AOZ1056
Detailed Description
The AOZ1056 is a current-mode step down regulator with
integrated high side PMOS switch and a low side freewheeling Schottky diode. It operates from a 4.5V to 16V
input voltage range and supplies up to 2A of load
current. The duty cycle can be adjusted from 6% to 100%
allowing a wide range of output voltages. Features
include enable control, under voltage lockout, external
soft-start, output over-voltage protection, over-current
protection and thermal shut down.
The AOZ1056 is available in an SO-8 package.
Enable and Soft Start
The AOZ1056 has an external soft start feature to limit
in-rush current and ensure the output voltage ramps up
smoothly to regulation voltage. A soft start process begins
when the input voltage rises to 4.0V and voltage on EN
pin is HIGH. In soft start process, a 5µA internal current
source charges the external capacitor at SS. As the SS
capacitor is charged, the voltage at SS rises. The SS
voltage clamps the reference voltage of the error amplifier, therefore output voltage rising time follows the SS pin
voltage. With the slow ramping up output voltage, the
inrush current can be prevented. For proper start-up and
operation of the IC, the minimum external soft-start
capacitor required is 780pF, and the corresponding
soft-start time is about 100µs. The graph below shows the
soft-start capacitance and the corresponding soft-start
time.
A simple equation can also be used to choose the softstart capacitor according to the desired soft-start time:
Css ( nf ) ≈ 6.9 × Tss ( ms )
Soft-Start Time (ms)
16
The voltage on EN pin must be above 2.0V to enable the
AOZ1056. When voltage on EN pin falls below 0.6V, the
AOZ1056 is disabled. If an application circuit requires the
AOZ1056 to be disabled, an open drain or open collector
circuit should be used to interface to the EN pin.
Steady-State Operation
Under steady-state conditions, the converter operates in
fixed frequency and Continuous-Conduction Mode (CCM).
The AOZ1056 integrates an internal P-MOSFET as the
high-side switch. Inductor current is sensed by amplifying
the voltage drop across the drain to source of the high
side power MOSFET. Output voltage is divided down by
the external voltage divider at the FB pin. The difference
of the FB pin voltage and reference is amplified by the
internal transconductance error amplifier. The error voltage, which shows on the COMP pin, is compared against
the current signal, which is sum of inductor current signal
and ramp compensation signal, at PWM comparator
input. If the current signal is less than the error voltage,
the internal high-side switch is on. The inductor current
flows from the input through the inductor to the output.
When the current signal exceeds the error voltage, the
high-side switch is off. The inductor current is freewheeling through the internal Schottky diode to output.
The AOZ1056 uses a P-Channel MOSFET as the high
side switch. It saves the bootstrap capacitor normally
seen in a circuit which is using an NMOS switch. It allows
100% turn-on of the upper switch to achieve linear
regulation mode of operation. The minimum voltage drop
from VIN to VO is the load current x DC resistance of
MOSFET + DC resistance of buck inductor. It can be
calculated by equation below:

Output Voltage Programming
Output voltage can be set by feeding back the output to
the FB pin with a resistor divider network. In the
application circuit shown in Figure 1. The resistor divider
network includes R1 and R2. Usually, a design is started
by picking a fixed R2 value and calculating the required
R1 with equation below.

