RECOMMENDED COMPONENTS Applications Information The ISL97642 provides a highly integrated multiple output power solution for TFT-LCD applications. The system consists of one high efficiency boost converter and two low cost linear-regulator controllers (VON and VOFF) with multiple protection functions. The block diagram of the whole part is shown in Figure 16. Table 1 lists the recommended components. The ISL97642 integrates an N-Channel MOSFET in boost converter to minimize the external component counts and cost. The VON, VOFF linear-regulators are independently regulated by using external resistors. To achieve higher voltage than VBOOST, one or multiple stage charge pumps may be used. 9 DESIGNATION C1, C2, C3 D1 DESCRIPTION 10µF, 16V X5R ceramic capacitor (1210) TDK C3216X5R0J106K 1A 20V low leakage Schottky rectifier (CASE 457-04) ON SEMI MBRM120ET3 D11, D12, D21 200mA, 30V Schottky barrier diode (SOT-23) Fairchild BAT54S L1 6.8µH, 1.3A Inductor TDK SLF6025T-6R8M1R3-PF Q11 200mA, 40V PNP amplifier (SOT-23) Fairchild MMBT3906 Q21 200mA, 40V NPN amplifier (SOT-23) Fairchild MMBT3904 FN6436.0 June 18, 2007 ISL97642 VREF REFERENCE GENERATOR OSCILLATOR COMP SLOPE COMPENSATION Σ OSC LX PWM LOGIC CONTROLLER BUFFER FBB GM AMPLIFIER CINT CURRENT AMPLIFIER PGND UVLO COMPARATOR CURRENT REF CURRENT LIMIT COMPARATOR SHUTDOWN AND START-UP CONTROL VREF SS + DRVP BUFFER THERMAL SHUTDOWN FBP UVLO COMPARATOR SS + DRVN 0.2V BUFFER FBN 0.4V UVLO COMPARATOR FIGURE 16. BLOCK DIAGRAM Boost Converter The main boost converter is a current mode PWM converter operating at a fixed frequency. The 1.2MHz switching frequency enables the use of low profile inductor and multilayer ceramic capacitors, which results in a compact, low cost power system for LCD panel design. The boost converter can operate in continuous or discontinuous inductor current mode. The ISL97642 is designed for continuous current mode, but it can also operate in discontinuous current mode at light load. In continuous current mode, current flows continuously in the inductor during the entire switching cycle in steady state operation. The voltage conversion ratio in continuous current mode is given by Equation 1: V BOOST 1 ------------------------ = ------------1–D V IN (EQ. 1) Figure 17 shows the block diagram of the boost controller. It uses a summing amplifier architecture consisting of GM stages for voltage feedback, current feedback and slope compensation. A comparator looks at the peak inductor current cycle by cycle and terminates the PWM cycle if the current limit is reached. An external resistor divider is required to divide the output voltage down to the nominal reference voltage. Current drawn by the resistor network should be limited to maintain the overall converter efficiency. The maximum value of the resistor network is limited by the feedback input bias current and the potential for noise being coupled into the feedback pin. A resistor network in the order of 60kΩ is recommended. The boost converter output voltage is determined using Equation 2: R1 + R2 V BOOST = --------------------- × V REF R1 (EQ. 2) Where D is the duty cycle of switching MOSFET. 10 FN6436.0 June 18, 2007 ISL97642 The current through MOSFET is limited to 2.8A (typ) peak. This restricts the maximum output current based on Equation 3: ΔI L V IN I OMAX = ⎛ I LMT – --------⎞ × --------⎝ 2 ⎠ VO Where ΔIL is peak to peak inductor ripple current, and is set by Equation 4: V IN D ΔI L = --------- × ----L fS (EQ. 4) (EQ. 3) where fS is the switching frequency.

