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. temperature exceeds 168°C. 4 Rev. 1.2 BM1411 Table 1. Typical Inductor Values APPLICATION INFORMATION Vout L(µH) OUTPUT VOLTAGE SETTING 1.5v 6.8 1.8v 6.8 2.5v 10 3.3v 15 5v 22 12v 47 Vout 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. 5 Rev. 1.2 BM1411 STABILTY COMPENSATION COMP CCOMP BM1411 If RCOMP is limited to 15kΩ, then the actual cross over frequency is 3.4 / (VOUTCOUT).

If the output capacitor’s ESR is high 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: Figure 4. stability compensation The feedback system of the IC is stabilized by the components at COMP pin, as shown in Figure 4.
