This capacitor is needed to drive the power switch’s gate above the supply BST voltage. It is connected between SW and BS pins to form a floating supply across the power switch driver. VCC Bias Supply. Decouple this pin with a 1µF ceramic capacitor. Ground. This pin is the voltage reference for the regulated output voltage. For this reason GND care must be taken in its layout. This node should be placed outside of the D1 to C1 ground path to prevent switching current spikes from inducing voltage noise into the part. Feedback. An external resistor divider from the output to GND, tapped to the FB pin sets the output voltage. To prevent current limit run away during a short circuit fault condition the FB frequency foldback comparator lowers the oscillator frequency when the FB voltage is below 250mV. Power Good Indicator. Connect this pin to VCC or VOUT by a 100kΩ pull-up resistor. The PG output of this pin is low if the output voltage is 10% less than the nominal voltage, otherwise it is an open drain. EN/SYNC On/Off Control Input and Synchronization Pin. Supply Voltage. The SR2026 operates from a +4.5V to +30V unregulated input. C1 is IN needed to prevent large voltage spikes from appearing at the input.

It achieves 5A continuous output current over a wide input supply range with excellent load and line regulation. It provides a single highly efficient solution with current mode control for fast loop response and easy compensation. The SR2026 operates in a fixed frequency, peak current control mode to regulate the output voltage. A PWM cycle is initiated by the internal clock. The integrated high-side power MOSFET is turned on and remains on until its current reaches the value set by the COMP voltage. When the power switch is off, it remains off until the next clock cycle starts. If, in 90% of one PWM period, the current in the power MOSFET does not reach the COMP set current value, the power MOSFET will be forced to turn off. Power Good Indicator When the FB is below 0.74V, the PG pin will be internally pulled low. When the FB is above 0.74V, the PG becomes an open-drain output. TEL:0755-89812241 Error Amplifier The error amplifier compares the FB pin voltage with the internal 0.81V reference (REF) and outputs a current proportional to the difference between the two. This output current is then used to charge or discharge the internal compensation network to form the COMP voltage, which is used to control the power MOSFET current. The optimized internal compensation network minimizes the external component counts and simplifies the control loop design. Internal Regulator Most of the internal circuitries are powered from the 5V internal regulator. This regulator takes the VIN input and operates in the full VIN range. When VIN is greater than 5.0V, the output of the regulator is in full regulation. When VIN is lower than 5.0V, the output decreases. Since this internal regulator provides the bias current for the bottom gate driver that requires significant amount of current depending upon the external MOSFET selection, a 1uF ceramic capacitor for decoupling purpose is required. 6 SR2026 – 5A, 30V, 420KHZ STEP-DOWN CONVERTER Enable/Synch Control The SR2026 has a dedicated Enable/Synch control pin (EN/SYNC). By pulling it high or low, the IC can be enabled and disabled by EN. Tie EN to VIN for automatic start up. To disable the part, EN must be pulled low for at least 5µs. The SR2026 can be synchronized to external clock range from 300KHz up to 1.5MHz through the EN/SYNC pin. The internal clock rising edge is synchronized to the external clock rising edge. Under-Voltage Lockout (UVLO) Under-voltage lockout (UVLO) is implemented to protect the chip from operating at insufficient supply voltage. The SR2026 UVLO comparator monitors the output voltage of the internal regulator, BYPASS. The UVLO rising threshold is about 4.0V while its falling threshold is about 3.2V. Internal Soft-Start The soft-start is implemented to prevent the converter output voltage from overshooting during startup. When the chip starts, the internal circuitry generates a soft-start voltage (SS) ramping up from 0V to 1.2V. When it is lower than the internal reference (REF), SS overrides REF so the error amplifier uses SS as the reference. When SS is higher than REF, REF regains control. Over-Current-Protection and Hiccup The SR2026 has cycle-by-cycle over current limit when the inductor current peak value exceeds the set current limit threshold. Meanwhile, output voltage starts to drop until FB is below the Under-Voltage(UV) threshold, typically 30% below the reference. Once a UV is triggered, the SR2026 enters hiccup mode to periodically restart the part. This protection mode is especially useful when the output is dead-short to ground. The average short circuit current is greatly reduced to alleviate the thermal issue and to protect the regulator. The SR2026 exits the hiccup mode once the over current condition is removed. TEL:0755-89812241 Thermal Shutdown Thermal shutdown is implemented to prevent the chip from operating at exceedingly high temperatures. When