Applications Information
The crossover frequency and phase margin are set
by the output capacitor value.
Main Control Loop
Duty cycle extends to 100% as the input voltage
approaches the output voltage. Thermal shutdown
protection disables the device in the event of a
short circuit or overload condition.
The AAT1154 is a peak current mode buck converter. The inner wide bandwidth loop controls the
inductor peak current. The inductor current is
sensed as it flows through the internal P-Channel
MOSFET. A fixed slope compensation signal is
then added to the sensed current to maintain stability for duty cycles greater than 50%. The inner
loop appears as a voltage programmed current
source in parallel with the output capacitor.
The voltage error amplifier output programs the current loop for the necessary inductor current to force
a constant output voltage for all load and line conditions. The feedback resistive divider is internal,
dividing the output voltage to the error amplifier reference voltage of 1.0V. The error amplifier has a
limited DC gain. This eliminates the need for external compensation components while still providing
sufficient DC loop gain for good load regulation.
1154.2003.08.0.91
Soft Start/Enable
Soft-start controls the current limit when the input
voltage or enable is applied. It limits the current
surge seen at the input and eliminates output voltage overshoot.
The enable input, when pulled low, forces the
device into a low power non-switching state. The
total input current during shutdown is less than 1µA.
Power and Signal Source
Separate small signal ground and power supply
pins isolate the internal control circuitry from
switching noise. In addition, the low pass filter R1
and C3 in figure 3 filters noise associated with the
power switching.

Current Limit and Over Temp
Protection
The AAT1154 over temp and current limit circuitry
protects the AAT1154 as well as the external
Schottky diode during overload, short circuit and
excessive ambient temperature conditions. The
junction over temp threshold is 140°C nominal and
has 15°C of hysteresis. Typical graphs of the over
temp load current vs. input voltage and ambient temperature are shown in the Typical Characteristics
section.
Inductor
The output inductor is selected to limit the ripple
current to 20-40% of the full load current at the
maximum input voltage. Manufacturer's specifications list both the inductor DC current rating, which
is a thermal limitation, and the peak current rating,
which is determined by the inductor saturation
characteristics. The inductor should not show any
appreciable saturation under all normal load conditions. During overload and short circuit conditions
the inductor can exceed its peak current rating
without affecting the converter performance. Some
inductors may have sufficient peak and average
current ratings yet result in excessive losses due to
a high DC resistance (DCR). The losses associated with the DCR and its affect on the total converter efficiency must be considered.
For a 3 Amp load and the ripple current set to 30%
at the maximum input voltage, the maximum peak
to peak ripple current is 0.9Amp. Assuming a 5V ±
5% input voltage and 30% ripple the output inductance required is

The factor "k" is the fraction of the full load (30%)
selected for the ripple current at the maximum input
voltage.
The corresponding inductor RMS current is:
IRMS =
 2 ∆I 2 
I +
≈ I O = 3A
 O
12 
∆I is the peak to peak ripple current which is fixed by
the inductor selection above. For a peak to peak current of 30% of the full load current the peak current
at full load will be 115% of the full load. The 1.5µH
inductor selected from the Sumida CDRH6D38
series has a 11mΩ DCR and a 4.0 Amp DC current
rating with a height of 4 mm. At full load the inductor
DC loss is 99 mW for a 1 % loss in efficiency.
Schottky Freewheeling Diode
The Schottky average current is the load current
times one minus the duty cycle. For VIN at 5 Volts
and Vout at 3.3 Volts the average diode current is

For overload, short circuit, and excessive ambient
conditions the AAT1154 enters the over-temperature shutdown mode protecting the AAT1154 as well
as the output Schottky. In this mode the output current is limited internally until the junction temperature reaches the temperature limit (see over temp
characteristics graphs). The diode reverse voltage
must be rated to withstand the input voltage.

