Note 3: The Absolute Maximum power dissipation depends on the ambient temperature and can be calculated using the formula P = (TJ – TA) / θJAwhere TJ is the junction temperature, TA is the ambient temperature and θJA is the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is highly application and board-layout dependent. In applications where high maximum power dissipation exists, special care must be paid to thermal dissipation issues in board design. Note 4: Internal thermal shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent damage. Thermal shutdown engages at TJ = 150°C (typ.) and disengages at TJ = 140°C (typ.). Note 5: The human-body model is 100 pF discharged through 1.5 kΩ. The machine model is a 200 pF capacitor discharged directly into each pin, MIL-STD-883 3015.7. Note 6: In applications where high power dissipation and/or poor package thermal resistance is present, the maximum ambient temperature may have to be derated. Maximum ambient temperature (TA-MAX) is dependent on the maximum operating junction temperature (TJ-MAX-OP = 125°C), the maximum power dissipation of the device in the application (PD-MAX) and the junction-to ambient thermal resistance of the part/package in the application (θJA), as given by the following equation: TA-MAX = TJ-MAX-OP – (θJA × PD-MAX). Note 7: Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) is taken from a thermal modeling result, performed under the conditions and guidelines set forth in the JEDEC standard JESD51-7. The test board is a 4-layer FR-4 board measuring 102 mm x 76 mm x 1.6 mm with a 2x1 array of thermal vias. The ground plane on the board is 50 mm x 50 mm. Thickness of copper layers are 36 µm / 18 µm / 18 µm / 36 µm (1.5 oz / 1 oz / 1 oz / 1.5 oz). Ambient temperature in simulation is 22°C, still air. Power dissipation is 1W. Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is highly application and board-layout dependent. In applications where high maximum power dissipation exists, special care must be paid to thermal dissipation issues in board design. The value of θJA of this product can vary significantly, depending on PCB material, layout and environmental conditions. In applications where high maximum power dissipation exists (high VIN, high IOUT), special care must be paid to thermal dissipation issues. For more information on these topics, please refer to Application Note 1112: Micro SMD Wafer Level Chip Scale Package and the Board Layout Considerations section of this datasheet. Note 8: All limits are guaranteed by design, test and/or statistical analysis. All electrical characteristics having room-temperature limits are tested during production with TJ = 25°C. All hot and cold limits are guaranteed by correlating the electrical characteristics to process and temperature variations and applying statistical process control. Note 9: Capacitors: Low-ESR Surface-Mount Ceramic Capacitors are (MLCCs) used in setting electrical characteristics Note 10: Guaranteed specifically by design. Note 11: Dropout voltage is the input-to-output voltage difference at which the output voltage is 100 mV below its nominal value. Other parameters are not guaranteed when the LDO is in dropout. This specification applies only when the output voltage is greater than 2.7V. Note 12: Quiescent currents for LDO1 through LDO5 do not include shared blocks such as the bandgap reference. Note 13: VIN for line transient is above the default 3.6V to allow for 400 mV of headroom from VIN to VOUT 11 www.national.com LP5553 Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings are conditions under which operation of the device is guaranteed. Operating Ratings do not imply guaranteed performance limits.

It operates cooperatively with processors using National Semiconductor’s Advanced Power Controller (APC) to provide Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) which drastically improves processor efficiencies compared to conventional power delivery methods. The LP5553 consists of two high efficiency switching DC/DC buck converters to supply two voltage scaling domains and five LDOs for supplying additional support circuitry. Unsupported Features LP5553 does not support optional SPMI commands: Extended Register Read and Write, Extended Register Read Long, Extended Register Write Long and MIPI Descriptor Block (DDB) Slave Read. LP5553 does not