It is recommended that CIN be larger than 10μF. The reflected ripple voltage will be smaller with larger CIN. The voltage rating of input capacitor should be larger than the maximum input voltage. Boost Inductor The boost inductor is a critical part which influences the output voltage ripple, transient response, and efficiency. Value of 3.3μH to 10μH inductor is recommended in applications to fit the internal slope compensation. The inductor must be able to handle the following average and peak current: ΔI L I LPK = I LAVG + -------2 IO I LAVG = ------------1–D (EQ. 5) Rectifier Diode A high-speed diode is desired due to the high switching frequency. Schottky diodes are recommended because of their fast recovery time and low forward voltage. The rectifier diode must meet the output current and peak inductor current requirements. Output Capacitor The output capacitor supplies the load directly and reduces the ripple voltage at the output. Output ripple voltage consists of two components: the voltage drop due to the inductor ripple current flowing through the ESR of output capacitor, and the charging and discharging of the output capacitor. IO V O – V IN 1 V RIPPLE = I LPK × ESR + ------------------------ × ---------------- × ----C OUT f S VO NOTE: Capacitors have a voltage coefficient that makes their effective capacitance drop as the voltage across them increases. COUT in the Equation 6 assumes the effective value of the capacitor at a particular voltage and not the manufacturer’s stated value, measured at zero volts. Compensation The ISL97642 incorporates a transconductance amplifier in its feedback path to allow the user some adjustment on the transient response and better regulation. The ISL97642 uses current mode control architecture, which has a fast current sense loop and a slow voltage feedback loop. The fast current feedback loop does not require any compensation. The slow voltage loop must be compensated for stable operation. The compensation network is a series RC network from COMP pin to ground. The resistor sets the high frequency integrator gain for fast transient response and the capacitor sets the integrator zero to ensure loop stability. For most applications, a 2.2nF capacitor and a 180Ω resistor are inserted in series between COMP pin and ground. To improve the transient response, either the resistor value can be increased or the capacitor value can be reduced, but too high resistor value or too low capacitor value will reduce loop stability. Boost Feedback Resistors As the boost output voltage, VBOOST, is reduced below 12V, the effective voltage feedback in the IC increases the ratio of voltage to current feedback at the summing comparator because R2 decreases relative to R1. To maintain stable operation over the complete current range of the IC, the voltage feedback to the FBB pin should be reduced proportionally (as VBOOST is reduced) by means of a series resistor-capacitor network (R7 and C7) in parallel with R1, with a pole frequency (fp) set to approximately 10kHz for C2 (effective) = 10µF and 4kHz for C2 (effective) = 30µF. R 7 = 1 ⁄ 0.1 × R 2 – ( 1 ⁄ R 1 )^-1 (EQ. 7) C 7 = 1 ⁄ 2 × 3.142 × fp × R 7 (EQ. 8) Linear-Regulator Controllers (VON and VOFF) The ISL97642 includes 2 independent linear-regulator controllers, in which there is one positive output voltage (VON) and one negative voltage (VOFF). The VON and VOFF linear-regulator controller function diagram, application circuit and waveforms are shown in Figures 18 and 19 respectively. (EQ. 6) For low ESR ceramic capacitors, the output ripple is dominated by the charging and discharging of the output capacitor. The voltage rating of the output capacitor should be greater than the maximum output voltage. 12 FN6436.0 June 18, 2007 ISL97642 VBOOST LX 0.1µF LDO_ON 0.9V PG_LDOP + - CP (TO 36V) 36V ESD CLAMP RBP 700Ω 0.1µF VON (TO 35V) DRVP FBP RP1 CON RP2 20kΩ + GMP 1: Np The VOFF power supply is used to power the negative supply of the row driver in the LCD panel. The DC/DC consists of an external diode-capacitor charge pump powered from the inductor (LX) of the boost converter, followed by a low dropout linear regulator (LDO_OFF). The LDO_OFF regulator uses an external NPN transistor as the pass element. The onboard LDO controller is a wide band (>10MHz) transconductance amplifier capable of 5mA output current, which is sufficient for up to 50mA or more output current under the low dropout condition (forced beta of 10). Typical VOFF voltage supported by ISL97642 ranges from -5V to -25V. A fault comparator is also included for monitoring the output voltage. The undervoltage threshold is set at 200mV above the 0.2V reference level. Set-up Output Voltage FIGURE 18. VON FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM Refer to the “Typical Application Circuit” on page 18.