the silicon die temperature is higher than 150°C, it shuts down the whole chip. When the temperature is lower than its lower threshold, typically 140°C, the chip is enabled again. Floating Driver and Bootstrap Charging The floating power MOSFET driver is powered by an external bootstrap capacitor. This floating driver has its own UVLO protection. This UVLO’s rising threshold is 2.2V with a hysteresis of 150mV. The bootstrap capacitor voltage is regulated internally (Figure 2). Even at light load condition, as long as VIN is 3V higher than VOUT, C4 will have enough voltage provided by VIN through D2, M2, C4, L1 and C2. If (VIN-VSW) is more than 5V, U2 will regulate M2 to maintain a 5V BST voltage across C4. D2 VIN M2 + 5V + -- BST U2 -- C4 VOUT SW L1 C2 Figure 2—Internal Bootstrap Charging Circuit Startup and Shutdown If both VIN and EN are higher than their appropriate thresholds, the chip starts. The reference block starts first, generating stable reference voltage and currents, and then the internal regulator is enabled. The regulator provides stable supply for the remaining circuitries. Three events can shut down the chip: EN low, VIN low and thermal shutdown. In the shutdown procedure, the signaling path is first blocked to avoid any fault triggering. The COMP voltage and the internal supply rail are then pulled down. The floating driver is not subject to this shutdown command. 7 SR2026 – 5A, 30V, 420KHZ STEP-DOWN CONVERTER APPLICATION INFORMATION The schematic on the front page shows a typical SR2026 application. The IC can provide up to 5A output current at a nominal output voltage of 3.3V. For proper thermal performance, the exposed pad of the device must be soldered down to the printed circuit board. Setting the Output Voltage The external resistor divider is used to set the output voltage (see the schematic on front page). The feedback resistor R1 also sets the feedback loop bandwidth with the internal compensation capacitor (see Figure 1). Choose R1 to be around 40.2kΩ for optimal transient response. R2 is then given by: R2 = R1 VOUT −1 0 .8 V Table 1—Resistor Selection for Common Output Voltages VOUT (V) 1.8 2.5 3.3 5 R1 (kΩ) 40.2 (1%) 40.2 (1%) 40.2 (1%) 40.2 (1%) R2 (kΩ) 32.4 (1%) 19.1 (1%) 13 (1%) 7.68 (1%) Selecting the Inductor A 1µH to 10µH inductor with a DC current rating of at least 25% percent higher than the maximum load current is recommended for most applications. For highest efficiency, the inductor DC resistance should be less than 15mΩ. For most designs, the inductance value can be derived from the following equation. L= Output Rectifier Diode The output rectifier diode supplies the current to the inductor when the high-side switch is off. To reduce losses due to the diode forward voltage and recovery times, use a Schottky diode. Choose a diode whose maximum reverse voltage rating is greater than the maximum input voltage, and whose current rating is greater than the maximum load current. Table 2 lists example Schottky diodes and manufacturers. Table 2—Diode Selection Guide Diode Voltage/Current Rating Manufacture B530C MBRD630CT 30V, 5A 30V, 6A Diodes Inc. On Semi Selecting the Input Capacitor The input capacitor (C1) reduces the surge current drawn from the input and the switching noise from the device. The input capacitor impedance at the switching frequency should be less than the input source impedance to prevent high frequency switching current from passing to the input. Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics are highly recommended because of their low ESR and small temperature coefficients. For 5A output applications, a 22µF capacitor is sufficient. Selecting the Output Capacitor The output capacitor (C2) keeps output voltage small and ensures regulation loop stability. The output capacitor impedance should be low at the switching frequency. Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics are recommended. VOUT × ( VIN − VOUT ) VIN × ΔIL × f OSC Where ΔIL is the inductor ripple current. Choose inductor current to be approximately 30% of the maximum load current, 5A. The maximum inductor peak current is: IL(MAX ) = ILOAD + ΔI L 2 Under light load conditions below 100mA, larger inductance is recommended for improved efficiency. TEL:0755-89812241 8 SR2026 – 5A, 30V, 420KHZ STEP-DOWN CONVERTER PCB Layout Guide PCB layout is very important to achieve stable operation. Please follow these guidelines and take Figure3 and 4 for references. 1) Keep the path of switching current short and minimize the loop area formed by Input cap, high-side MOSFET and schottky diode. Keep the connection of schottky diode between SW pin and input power ground as short and wide as possible. 3) Ensure all feedback connections are short and direct. Place the feedback resistors and compensation components as close to the chip as possible. 4) Route SW away from sensitive analog areas such as FB. 5) Connect IN, SW, and especially GND respectively to a large copper area to cool the chip to improve thermal performance and long-term reliability. For single layer PCB, exposed pad should not be soldered.
