Name Description
VIN
Supply input — Nominal operating range is 6V to 20V . A small amount of internal capacitance is contained within the
package assembly. Additional external input capacitance is required between this pin and exposed pad (PGND).
SYNC Sync Input — Apply a CMOS logic level square wave whose frequency is between 650 kHz and 950 kHz to synchronize
the PWM operating frequency to an external frequency source. When not using synchronization connect to ground.
The module free running PWM frequency is 812 kHz (Typ)
EN
Enable — Input to the precision enable comparator. Rising threshold is 1.279V typical. Once the module is enabled,
a 20 uA source current is internally activated to accommodate programmable hysteresis.
AGND Analog Ground — Reference point for all stated voltages. Must be externally connected to EP/PGND.

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 intended to be functional. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.
Note 2: The human body model is a 100pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 kΩ resistor into each pin. Test method is per JESD-22-114.
Note 3: Min and Max limits are 100% production tested at 25°C. Limits over the operating temperature range are guaranteed through correlation using Statistical
Quality Control (SQC) methods. Limits are used to calculate National’s Average Outgoing Quality Level (AOQL).
Note 4: Typical numbers are at 25°C and represent the most likely parametric norm.
Note 5: EN 55022:2006, +A1:2007, FCC Part 15 Subpart B: 2007. See AN-2125 and layout for information on device under test. Vin = 12V, Vo = 3.3V, Io = 5A

precision under voltage lock out (UVLO), the Enable input
may be left open circuit and the internal resistor will always
enable the module. In such case, the internal UVLO occurs
typically at 4.3V (VIN rising).
In applications with separate supervisory circuits Enable can
be directly interfaced to a logic source. In the case of sequencing supplies, the divider is connected to a rail that
becomes active earlier in the power-up cycle than the
LMZ22005 output rail.
Enable provides a precise 1.279V threshold to allow direct
logic drive or connection to a voltage divider from a higher
enable voltage such as VIN. Additionally there is 21 μA(typ) of
switched offset current allowing programmable hysteresis.
See Figure 1.
The function of the enable divider is to allow the designer to
choose an input voltage below which the circuit will be disabled. This implements the feature of programmable UVLO.
The two resistors should be chosen based on the following
ratio:
RENT / RENB = (VIN UVLO / 179V) – 1 (1)
General Description
The LMZ22005 SIMPLE SWITCHER© power module is an
easy-to-use step-down DC-DC solution capable of driving up
to 5A load. The LMZ22005 is available in an innovative package that enhances thermal performance and allows for hand
or machine soldering.
The LMZ22005 can accept an input voltage rail between 6V
and 20V and deliver an adjustable and highly accurate output
voltage as low as 0.8V. The LMZ22005 only requires two external resistors and three external capacitors to complete the
power solution. The LMZ22005 is a reliable and robust design
with the following protection features: thermal shutdown, input under-voltage lockout, output over-voltage protection,
short-circuit protection, output current limit, and allows startup
into a pre-biased output. The sync input allows synchronization over the 650 to 950 kHz switching frequency range.
Design Steps for the LMZ22005
Application
The LMZ22005 typical application shows 12.7kΩ for RENB and
42.2kΩ for RENT resulting in a rising UVLO of 5.46V. Note that
a midpoint 5.1V Zener clamp is present to allow setting UVLO
to cover an extended range of operation. The zener clamp is
not required if the target application prohibits the maximum
Enable input voltage from being exceeded.
Additional enable voltage hysteresis can be added with the
inclusion of RENH. It may be possible to select values for
RENT and RENB such that RENH is a value of zero allowing it to
be omitted from the design.
Rising threshold can be calculated as follows:
The LMZ22005 is fully supported by Webench® which offers:
component selection, electrical and thermal simulations. Additionally there is are evaluation and demonstration boards
that may be used a starting point for design. The following list
of steps can be used to quickly design the LMZ22005 application.
• Select minimum operating VIN with enable divider resistors
• Program VO with resistor divider selection
• Select CO
• Select CIN
• Determine module power dissipation
• Layout PCB for required thermal performance