THE LINEAR REGULATOR CONTROLS ONE STAGE OF CHARGE PUMP Calculation of the Linear Regulator Base-emitter Resistors (RBP and RBN) For the pass transistor of the linear regulator, low frequency gain (Hfe) and unity gain frequency (fT) are usually specified in the datasheet. The pass transistor adds a pole to the loop transfer function at fp = fT/Hfe. Therefore, in order to maintain phase margin at low frequency, the best choice for a pass device is often a high frequency, low gain switching transistor. Further improvement can be obtained by adding a base-emitter resistor RBE (RBP, RBL, RBN in the Functional Block Diagram), which increases the pole frequency to: fp = fT*(1+ Hfe *re/RBE)/Hfe, where re = KT/qIc. So choose the lowest value RBE in the design as long as there is still enough base current (IB) to support the maximum output current (IC). We will take as an example the VON linear regulator. If a Fairchild MMBT3906 PNP transistor is used as the external pass transistor (Q11 in the application diagram), then for a maximum VON operating requirement of 50mA, the data sheet indicates Hfe_min = 60. The base-emitter saturation voltage is: Vbe_max = 0.7V. For the ISL97642, the minimum drive current is: I_DRVP_min = 2mA The minimum base-emitter resistor, RBP, can now be calculated as: RBP_min = VBE_max ⁄ (I_DRVP_min - Ic/Hfe_min = ( ( 0.7V ) ⁄ ( 2mA – ( 50mA ) ⁄ 60 ) ) = 600Ω (EQ. 11) This is the minimum value that can be used – so, we now choose a convenient value greater than this minimum value; for example, 700Ω. Larger values may be used to reduce quiescent current, however, regulation may be adversely affected by supply noise if RBP is made too high in value. 14 Charge Pump To generate an output voltage higher than VBOOST, single or multiple stages of charge pumps are needed. The number of stage is determined by the input and output voltage. For positive charge pump stages: V OUT + V CE – V INPUT N POSITIVE ≥ -------------------------------------------------------------V INPUT – 2 × V F (EQ. 12) where VCE is the dropout voltage of the pass component of the linear regulator. It ranges from 0.3V to 1V depending on the transistor selected. VF is the forward-voltage of the charge-pump rectifier diode. The number of negative charge-pump stages is given by: V OUTPUT + V CE N NEGATIVE ≥ ------------------------------------------------V INPUT – 2 × V F (EQ. 13) To achieve high efficiency and low material cost, the lowest number of charge-pump stages, which can meet the above requirements, is always preferred. Charge Pump Output Capacitors Ceramic capacitor with low ESR is recommended. With ceramic capacitors, the output ripple voltage is dominated by the capacitance value. The capacitance value can be chosen by Equation 14: I OUT C OUT ≥ -----------------------------------------------------2 × V RIPPLE × f OSC (EQ. 14) where fOSC is the switching frequency. Discontinuous/Continuous Boost Operation and its Effect on the Charge Pumps The ISL97642 VON and VOFF architecture uses LX switching edges to drive diode charge pumps from which LDO regulators generate the VON and VOFF supplies. It can be appreciated that should a regular supply of LX switching FN6436.0 June 18, 2007 ISL97642 edges be interrupted (for example during discontinuous operation at light boost load currents), then this may affect the performance of VON and VOFF regulation – depending on their exact loading conditions at the time. To optimize VON/VOFF regulation, the boundary of discontinuous/continuous operation of the boost converter can be adjusted by suitable choice of inductor given VIN, VOUT, switching frequency and the VBOOST current loading, to be in continuous operation. Equation 15 gives the boundary between discontinuous and continuous boost operation. For continuous operation (LX switching every clock cycle) we require that: I ( v BOOST_load > D • 1 – D • V IN ⁄ 2 • L • f OSC ) (EQ. 15) where the duty cycle, D = (VBOOST – VIN)/VBOOST For example, with VIN = 5V, fOSC = 1.2MHz and VBOOST = 12V, we find continuous operation of the boost converter can be guaranteed for: L = 10µH and I(VBOOST) > 51mA L = 6.8µH and I(VBOOST) > 74mA L = 3.3µH and I(VBOOST) > 153mA 15 Start-up Sequence Figure 22 shows a detailed start-up sequence waveform. For a successful power-up, there should be 6 peaks at VCDEL. When a fault is detected, the device will latch off until either EN is toggled or the input supply is recycled. When the input voltage is higher than 2.4V, an internal current source starts to charge CCDEL. During the initial slow ramp, the device checks whether there is a fault condition. If no fault is found during the initial ramp, CCDEL is discharged after the first peak. VREF turns on at the peak of the first ramp. Initially, the boost is not enabled so VBOOST rises to VINVDIODE through the output diode. Hence, there is a step at VBOOST during this part of the start-up sequence. VBOOST soft-starts at the beginning of the third ramp, and is checked at the end of this ramp. The soft-start ramp depends on the value of the CDEL capacitor. For CDEL of 100nF, the soft-start time is ~7ms. VOFF turns on at the start of the fourth peak. VON is enabled at the beginning of the sixth ramp. VOFF and VON are checked at end of this ramp.