support any master specific commands. SPMI slaves are divided into Request Capable Slaves and Non-Request Capable Slaves. Request Capable Slaves have capability to initiate and send sequences to any other Master or Slave connected to the SPMI bus. LP5553 is Non-Request Capable Slave and thus it is not able to initiate sequences. Please refer to the SPMI specification for a complete description of all SPMI functionality. VOLTAGE SCALING The LP5553 is designed to be used in a voltage scaling system to lower the power dissipation of the system. By scaling supply voltage with the clock frequency of a processor, dramatic power savings can be achieved. Two types of voltage scaling are supported, dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) and adaptive voltage scaling (AVS). Both DC/DC 1 and 2 support AVS and DVS modes. DVS systems switch between precharacterized voltages, which are paired to clock frequencies used for frequency scaling in the processor. AVS systems track the processor performance and optimize the supply voltage to the required performance. AVS is a closed loop system that provides process and temperature compensation such that for any given processor, temperature, or clock frequency, the minimum supply voltage is delivered. SLAVE ADDRESSING DESCRIPTION SPMI supports up to 16 logical slaves in the same system. The LP5553 contains 2 logical slaves. The 3 MSBs of the LP5553’s slave address are set by the SA1, SA2 and SA3 pins. They are actively decoded by the LP5553 for every transaction. The LSB of the slave address is hardwired inside the LP5553. Slave ‘N’ will always be located at SA[0] = 0 and slave ‘N+1’ will always exist at SA[0] = 1. As an example, if we were to tie SA1 = SA3 = VDD and SA2 = GND in our system, then the LP5553’s slave ‘N’ would be located at SA[3:0] = 0xA and slave ‘N+1’ would be SA[3:0] = 0xB. SYSTEM POWER MANAGEMENT INTERFACE LP5553 is compliant with the SPMI specification low-speed device category and operates at bus speeds below 15 MHz. SPMI interface controls the various voltages, modes and states of the regulators in the LP5553. SPMI control of DC/ DC 1 and 2 facilitates PowerWise AVS and DVS operation. LP5553 implements two non-request capable logic slaves in addresses N and N+1. N is selectable with SA[3:0] pins. Both slaves in the LP5553 support the following SPMI commands as described in the SPMI specification: • Reset • Sleep • Shutdown • Wakeup • Register Read • Register Write • Register 0 Write • Authenticate Please see the SPMI specification for a complete description of the interface standard. CONTROL AND STATUS SIGNALS The LP5553 implements all 3 of the SPMI control and status signals. ENABLE and RESETN are inputs to the LP5553 that allow for power-up and power-down sequencing, as well as resetting the EMU to a known state. Both ENABLE and RESETN must be a logic ‘1’ during normal operation. PWROK is an indicator to the system that the LP5553 is in regulation and power is stable. It’s output is dependent upon the state of the two slave devices. Value of PWROK signal is logic ‘1’ if at least one of the slaves is in active or sleep state. See Table 1, “PWROK Value Per Slave State,” below for details. All 3 signals are asynchronous signals. TABLE 1. PWROK Value Per Slave State SLAVE (N) SLAVE (N+1) STARTUP ACTIVE SLEEP SHUTDOWN STARTUP 0 1 1 0 ACTIVE 1 1 1 1 SLEEP 1 1 1 1 SHUTDOWN 0 1 1 0 27 www.national.com LP5553 The 2-wire SPMI interface is composed of the SCLK and SDATA pins on the LP5553. SCLK is always an input to the LP5553 and should be driven by a SPMI master in the system. The SCLK clock rate can operate from 32 kHz to 15 MHz. SDATA is a bi-directional serial data line. It can drive a 50pF line and meet timing standards for a 15 MHz SPMI bus. Both signals are referenced to the voltage present at VO2, the LDO2 output voltage. Both signals contain an internal pulldown resistor of ~1 MΩ, in accordance with the SPMI specification. LP5553 Operation LP5553 push-pull output mode will reference the high-side to the voltage of LDO2. The 3 GPO pins are guaranteed to sink and source 1mA of current. GENERAL PURPOSE OUTPUTS The LP5553 contains 3 digital output pins that can be used as the system designer sees fit. By default, they are configured as open-drain outputs, outputting a logic ‘0’. They can be changed to a push-pull CMOS output by clearing Slave ‘N’, R13[3]. In the open-drain configuration, they can be referenced to any voltage less than the VDD of the LP5553. The SLAVE OPERATING STATES Each slave in the LP5553 has four operating states: Startup, Active, Sleep and Shutdown. (Figure 1) 30040645 FIGURE 1. LP5553 Slave State Diagram The Startup state is the default state for both slaves after reset. All regulators are off and PWROK output is a ‘0’. The device will move to the Active state when the external ENABLE and RESETN signals are both pulled high. After the state transition completes, both slaves will be in the Active state, but each slave will maintain its own independent state thereafter. The default, factory-programmed power-up sequence of the LP5553 can be seen in Figure 2. From the global ENABLE of the chip, there is ~80 µs of time for powering on and stabilizing internal support circuitry. Once this time has expired, the startup time slots begin. Table 2 shows the time slots that each regulator begins in. Note that for the switchers, there is an additional ~75 µs of set-up time from the beginning of the time slot until the soft-start ramp begins. 30040606 FIGURE 2. LP5553 Startup Timing www.national.com 28 LP5553 TABLE 2. Factory Programmed Startup Time Slots Time slot Start time (µs) Regulator(s) 0 0 LDO2 1 32 LDO5/AVS1 2 64 LDO1/AVS2 3 96 LDO3 4 128 LDO4 In the Active state, all regulators that are enabled are on and their outputs are defined by their programmed register values. If the Active state has been reached from the Startup state, the regulators will be programmed to their default value. In the Active state, the SPMI master has complete control over the LP5553’s operation. The PWROK output is ‘1’ if either slave is in this state. The Sleep state is entered by issuing the Sleep command on the SPMI bus. The core regulator of the addressed slave and the associated memory LDO will both respond to the Sleep command. For the first 32 µs after the command is decoded, the core regulator will transition to its zero-code value of 0.6V and the LDO will move to its POR value of 1.25V. After the 32 µs has expired, the core regulator will be turned off and the LDO will transition to its memory retention value as programmed in register R2. See Figure 3. LDO1, LDO2 and LDO5 are unaffected by the Sleep command and will maintain their programmed values. They may be turned off manually, if desired. The LP5553 will still respond to all SPMI traffic as long as LDO2 remains active. 30040665 FIGURE 4. Wakeup Behavior of Core and Memory The Shutdown command will place the addressed slave in the Shutdown state. This command may be issued to any slave in either the Active or Sleep states. All regulators within that state will turn off. The LP5553 holds out one exception to this rule. LDO1, LDO2 and LDO5 act as a shared resource between the two slave devices in the EMU. Therefore, placing just slave ‘N’ into Shutdown will not turn off these regulators even though their registers exist within that space. Slave ‘N’ can be in the Shutdown state, but as long as Slave ‘N+1’ is still in either Active or Sleep states, these shared LDOs will remain on and SPMI traffic will be decoded. When only one of the slaves is in the Shutdown state, it can be started up by sending the Reset command to that slave. Once the Shutdown command has been sent to both slaves, all regulators on the LP5553 will be turned off. The PWROK signal will be ‘0’ if both slaves are in the Shutdown state. The only way to transition away from the Shutdown state is by disabling or resetting the LP5553. By taking the ENABLE pin or the RESETN pin low, the LP5553 will transition to the Startup state. Power-down sequencing is not actively managed by the LP5553 logic, but can be handled by turning off regulators in the desired order within the application, prior to Shutdown. PWM/BURST-PWM OPERATION The switching regulators in the LP5553 have two modes of operation, pulse width modulation (PWM) and “Burst”-PWM. In PWM, the converter switches at 3.6 MHz. Each period can be split into two cycles. During the first cycle, the high-side switch is on and the low-side switch is off. During this cycle, the inductor current is rising. In the second cycle, the highside switch is off and the low-side switch is on causing the inductor current to decrease. The output ripple voltage is lowest in PWM mode. As the load