The AOZ1056 has internal short circuit protection to
protect itself from catastrophic failure under output short
circuit conditions. The FB pin voltage is proportional to the
output voltage. Whenever FB pin voltage is below 0.2V,
the short circuit protection circuit is triggered. As a result,
the converter is shut down and hiccups. The converter will
start up via a soft start once the short circuit condition
disappears. In short circuit protection mode, the inductor
average current is greatly reduced.
Output Over Voltage Protection (OVP)
The AOZ1056 monitors the feedback voltage: when the
feedback voltage is higher than 960mV, it immediately
turns-off the PMOS to protect the output voltage overshoot at fault condition. When feedback voltage is lower
than 860mV, the PMOS is allowed to turn on in the next
cycle.
UVLO
The combination of R1 and R2 should be large enough to
avoid drawing excessive current from the output, which
will cause power loss.
Since the switch duty cycle can be as high as 100%, the
maximum output voltage can be set as high as the input
voltage minus the voltage drop on upper PMOS and
inductor.
Protection Features
The AOZ1056 has multiple protection features to prevent
system circuit damage under abnormal conditions.
Over Current Protection (OCP)
The sensed inductor current signal is also used for over
current protection. Since the AOZ1056 employs peak
current mode control, the COMP pin voltage is
proportional to the peak inductor current. The COMP
pin voltage is limited to be between 0.4V and 2.5V
internally. The peak inductor current is automatically
limited cycle by cycle.
The cycle-by-cycle current limit threshold is set between
2.5A and 3.6A. When the load current reaches the
current limit threshold, the cycle-by-cycle current limit
circuit turns off the high side switch immediately to
Rev. 1.2 September 2008
terminate the current duty cycle. The inductor current stop
rising. The cycle-by-cycle current limit protection directly
limits inductor peak current. The average inductor current
is also limited due to the limitation on peak inductor current. When cycle-by-cycle current limit circuit is triggered,
the output voltage drops as the duty cycle decreases.
A UVLO circuit monitors the input voltage. When the input
voltage exceeds 4V, the converter starts operation. When
input voltage falls below 3.7V, the converter will stop
switching.
Thermal Protection
An internal temperature sensor monitors the junction
temperature. It shuts down the internal control circuit and
high side PMOS if the junction temperature exceeds
150°C. The regulator will restart automatically under the
control of soft-start circuit when the junction temperature
decreases to 100°C.
Application Information
The basic AOZ1056 application circuit is shown in
Figure 1. Component selection is explained below.
Input Capacitor
The input capacitor (C1 in Figure 1) must be connected
to the VIN pin and PGND pin of the AOZ1056 to maintain
steady input voltage and filter out the pulsing input
current. A small decoupling capacitor (Cd in Figure 1),
usually 1µF, should be connected to the VIN pin and
AGND pin for stable operation of the AOZ1056. The
voltage rating of input capacitor must be greater than
maximum input voltage + ripple voltage.

The input ripple voltage can be approximated by equation
below:
VO ⎞ VO
IO
⎛
ΔV IN = ----------------- × ⎜ 1 – ---------⎟ × --------V IN⎠ V IN
f × C IN ⎝
Since the input current is discontinuous in a buck
converter, the current stress on the input capacitor is
another concern when selecting the capacitor. For a buck
circuit, the RMS value of input capacitor current can be
calculated by:
The inductor is used to supply constant current to output
when it is driven by a switching voltage. For given input
and output voltage, inductance and switching frequency
together decide the inductor ripple current, which is,

VO ⎛
VO ⎞
- ⎜ 1 – --------⎟
I CIN_RMS = I O × -------V IN ⎝
V IN⎠
if let m equal the conversion ratio:
VO
-------- = m
V IN
The relationship between the input capacitor RMS current
and voltage conversion ratio is calculated and shown in
Figure 2 on the next page. It can be seen that when VO is
half of VIN, CIN is under the worst current stress. The
worst current stress on CIN is 0.5 x IO.
High inductance gives low inductor ripple current but
requires larger size inductor to avoid saturation. Low
ripple current reduces inductor core losses. It also
reduces RMS current through inductor and switches,
which results in less conduction loss. Usually, peak to
peak ripple current on inductor is designed to be 20%
to 40% of output current.
When selecting the inductor, make sure it is able to
handle the peak current without saturation even at the
highest operating temperature.
The inductor takes the highest current in a buck circuit.
The conduction loss on inductor needs to be checked for
thermal and efficiency requirements.