Input Capacitor Selection
The primary function of the input capacitor is to provide a low impedance loop for the edges of pulsed
current drawn by the AAT1154. A low ESR/ESL
ceramic capacitor is ideal for this function. To minimize the stray inductance the capacitor should be
placed as close as possible to the IC. This also
keeps the high frequency content of the input current localized, minimizing the radiated and conducted EMI while facilitating optimum performance
of the AAT1154. The proper placement of the input
capacitor C1 is shown in the layout in figure 1.
Ceramic X5R or X7R capacitors are ideal. The
size required will vary depending on the load, output voltage, and input voltage source impedance
characteristics. Typical values range from 1µF to
10 µF. The input capacitor RMS current varies with
the input voltage and the output voltage. It is highest when the input voltage is double the output voltage where it is one half of the load current.
IRMS = IO ·
VO 
V
· 1- O 
VIN  VIN 
A high ESR tantalum with a value about 10 times
the input ceramic capacitor may also be required
when using a 10µF or smaller ceramic input bypass
capacitor. This dampens out any input oscillations
that may occur due to the source inductance resonating with the converter input impedance
Output Capacitor
With no external compensation components, the
output capacitor has a strong effect on the loop stability. Larger output capacitance will reduce the
crossover frequency with greater phase margin. A
200µF ceramic capacitor provides sufficient bulk
capacitance to stabilize the output during large load
transitions and has ESR and ESL characteristics
necessary for very low output ripple. The RMS ripple current is given by
1154.2003.08.0.91

L · F · VIN
For a ceramic output capacitor the dissipation due
to the RMS current and output ripple associated
with are negligible.
Tantalum capacitors, with sufficiently low ESR to
meet output ripple requirements, generally have an
RMS current rating much greater than that actually
seen in this application. The maximum tantalum
output capacitor ESR is
ESR ≤
VRIPPLE
∆I
Where ∆I is the peak to peak inductor ripple current.
Due to the ESR zero associated with the tantalum
capacitor, smaller values than those required with
ceramic capacitors provide more phase margin a
with greater loop crossover frequency.
Layout
Figures 1 and 2 display the suggested PCB layout
for the AAT1154. The following guidelines should
be used to help insure a proper layout.
1. The connection from the input capacitor to the
Schottky anode should be as short as possible.
2. The input capacitor should connect as closely as
possible to VPOWER (pins 5 and 8) and GND (pin 2).
3. C1, L1, and CR1 should be connected as
closely as possible. The connection from the cathode of the Schottky to the LX node should be as
short as possible.
4. The feedback trace (pin 1) should be separate
from any power trace and connect as closely as
possible to the load point. Sensing along a high
current load trace can degrade DC load regulation.
5. The resistance of the trace from the load
return to the gnd (pin 2) should be kept to a minimum. This will help to minimize any error in DC
regulation due to differences in the potential of the
internal reference ground and the load rtn.
6. R1 and C3 are required in order to provide
a cleaner power source for the AAT1154 control
circuitry.

Thermal
The losses associated with the AAT1154 output
switching MOSFET are due to switching losses
and conduction losses. The conduction losses are
associated with the RDS(ON) characteristics of the
output switching device. At the full load condition,
assuming continuous conduction mode (CCM), an
accurate calculation of the RDS(ON) losses can be
derived from the following equations.
PON = I RMS2 · RDS(ON)

Once the total losses have been determined the
junction temperature can be derived. The thermal
resistance (ΘJA) for the SO-8 package mounted on
an FR4 printed circuit board in still air is 110°C/W.

Output Capacitor
The output capacitor value required for sufficient
loop phase margin depends on the type of capacitor selected. For a low ESR ceramic capacitor a
minimum value of 200µF is required. For a low
ESR tantalum capacitor lower values are acceptable. While the relatively higher ESR associated
with the tantalum capacitor will give more phase
margin and a more damped transient response, the
output voltage ripple will be higher.
The 120µF Vishay 594D tantalum capacitor has an
ESR of 85 mΩ and a ripple current rating of 1.48
Arms in a C case size. Although smaller case sizes
are sufficiently rated for this ripple current, their
ESR level would result in excessive output ripple.
The ESR requirement for a tantalum capacitor can
be estimated by

Two or three 1812 X5R 100uF 6.3V ceramic
capacitors in parallel also provide sufficient phase
margin. The low ESR and ESL associated with
ceramic capacitors also reduces output ripple significantly over that seen with tantalum capacitors.
Temperature rise due to ESR ripple current dissipation is also reduced.

In the examples shown C1 is a ceramic capacitor
located as close to the IC as possible. C1 provides
the low impedance path for the sharp edges associated with the input current. C4 may or may not be
required depending upon the impedance characteristics looking back into the source. It serves to
dampen out any input oscillations that may arise
from a source that is highly inductive. For most
applications where the source has sufficient bulk
capacitance and is fed directly to the AA1154
through large PCB traces or planes it is not
required. When operating the AAT1154 evaluation
board on the bench C4 is required due to the
inductance of the wires running from the laboratory power supply to the evaluation board.