current decreases, the converter efficiency becomes worse due to switching losses. The LP5553 will automatically transition to Burst mode at light load current levels. The exact transition point is dependent upon the present operating environment and the mode assessment is constantly evaluated. The transition is approximately equal to: 30040664 FIGURE 3. Sleep Behavior of Core and Memory A slave may return to the Active state by issuing the Wakeup command. This will result in the core regulator turning on after a ~75 µs delay and a soft-start ramp. It will wake up at its maximum value of 1.235V. The associated memory LDO will go to its default POR value of 1.25V until the core has reached the end of its soft-start period and then will transition to its programmed configuration (i.e., either tracking the core or to the value programmed in R1). See Figure 4. The PWROK output is ‘1’ if either slave is in this state. 30040666 In this mode, the output voltage will be allowed to coast with no switching action by the regulator. When the output voltage dips to 1% below nominal, the switches are enabled, the voltage is boosted back up to the programmed value and the 29 www.national.com LP5553 coast process repeats itself. If the user desires tighter control of the output voltage, at the expense of light-load efficiency, the switchers can be commanded to stay in PWM-only mode by setting bit 0 of R10 in the slave’s registers. not go into dropout or SPMI communication will most likely not be possible. If it is not desirable to use this regulator in the system, the user can turn this regulator off by setting bit 4 of R10 in Slave ‘N’ during system initialization while back-driving the required I/O voltage onto the pin. CURRENT LIMITING A current limit feature exists for all regulators to help protect the LP5553 and external components during overload conditions. The switcher's current limit feature will trip around 1.2A (typ). Once the fault has occurred and current limit has been entered, the switcher will not resume operation until the output current has decreased to a hysteretic low-level set point. Normal operation will proceed after the fault has been cleared. Likewise, the LDOs all implement current limit and will turn off their pass element when their trip point is reached. Please refer to the Electrical Characteristics section for details. TRACKING, SLEW RATE LIMITING AND LOW IQ BITS There are 3 bits in each slave’s R13 register that determine the performance and operational behavior of the VCOREx and VO3/VO4 outputs. Their significance and interaction is described below. The Low IQ bit setting in R13, bit 0, of each slave allows the selection of a lower IQ bias point at the expense of decreased output current capability for VO3 and VO4. At reset, the default setting is high IQ mode (i.e., bit 0 is cleared) which results in a 50 mA output capability for the associated LDO. If bit 0 is set, the quiescent current draw of the part will decrease, but the output current capability of the associated LDO will drop to 5 mA. Setting VO3 and VO4 up for low I Q mode is useful in situations where just a trickle of current is required, such as when maintaining some type of low-power memory. The Tracking bit, bit 1 in R13, determines whether or not the LDO3 voltage will track the VCORE1 voltage in Slave ‘N’. Slave ‘N+1’ has its own tracking bit which will determine whether LDO4 tracks VCORE2. Each slave device can be independently configured to tracking or independent mode. When set to operate independently, LDO3 and LDO4 will maintain a voltage output equal to the programmed value of R1 while in the Active state. When set to operate in tracking mode, LDO3 and LDO4 will track the output voltage of their associated switcher, attempting to maintain approximately a 25 mV positive offset. There is some interaction between the Low IQ and Tracking bits based on the state of the slave device and that is detailed in the following table: SOFT START Both switching regulators implement a digital soft-start feature to limit in-rush current during the Startup to Active state transition. The voltage output of the switchers will be gradually increased to the default value of 1.235V. An unloaded switcher output will reach its final value in 120 µs (typ.) while a fully loaded switcher – 800 mA -- will reach its output in 135 µs (typ). Because