LTC1174 LTC1174-3.3/LTC1174-5 High Efficiency Step-Down and Inverting DC/DC Converter U DESCRIPTIO FEATURES ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ The LTC®1174 is a simple current mode DC/DC converter ideally suited for 9V to 5V, 5V to 3.3V, or 5V to – 5V operation. With an internal 0.9Ω switch (at a supply voltage of 9V), the LTC1174 requires only four external components to construct a complete high efficiency DC/DC converter. High Efficiency: Up to 94% Peak Inductor Current Independent of Inductor Value Short-Circuit Protection Optimized for 5V to – 5V Applications Wide VIN Range: 4V to 18.5V Low Dropout Operation Low-Battery Detector Pin Selectable Current Limit Internal 0.9Ω Power Switch: VIN = 9V Only Four External Components Required 130µA Standby Current Active Low Micropower Shutdown Under a no load condition the LT1174 draws only 130µA. In shutdown, it draws a mere 1µA making this converter ideal for current sensitive applications. In dropout, the internal P-channel MOSFET switch is turned on continuously allowing the user to maximize the life of the battery source. The maximum inductor current of the LTC1174 family is pin selectable to either 340mA or 600mA, optimizing efficiency for a wide range of applications. Operation up to 200kHz permits the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors.

The off-time is set by an internal timing capacitor and the operating frequency is a function of VIN. The output voltage is set by an internal resistive divider (LTC1174-3.3 and LTC1174-5) or an external divider returned to VFB pin 1 (LTC1174). A voltage comparator A1 compares the divided output voltage to a reference voltage of 1.25V. To optimize efficiency, the LTC1174 automatically switches between continuous and Burst ModeTM operation. The voltage comparator is the primary control element when the device is in Burst Mode operation, while the current comparator controls the output voltage in continuous mode. During the switch“ON” time, switch current flows through the 0.1Ω sense resistor. When this current reaches the threshold of the current comparator A2, its output signal will change state, setting the flip-flop and turning the switch off. 6 1174 BD The timing capacitor, CT, begins to discharge until its voltage goes below VTH1. Comparator A4 will then trip, which resets the flip-flop and causes the switch to turn on again. Also, the timing capacitor is recharged. The inductor current will again ramp up until the current comparator A2 trips. The cycle then repeats. When the load is relatively light, the LTC1174 automatically goes into Burst Mode operation. The current mode loop is interrupted when the output voltage reaches the desired regulated value. The hysteretic voltage comparator A1 trips when VOUT is above the desired output voltage, shutting off the switch and causing the timing capacitor to discharge. This capacitor discharges past VTH1 until its voltage drops below VTH2. Comparator A5 then trips and a sleep signal is generated. In sleep mode, the LTC1174 is in standby and the load current is supplied by the output capacitor. All unused Burst ModeTM is a trademark of Linear Technology Corporation. LTC1174 LTC1174-3.3/LTC1174-5 U OPERATIO (Refer to Functional Diagram) circuitry is shut off, reducing quiescent current from 0.45mA to 0.13mA. When the output capacitor discharges by the amount of the hysteresis of the comparator A1, the P-channel switch turns on again and the process repeats itself. Operating Frequency and Inductor Since the LTC1174 utilizes a constant off-time architecture, its operating frequency is dependent on the value of VIN. The frequency of operation can be expressed as: V + VD IRIPPLE = 4 × 10−6 OUT L (A ) P− P By choosing a smaller inductor, a low ESR output filter capacitor has to be used (see CIN and COUT). Moreover, core loss will also increase (see Inductor Core Selection section) due to higher ripple current. (Hz) W U UO APPLICATI Although the size of the inductor does not affect the frequency, it does affect the ripple current. The peak-to-peak ripple current is given by: U 1 VIN − VOUT f= t OFF VIN + VD where tOFF = 4µs and VD is the voltage drop across the diode. Note that the operating frequency is a function of the input and ouput voltage. S I FOR ATIO 100 Inductor Core Selection Although higher inductance reduces core loss, it increases copper loss as it requires more windings. When space is not a premium larger gauge wire can be used to reduce the wire resistance. This also prevents excessive heat dissipation. EFFICIENCY (%) Core losses are dependent on the peak-to-peak ripple current and the core material. However it is independent of the physical size of the core. By increasing the inductance the inductor’s peak-to-peak ripple current will decrease, therefore reducing core loss. Utilizing low core loss material, such as molypermalloy or Kool Mµ will allow users to concentrate on reducing copper loss and preventing saturation. Figure 1 shows the effect of different core material on the efficiency of the LTC1174. The CTX core is Kool Mµ and the CTXP core is powdered iron (material 52).

To prevent large voltage transients, a low ESR input capacitor sized for 10 100 LOAD CURRENT (mA) 100 EFFICIENCY (%) With the value of L selected, the type of inductor must be chosen. Basically there are two kinds of losses in an inductor, core and copper 50 1 10 100 LOAD CURRENT (mA) 500 1174 F01 Figure 1. Efficiency Using Different Types of Inductor Core Material 7 LTC1174 LTC1174-3.3/LTC1174-5 W U U UO APPLICATI S I FOR ATIO the maximum RMS current must be used. The CIN RMS current is given by: VIN )] 1/ 2 (A ) RMS This formula has a maximum at VIN = 2VOUT, where IRMS = IOUT/2. This simple worst case is commonly used for design because even significant deviations do not offer much relief. Note that ripple current directly affects capacitor’s lifetime. DO NOT UNDERSPECIFY THIS COMPONENT. An additional 0.1µF ceramic capacitor is also required on VIN for high frequency decoupling. COUT To avoid overheating, the output capacitor must be sized to handle the ripple current generated by the inductor. The worst case RMS ripple current in the output capacitor is given by: ( The LTC1174 is protected from output short by its internal current limit. Depending on the condition of IPGM pin, the limit is either set to 340mA or 600mA. In addition, the offtime of the switch is increased to allow the inductor’s current to decay far enough to prevent any current build-up (see Figure 2). ) I IRMS ≈ PEAK A RMS 2 = 170mA or 300mA Although the output voltage ripple is determined by the hysteresis of the voltage comparator, ESR of the output capacitor is also a concern. Too high of an ESR will create a higher ripple output voltage and at the same time cause the LTC1174 to sleep less often. This will affect the efficiency of the LTC1174. For a given technology, ESR is a direct function of the volume of the capacitor. Several small-sized capacitors can also be paralleled to obtain the same ESR as one large can. Manufacturers such as Nichicon, Chemicon and Sprague should be considered for high performance capacitors. The OS-CON semiconductor dielectric capacitor available from Sanyo has the lowest ESR for its size, at a higher price. Catch Diode Selection The catch diode carries load current during the off-time. The average diode current is therefore dependent on the P-channel switch duty cycle. At high input voltages the diode conducts most of the time. As VIN approaches VOUT 8 Short-Circuit Protection IPGM = VIN 100mA/DIV IRMS ≈ [ ( IOUT VOUT VIN − VOUT the diode conducts only a small fraction of the time. The most stressful condition for the diode is when the output is short-circuited. Under this condition the diode must safely handle IPEAK at close to 100% duty cycle. A fast switching diode must also be used to optimize efficiency. Schottky diodes are a good choice for low forward drop and fast switching times. Most LTC1174 circuits will be well served by either a 1N5818, a MBRS140T3 or a MBR0520L Schottky diode. IPGM = 0 GND L = 100µH VIN = 13.5V 20µs/DIV 1174 F02 Figure 2.

The regulated output voltage is determined by: R2 VOUT = 1.25 1 + R1 For most applications, a 30k resistor is suggested for R1.
