PCB trace length from VOUT to the output filter capacitor(s) should be as short and wide as is practical. Switch Pin. Connect an inductor between this pin and VIN. Keep the PCB trace lengths as short and wide as is practical to reduce EMI and voltage overshoot. If the inductor current falls to zero, or pin EN is low, an internal 100Ω anti-ringing switch is connected from this pin to VIN to minimize EMI. Note: An optional Schottky diode can be connected between this pin and VOUT. Power Ground. Provide a short, direct PCB path between this pin and the output capacitor(s). Ground Enable Pin. Logic controlled enable input. 1 = Normal operation 0 = Shutdown Note: In a typical application, EN should be connected to VIN through a 1MΩ pull-up resistor. POK. High when VOUT is within regulation. Input Voltage. The AS1337 gets its start-up bias from VIN unless VOUT exceeds VIN, in which case the bias is derived from VOUT. Thus, once started, operation is completely independent from VIN. Operation is only limited by the output power level and the internal series resistance of the supply. Feedback Pin. Feedback input to the gm error amplifier. Connect a resistor divider tap to this pin.

With low RDS(ON) and gate charge internal NMOS and PMOS switches, the device maintains high-efficiency from light to heavy loads. Modern portable devices frequently spend extended time in low-power or standby modes, switching to high powerdrain only when certain functions are enabled. The AS1337 is ideal for portable devices since they maintain highpower conversion efficiency over a wide output power range, thus increasing battery life in these types of devices. In addition to high-efficiency at moderate and heavy loads, the AS1337 includes an automatic powersave mode that improves efficiency of the power converter at light loads. The powersave mode is initiated if the output load current falls below a factory programmed threshold. The Overtemperature protection circuitry turn-off both switches for a short time when the temperature reaches 145ºC in the device . Figure 13.