activated. Note that the following conditions will reset the softstart capacitor by discharging the SS input to ground with an
internal current sink.
• The Enable input being pulled low
• Thermal shutdown condition
• Internal Vcc UVLO (Approx 4.3V input to VIN)
OUTPUT VOLTAGE SELECTION
Output voltage is determined by a divider of two resistors
connected between VO and ground. The midpoint of the divider is connected to the FB input.
The regulated output voltage determined by the external divider resistors RFBT and RFBB is:
VO = 0.8V * (1 + RFBT / RFBB) (2)
TRACKING SUPPLY DIVIDER OPTION
The tracking function allows the module to be connected as
a slave supply to a primary voltage rail (often the 3.3V system
rail) where the slave module output voltage is lower than that
of the master. Proper configuration allows the slave rail to
power up coincident with the master rail such that the voltage
difference between the rails during ramp-up is small (i.e.
<0.15V typ). The values for the tracking resistive divider
should be selected such that the effect of the internal 50uA
current source is minimized. In most cases the ratio of the
tracking divider resistors is the same as the ratio of the output
voltage setting divider. Proper operation in tracking mode dictates the soft-start time of the slave rail be shorter than the
master rail; a condition that is easy satisfy since the CSS cap
is replaced by RTKB. The tracking function is only supported
for the power up interval of the master supply; once the SS/
TRK rises past 0.8V the input is no longer enabled and the 50
uA internal current source is switched off.
Rearranging terms; the ratio of the feedback resistors for a
desired output voltage is:
RFBT / RFBB = (VO / 0.796V) - 1 (3)
These resistors should generally be chosen from values in the
range of 1.0 kohm to 10.0 kohm.
For VO = 0.8V the FB pin can be connected to the output directly and RFBB can be omitted.
A table of values for RFBT , and RFBB, is included in the applications schematic.
SOFT-START CAPACITOR SELECTION
Programmable soft-start permits the regulator to slowly ramp
to its steady state operating point after being enabled, thereby
reducing current inrush from the input supply and slowing the
output voltage rise-time.
Upon turn-on, after all UVLO conditions have been passed,
an internal 2 mSec circuit slowly ramps the SS/TRK input to
implement internal soft start. If 1.6mSec is an adequate turn–
on time then the Css capacitor can be left unpopulated.
Longer soft-start periods are achieved by adding an external
capacitor to this input.
Soft start duration is given by the formula:
tSS = VREF * CSS / Iss = 0.796V * CSS / 50uA (4)
This equation can be rearranged as follows:
CSS = tSS * 50μA / 0.796V (5)
Using a 0.22μF capacitor results in 3.5 msec typical soft-start
duration; and 0.47μF results in 7.5 msec typical. 0.47 μF is a
recommended initial value.
Once the soft-start input exceeds 0.796V the output of the
power stage will be in regulation and the 50 μA current is de-

Tracking option input detail
(As a point of reference, the worst case ripple current will occur when the module is presented with full load current and
when VIN = 2 * VO).
Recommended minimum input capacitance is 22uF X7R (or
X5R) ceramic with a voltage rating at least 25% higher than
the maximum applied input voltage for the application. It is
also recommended that attention be paid to the voltage and
temperature derating of the capacitor selected. It should be
noted that ripple current rating of ceramic capacitors may be
missing from the capacitor data sheet and you may have to
contact the capacitor manufacturer for this parameter.
If the system design requires a certain minimum value of
peak-to-peak input ripple voltage (ΔVIN) be maintained then
the following equation may be used.
CIN ≥ IO * D * (1–D) / fSW-CCM * ΔVIN(9)
If ΔVIN is 1% of VIN for a 12V input to 3.3V output application
this equals 120 mV and fSW = 812 kHz.

