External component selection is determined by the maximum load current and begins with the selection of the inductor value and operating frequency followed by CIN and COUT. Inductor selection The output inductor is selected to limit the ripple current to some predetermined value. typically 20%~40% of the full load current at the maximum input voltage. Large value inductors lower ripple currents. Higher Vin or VOUT also increases the ripple current as shown in equation. A reasonable starting point for setting ripple current is △IL=240mA(40% of 600mA). The DC current rating of the inductor should be at least equal to the maximum load current plus half the ripple current to prevent core saturation. Thus, a 720mA rated Inductor should be enough for most applications (600mA+120mA). For better efficiency, choose a low DC-resistance inductor. LP3203 series resistance(ESR) that is required to minimize voltage ripple and load step transients, an well as the amount or bulk capacitance that is necessary to ensure that the control loop is stable. Loop stability can be checked by viesing the load transient response as described in later section.the output ripple, △ VOUT, is determined by: Using ceramic input and output capacitors Higher values, lower cost ceramic capacitors are now becoming .Available in smaller case sizes ,their high ripple current ,high voltage rating and low ESR make them ideal for switching regulator applications. however care must be taken when these capacitors are used at the input and output. When a ceramic capacitor is use at input and the power is supplied by a wall adapter through long wires, a load step at the output can induce ringing at the input ,VIN, At worst,a sudden inrush of current through the long wires can potentially cause a voltage spike at VIN large enough to damage the part. Output voltage programming CIN and COUT Selection The input capacitance, CIN ,is needed to filter the trapezoidal current at the source of the top MOSFET. To prevent large ripple voltage, a low ESR input capacitor Sized for the maximum RMS current should be used. RMS current is given by: The output voltage is set by a resistive divider according to the Following formula: The external resistive divider is connected to the output, allowing Remote voltage sensing as shown in figure3. This formula has a maximum at VIN=2VOUT, where IRMS=IOUT/2.this simple worst-case condition is commonly.Used for design because even significant deviations do not offer much relief. Note that ripple current ratings from capacitor manufacturers are often based on only 2000 hours of life which makes it advisable to further derate the Capacitor, or choose a capacitor rated at a higher temperature Than required. Several capacitors may also be paralleled to meet size or height requirements in the design. The selection of COUT is determined by the effective LP3203 – Ver. 1.0 Datasheet Dec.-2006 Efficiency considerations The efficiency of a switching regulator is equal to the output Power divided by the input power times 100%.it is often useful to analyze individual losses to determine what is limiting the efficiency and which change would produce the most improvement efficiency can be expressed as : Page 7 of 10 Preliminary Datasheet Efficiency= 100%- (L1+L2+L3…) Where L1、L2, etc. are the individual losses as a percentage of Input power .although all dissipative elements in the for most of losses: VIN quiescent current and 12R loss dominates the efficiency loss at medium to high load currents. In a typical efficiency plot, the efficiency curve at very low load currents can be misleading since the actual power lost is of no consequence. 1.The VIN quiescent current is due to two components: the DC Bias current as given in the electrical characteristics and the Internal main switch and synchronous switch gate charge currents. the gate charge current results from switching the gate capacitance of the internal power MOSFET switches .Each time the gate charge current. results from switching the gate capacitance of the internal power MOSFET switches. Each time the gate is switches from high to low to high again, a packet of charge △Q moves from VIN to ground. LP3203 2. 12Rlosses tae calculated from the resistances of the internal switches, RSW and external inductor RL. in continuous mode the average output current flowing through inductor L is “chopped” between the main switch and the synchronous switch. Thus, the series resistance looking into the LX pin is a function of both top and bottom MOSFER RDS(ON) and the duty cycle (DC) as follows: The RDS(ON) for both the top and bottom MOSFETS can be obtained from the typical performance characteristics curves. thus, to obtain 12R losses, simply add RSW to RL and multiply the square of the average output current. Other losses including CIN and COUT ESR dissipative losses and inductor core losses generally account for less than 2% of the total loss. The resulting △Q/△t is the current out of VIN that is typically larger than the DC bias current. In continuous mode. LGATCHG=f(QT+QB) Where QT and QB are the gate charges of the internal top and bottom switches. Both the DC bias and gate charge losses are proportional to VIN and thus their effects will be more pronounced at higher supply voltages. LP3203 – Ver. 1.0 Datasheet Dec.-2006 Page 8 of 10 Preliminary Datasheet LP3203 Checking Transient Response The regulator loop response can be checked by looking at the load transient response. Switching regulators take several cycles to respond to a step in load current. When a load step occurs, VOUT immediately shifts by an amount equal to ∆ILOAD (ESR), where ESR is the effective series resistance of COUT. ∆ILOAD also begins to charge or discharge COUT generating a feedback error signal used by the regulator to return VOUT to its steady-state value. During this recovery time, VOUT can be monitored for overshoot or ringing that would indicate a stability problem. Layout Considerations Follow the PCB layout guidelines for optimal performance of LP3203. For the main current paths as indicated in bold lines, keep their traces short and wide. Put the input capacitor as close as possible to the device pins (VIN and GND). LX node is with high frequency voltage swing and should be kept small area. Keep analog components away from LX node to prevent stray capacitive noise pick-up. Connect feedback network behind the output capacitors. Keep the loop area small. Place the feedback components near the LP3203. Connect all analog grounds to a command node and then connect the command node to the power ground behind the output capacitors.
