be monitored by the chip. An internal instrumentation amplifier conditions current sense signals so
that they can be used by the control chip generating the PWM signal.
POS and NEG are inputs to an instrumentation amplifier circuit. This amplifier has a nominal gain of 48 and
presents its output at AO. This can be used to monitor either an external current sense shunt or a parallel RC
around the buck inductor shown in Figure 5. The shunt yields the highest accuracy and will be insensitive to
inductor core saturation effects. It comes with the price of added power dissipation. Using the shunt, AO is given
by:
AO = ( 48 ´ I OUT ´ RSHUNT ) + IO
The internal configuration of the instrumentation amplifier is such that AO is 0.6 V when POS – NEG = 0.
Because of this output offset, the amplifier can accurately pass information for both positive and negative load
current. The offset is controlled by IO. If IO is left to float, the offset is 0.6 V. 0.6 V is present at IO through an
internal 10-kΩ resistor and should be bypassed to AGND. If a higher value of offset is desired, a voltage in
excess of 0.66 V can be externally applied to IO. Once IO is forced above 0.66 V, the internal 10 kΩ is
disconnected, and the AO output offset is now equal to the voltage applied to IO.

Figure 5 also shows lossless current sensing utilizing an RC across the buck inductor to generate an analog of
the IR drop on the copper of the inductor. As long as the RPOS x C time constant is the same as the L/R of the
inductor and its parasitic equivalent series resistance, then the voltage on C is the same as the IR drop on the
parasitic inductor resistance. A resistor, RNEG = RPOS is used for amplifier bias current cancellation. The transfer
function of the amplifier is given by:
AO = ( A ´ I OUT ´ RCOPPER ) + IO

APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)
With the addition of RPOS and RNEG, the natural gain, A, of the current sense is predictably decreased as:
A=
48
æ RPOS ö
1+ ç
÷
è 8.33 k W ø
For RPOS << 8.33 kΩ, the gain is 48. While the 400 kΩ and 8.33 kΩ are well matched, it is important to keep
RPOS as small as possible since they have absolute variation from chip-to-chip and over temperature. The graph
in Figure 6 shows the band of expected gain for A as a function of RPOS. The gain variation at RPOS = 1 kΩ
results in around ±4% error. However, the tolerance of the value of R in the inductor has a more significant
effect on measurement accuracy as does the temperature coefficient of R. Copper has a temperature coefficient
of approximately 3800 ppm/°C. For a 100°C rise in winding temperature, the dc resistance of the inductor
increases by 38%. The worst case scenario would be a cracked core or under-designed inductor in which cases
the core could tend towards saturation. In that scenario, inductor current could change slope drastically and is
not correctly modeled by the capacitor voltage.
Note that inferring inductor current by use of a parallel RC has an additional caveat. As long as TRC = RPOS C is
the same as TLR = L/R, then the voltage across C is the same as the IR drop across the equivalent R of the
inductor. If the time constants don't match, the average voltage across C is still the same as the average voltage
across R, but the indication of ripple current amplitude will be off. Furthermore, load transients results in reported
current that appears to have overshoot or undershoot if TRC is respectively faster or slower than TLR.
While the amp faithfully passes the sensed dc current signal, it should be noted that the amplifier is bandwidth
limited for normal switching frequencies. Therefore, AO represents a moving average of the sensed current.

APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)
The amp output can go up to 3.3 V, so reasonable designs limits full scale to 3.0 V. Should attenuation be
necessary, use a resistive divider between AO and the control chip A/D input as shown in Figure 7.

Figure 7. Attenuating and Filtering the Voltage Representation of the Average Output Current
While the current sense amplifier is useful for accurate current monitoring or controlling overload conditions,
extreme overload conditions must be handled in timeframes that are generally much shorter than the A/D of a
control chip can achieve. Therefore, there are two comparators on the UCD7230 to sense extreme overload and
protect the driven power MOSFETs.
Extreme current overload is handled in two ways by the UCD7230. One is a comparator that monitors the
voltage between POS and NEG, or effectively the output current of the converter.. The other is a comparator
that monitors the voltage drop across the high-side MOSFET, or effectively the input current. Should either
condition exceed a preset value, OUT1 is immediately turned off for the remainder of the cycle.
To program the current limit, a value of resistance from DLY to AGND must first be chosen to establish a
blanking time during which the comparators will be blinded to switching noise. The blanking time starts with the
rising edge on IN for the input comparator and from both the rising and falling edge of IN for the output
comparator. Blanking time is given by:
t BLANK ( ns ) » 5 RDLY ( k W )
where RDLY is the resistor from DLY to AGND. RDLY should be limited to a range of 25 kΩ to 100 kΩ.
Once RDLY has been chosen, the threshold for the input comparator, i.e., the drop allowed across the high-side
MOSFET, is given by:
æR ö
VCS ( in ) = 1.2 ´ ç CS + ÷
è RDLY ø
Where VCS(in) is the threshold of allowed voltage across the high-side MOSFET and RCS+ is a resistor
connected from CS+ to the drain of the high-side MOSFET.
The blanking time for the output comparator is identical to the input comparator. The output comparator
threshold is given by:
VCS ( out ) =
I LIM
10
where VCS(out) is the threshold of allowed voltage between the POS and NEG pins and ILIM is the voltage on the
ILIM pin. Note that the ILIM is internally connected to 0.5 V through a 42 kΩ resistor. Any voltage between 0.25
V and 1.0 V can be applied to ILIM. For voltages above 1.0 V, the maximum VCS(OUT) threshold is clamped to 0.1
V. Possible methods for setting ILIM are shown in Figure 8.
When using the output comparator to monitor the voltage on the parallel sensing capacitor across the inductor,
the same caveats apply as described for the current sense amplifier.

APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)
If either comparator threshold is exceeded, OUT1 is immediately turned off for the remainder of the cycle and
CLF is asserted true. Upon the rising edge of IN, the switches resume normal operation, but the CLF assertion
is maintained. If a fault is not detected in this switching cycle, then the next rising edge of IN removes the CLF
assertion. However, if one of the comparators detects a fault, then CLF assertion continues. It is the privilege of
the control device to monitor CLF and decide how to handle the fault condition. In the mean while, the protection
comparators protect the power MOSFET switches on a cycle-by-cycle basis. If the output-sense comparator
(POS - NEG) detects continuous over-current, then the driver assumes 0% duty cycle until the current drops to a
safe value. Note that when a fault condition causes OUT1 to be driven low, OUT2 behaves as if the input pulse
had been terminated normally. In some fault conditions, it is advantageous to drive OUT2 low. SRE can be used
to cause OUT2 to remain low at the discretion of the control chip. This can be used to achieve faster discharge
of the inductor and also to fully disconnect the converter from the output voltage.
Startup Handshaking
The UCD7230 has a built-in handshaking feature to facilitate efficient start-up of the digitally controlled power
supply. At start-up the CLF flag is held high until all the internal and external supply voltages of the device are
within their operating range. Once the supply voltages are within acceptable limits, CLF goes low and the device
will process input commands. The digital controller should monitor CLF at start-up and wait for CLF to go low
before sending pwm information to the UCD7230.
Thermal Management
The usefulness of a driver is greatly affected by the drive power requirements of the load and the thermal
characteristics of the device package. In order for a power driver to be used over a particular temperature range,
the package must allow for the efficient removal of the heat while keeping the junction temperature within rated
limits. The UCD7230 is available in PowerPAD™ HTSSOP and QFN packages to cover a range of application
requirements. Both have the exposed pads to remove thermal energy from the semiconductor junction.
As illustrated in Reference [3 & 4], the PowerPAD™ packages offer a lead-frame die pad that is exposed at the
base of the package. This pad is soldered to the copper on the PC board (PCB) directly underneath the device
package, reducing the θJA down to 38°C/W. The PC board must be designed with thermal lands and thermal
vias to complete the heat removal subsystem, as summarized in Reference [3].
Note that the PowerPAD™ is not directly connected to any leads of the package. However, it is electrically and
thermally connected to the substrate which is the ground of the device. The PowerPAD™ should be connected
to the quiet ground of the circuit.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, modifications, enhancements,
improvements, and other changes to its products and services at any time and to discontinue any product or service without notice.
Customers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All products are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its hardware products to the specifications applicable at the time of sale in accordance with TI’s
standard warranty. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary to support this
warranty. Except where mandated by government requirements, testing of all parameters of each product is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or customer product design. Customers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with customer products and applications, customers should
provide adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any TI patent right, copyright, mask
work right, or other TI intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services
are used. Information published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license from TI to use such
products or services or a warranty or endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under
the patents or other intellectual property of the third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is
accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. Reproduction of this information with alteration is an
unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation.
Resale of TI products or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business
practice. TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
TI products are not authorized for use in safety-critical applications (such as life support) where a failure of the TI product would
reasonably be expected to cause severe personal injury or death, unless officers of the parties have executed an agreement
specifically governing such use. Buyers represent that they have all necessary expertise in the safety and regulatory ramifications
of their applications, and acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for all legal, regulatory and safety-related
requirements concerning their products and any use of TI products in such safety-critical applications, notwithstanding any
applications-related information or support that may be provided by TI. Further, Buyers must fully indemnify TI and its
representatives against any damages arising out of the use of TI products in such safety-critical applications.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments unless the TI products are
specifically designated by TI as military-grade or "enhanced plastic." Only products designated by TI as military-grade meet military
specifications. Buyers acknowledge and agree that any such use of TI products which TI has not designated as military-grade is
solely at the Buyer's risk, and that they are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in
connection with such use.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in automotive applications or environments unless the specific TI products
are designated by TI as compliant with ISO/TS 16949 requirements. Buyers acknowledge and agree that, if they use any
non-designated products in automotive applications, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet such requirements.