the LP5553 uses voltage increments to handle soft-start, its turn-on time is less dependent on output capacitance and load current than regulators that gradually increase current limit to implement soft-start. LDO2 The on-board LDO2 regulator has special significance to the LP5553. All digital data on the SCLK, SDATA and the GPOx pins while in push-pull mode, is referenced to this voltage. This regulator is used internally to power the I/O drivers. As such, this regulator must be on in order to communicate with the LP5553. The user should ensure that this regulator does TABLE 3. Tracking, IQ Bit, Slave State Truth Table Input Output Tracking, R13[1] Low IQ, R13[0] State 0 0 Active 50 mA 0 0 Sleep 50 mA 0 1 Active 5 mA 0 1 Sleep 5 mA 1 0 Active 50 mA 1 0 Sleep 50 mA 1 1 Active 50 mA 1 1 Sleep 5 mA the Slew Rate Limiting bit while not in tracking mode. Setting all 3 bits will result in a system which has the following properties: 1. The tracking LDO will maintain positive offset from VCOREx in Active state. 2. Tracking LDO will be 50mA output capable in Active state and 5mA capable in Sleep state. The final bit, the Slew Rate Limiting bit (R13[2]), places a limit on how fast the output voltage of the VCOREx regulators can change. If slew rate limiting is not enabled while in tracking mode (i.e., R13[2] is cleared), then the switcher will achieve its new programmed value faster than the tracking LDO can change its output. By setting the Slew Rate Limiting bit, the LP5553 will attempt to keep the positive offset of the tracking LDO in relation to the VCOREx output. For AVS systems, the expected configuration is to have all 3 bits, R13[2:0] set to ‘1’. It generally will not make sense to set www.national.com LDO3/LDO4 Capability 30 SWITCHERS Input Capacitors The input capacitor to a switching regulator supplies the AC switching current drawn from the switching action of the internal power FETs. The input current of a buck converter is discontinuous, so the ripple current supplied by the input capacitor is large. The input capacitor must be rated to handle this current: Inductor A 1µH inductor should be used for the switchers' output filter. The inductor should be rated to handle the peak load current plus the ripple current: 30040648 The power dissipated in the input capacitor is given by: 30040650 30040649 Suggested Inductors and Their Suppliers Model Vendor Dimensions LxWxH (mm) DCR (Typical) LPS3010–102 Coilcraft 3.0 x 3.0 x 1.0 85 mΩ LQM31PN1R0MC0 muRata 3.2 x 1.6 x 0.5 140 mΩ PCB interconnect, depending upon the frequency of the ripple current. Ceramic capacitors are predominantly used in portable systems and have very low ESR and should remain capacitive given good PCB layout practices. The switcher peak-to-peak output voltage ripple in steady state can be calculated as: Output Capacitors The switchers in the LP5553 are designed to be used with 10 µF of capacitance in the output filter. It is recommended that a 10 µF ceramic capacitor, rated to handle at least 10V and comprised of X5R dielectric material, be chosen. The output capacitor of a switching regulator absorbs the AC ripple current from the inductor and provides the initial response to a load transient. The ripple voltage at the output of the converters is the product of the ripple current flowing through the output capacitor and the impedance of the capacitor. The impedance of the capacitor can be dominated by capacitive, resistive, or inductive elements within the capacitor or the 30040662 Suggested Switcher Output Capacitors and Their Suppliers Voltage Case Size (Height) GRM219R61A106KE44 Model muRata Vendor 10 µF Value Ceramic, X5R Type 10V 0805 (0.85 mm) LMK212BJ106KD Taiyo Yuden 10 µF Ceramic, X5R 10V 0805 (0.85 mm) will decrease with increasing frequency and DC bias point and will generally vary with temperature. A typical 6.3V, 10 µF, 0603 capacitor may only be providing 4 - 5 µF of capacitance when used as the output capacitor in the switching regulators’ loop filter. It is highly recommended that measurements be done on your selected capacitor(s) to ensure you have the proper amount of capacitance. A NOTE ABOUT CAPACITORS Capacitors are typically specified by their manufacturers as a particular value +/-X%. These specified values are only valid for a particular test condition that is often not applicable to the final application