Surface mount inductors in different shape and styles are

Figure 2. ICIN vs. Voltage Conversion Ratio
For reliable operation and best performance, the input
capacitors must have current rating higher than ICIN_RMS
at worst operating conditions. Ceramic capacitors are
preferred for input capacitors because of their low ESR
and high ripple current rating. Depending on the
application circuits, other low ESR tantalum capacitor
or aluminum electrolytic capacitor may also be used.
When selecting ceramic capacitors, X5R or X7R type
dielectric ceramic capacitors are preferred for their better
temperature and voltage characteristics. Note that the
ripple current rating from capacitor manufacturers is
based on certain amount of life time. Further de-rating
may be necessary for practical design requirement.
Output Capacitor
The output capacitor is selected based on the DC output
voltage rating, output ripple voltage specification and
ripple current rating.
The selected output capacitor must have a higher rated
voltage specification than the maximum desired output
voltage including ripple. De-rating needs to be considered
for long term reliability.
Output ripple voltage specification is another important
factor for selecting the output capacitor. In a buck
converter circuit, output ripple voltage is determined by
inductor value, switching frequency, output capacitor
value and ESR. It can be calculated by the equation
below:
1
ΔV O = ΔI L × ⎛ ESR CO + -------------------------⎞
⎝
8×f×C ⎠

AOZ1056
The zero is a ESR zero due to output capacitor and its
ESR. It is can be calculated by:
where;
CO is output capacitor value, and
ESRCO is the Equivalent Series Resistor of output capacitor.
When a low ESR ceramic capacitor is used as the output
capacitor, the impedance of the capacitor at the switching
frequency dominates. Output ripple is mainly caused by
capacitor value and inductor ripple current. The output
ripple voltage calculation can be simplified to:
1
ΔV O = ΔI L × ------------------------8×f×C
If the impedance of ESR at switching frequency
dominates, the output ripple voltage is mainly decided
by capacitor ESR and inductor ripple current. The output
ripple voltage calculation can be further simplified to:
ΔV O = ΔI L × ESR CO
For lower output ripple voltage across the entire operating
temperature range, X5R or X7R dielectric type of ceramic,
or other low ESR tantalum are recommended to be used
as output capacitors.
In a buck converter, the output capacitor current is
continuous. The RMS current of output capacitor is
decided by the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current.
It can be calculated by:
ΔI L
I CO_RMS = ---------12
CO is the output filter capacitor,
RL is load resistor value, and
The compensation design is actually to shape the
converter close loop transfer function to get desired gain
and phase. Several different types of compensation
network can be used for the AOZ1056. For most cases, a
series capacitor and resistor network connected to the
COMP pin sets the pole-zero and is adequate for a stable
high-bandwidth control loop.
In the AOZ1056, FB pin and COMP pin are the inverting
input and the output of internal transconductance error
amplifier. A series R and C compensation network
connected to COMP provides one pole and one zero.
The pole is:
G EA
f P2 = ------------------------------------------2π × C C × G VEA
where;
GEA is the error amplifier transconductance, which is 200 x 10-6
A/V,
GVEA is the error amplifier voltage gain, which is 500 V/V, and
Usually, the ripple current rating of the output capacitor
is a smaller issue because of the low current stress.
When the buck inductor is selected to be very small
and inductor ripple current is high, output capacitor
could be overstressed.
Loop Compensation
The AOZ1056 employs peak current mode control for
easy use and fast transient response. Peak current mode
control eliminates the double pole effect of the output L&C
filter. It greatly simplifies the compensation loop design.
With peak current mode control, the buck power stage
can be simplified to be a one-pole and one-zero system in
frequency domain. The pole is dominant pole and can be
calculated by:
Rev. 1.2 September 2008
where;
ESRCO is the equivalent series resistance of output capacitor.