START-UP SEQUENCE Component Selection for Start-up Sequencing and Fault Protection The CREF capacitor is typically set at 220nF and is required to stabilize the VREF output. The range of CREF is from 22nF to 1µF and should not be more than five times the capacitor on CDEL to ensure correct start-up operation. The CDEL capacitor is typically 100nF and has a usable range from 22nF minimum to several microfarads – only limited by the leakage in the capacitor reaching µA levels. CDEL should be at least 1/5 of the value of CREF (see Figure 22). Note that 16 with 100nF on CDEL, the fault time-out will be typically 23ms and the use of a larger/smaller value will vary this time proportionally (e.g. 1µF will give a fault time-out period of typically 230ms). Fault Sequencing The ISL97642 has an advanced fault detection system, which protects the IC from both adjacent pin shorts during operation and shorts on the output supplies. A high quality layout/design of the PCB (in respect of grounding quality and decoupling) is necessary to avoid falsely triggering the fault FN6436.0 June 18, 2007 ISL97642 detection scheme – especially during start-up. The user is directed to the layout guidelines and component selection sections to avoid problems during initial evaluation and prototype PCB generation. VON -Slice Circuit series with the output. However, this will obviously reduce the gain. Another method of reducing peaking is to add a “snubber” circuit at the output. A snubber is a shunt load consisting of a resistor in series with a capacitor. Values of 150Ω and 10nF are typical. The advantage of a snubber is that it does not draw any DC load current and reduce the gain. The VON-slice Circuit functions as a three way multiplexer, switching the voltage on COM between ground, DRN and SRC, under control of the start-up sequence and the CTL pin. Over-Temperature Protection Once the start-up sequence has completed, CTL is enabled and acts as a multiplexer control such that if CTL is low, COM connects to DRN through a 5Ω internal MOSFET, and if CTL is high, COM connects to SRC via a 30Ω MOSFET. An internal temperature sensor continuously monitors the die temperature. In the event that the die temperature exceeds the thermal trip point, the device will be latched off until either the input supply voltage or enable is cycled. The slew rate of start-up of the switch control circuit is mainly restricted by the load capacitance at COM pin, as in Equation 16: Layout Recommendation Vg ΔV -------- = ----------------------------------( R i || R L ) • C L Δt (EQ. 16) Where Vg is the supply voltage applied to the switch control circuit, Ri is the resistance between COM and DRN or SRC including the internal MOSFET rDS(ON), the trace resistance and the resistor inserted; RL is the load resistance of the switch control circuit, and CL is the load capacitance of the switch control circuit. In the “Typical Application Circuit” on page 18, R8, R9 and C8 give the bias to DRN based on Equation 17: V ON • R 9 + A VDD • R 8 V DRN = ------------------------------------------------------------R8 + R9 (EQ. 17) and R10 can be adjusted to adjust the slew rate. Op Amps The ISL97642 has 3 amplifiers respectively. The op amps are typically used to drive the TFT-LCD backplane (VCOM) or the gamma-correction divider string. They feature rail-torail input and output capability. They are unity gain stable, and have low power consumption (typical 600μA per amplifier). The ISL97642 has a -3dB bandwidth of 12MHz while maintaining a 10V/μs slew rate. Short Circuit Current Limit The ISL97642 will limit the short circuit current to ±180mA if the output is directly shorted to the positive or the negative supply. If an output is shorted for a long time, the junction temperature will trigger the Over-Temperature Protection limit and, hence, the part will shut down. Driving Capacitive Loads ISL97642 can drive a wide range of capacitive loads. As load capacitance increases, however, the -3dB bandwidth of the device will decrease and the peaking will increase. The amplifiers drive 10pF loads in parallel with 10kΩ with just 1.5dB of peaking, and 100pF with 6.4dB of peaking. If less peaking is desired in these applications, a small series resistor (usually between 5Ω and 50Ω) can be placed in 17 The devices performance (including efficiency, output noise, transient response and control loop stability) is dramatically affected by the PCB layout. PCB layout is critical, especially at high switching frequency. There are some general guidelines for layout: 1. Place the external power components (the input capacitors, output capacitors, boost inductor and output diodes, etc.) in close proximity to the device. Traces to these components should be kept as short and wide as possible to minimize parasitic inductance and resistance. 2. Place VREF and VDD bypass capacitors close to the pins. 3. Reduce the loop with large AC amplitudes and fast slew rate. 4. The feedback network should sense the output voltage directly from the point of load, and be as far away from LX node as possible. 5. The power ground (PGND) and signal ground (SGND) pins should be connected at only one point. 6. The exposed die plate, on the underneath of the package, should be soldered to an equivalent area of metal on the PCB. This contact area should have multiple via connections to the back of the PCB as well as connections to intermediate PCB layers (if available) to maximize thermal dissipation away from the IC. 7. To minimize the thermal resistance of the package when soldered to a multi-layer PCB, the amount of copper track and ground plane area connected to the exposed die plate should be maximized and spread out as far as possible from the IC. The bottom and top PCB areas especially should be maximized to allow thermal dissipation to the surrounding air. 8. A signal ground plane, separate from the power ground plane and connected to the power ground pins only at the exposed die plate, should be used for ground return connections for feedback resistor networks (R1, R11, R41) and the VREF capacitor, C22, the CDELAY capacitor C7 and the integrator capacitor C23. 9. Minimize feedback input track lengths to avoid switching noise pick-up. A demo board is available to illustrate the proper layout implementation.
