NCP1423
400 mA Sync−Rect PFM
Step−Up DC−DC Converter
with True−Cutoff and
Ring−Killer
NCP1423 is a monolithic micropower high frequency step−up
switching converter IC specially designed for battery operated
hand−held electronic products. It integrates Synchronous Rectifier for
improving efficiency as well as eliminating the external Schottky
Diode. High switching frequency (up to 600 kHz) allows low profile
inductor and output capacitor being used. When the IC is disabled,
internal conduction path from LX or BAT to OUT is blocked, OUT pin
is isolated from the battery. This achieves True−Cutoff. Ring−Killer is
also integrated to eliminate the high frequency ringing in discontinuous
conduction mode. Low−Battery Detector, Cycle−by−Cycle Current
Limit, Overvoltage Protection and Thermal Shutdown provide
value−added features for various battery operated application. With all
of these functions ON, the quiescent supply current is only 9.0 mA. This
device is available in compact Micro10 package.

NCP1423
DETAILED OPERATION DESCRIPTION
NCP1423 is a monolithic micropower high−frequency
step−up voltage switching converter IC specially designed
for battery operated hand−held electronic products up to
200 mA loading. It integrates a Synchronous Rectifier to
improving efficiency as well as to eliminate the external
Schottky diode. High switching frequency (up to 600 kHz)
allows for a low profile inductor and output capacitor to be
used. Low−Battery Detector, Logic−Controlled Shutdown
and Cycle−by−Cycle Current Limit provide value−added
features for various battery−operated applications. With all
these functions ON, the quiescent supply current is typical
only 9 mA typical. This device is available in compact
Micro10 package.
introduced to make sure M1 is completely turned OFF
before M2 is being turned ON.
The previously mentioned situation occurs when the
regulator is operating in CCM, M2 is being turned OFF, M1
is just turned ON, and M2 is not being completely turned
OFF, A dead time is also needed to make sure M2 is
completely turned OFF before M1 is being turned ON.
As coil current is dropped to zero when the regulator is
operating in DCM, M2 should be OFF. If this does not occur,
the reverse current flows from the output bulk capacitor
through M2 and the inductor to the battery input, causing
damage to the battery. The ZLC comparator comes with
fixed offset voltage to switch M2 OFF before any reverse
current builds up. However, if M2 switch OFF too early,
large residue coil current flows through the body diode of
M2 and increases conduction loss. Therefore, determination
on the offset voltage is essential for optimum performance.
With the implementation of synchronous rectification
scheme, efficiency can be as high as 90% with this device.
PFM Regulation Scheme
From the detailed block diagram (Figure 2), the output
voltage is divided down and fed back to Pin 3 (FB). This
voltage goes to the non−inverting input of the PFM
comparator whereas the comparator’s inverting input is
connected to the internal voltage reference, REF. A
switching cycle is initiated by the falling edge of the
comparator, at the moment the main switch (M1) is turned
ON. After the maximum ON−time (typical 1.4 mS) elapses
or the current limit is reached, M1 is turned OFF, and the
synchronous switch (M2) is turned ON. The M1 OFF time
is not less than the minimum OFF−time (typically 0.20 mS),
which ensure complete energy transfer from the inductor to
the output capacitor. If the regulator is operating in
continuous conduction mode (CCM), M2 is turned OFF just
before M1 is supposed to be ON again. If the regulator is
operating in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), which
means the coil current will decrease to zero before the new
cycle start, M1 is turned OFF as the coil current is almost
reaching zero. The comparator (ZLC) with fixed offset is
dedicated to sense the voltage drop across M2 as it is
conducting, when the voltage drop is below the offset, the
ZLC comparator output goes HIGH, and M2 is turned OFF.
Negative feedback of closed loop operation regulates
voltage at Pin 3 (FB) equal to the internal divide down
reference voltage times (0.5 V).
Cycle−by−Cycle Current Limit
In Figure 2, SENSEFET is used to sample the coil current
as M1 is ON. With that sample current flowing through a
sense resistor, a sense−voltage is developed. Threshold
detector (ILIM) detects whether the sense−voltage is higher
than the preset level. If the sense voltage is higher than the
present level, the detector output notifies the Control Logic
to switch OFF M1, and M1 can only be switched ON when
the next cycle starts after the minimum OFF−time (typically
0.20 mS). With proper sizing of SENSEFET and sense
resistor, the peak coil current limit is typically set at 1.2 A.
Voltage Reference
The voltage at REF is typically set at 1.2 V and can output
up to 2.5 mA with load regulation ±2.0%, at VOUT equal to
3.3 V. If VOUT is increased, the REF load capability can also
be increased. A bypass capacitor of 200 nF is required for
proper operation when REF is not loaded. If REF is loaded,
1.0 mF capacitor at REF pin is needed.
True−Cutoff
The NCP1423 has a True−Cutoff function controlled by
the EN pin (Pin 1). Internal circuitry can isolate the current
through the body diode of switch M2 to load. Thus, it can
eliminate leakage current from the battery to load in
shutdown mode and significantly reduces battery current
consumption during shutdown. The shutdown function is
controlled by the voltage at Pin 1 (EN). When Pin 1 is pulled
to lower than 0.5 V, the controller enters shutdown mode. In
shutdown mode, when the switches M1 and M2 are both
switched OFF, the internal reference voltage of the
controller is disable and the controller typically consumes
only 600 nA of current. If the Pin 1 voltage is raised to higher
than 0.5 V, for example, by a resistor connected to VIN, the
Synchronous Rectification
The Synchronous Rectifier is used to replace the Schottky
Diode to reduce the conduction loss contributed by the
forward voltage of the Schottky Diode. The Synchronous
Rectifier is normally realized by PowerFET with gate
control circuitry that incorporates relatively complicated
timing concerns.
As the main switch (M1) is being turned OFF and the
synchronous switch M2 is just turned ON with M1 not being
completely turned OFF, current is shunt from the output bulk
capacitor through M2 and M1 to ground. This power loss
lowers overall efficiency and possibly damage the switching
FETs. As a general practice, certain amount of dead time is