circuit. If you were to take a ceramic 10 µF capacitor in 0805 package and measure it with an LCR meter, a typical result would be around 7 µF. This is before you even insert the capacitor into the application circuit. Capacitance 31 www.national.com LP5553 The input capacitor must be rated to handle both the RMS current and the dissipated power. A 10 µF ceramic capacitor, rated to handle at least 10V, is recommended for each PVDDx/PGNDx pair. Application Hints LP5553 as similarly to the example artwork as possible. Everything on the outer ring of the micro SMD should be routed on the component layer while microvias are used to escape the remaining signals on the adjacent layer. The layout should be done in the following order to ensure best performance: 1. Switchers 2. System Power Management Interface (SPMI) 3. Input Caps 4. LDO Output Caps 5. Any remaining layout For good performance of the circuit, it is essential to place the input and output capacitors as close as physically possible to the associated pin. Sensitive components should be placed far from those components with high switching currents. It’s a good practice to minimize high-current and switching current paths. LDOs Input Capacitors While not mandatory, it is highly recommended that some input capacitance be provided for the DVDDx and AVDDx pins. Typical values may be in the 0.1 - 1.0 µF range. These capacitors will provide bypass for the LP5553 control electronics and LDOs. Output Capacitors The output capacitor of an LDO sets a low frequency pole and a high frequency zero in the control loop of an LDO, as well as providing the initial response for a load transient. The capacitance and the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the capacitor must be within a specified range to meet stability requirements. The LDOs in the LP5553 are designed to be used with ceramic output capacitors. The following table can be used to select suitable output capacitors: LDO Output Capacitor Selection Guide Output Capacitance Range (Recommended Typical Value) DC/DC Buck Switching Regulators Due to the high switching currents and accuracy of the LP5553, this is the most crucial aspect of the layout. And because the switchers are almost a complete mirror image of one another on the part, the design is most easily placed symmetrically about the part. The 10µF input capacitors should be placed first, as near to PVDDx and PGNDx as possible. PVDDx (pins A6 and A1) are the voltage rails for the high-side power FETs. PGNDx (pins A4 and A3) are the return paths for the low-side power FETs. As seen with C3 and C4 in the artwork, these components have their associated pads very near the pins that they will decouple. These capacitors are important in sourcing charge during switching events. The 10µF output capacitors are the next components to be placed. They can be seen in the artwork as C1 and C2. Best performance of the LP5553 will be realized by maintaining tight physical coupling of the grounds of the input capacitor, output capacitor and PGND pin for each switcher. By placing the input/output capacitors as depicted, a channel is created that will allow routing the switching node out to the inductor between the pads of the input and output capacitors. The output magnetics should be placed in a way that best allows the switching node, output node and supplied load to be routed easily. The inductors and associated connections, are the least sensitive to layout variation. Note that the evaluation board contains a 0-ohm series resistor between the switching node and the inductor. This is included as a means to more easily make measurements on the evaluation board and is NOT required in the application circuit. Once placement of these components has been completed, the associated wiring/routing should be done. The switching nodes should be routed to their associated inductors. Next, a ground polygon and/or plane should be used to tie all capacitor grounds together and to the PGNDs. An example of this is shown in the board artwork. Here we have a pour on the top layer that connects everything together and we stitched it into the ground plane to maintain the same potential at both points. There will be quite a bit of switching current in this area so it should be physically isolated from other sensitive circuitry. Once the ground connections are in place, proceed