Peak current mode control with internal compensation provides a stable converter with low ESR ceramic output capacitors for extremely low output ripple.
Each channel has a low 25µA quiescent operating
current, which is critical for maintaining high efficiency at light load.
For maximum battery life, each converter's highside P-channel MOSFET conducts continuously
when the input voltage approaches dropout (100%
duty cycle operation).

Operation
Device Summary
The AAT2511 is a constant frequency peak current
mode PWM converter with internal compensation.
Each channel has independent input, enable, feedback, and ground pins with non-synchronized
1MHz clocks.
8
Both converters are designed to operate with an
input voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V. The output
voltage ranges from 0.6V to the input voltage. The
0.6V fixed model shown in Figure 1 is also the
adjustable version and is externally programmable
with a resistive divider as shown in Figure 2. The
converter MOSFET power stage is sized for
600mA load capability with up to 97% efficiency.
Light load efficiency exceeds 80% at a 500µA load.

Enhanced Transient Response.
Soft Start
The AAT2511 soft-start control prevents output voltage overshoot and limits inrush current when either
the input power or the enable input is applied.
When pulled low, the enable input forces the converter into a low-power, non-switching state with a
bias current of less than 1µA.
Low Dropout Operation
For conditions where the input voltage drops to the
output voltage level, the converter duty cycle
increases to 100%. As 100% duty cycle is
approached, the minimum off-time initially forces
the high side on-time to exceed the 1MHz clock
cycle and reduce the effective switching frequency.
Once the input drops below the level where the output can be regulated, the high side P-channel
2511.2006.05.1.4
MOSFET is turned on continuously for 100% duty
cycle. At 100% duty cycle, the output voltage tracks
the input voltage minus the I*R drop of the high
side P-channel MOSFET RDS(ON).
Low Supply
The under-voltage lockout (UVLO) feature guarantees sufficient VIN bias and proper operation of all
internal circuitry prior to activation.
Fault Protection
For overload conditions, the peak inductor current is
limited. Thermal protection disables switching when
the internal dissipation or ambient temperature
becomes excessive. The junction over-temperature
threshold is 140°C with 15°C of hysteresis.

AAT2511
Dual 600mA, 1MHz Step-Down DC/DC Converter
Applications Information
Inductor Selection
The step-down converter uses peak current mode
control with slope compensation to maintain stability for duty cycles greater than 50%. The output
inductor value must be selected so the inductor
current down slope meets the internal slope compensation requirements. The internal slope compensation for the adjustable and low-voltage fixed
versions of the AAT2511 is 0.24A/µsec. This
equates to a slope compensation that is 75% of the
inductor current down slope for a 1.5V output and
4.7µH inductor.

m=
This is the internal slope compensation for the
adjustable (0.6V) version or low-voltage fixed version. When externally programming the 0.6V version to a 2.5V output, the calculated inductance
would be 7.5µH.
L=
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
saturation characteristics. The inductor should not
show any appreciable saturation under normal load
conditions. Some inductors may meet the peak and
average current ratings yet result in excessive losses due to a high DCR. Always consider the losses
associated with the DCR and its effect on the total
converter efficiency when selecting an inductor.
The 4.7µH CDRH3D16 series inductor selected
from Sumida has a 105mΩ DCR and a 900mA DC
current rating. At full load, the inductor DC loss is
38mW for a 600mA 1.5V output.
Input Capacitor
Select a 4.7µF to 10µF X7R or X5R ceramic capacitor for the input. To estimate the required input
capacitor size, determine the acceptable input ripple level (VPP) and solve for C. The calculated
value varies with input voltage and is a maximum
when VIN is double the output voltage.