Figure 2
CIN≥ 5A * 3.3V/12V * (1– 3.3V/12V) / (812000 * 0.120 V)
≥ 10.2μF
CO SELECTION
None of the required CO output capacitance is contained within the module. A minimum value of 200 μF is required based
on the values of internal compensation in the error amplifier.
Low ESR tantalum, organic semiconductor or specialty polymer capacitor types are recommended for obtaining lowest
ripple. The output capacitor CO may consist of several capacitors in parallel placed in close proximity to the module.
The output capacitor assembly must also meet the worst case
minimum ripple current rating of 0.5 * ILR P-P, as calculated in
equation (14) below. Beyond that, additional capacitance will
reduce output ripple so long as the ESR is low enough to permit it. Loop response verification is also valuable to confirm
closed loop behavior.
For applications with dynamic load steps; the following equation provides a good first pass approximation of CO for load
transient requirements. Where VO-Tran is 100mV on a 3.3V
output design.
Additional bulk capacitance with higher ESR may be required
to damp any resonant effects of the input capacitance and
parasitic inductance of the incoming supply lines. The
LMZ22005 typical applications schematic recommends a 150
μF 50V aluminum capacitor for this function. There are many
situations where this capacitor is not necessary.
POWER DISSIPATION AND BOARD THERMAL
REQUIREMENTS
When calculating module dissipation use the maximum input
voltage and the average output current for the application.
Many common operating conditions are provided in the characteristic curves such that less common applications can be
derived through interpolation. In all designs, the junction temperature must be kept below the rated maximum of 125°C.
CO≥IO-Tran*/((VO-Tran – ESR * IO-Tran)*(Fsw / VO)(6)
For the design case of VIN = 12V, VO = 3.3V, IO = 5A, and
TAMB(MAX) = 85°C, the module must see a thermal resistance
from case to ambient of less than:
Solving:
θCA< (TJ-MAX – TA-MAX) / PIC-LOSS - θJC (10)
CO≥ 4.5A / ((0.1V – .007*4.5A) * ( 800000HZ / 3.3V) ≥
271μF (7)
Given the typical thermal resistance from junction to case to
be 1.9 °C/W. Use the 85°C power dissipation curves in the
Typical Performance Characteristics section to estimate the
PIC-LOSS for the application being designed. In this application
it is 4.3W.
Note that the stability requirement for 200 µF minimum output
capacitance will take precedence.
One recommended output capacitor combination is a 220uF,
7 milliohm ESR specialty polymer cap in parallel with a 100
uF 6.3V X5R ceramic. This combination provides excellent
performance that may exceed the requirements of certain applications. Additionally some small ceramic capacitors can be
used for high frequency EMI suppression.
θCA = (125 – 85) / 4.3W – 1.9 = 7.4 (11)
To reach θCA = 7.4, the PCB is required to dissipate heat effectively. With no airflow and no external heat-sink, a good
estimate of the required board area covered by 2 oz. copper
on both the top and bottom metal layers is:
Board_Area_cm2 = 500°C x cm2/W / θCA (12)
CIN SELECTION
The LMZ22005 module contains only a small amount of input
capacitance. Additional input capacitance is required external
to the module to handle the input ripple current of the application. The input capacitor can be several capacitors in parallel. This input capacitance should be located in very close
proximity to the module. Input capacitor selection is generally
directed to satisfy the input ripple current requirements rather
than by capacitance value. Input ripple current rating is dictated by the equation:
As a result, approximately 67square cm of 2 oz copper on top
and bottom layers is required for the PCB design. The PCB
copper heat sink must be connected to the exposed pad. Approximately sixty, 10mils (254 μm) thermal vias spaced 39
mils (1.0 mm) apart connect the top copper to the bottom
copper. For an example of a high thermal performance PCB
layout for SIMPLE SWITCHER© power modules, refer to
AN-2085, AN-2125, AN-2020 and AN-2026.
PC BOARD LAYOUT GUIDELINES
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,