to routing the VIN connections. Finally, the FBx and RGND contacts should be routed. The RGND should tie into a quiet location that will track the potential of the PGND pins. On the evaluation board layout, this connection was made at the edge of the ground polygon on the top layer. Evaluation board contains a 0-ohm series resistor (R13) on the RGND line. This ESR Range LDO1 1.0 - 20 µF (2.2 µF) 5 mΩ - 500 mΩ LDO2 2.0 - 20 µF (4.7 µF) 5 mΩ - 500 mΩ LDO3 0.7 - 2.2 µF (1.0 µF) 5 mΩ - 500 mΩ LDO4 0.7 - 2.2 µF (1.0 µF) 5 mΩ - 500 mΩ LDO5 2.0 - 20 µF (4.7 µF) 5 mΩ - 500 mΩ Dropout Voltages All linear regulators are subject to dropout. Dropout Voltage is the minimum voltage required across the regulator (VIN VOUT) to maintain a constant, specified output voltage. The LP5553 has a VIN range of 2.7V – 4.8V. VO1, VO3 and VO4 cannot be programmed to a level that would make dropout a factor. However, VO2 and VO5 can reach as high as 3.3V on their outputs. Both of those regulators have a dropout voltage of 260mV (MAX). To ensure proper operation of those regulators, the user should ensure that VIN ≥ (VOx-PROGRAMMED + 260 mV). If a regulator does go into dropout, the output voltage will start to track the input: VO = VIN - VDROPOUT. Also, the PSRR will go to zero, meaning any noise at the input will be seen at the output. BOARD LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS PC board layout is an important part of DC-DC converter design. Poor board layout can disrupt the performance of a DCDC converter and surrounding circuitry by contributing to EMI, ground bounce and resistive voltage loss in the traces. These can send erroneous signals to the DC-DC converter IC, resulting in poor regulation or instability. Good layout for the LP5553 can be implemented by following design rules below. See Figure 5 through Figure 17 for a good example of proper layout (LP5553 Evaluation Board). It is also recommended to reference AN-1112 for information on the micro SMD package and its requirements. The evaluation board is comprised of four layers. From top to bottom they are: 1. Top layer, component side 2. Ground plane 3. VIN plane 4. Bottom layer Being a very high performance EMU in a small physical package requires that some care be taken when placing the IC into the application circuit. The breakout of the IC should be done www.national.com 32 evaluation board, this includes capacitors C5 and C6. They are general purpose caps and are tied directly to the VIN plane on the board. It is not mandatory to include additional bypass caps, however it is recommended. Low impedance connections are required to allow the capacitors to function at their peak performance. Regardless of any decoupling capacitors, EVERY VIN CONNECTION SHOULD HAVE ITS OWN ROUTING FROM THE SOURCE. Vias and/or traces should NOT be shared amongst VIN pins. The PVDDx pins especially should have their own separate supply connections. SPMI Routing The System Power Management Interface SCLK and SDATA lines should then be routed to the appropriate master in the system. If this is a multi-master and/or multi-slave system, care should be taken in matching the trace lengths of all segments of the SPMI bus. Additionally, the designer must ensure that the electrical characteristics of the interconnect do not violate the restrictions in the SPMI specification. LDO Output Capacitors This step involves placing the output capacitors of the LDO regulators. If an LDO will not be used, it is not necessary to place its output capacitor in the design. These capacitors should be placed as physically close to the LP5553 IC as possible. Again, use low-impedance connections to the output capacitors for best performance. Input Capacitors Any additional input decoupling capacitors that are part of the design should now be placed and routed. In the case of the 33 www.national.com LP5553 is not required in the application circuit. The FB lines should closely match the RGND routing to reduce the inductive loop of this pair. The FB and RGND lines make up a highside and low-side sense connection to maintain the accuracy of the switcher outputs. The FB line should cross the switching trace as close to perpendicular as possible and tie into the output node of the regulator. Low impedance power connections should be maintained for all of these connections. www.national.com 34 FIGURE 5.