2511.2006.05.1.4
AAT2511
Dual 600mA, 1MHz Step-Down DC/DC Converter
The equation below solves for input capacitor size
for both channels. It makes the worst-case
assumptions that both converters are operating at
50% duty cycle and are synchronized.
1
CIN =
⎛ VPP
⎞
- ESR · 4 · FS
⎝ IO1 + IO2
⎠
Because the AAT2511 channels will generally operate at different duty cycles and are not synchronized, the actual ripple will vary and be less than
the ripple (VPP) used to solve for the input capacitor in the equation above.
Always examine the ceramic capacitor DC voltage
coefficient characteristics when selecting the proper value. For example, the capacitance of a 10µF
6.3V X5R ceramic capacitor with 5V DC applied is
actually about 6µF.
The maximum input capacitor RMS current is:
IRMS = IO1 · ⎛
⎝
VO1 ⎛
V ⎞
· 1 - O1 ⎞ + IO2 · ⎛
VIN ⎝
VIN ⎠ ⎠
⎝
VO2 ⎛
V ⎞
· 1 - O2 ⎞
VIN ⎝
VIN ⎠ ⎠
The input capacitor RMS ripple current varies with
the input and output voltage and will always be less
than or equal to half of the total DC load current of
both converters combined.
IRMS(MAX) =
IO1(MAX) + IO2(MAX)
2
This equation also makes the worst-case assumption that both converters are operating at 50% duty
cycle and are synchronized. Since the converters
are not synchronized and are not both operating at
50% duty cycle, the actual RMS current will always
be less than this. Losses associated with the input
ceramic capacitor are typically minimal.
VO
⎛
VO ⎞
The term VIN · ⎝1 - VIN ⎠ appears in both the input
voltage ripple and input capacitor RMS current
equations. It is a maximum when VO is twice VIN.
This is why the input voltage ripple and the input
2511.2006.05.1.4
capacitor RMS current ripple are a maximum at
50% duty cycle.
The input capacitor provides a low impedance loop
for the edges of pulsed current drawn by the
AAT2511. Low ESR/ESL X7R and X5R ceramic
capacitors are ideal for this function. To minimize
the stray inductance, the capacitor should be
placed as closely as possible to the IC. This keeps
the high frequency content of the input current
localized, minimizing EMI and input voltage ripple.
The proper placement of the input capacitor (C3
and C8) can be seen in the evaluation board layout
in Figure 4. Since decoupling must be as close to
the input pins as possible, it is necessary to use
two decoupling capacitors. C3 provides the bulk
capacitance required for both converters, while C8
is a high frequency bypass capacitor for the second
channel (see C3 and C8 placement in Figure 4).
A laboratory test set-up typically consists of two
long wires running from the bench power supply to
the evaluation board input voltage pins. The inductance of these wires, along with the low ESR
ceramic input capacitor, can create a high Q network that may affect converter performance.
This problem often becomes apparent in the form
of excessive ringing in the output voltage during
load transients. Errors in the loop phase and gain
measurements can also result.
Since the inductance of a short printed circuit board
trace feeding the input voltage is significantly lower
than the power leads from the bench power supply,
most applications do not exhibit this problem.
In applications where the input power source lead
inductance cannot be reduced to a level that does
not affect converter performance, a high ESR tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitor should be
placed in parallel with the low ESR, ESL bypass
ceramic capacitor. This dampens the high Q network and stabilizes the system.
Output Capacitor
The output capacitor limits the output ripple and
provides holdup during large load transitions. A
4.7µF to 10µF X5R or X7R ceramic capacitor typically provides sufficient bulk capacitance to stabi-