The low-voltage start-up circuitry controls the internal switches and provides a soft start function, where the inductor current during start up is limited for a certain time. This soft start and in rush current limitation feature provides also a smooth curve of VOUT after start up and makes the overshoot of VOUT minimal. To achieve this, a 100pF capacitor as CFF is needed (see Figure 13 on page 7) to speed up the feedback loop. After a certain time a bigger inductor current is allowed and the soft start is disabled. Low-Noise Fixed-Frequency Operation Oscillator The AS1337 switching frequency is internally fixed at 1.2MHz allowing the use of very small external components. Current Sensing A signal representing the internal NMOS-switch current is summed with the slope compensator. The summed signal is compared to the error amplifier output to provide a peak current control command for the PWM. Peak switch current is limited to approximately 850mA independent of VIN or VOUT. Zero Current Comparator The zero current comparator monitors the inductor current to the output and shuts off the PMOS synchronous rectifier once this current drops to 20mA (approx.). This prevents the inductor current from reversing polarity and results in improved converter efficiency at light loads. Anti-Ringing Control Anti-ringing control circuitry prevents high-frequency ringing on pin LX as the inductor current approaches zero. This is accomplished by damping the resonant circuit formed by the inductor and the capacitance on pin LX. Setting Output Voltage A voltage divider from VOUT to GND programs the output voltage from 2.5V to 5V via pin FB as: VOUT = 1.23V(1 + (R1/R2)) (EQ 1) Powersave Operation In light load conditions, the integrated powersave feature removes power from all circuitry not required to monitor VOUT. When VOUT has dropped approximately 1% from nominal, the AS1337 powers up and begins normal PWM operation. COUT (see Figure 13 on page 7) recharges, causing the AS1337 to re-enter powersave mode as long as the output load remains below the powersave threshold. The frequency of this intermittent PWM is proportional to load current; i.e., as the load current drops further below the powersave threshold, the AS1337 turns on less frequently. When the load current increases above the powersave threshold, the AS1337 will resume continuous, seamless PWM operation. Note: An optional capacitor (CFF) between pins VOUT and FB in some applications can reduce VOUTp-p ripple and input quiescent current during powersave mode. Typical values for CFF range from 15pF to 220pF. Buck Mode The AS1337A offers a low power buck mode for VIN > VOUT operation. The switching during buck mode is similar to boost mode, but with forced reduction of some energy internal to be able to provide a buck conversion. www.austriamicrosystems.com/DC-DC_Step-Up/AS1337 Revision 1.04 8 - 14 AS1337 Datasheet - D e t a i l e d D e s c r i p t i o n Shutdown When pin EN is low the AS1337 is switched off and <1µA current is drawn from battery; when pin EN is high the device is switched on. If EN is driven from a logic-level output, the logic high-level (on) should be referenced to VOUT to avoid intermittently switching the device on. Note: If pin EN is not used, it should be connected directly to pin VOUT. Caution: Because of the feedthrough the output voltage is the same as the input voltage during shutdown. If VIN > VOUT the output voltage will jump to the value of the input voltage when the device switches into shutdown. During normal operation the device is in down conversion mode. Shutdown Battery Feedthrough (AS1337A) In shutdown the battery input of the AS1337A is connected to the output through the inductor and the small internal synchronous rectifier P-FET. This allows the input battery to provide backup power for devices such as an idle microcontroller, memory, or real-time-clock, without the usual diode forward drop. In this way a separate backup battery is not needed. Shutdown Battery Disconnect (AS1337B) The AS1337B is designed to allow true output disconnect by opening both P-channel MOSFET rectifiers. During Shutdown VOUT is discharged via the internal NMOS transistor and connected to GND. POK Function The POK output indicates if the output voltage is within 88% (typ.) of the nominal voltage level. As long as the output voltage is within regulation the open-drain POK output is high impedance. The POK output can be tied to VIN or to VOUT or to any external voltage up to VIN or VOUT via a pull-up resistance (see Figure 1 on page 1). If the output voltage drops below 88% (typ.) of the nominal voltage the POK pin is pulled to GND. Note: It is important to consider that in shutdown mode the POK output is pulled to VIN in order to save current. www.austriamicrosystems.com/DC-DC_Step-Up/AS1337 Revision 1.04 9 - 14 AS1337 Datasheet - A p p l i c a t i o n I n f o r m a t i o n 9 Application Information The AS1337 is perfectly suited for LED matrix displays, bar-graph displays, instrument-panel meters, dot matrix displays, set-top boxes, white goods, professional audio equipment, medical equipment, industrial controllers to name a few applications.

The high operating frequency and low peak currents of the AS1337 allow the use of low value, low profile inductors and tiny external ceramic capacitors. Inductor Selection The inductor should have low ESR to reduce the I²R power losses, and must be able to handle the peak inductor current without saturating. High-frequency ferrite core inductor materials reduce frequency dependent power losses compared to less expensive powdered iron types, which result in improved converter efficiency. A 4.7µH to 15µH inductor value with a >850mA current rating and low DCR is recommended. For applications where radiated noise is a concern, a toroidal or shielded inductor can be used. Capacitor Selection A 10µF capacitor is recommend for CIN as well as a 22µF for COUT. Small-sized ceramic capacitors are recommended. X5R and X7R ceramic capacitors are recommend as they retain capacitance over wide ranges of voltages and temperatures. Output Capacitor Selection Low ESR capacitors should be used to minimize VOUT ripple. Multi-layer ceramic capacitors are recommended since they have extremely low ESR and are available in small footprints. A 1 to 10µF output capacitor is sufficient for most applications. Larger values up to 22µF may be used to obtain extremely low output voltage ripple and improve transient response. An additional phase lead capacitor may be required with output capacitors larger than 10µF to maintain acceptable phase margin. X5R and X7R dielectric materials are recommended due to their ability to maintain capacitance over wide voltage and temperature ranges. Input Capacitor Selection Low ESR input capacitors reduce input switching noise and reduce the peak current drawn from the battery. Ceramic capacitors are recommended for input decoupling and should be located as close to the device as is practical. A 4.7µF input capacitor is sufficient for most applications. Larger values may be used without limitations. Table 5.