The zero given by the external compensation network, capacitor CC (C5 in Figure 1) and resistor RC
(R1 in Figure 1), is located at:
1
f Z2 = ----------------------------------2π × C C × R C
To design the compensation circuit, a target crossover
frequency fC for close loop must be selected. The system
crossover frequency is where control loop has unity gain.
The crossover frequency is also called the converter
bandwidth. Generally a higher bandwidth means faster
response to load transient. However, the bandwidth
should not be too high due to system stability concern.
When designing the compensation loop, converter
stability under all line and load condition must be
considered.
www.aosmd.com
Page 10 of 15
AOZ1056
Usually, it is recommended to set the bandwidth to be
less than 1/10 of switching frequency. It is recommended
to choose a crossover frequency less than 34kHz.
f C = 34kHz
The strategy for choosing RC and CC is to set the cross
over frequency with RC and set the compensator zero
with CC. Using selected crossover frequency, fC, to
calculate RC:
In the PCB layout, minimizing the two loops area reduces
the noise of this circuit and improves efficiency. A ground
plane is recommended to connect input capacitor, output
capacitor, and PGND pin of the AOZ1056.
In the AOZ1056 buck regulator circuit, the two major
power dissipating components are the AOZ1056 and
output inductor. The total power dissipation of converter
circuit can be measured by input power minus output
power.
P total_loss = V IN × I IN – V O × I O

The power dissipation of inductor can be approximately

where;

fC is desired crossover frequency,
VFB is 0.8V,
GEA is the error amplifier transconductance, which is 200x10-6
A/V, and
GCS is the current sense circuit transconductance, which is
5.64 A/V.
The compensation capacitor CC and resistor RC together
make a zero. This zero is put somewhere close to the
dominate pole fp1 but lower than 1/5 of selected
crossover frequency. CC can is selected by:
1.5
C C = ----------------------------------2π × R C × f p1
The previous equation above can also be simplified to:
The actual AOZ1056 junction temperature can be
calculated with power dissipation in the AOZ1056 and
thermal impedance from junction to ambient.
T junction =
( P total_loss – P diode_loss – P inductor_loss ) × Θ JA + T amb
The maximum junction temperature of AOZ1056 is
150°C, which limits the maximum load current capability.
The thermal performance of the AOZ1056 is strongly
affected by the PCB layout. Extra care should be taken
by users during design process to ensure that the IC
will operate under the recommended environmental
conditions.
Several layout tips are listed below for the best electric
and thermal performance. Figure 3 below illustrates a
single layer PCB layout example as reference.

design and simulate the compensation loop can be found

1. Do not use thermal relief connection to the VIN and
the PGND pin. Pour a maximized copper area to
the PGND pin and the VIN pin to help thermal
dissipation.
Thermal Management and Layout
Consideration
2. Input capacitor should be connected to the VIN pin
and the PGND pin as close as possible.
In the AOZ1056 buck regulator circuit, high pulsing
current flows through two circuit loops. The first loop
starts from the input capacitors, to the VIN pin, to the LX
pin, to the filter inductor, to the output capacitor and load,
and then return to the input capacitor through ground.
Current flows in the first loop when the high side switch is
on. The second loop starts from inductor, to the output
capacitors and load, to the PGND pin of the AOZ1056, to
the LX pin of the AZO1056. Current flows in the second
loop when the low side diode is on.
3. A ground plane is preferred. If a ground plane is
not used, separate PGND from AGND and connect
them only at one point to avoid the PGND pin noise
coupling to the AGND pin. In this case, a decoupling
capacitor should be connected between VIN pin and
AGND pin.

4. Make the current trace from LX pin to L to Co to the
PGND as short as possible.

may be coupled to other part of
circuit.
5. Pour copper plane on all unused board area and
connect it to stable DC nodes, like VIN, GND or
VOUT.
7. Keep sensitive signal trace such as trace connected
with FB pin and COMP pin far away form the LX pins.
6. The LX pin is connected to internal PFET drain. They
are low resistance thermal conduction path and most
noisy switching node. Connected a copper plane to
LX pin to help thermal dissipation. This copper plane
should not be too larger otherwise switching noise
