RT8057A 2.25MHz 1A Synchronous Step-Down Converter General Description Features The RT8057A is a high efficiency Pulse-Width-Modulated (PWM) step-down DC/DC converter, capable of delivering 1A output current over a wide input voltage range from 2.7V to 5.5V. The RT8057A is ideally suited for portable electronic devices that are powered from 1-cell Li-ion battery or from other power sources such as cellular phones, PDAs, hand-held devices, game console and related accessories. z The internal synchronous rectifier with low R DS(ON) dramatically reduces conduction loss at PWM mode. No external Schottky diode is required in practical applications. The RT8057A enters Low Dropout Mode when normal Pulse -Width Mode cannot provide regulated output voltage by continuously turning on the upper P-MOSFET. The RT8057A enters shut-down mode and consumes less than 1μA when the EN pin is pulled low. The switching ripple is easily smoothed-out by small package filtering elements due to a fixed operating frequency of 2.25MHz. z z z z z z z z z Applications z z z z z z The RT8057A is available in a small WDFN-6SL 2x2 package. 2.7V to 5.5V Wide Input Operation Range 2.25MHz Fixed-Frequency PWM Operation Up to 1A Output Current Up to 90% Efficiency 0.6V Reference Allows Low Output Voltage Internal Soft-Start No Schottky Diode Required Internal Compensation to Reduce External Components Low Dropout Operation : 100% Duty Cycle RoHS Compliant and Halogen Free Portable Instruments Game Console and Accessories Microprocessors and DSP Core Supplies Cellular Phones Wireless and DSL Modems PC Cards Pin Configurations (TOP VIEW) RT8057A (2) Pin 1 Orientation (2) : Quadrant 2, Follow EIA-481-D (For WDFN-6SL 2x2 Only) Package Type QW : WDFN-6SL 2x2 (W-Type) J5 : TSOT-23-5 Lead Plating System G : Green (Halogen Free and Pb Free) LX 1 NC FB 2 GND Ordering Information 3 7 6 GND 5 VIN EN 4 WDFN-6SL 2x2 LX FB 5 4 2 3 Note : Richtek products are : ` RoHS compliant and compatible with the current requirements of IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020. ` Suitable for use in SnPb or Pb-free soldering processes.

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. Output Voltage Setting The output voltage is set by an external resistive divider according to the following equation : R1 VOUT = VREF x (1+ ) R2 where VREF equals to 0.6V typical. The resistive divider allows the FB pin to sense a fraction of the output voltage as shown in Figure 1. VOUT The RT8057A is designed to operate down to an input supply voltage of 2.7V. One important consideration at low input supply voltages is that the RDS(ON) of the PChannel and N-Channel power switches increases. The user should calculate the power dissipation when the RT8057A is used at 100% duty cycle with low input voltages to ensure that thermal limits are not exceeded. Under Voltage Protection (UVP) The output voltage can be continuously monitored for under voltage protection. When the output voltage is less than 33% of its set voltage threshold after OCP occurs, the under voltage protection circuit will be triggered to auto re-softstart. Input Voltage Over Voltage protection (VIN OVP) R1 FB RT8057A Low Supply Operation When the input voltage (VIN) is higher than 6V, VIN OVP will be triggered and the IC stops switching. Once the input voltage drops below 6V, the IC will return to normal operation. R2 GND Figure 1. Setting the Output Voltage Output Over Voltage Protection (VOUT OVP) Soft-Start The RT8057A contains an internal soft-start clamp that gradually raises the clamp on the FB pin. 100% Duty Cycle Operation When the input supply voltage decreases toward the output voltage, the duty cycle increases toward the maximum on-time. Further reduction of the supply voltage forces the main switch to remain on for more than one cycle, eventually reaching 100% duty cycle. The output voltage will then be determined by the input voltage minus the voltage drop across the internal P-MOSFET and the inductor. When the output voltage exceeds more than 5% of the nominal reference voltage, the feedback loop forces the internal switches off within 50μs. Therefore, the output over voltage protection is automatically triggered by the loop. Short Circuit Protection When the output is shorted to ground, the inductor current decays very slowly during a single switching cycle. A current runaway detector is used to monitor inductor current. As current increases beyond the control of current loop, switching cycles will be skipped to prevent current runaway from occurring. Table 1.

To prevent large ripple voltage, a low ESR input capacitor sized for the maximum RMS current should be used. RMS current is given by : IRMS = IOUT(MAX) VOUT VIN VIN −1 VOUT 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 result in much difference. 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 series resistance (ESR) that is required to minimize voltage ripple and load step transients, as well as the amount of bulk capacitance that is necessary to ensure that the control loop is stable. Loop stability can be checked by viewing the load transient response. The output ripple, ΔVOUT, is determined by : ⎡ 1 ⎤ ΔVOUT ≤ ΔIL ⎢ESR + ⎥ 8fCOUT ⎦ ⎣ The output ripple is highest at maximum input voltage since ΔIL increases with input voltage. Multiple capacitors placed in parallel may be needed to meet the ESR and RMS current handling requirements. Dry tantalum, special polymer, aluminum electrolytic and ceramic capacitors are all available in surface mount packages. Special polymer capacitors offer very low ESR, but have lower capacitance density than other types. Tantalum capacitors have the highest capacitance density, but it is important to only use types that have been surge tested for use in switching power supplies. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors have significantly higher ESR, but can be used in cost-sensitive applications provided that consideration is given to ripple current ratings and long term reliability. Ceramic capacitors have excellent low ESR characteristics, but can have a high voltage coefficient and audible piezoelectric effects. The high Q of ceramic capacitors with trace inductance can also lead to significant ringing. Using Ceramic Input and Output Capacitors Higher value, 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 used at the 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 best, this ringing can couple to the output and be mistaken as loop instability. 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. Table 2.

The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC package, PCB layout, rate of surrounding airflow, and difference between junction and ambient temperature. DS8057A-00 March 2011 The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by the following formula : PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA) / θJA where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature, TA is the ambient temperature, and θJA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance. www.richtek.com 9 RT8057A For recommended operating condition specifications of the RT8057A, the maximum junction temperature is 125°C and TA is the ambient temperature. The junction to ambient thermal resistance, θJA, is layout dependent. For WDFN6SL 2x2 package, the thermal resistance, θJA, is 120°C/ W on a standard JEDEC 51-7 four-layer thermal test board. For TSOT-23-5 package, the thermal resistance, θJA, is 160°C/W on a standard JEDEC 51-7 four-layer thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C can be calculated by the following formula : PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (120°C/W) = 0.833W for WDFN-6SL 2x2 package Layout Considerations Follow the PCB layout guidelines for optimal performance of the RT8057A. ` ` LX node experiences high frequency voltage swing and should be kept within a small area. Keep all sensitive small-signal nodes away from the LX node to prevent stray capacitive noise pick up. ` Flood all unused areas on all layers with copper. Flooding with copper will reduce the temperature rise of power components. Connect the copper areas to any DC net (VIN, VOUT, GND, or any other DC rail in the system). PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (160°C/W) = 0.625W for TSOT-23-5 package he maximum power dissipation depends on the operating ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal resistance, θJA. For the RT8057A packages, the derating curve in Figure 1 allows the designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature on the maximum power dissipation.