low side switch. When this occurs, Pin 10 becomes high
impedance and its voltage is pulled high again.
Low−Battery Detection
Auto discharge function is using for ensure the output
voltage status after the power down occur. This function is
using for communication with a digital signal. When auto
discharge function is enabled, the ADEN is set high; the
output capacitor will be discharged after the device is
shutdown. The capacitors connected to the output are
discharged by an integrated switch of 100 W. The residual
voltage on VOUT will be less than 0.4 V after auto discharge.
Auto Discharge
A comparator with 15 mV hysteresis is applied to perform
the low−battery detection function. When Pin 9 (LBI) is at
a voltage (defined by a resistor divider from the battery
voltage) lower than the internal reference voltage of 0.5 V,
the comparator output turns on a 50 W low side switch. It
pulls down the voltage at Pin 10 (LBO) which has hundreds
of kW of pull−high resistance. If the Pin 9 voltage is higher
than 0.5 V+15 mV, the comparator output turns off the 50 W
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Output Voltage Setting
Capacitors Selection
A typical application circuit is shown in Figure 1, The
output voltage of the converter is determined by the external
feedback network comprised of R1 and R2 and the
relationship is given by:
In all switching mode boost converter applications, both
the input and output terminals see impulsive voltage /
current waveforms. The currents flowing into and out of the
capacitors multiply with the Equivalent Series Resistance
(ESR) of the capacitor to produce ripple voltage at the
terminals. During the Syn−Rect switch−off cycle, the
charges stored in the output capacitor are used to sustain the
output load current. Load current at this period and the ESR
combined and reflect as ripple at the output terminals. For all
cases, the lower the capacitor ESR, the lower the ripple
voltage at output. As a general guideline, low ESR
capacitors should be used.

where R3 and R4 are the upper and lower divider resistors
respectively.
Inductor Selection
The NCP1423 is tested to produce optimum performance
with a 5.6 mH inductor at VIN = 1.3 V, VOUT = 3.3 V,
supplying an output current up to 200 mA. For other input
/ output requirements, inductance in the range 3 mH to 10 mH
can be used according to end application specifications.
Selecting an inductor is a compromise between output
current capability, inductor saturation limit and tolerable
output voltage ripple. Low inductance values can supply
higher output current but also increase the ripple at output
and decrease efficiency. On the other hand, high inductance
values can improve output ripple and efficiency; however,
it also limited the output current capability at the same time.
Another parameter of the inductor is its DC resistance.
This resistance can introduce unwanted power loss and
reduce overall efficiency. The basic rule is to select an
inductor with lowest DC resistance within the board space
limitation of the end application.
Grounding
A star−ground connection should be used to connect the
output power return ground, the input power return ground,
and the device power ground together at one point. All
high−current paths must be as short as possible and thick
enough to allow current to flow through and produce
insignificant voltage drop along the path. The feedback
signal path must be separated from the main current path and
sense directly at the anode of the output capacitor.
Components Placement
Power components (i.e. input capacitor, inductor and
output capacitor) must be placed as close together as
possible. All connecting traces must be short, direct and
thick. High current flowing and switching paths must be
kept away from the feedback (FB, Pin 3) terminal to avoid
unwanted injection of noise into the feedback path.

Practically, a one level larger capacitor will be used to
accommodate factors not taken into account in the
calculations. Therefore, a capacitor value of 22 mF is
selected. The NCP1423 is internal compensated for most

compensation adjustment to improve system dynamics.