AAT2511
Dual 600mA, 1MHz Step-Down DC/DC Converter
lize the output during large load transitions and has
the ESR and ESL characteristics necessary for low
output ripple.
The output voltage droop due to a load transient is
dominated by the capacitance of the ceramic output capacitor. During a step increase in load current the ceramic output capacitor alone supplies
the load current until the loop responds. As the loop
responds, the inductor current increases to match
the load current demand. This typically takes two
to three switching cycles and can be estimated by:
COUT =
3 · ΔILOAD
VDROOP · FS
Once the average inductor current increases to the
DC load level, the output voltage recovers. The
above equation establishes a limit on the minimum
value for the output capacitor with respect to load
transients.
The internal voltage loop compensation also limits
the minimum output capacitor value to 4.7µF. This
is due to its effect on the loop crossover frequency
(bandwidth), phase margin, and gain margin.
Increased output capacitance will reduce the
crossover frequency with greater phase margin.
The maximum output capacitor RMS ripple current
is given by:
1
· (VIN(MAX) - VOUT)
V
IRMS(MAX) =
· OUT
L · F · VIN(MAX)
2· 3
Dissipation due to the RMS current in the ceramic
output capacitor ESR is typically minimal, resulting in
less than a few degrees rise in hot spot temperature.
Adjustable Output Resistor Selection
For applications requiring an adjustable output voltage, the 0.6V version can be programmed externally. Resistors R1 through R4 of Figure 1 program
the output to regulate at a voltage higher than 0.6V.
To limit the bias current required for the external
feedback resistor string, the minimum suggested
value for R2 and R4 is 59kΩ. Although a larger
value will reduce the quiescent current, it will also
increase the impedance of the feedback node,
making it more sensitive to external noise and
interference. Table 2 summarizes the resistor values for various output voltages with R2 and R4 set
to either 59kΩ for good noise immunity or 221kΩ
for reduced no load input current.

The adjustable version of the AAT2511 in combination with an external feedforward capacitor (C4 and

addition of the feedforward capacitor typically
requires a larger output capacitor (C1 and C2) for
stability.

Dual 600mA, 1MHz Step-Down DC/DC Converter
Thermal Calculations
There are three types of losses associated with the
AAT2511 converter: switching losses, conduction
losses, and quiescent current losses. Conduction
losses are associated with the RDS(ON) characteristics
of the power output switching devices. Switching
losses are dominated by the gate charge of the
power output switching devices. At full load, assuming continuous conduction mode (CCM), a simplified
form of the dual converter losses is given by:
Given the total losses, the maximum junction temperature can be derived from the θJA for the
TDFN33-12 package which is 50°C/W.
TJ(MAX) = PTOTAL · ΘJA + TAMB
PCB Layout
The following guidelines should be used to insure a
proper layout.
PTOTAL =
+
IO12 · (RDSON(HS) · VO1 + RDSON(LS) · [VIN -VO1])
VIN
IO22 · (RDSON(HS) · VO2 + RDSON(LS) · [VIN -VO2])
VIN
+ (tsw · F · [IO1 + IO2] + 2 · IQ) · VIN
IQ is the AAT2511 quiescent current for one channel and tsw is used to estimate the full load switching losses.
For the condition where channel one is in dropout
at 100% duty cycle, the total device dissipation
reduces to:
PTOTAL = IO12 · RDSON(HS)
+
IO22 · (RDSON(HS) · VO2 + RDSON(LS) · [VIN -VO2])
VIN
+ (tsw · F · IO2 + 2 · IQ) · VIN
Since RDS(ON), quiescent current, and switching
losses all vary with input voltage, the total losses
should be investigated over the complete input
voltage range.
2511.2006.05.1.4
1. Due to the pin placement of VIN for both converters, proper decoupling is not possible with
just one input capacitor. The large input capacitor C3 should connect as closely as possible to
VP and GND, as shown in Figure 3. The additional input bypass capacitor C8 is necessary for
proper high frequency decoupling of the second
converter.
2. The output capacitor and inductor should be
connected as closely as possible. The connection of the inductor to the LX pin should also be
as short as possible.
3. The feedback trace should be separate from any
power trace and connect as closely as possible
to the load point. Sensing along a high-current
load trace will degrade DC load regulation. If
external feedback resistors are used, they
should be placed as closely as possible to the
FB pin. This prevents noise from being coupled
into the high impedance feedback node.
4. The resistance of the trace from the load return
to GND 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 signal ground and the power ground.
5. For good thermal coupling, PCB vias are required
from the pad for the TDFN paddle to the ground
plane. The via diameter should be 0.3mm to
0.33mm and positioned on a 1.2 mm grid.