Additional Features
SYNCHRONIZATION INPUT
The PWM switching frequency can be synchronized to an external frequency source. If this feature is not used, connect
this input either directly to ground, or connect to ground
through a resistor of 1.5 kΩ ohm or less. The allowed synchronization frequency range is 650kHz to 950 kHz. The
typical input threshold is 1.4V transition level. Ideally the input
clock should overdrive the threshold by a factor of 2, so direct
drive from 3.3V logic via a 1.5kΩ Thevenin source resistance
is recommended. Note that applying a sustained “logic 1” corresponds to zero Hz PWM frequency and will cause the
module to stop switching.
OUTPUT OVER-VOLTAGE PROTECTION
If the voltage at FB is greater than the 0.86V internal reference
the output of the error amplifier is pulled toward ground causing VO to fall.
30132911
1. Minimize area of switched current loops.
From an EMI reduction standpoint, it is imperative to minimize
the high di/dt paths during PC board layout as shown in the
figure above. The high current loops that do not overlap have
high di/dt content that will cause observable high frequency
noise on the output pin if the input capacitor (Cin1) is placed
at a distance away from the LMZ22005. Therefore place
CIN1 as close as possible to the LMZ22005 VIN and PGND
exposed pad. This will minimize the high di/dt area and reduce
radiated EMI. Additionally, grounding for both the input and
output capacitor should consist of a localized top side plane
that connects to the PGND exposed pad (EP).
2. Have a single point ground.
The ground connections for the feedback, soft-start, and enable components should be routed to the AGND pin of the
device. This prevents any switched or load currents from
flowing in the analog ground traces. If not properly handled,
poor grounding can result in degraded load regulation or erratic output voltage ripple behavior. Additionally provide the
single point ground connection from pin 4 (AGND) to EP/
PGND.
3. Minimize trace length to the FB pin.
Both feedback resistors, RFBT and RFBB, and the feed forward
capacitor CFF, should be located close to the FB pin. Since
the FB node is high impedance, maintain the copper area as
small as possible. The traces from RFBT, RFBB, and CFF should
be routed away from the body of the LMZ22005 to minimize
possible noise pickup.
4. Make input and output bus connections as wide as
possible.
This reduces any voltage drops on the input or output of the
converter and maximizes efficiency. To optimize voltage accuracy at the load, ensure that a separate feedback voltage
sense trace is made to the load. Doing so will correct for voltage drops and provide optimum output accuracy.
5. Provide adequate device heat-sinking.
Use an array of heat-sinking vias to connect the exposed pad
to the ground plane on the bottom PCB layer. If the PCB has
a plurality of copper layers, these thermal vias can also be
employed to make connection to inner layer heat-spreading
ground planes. For best results use a 6 x 10 via array with
minimum via diameter of 10mils (254 μm) thermal vias spaced
39mils (1.0 mm). Ensure enough copper area is used for heatsinking to keep the junction temperature below 125°C.
CURRENT LIMIT
The LMZ22005 is protected by both low side (LS) and high
side (HS) current limit circuitry. The LS current limit detection
is carried out during the off-time by monitoring the current
through the LS synchronous MOSFET. Referring to the Functional Block Diagram, when the top MOSFET is turned off, the
inductor current flows through the load, the PGND pin and the
internal synchronous MOSFET. If this current exceeds 5.4A
(typical) the current limit comparator disables the start of the
next switching period. Switching cycles are prohibited until
current drops below the limit. It should also be noted that d.c.
current limit is dependent on duty cycle as illustrated in the
graph in the typical performance section. The HS current limit
monitors the current of top side MOSFET. Once HS current
limit is detected (7A typical) , the HS MOSFET is shutoff immediately, until the next cycle. Exceeding HS current limit
causes VO to fall. Typical behavior of exceeding LS current
limit is that fSW drops to 1/2 of the operating frequency.
THERMAL PROTECTION
The junction temperature of the LMZ22005 should not be allowed to exceed its maximum ratings. Thermal protection is
implemented by an internal thermal shutdown circuit which
activates at 165 °C (typ) causing the device to enter a low
power standby state. In this state the main MOSFET remains
off causing VO to fall, and additionally the CSS capacitor is
discharged to ground. Thermal protection helps prevent
catastrophic failures for accidental device overheating. When
the junction temperature falls back below 150 °C (typ Hyst =
15°C) the SS pin is released, VO rises smoothly, and normal
operation resumes.
Applications requiring maximum output current especially
those at high input voltage may require additional derating at
elevated temperatures.
PRE-BIASED STARTUP
The LMZ22005 will properly start up into a pre-biased output.
This startup situation is common in multiple rail logic applications where current paths may exist between different power
rails during the startup sequence. The following scope capture shows proper behavior in this mode. Trace one is Enable
going high. Trace two is 1.5V pre-bias rising to 3.3V. Rise time
determined by CSS, trace three.

ground bounce and resistive voltage drop in the traces. These
can send erroneous signals to the DC-DC converter resulting
in poor regulation or instability. Good layout can be implemented by following a few simple design rules. A good example layout is shown in Figure 5.

DISCONTINUOUS AND CONTINUOUS CONDUCTION
MODES
At light load the regulator will operate in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). With load currents above the critical
conduction point, it will operate in continuous conduction
mode (CCM). In CCM, current flows through the inductor
through the entire switching cycle and never falls to zero during the off-time. When operating in DCM, inductor current is
maintained to an average value equaling Iout. Inductor current exhibits normal behavior for the emulated current mode
control method used. Output voltage ripple typically increases
during this mode of operation.
Following is a comparison pair of waveforms of the showing
both CCM (upper) and DCM operating modes.
www.national.com
The approximate formula for determining the DCM/CCM
boundary is as follows:
IDCB≊VO*(VIN–VO)/(2*3.3 μH*fSW(CCM)*VIN) (13)
The inductor internal to the module is 3.3 μH. This value was
chosen as a good balance between low and high input voltage
applications. The main parameter affected by the inductor is
the amplitude of the inductor ripple current (ILR). ILR can be
calculated with:
ILR P-P=VO*(VIN- VO)/(3.3µH*fSW*VIN) (14)
Where V IN is the maximum input voltage and fSW is typically
812 kHz.
If the output current IO is determined by assuming that IO =
IL, the higher and lower peak of ILR can be determined.
