Continuous conduction mode means that the inductor current does not ramp to zero during each cycle. ler ICs combine a switch mode regulator, push pull driver, precision voltage reference, and voltage detector in a single monolithic device. They offer both VIN extreme low quescient current, high efficiency, and IIN very low gate threshold voltage to ensure start-up with low battery voltage ( 0.8V typ.). Designed to ID IOUT SW maximize battery life in protable products, and mini- VOUT + EXT Isw Ico mize switching losses by only switching as needed service the load. PFM controllers transfer a discreate amount of energy per cycle and regulate the output voltage by VEXT modulating switching frequency with the constant turn-on time. Switching frequency depends on load, input voltage, and inductor value, and it can range up to 100KHz. IIN IPK When the output voltage drops, the error comparator enable 100kHz oscillator that turns on the MOSFET around 7.5µs and 2.5µs off time. Turning on the ISW MOSFET allows inductor current to ramp up, storing energy in a magnetic field. When MOSFET turns off that forces inductor current through diode to the output capacitor and load. As the stored energy is de- Charge Co. ID IOUT pleted, the current ramp down until the diode turns off. At this point, inductor may ring due to residual VSW TDIS Discharge Co. energy and stray capacitance. The output capacitor stores charge when current flowing through the dit ode is high, and release it when current is low, thereby maintaining a steady voltage across the load. As the load increases, the output capacitor dis- Discontinuous Conduction Mode charges faster and the error comparator initiates cycles sooner, increasing the switching frequency. The maximum duty cycle ensure adequate time for energy tranfer to output during the second half each cycle. Depending on circuit, PFM controller can operate in either discontinuous mode or continuous conduction ANALOG INTEGRATIONS CORPORATION www.analog.com.tw 4F, 9 Industry E. 9th Road, Science-based Industrial Park , Hsinchu, Taiwan, R.O.C.

First, the inductance must be low enough for the inductor to store adquate energy under the worst case condition of minimum input voltage and switch ON time. Second, the inductance must also be high enough so maximum current rating of AIC1641 and inductor are not exceed at the other worst case cindition of maximum input voltage and ON time. Lastly, the inductor must have sufficiently low DC resistance so excessive power is not lost as heat in the windings. But unfotrunately this is inversely related to physical size.

Ordinary aluminum electrolytics, while inexpensive may have unacceptably poor ESR and ESL. There are low ESR aluminum capacitors for switch mode DC-DC converters which work much better than general porpuse unit. Tantalum capacitors provide still better performance at more expensive. OS-CON capacitors have extremely low ESR in a small size. If capacitance is reduced, output ripple will increase. Most of the input supply is supplied by the input bypasss capacitor, the capacitor voltage rating should be at least 1.25 times greather than a maximum input voltage. DIODE SELECTION Speed, forward drop, and leakage current are the three main consideration in selecting a rectifier diode. Best performance is obtained with Schottky retifier diode such 1N5819. Motorola makes MBR0530 in surface mount. For lower output power a 1N4148 can be 4.5 used although efficiency and start-up voltage will suffer substantially. COMPONENT POWER DISSIPATION Opeating in discontinuous mode, power loss in the winding resistance of inductor can be approximate equal to PD L = 2 TON VOUT + VD (Rs ) (POUT ) 3 L VOUT where POUT=VOUT * IOUT ; Rs=Inductor DC R; VD = Diode drop. The power dissipated in a switch loss is PDsw = 2 TON VOUT + VD − VIN (RON) (POUT ) 3 L VOUT The power dissipated in rectifier diode is VD PDd = (POUT ) VOUT ANALOG INTEGRATIONS CORPORATION www.analog.com.tw 4F, 9 Industry E. 9th Road, Science-based Industrial Park , Hsinchu, Taiwan, R.O.C.
