External component selection is determined by the load requirement, selecting L first and then Cin and Cout. The selection of Cout is driven by the required effective series resistance (ESR). Typically, once the ESR requirement for Cout has been met, the RMS current rating generally far exceeds the I RIPPLE(P-P) requirement. The output ripple △Vout is determined by: Inductor Selection For most applications, the value of the inductor will fall in the range of 1μH to 4.7μH. Its value is chosen based on the desired ripple current. Large value inductors lower ripple current and small value inductors result in higher ripple currents. Higher V IN or Vout also increases the ripple current as shown in equation 1. A reasonable starting point for setting ripple current is △I L = 400mA (40% of 1A). DIL = 1 æ VOUT ö VOUT ç 1÷ f L VIN ø ( )( ) è 1 ö æ VVOUT @VIL ç ESR+ ÷ 8fCOUT ø è Where f = operating frequency, C OUT =output capacitance and Δ I L = ripple current in the inductor. For a fixed output voltage, the output ripple is highest at maximum input voltage since Δ I L increases with input voltage. (1) 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. Using ceramic capacitors can achieve very low output ripple and small circuit size. 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 1.4A rated inductor should be enough for most applications (1A + 400mA). For better efficiency, choose a low DC-resis tance inductor. Vo 1.2V 1.5V 1.8V 2.5V 3.3V L 2.2μH 2.2μH 2.2μH 4.7μH 4.7μH When choosing the input and output ceramic capacitors, choose the X5R or X7R dielectric formulations. These dielectrics have the best temperature and voltage charac teristics of all the ceramics for a given value and size. C IN and C OUT Selection Thermal consideration In continuous mode, the source current of the top MOSFET is a square wave of duty cycle Vout/Vin. To prevent large voltage transients, a low ESR input capacitor sized for the maximum RMS current must be used. The maximum RMS capacitor current is given by: é VOUT (VIN - VOUT )ùû CIN required IRMS @ IOMAX ë VIN Thermal protection limits power dissipation in the PAM2309. When the junction temperature exceeds 150°C, the OTP (Over Temperature Protection) starts the thermal shutdown and turns the pass transistor off. The pass transistor resumes operation after the junction temperature drops below 120°C. 1 2 For continuous operation, the junction temperature should be maintained below 125°C. The power dissipation is defined as: This formula has a maximum at V IN =2Vout, w h e r e I RMS= I OUT/ 2 . T h i s s i m p l e w o r s t - c a s e condition is com monly used for design because even significant deviations do not offer much relief. Note that the capacitor manufacturer's ripple current ratings are often based on 2000 hours of life. This makes it advisable to further derate the capacitor, or choose a capacitor rated at a higher temperature than required. Consult the manufac turer if there is any question. PD =IO 2 VORDSONH + (VIN -VO )RDSONL VIN + (t SW FSIO +IQ )VIN I Q is the step-down converter quiescent current. The term tsw is used to estimate the full load step-down converter switching losses. Power Analog Microelectronics , Inc www.poweranalog.com 08/2009 Rev 1.1 10 PAM2309 1A Step-Down DC-DC Converter Table 1: Resistor selection for output voltage setting For the condition where the step-down converter is in dropout at 100% duty cycle, the total device dis sipation reduces to: PD =IO 2RDSONH +IQ VIN Since R DS(ON), quiescent current, and switching losses all vary with input voltage, the total losses should be investigated over the complete input voltage range. The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of IC package, PCB layout, the rate of surrounding airflow and temperature difference between junction and ambient. The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by the following formula: PD = Vo R1 R2 1.2V 330k 240k 1.5V 360k 180k 1.8V 470k 180k 2.5V 510k 130k 3.3V 680k 120k 100% Duty Cycle Operation As the input voltage approaches the output voltage, the converter turns the P-chan nel transistor continuously on. In this mode the output voltage is equal to the input voltage minus the voltage drop across the P - channel transistor: TJ(MAX) -TA θJA Where TJ(max) is the maximum allowable junction temperature 125°C.T A is the ambient temperature and θ JA is the thermal resistance from the junction to the ambient. Based on the standard JEDEC for a two layers thermal test board, the thermal resistance θ JA of SOT23-5 package is 250°C/W, DFN2X2 102°C/W, and QFN3X3 68°C/W, respectively. The maximum power dissipation at T A = 25°C can be calculated by following formula: V OUT = V IN – I LOAD (R dson + R L) where R dson = P-channel switch ON resistance, I L O A D = Output current, R L = Inductor DC resistance UVLO and Soft-Start The reference and the circuit remain reset until the VIN crosses its UVLO threshold. SOT-25 package: The PAM2309 has an internal soft-start circuit that limits the in-rush current during start-up. This prevents possible voltage drops of the input voltage and eliminates the output voltage overshoot. The soft-start acts as a digital circuit to increase the switch current in several steps to the P-channel current limit (1500mA). P D=(125°C-25°C)/250°C/W=0.4W DFN2*2 package: P D=(125°C-25°C)/102°C/W=0.984W QFN3*3 package: Short Circuit Protection P D=(125°C-25°C)/68°C/W=1.47W The switch peak current is limited cycle-by-cycle to a typical value of 1500mA. In the event of an output voltage short circuit, the device operates with a frequency of 400kHz and minimum duty cycle, therefore the average input current is typically 200mA. Setting the Output Voltage The internal reference is 0.5V (Typical). The output voltage is calculated as below: æ R1 ö VO=0.5×1+ ç R2 ÷ è ø Thermal Shutdown When the die temperature exceeds 150°C, a reset occurs and the reset remains until the temperature decrease to 120°C, at which time the circuit can be restarted. The output voltage is given by Table 1.

These items are also illustrated graphically in Figure 1. Check the following in your layout: 1. The power traces, consisting of the GND trace, the SW trace and the VIN trace should be kept short, direct and wide. 2. Does the V FB pin connect directly to the feedback resistors? The resistive divider R1/R2 must be con nected between the (+) plate of C OUT and ground. 3. Does the (+) plate of CIN connect to VIN as closely as possible? This capacitor provides the AC current to the internal power MOSFETs. 4. Keep the switching node, SW, away from the sensitive VFB node. 5. Keep the (–) plates of C IN and C OUT as close as possible.
