The MP2360 operates from a +4.5V to +24V unregulated input. C1 is needed to prevent large voltage spikes from appearing at the input. On/Off Control Input. Pull above 1.2V to turn the device on. Feedback. An external resistor divider from the output to GND, tapped to the FB pin sets the output voltage. To prevent current limit run away during a short circuit fault condition the frequency foldback comparator lowers the oscillator frequency when the FB voltage is below 250mV. Ground. This pin is the voltage reference for the regulated output voltage. For this reason care must be taken in its layout. This node should be placed outside of the D1 to C1 ground path to prevent switching current spikes from inducing voltage noise into the part. Bootstrap. This capacitor is needed to drive the power switch’s gate above the supply voltage. It is connected between SW and BST pins to form a floating supply across the power switch driver.

All Rights Reserved. 4 TM MP2360 – 1.8A, 24V, 1.4MHz STEP-DOWN CONVERTER OPERATION The MP2360 is a current mode buck regulator. That is, the EA output voltage is proportional to the peak inductor current. At the beginning of a cycle, M1 is off. The EA output voltage is higher than the current sense amplifier output, and the current comparator’s output is low. The rising edge of the 1.4 MHz CLK signal sets the RS Flip-Flop. Its output turns on M1 thus connecting the SW pin and inductor to the input supply. The increasing inductor current is sensed and amplified by the Current Sense Amplifier. Ramp compensation is summed to Current Sense Amplifier output and compared to the Error Amplifier output by the PWM Comparator. When the sum of the Current Sense Amplifier output and the Slope Compensation signal exceeds the EA output voltage, the RS FlipFlop is reset and the M1 is turned off. The external Schottky rectifier diode (D1) conducts the inductor current. If the sum of the Current Sense Amplifier output and the Slope Compensation signal does not exceed the EA output for a whole cycle, then the falling edge of the CLK resets the Flip-Flop. The output of the Error Amplifier integrates the voltage difference between the feedback and the 0.81V bandgap reference. The polarity is such that a FB pin voltage lower than 0.8V increases the EA output voltage. Since the EA output voltage is proportional to the peak inductor current, an increase in its voltage also increases current delivered to the output.

The feedback resistor R1 also sets the feedback loop bandwidth with the internal compensation capacitor (see Figure 1). R2 can be determined by: R2 = R1 VOUT −1 0.81V Table 1—Resistor Selection for Common Output Voltages VOUT (V) R1 (kΩ) R2 (kΩ) 1.8 2.5 3.3 5 80.6 (1%) 49.9 (1%) 49.9 (1%) 49.9 (1%) 64.9 (1%) 23.7 (1%) 16.2 (1%) 9.53 (1%) Selecting the Inductor A 1µH to 10µH inductor with a DC current rating of at least 25% percent higher than the maximum load current is recommended for most applications. For highest efficiency, the inductor’s DC resistance should be less than 200mΩ. For most designs, the required inductance value can be derived from the following equation. L= VOUT × ( VIN − VOUT ) VIN × ∆IL × f OSC Where ∆IL is the inductor ripple current. Choose an inductor with a rating current of approximately 30% higher than the maximum load current if the maximum load current is ≥1.8A. The maximum inductor peak current is calculated from: IL(MAX ) = ILOAD ∆I + L 2 Under light load conditions below 100mA, a larger inductance is recommended for improved efficiency. See Table 2 for suggested inductors. Selecting the Input Capacitor The input capacitor reduces the surge current drawn from the input and the switching noise from the device. The input capacitor impedance at the switching frequency should be less than the input source impedance to prevent high frequency switching current from passing through the input. Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics are highly recommended because of their low ESR and small temperature coefficients. For most applications, a 10µF capacitor is sufficient. Selecting the Output Capacitor The output capacitor keeps output voltage ripple small and ensures loop stability. The output capacitor impedance should be low at the switching frequency. Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics are recommended for their low ESR characteristics. For most applications, a 22µF ceramic capacitor will be sufficient. PC Board Layout The high current paths (GND, IN and SW) should be placed very close to the device with short, direct and wide traces. The input capacitor needs to be as close as possible to the IN and GND pins. The external feedback resistors should be placed next to the FB pin. Keep the switch node traces short and away from the feedback network. External Bootstrap Diode It is recommended that an external bootstrap diode be added when the input voltage is no greater than 5V or the 5V rail is available in the system. This helps improve the efficiency of the regulator. The bootstrap diode can be a low cost one such as IN4148 or BAT54. 5V (External) or VIN (4.5 to 5V) BST 7 10nF MP2360 SW 2 Figure 2—External Bootstrap Diode This diode is also recommended for high duty cycle operation (when MP2360 Rev. 0.9 8/21/2006 VOUT >65%) applications.
