Figure 2 . Functional Block Diagram
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
As seen in Figure 2, Functional Block Diagram,
the BM1411 is a current mode pulse width
modulation (PWM) converter. The converter
operates as follows:
The COMP voltage is the integration of the error
between FB input and the internal 1.22V reference. If FB is
lower than the reference voltage, COMP tends to go higher
to increase current to the output. Current limit happens when
COMP reaches its maximum clam value of 2.55V.
A switching cycle starts when the rising edge of
the Oscillator clock output causes the High-Side
Power Switch to turn on and the Low-Side Power
Switch to turn off. With the SW side of the inductor
now connected to IN, the inductor current ramps
up to store energy in the its magnetic field. The
inductor current level is measured by the Current
Sense Amplifier and added to the Oscillator ramp
signal. If the resulting summation is higher than
the COMP voltage, the output of the PWM
Comparator goes high. When this happens or when
Oscillator clock output goes low, the High-Side
Power Switch turns off and the Low-Side Power
Switch turns on. At this point, the SW side of the
inductor swings to a diode voltage below ground,
causing the inductor current to decrease and
magnetic energy to be transferred to output. This
state continues until the cycle starts again.
The Oscillator normally switches at 380kHz. However, if
FB voltage is less than 0.7V, then the switching frequency
decreases until it reaches a minimum of 50kHz at VFB = 0.5V.
SHUTDOWN CONTROL
The BM1411 has an enable input EN for turning the IC
on or off. When EN is less than 1.8V, the IC is in 20µA low
current shutdown mode and output is discharged through
the Low-Side Power Switch. When EN is higher than
2.0V, the IC is in normal operation mode. EN is internally
pulled up with a 2.5µA current source and can be left
unconnected for always-on operation. Note that EN is a
low voltage input with a maximum voltage of 6V; it should
never be directly connected to IN.
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
The BM1411 automatically turns off when its junction
The High-Side Power Switch is driven by logic
using BS bootstrap pin as the positive rail. This pin
is charged to VSW + 6V when the Low-Side Power
Switch turns on.

INPUT CAPACITOR
R FB1
The input capacitor needs to be carefully selected to
maintain sufficiently low ripple at the supply input of the
converter. A low ESR capacitor is highly recommended.
Since large current flows in and out of this capacitor
during switching, its ESR also affects efficiency.
FB
R FB2
The input capacitance needs to be higher than 10µF.
The best choice is the ceramic type; however, low ESR
tantalum or electrolytic types may also be used provided
that the RMS ripple current rating is higher than 50% of
the output current. The input capacitor should be placed
close to the IN and G pins of the IC, with shortest traces
possible. In the case of tantalum or electrolytic types,
they can be further away if a small parallel 0.1µF ceramic
capacitor is placed right next to the IC.
Figure 3. Output Voltage Setting
Figure 3 shows the connections for setting
the output voltage. Select the proper ratio of the
two feedback resistors RFB1 and RFB2 based on
the output voltage. Typically, use RFB2 ≈10kΩ
and determine RFB1 from the output voltage:
⎛V
⎞
RFB1 = RFB 2 ⎜ OUT − 1⎟
⎝ 1.22V ⎠
(1 )
OUTPUT CAPACITOR
The output capacitor also needs to have low ESR to
keep low output voltage ripple. The output ripple voltage
is:
INDUCTOR SELECTION
V RIPPLE = IOUTMAX KRIPPLE RESR
The inductor maintains a continuous current
to the output load. This inductor current has a
ripple that is dependent on the inductance value:
higher inductance reduces the peak-to-peak
ripple current. The trade off for high inductance
value is the increase in inductor core size and
series resistance, and the reduction in current
handling capability. In general, select an
inductance value L based on ripple current
requirement:
L=
VOUT • (VIN − VOUT )
VIN f SW I OUTMAX K RIPPLE
+
VIN
28f sw 2 LCOUT
(3)
where IOUTMAX is the maximum output current, KRIPPLE is
the ripple factor, RESR is the ESR resistance of the output
capacitor, fSW is the switching frequency, L in the inductor
value, COUT is the output capacitance. In the case of
ceramic output capacitors, RESR is very small and does
not contribute to the ripple. Therefore, a lower
capacitance value can be used for ceramic type. In the
case of tantalum or electrolytic type, the ripple is
dominated by RESR multiplied by the ripple current. In that
case, the output capacitor is chosen to have sufficiently low
ESR.
(2 )
where VIN is the input voltage, VOUT is the output
voltage, fSW is the switching frequency, IOUTMAX is
the maximum output current, and KRIPPLE is the
ripple factor. Typically, choose KRIPPLE = 30% to
correspond to the peak-to-peak ripple current
being 30% of the maximum output current.
For ceramic output type, typically choose a
capacitance of about 22µF. For tantalum or electrolytic
type, choose a capacitor with less than 50mΩ ESR.
With this inductor value (Table 1), the peak
inductor current is IOUT • (1 + KRIPPLE / 2). Make
sure that this peak inductor current is less that
the 3A current limit. Finally, select the inductor
core size so that it does not saturate at 3A.
RECTIFIER DIODE
Use a Schottky diode as the rectifier to conduct
current when the High-Side Power Switch is off. The
Schottky diode must have current rating higher than the
maximum output current and the reverse voltage rating
higher than the maximum input voltage.

enough to cause a zero at lower than 4 times the
cross over frequency, an additional compensation
capacitor CCOMP2 is required. The condition for using
CCOMP2 is:

CCOMP2 such as 100pF may improve stability against
