XC9515 Series ETR0706-008 2 channel Synchronous Step-Down DC/DC Converter with Manual Reset ■GENERAL DESCRIPTION The XC9515 series consists of 2 channel synchronous step-down DC/DC converters and a voltage detector with delay circuit built-in. The DC/DC converter block incorporates a P-channel 0.35Ω (TYP.) driver transistor and a synchronous N-channel 0.35Ω (TYP.) switching transistor. By minimizing ON resistance of the built-in transistors, the XC9515 series can deliver highly efficient and a stable output current up to 800mA. With high switching frequencies of 1MHz, a choice of small inductor is possible. The series has a built-in UVLO (under-voltage lock-out) function, therefore, the internal P-channel driver transistor is forced OFF when input voltage becomes 1.8V or lower (for XC9515A, 2.7V or lower). The voltage detector block can be set delay time freely by connecting an external capacitor. With the manual reset function, the series can output a reset signal at any time. ■APPLICATIONS ■FEATURES DC/DC Block Input Voltage Range Output Voltage ●DVDs : 2.5V∼5.5V : VOUT1=1.2V∼4.0V VOUT2=1.2V∼4.0V (Accuracy ±2%) Oscillation Frequency : 1MHz (Accuracy ±15%) High Efficiency : 95% (VIN=5V, VOUT=3.3V) Output Current : 800mA Control : PWM control Protection Circuits : Thermal Shutdown : Integral Latch (Over Current Limit) : Short Protection Circuit Ceramic Capacitor Compatible Voltage Detector (VD) Block Detect Voltage Range : 2.0∼5.5V(Accuracy ±2%) Delay Time : 173 ms (When Cd=0.1μF is connected) Output Configuration : N-channel open drain Package : QFN-20 ●Blu-ray Disk ●LCD TVs, LCD modules ●Multifunctional printers ●Photo printers ●Set top boxes ■TYPICAL APPLICATION CIRCUIT ■ TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS ● Efficiency vs. Output Current L1 VOUT1 VIN=5V,FOSC=1MHz VIN=5V, fOSC=1MHz, L=4.7μH (CDRH4D28C) L=4.7uH(CDRH4D28C),CIN=10uF(ceramic),CL=10uF(ceramic) EN1 VIN CIN=10μF (ceramic), CL=10μF (ceramic) 100 EN2 VOUT=3.3V VOUT 1 NC PVSS 1 MR MR NC AVSS PVSS 2 NC LX2 NC PVDD 2 VDOUT Cd NC VOUT 2 Cd Efficiency[%] CL1 EN2 EN1 NC PVDD 1 CIN1 LX1 90 80 70 60 VOUT=1.5V 50 40 30 20 VOUT=1.8V 10 RUP CIN2 L2 CL2 VDOUT 0 1 10 100 Output Current : IOUT [mA] 1000 VOUT2 1/21 20 PVDD1 19 NC 18 LX1 17 EN1 ■PIN CONFIGURATION 16 EN2 XC9515 Series Vout1 15 1 NC MR 14 2 PVSS1 AVSS 13 NC 7 4 PVSS2 5 NC PVDD2 6 NC 9 VDOUT 10 QFN-20 (BOTTOM VIEW) LX2 8 CD 12 Vout2 11 3 NC ※1 ■ PIN ASSIGNMENT QFN-20 PIN NUMBER PIN NAME FUNCTION PIN NUMBER PIN NAME FUNCTION 1 NC No Connection 11 VOUT2 Output Voltage Sense 2 2 P_VSS1 Power Ground 1 12 Cd Delay Capacitor Connection Analog Ground 3 NC No Connection 13 A_VSS 4 P_VSS2 Power Ground 2 14 MR Manual Reset 5 NC No Connection 15 VOUT1 Output Voltage Sense1 6 P_VDD2 Power Supply 2 16 EN2 CH2 ON/OFF Control 7 NC No Connection 17 EN1 CH1 ON/OFF Control 8 LX2 Switching Output 2 18 LX1 Switching Output 1 9 NC No Connection 19 NC No Connection 10 VDOUT Voltage Detector output 20 P_VDD1 Power Supply 1 *1 Back metal pad voltage :VSS level (The back metal pad should be soldered to enhance mounting strength and heat release.

The series ICs compare, using the error amplifier, the voltage of the internal voltage reference source with the feedback voltage from VOUT pin through split resistors, RFB1 and RFB2. Phase compensation is performed on the resulting error amplifier output, to input a signal to the PWM comparator to determine the turn-on time during PWM operation. The PWM comparator compares, in terms of voltage level, the signal from the error amplifier with the ramp wave from the ramp wave circuit, and delivers the resulting output to the buffer driver circuit to cause the Lx pin to output a switching duty cycle. This process is continuously performed to ensure stable output voltage. The current feedback circuit monitors the P-channel driver transistor current for each switching operation, and modulates the error amplifier output signal to provide multiple feedback signals. This enables a stable feedback loop even when a low ESR capacitor, such as a ceramic capacitor, is used, ensuring stable output voltage. <Reference Voltage Source> The reference voltage source provides the reference voltage to ensure stable output voltage of the DC/DC converter. <Ramp Wave Circuit> The ramp wave circuit determines switching frequency. The frequency is fixed internally at 1MHz. Clock pulses generated in this circuit are used to produce ramp waveforms needed for PWM operation, and to synchronize all the internal circuits. <Error Amplifier> The error amplifier is designed to monitor output voltage. The amplifier compares the reference voltage with the feedback voltage divided by the internal split resistor, RFB1 and RFB2. When a voltage lower than the reference is fed back, the output voltage of the error amplifier increases. The gain and frequency characteristics of the error amplifier output are fixed internally to deliver an optimized signal to the mixer. <Current Limit> The current limiter circuit of the XC9515 series monitors the current flowing through the P-channel MOS driver transistor connected to the Lx pin, and features a combination of the current limit mode and the latch mode. ①When the driver current is greater than a specific level (peak value of coil current), the current limit function operates to off the pulses from the Lx pin at any giving timing. ②When the driver transistor is turned off, the limiter circuit is then released from the current limit detection state. ③At the next pulse, the driver transistor is turned on. However, the transistor is immediately turned off in the case of an over current state. ④When the over current is eliminated, the IC resumes its normal operation. The IC waits for the over current state to end by repeating the steps ① to ③. If an over current state continues for a few ms and the above three steps are repeatedly performed, the IC performs the function of latching the OFF state of the driver transistor. Both two DC/DC blocks stop operations when either CH1 or CH2 of protection circuit is activated. At this time, both Lx1 and Lx2 become high impedance. Once the IC is in latch mode, operations can be resumed by either turning the IC off after letting EN1 and EN2 pins down to low level, or by restoring power. For restoring power, the IC should be turned off after P_VDD1 and P_VDD2 voltages drop below the low level of EN1 and EN2 pin.)The latch operation can be released from the current limit detection state because of the circuit’s noise. Also, depending on the state of the PC Board, latch time may become longer and latch operation may not work. In order to avoid the effect of noise, the board should be laid out so that capacitors are placed as close to the chip as possible. Limit < # ms 10/21 Limit < # ms XC9515 Series ■OPERATIONAL EXPLANATION (Continued) <Thermal Shutdown> For protecting the IC from heat damage, the thermal shutdown circuit monitors the chip temperature. When the chip temperature reaches 150℃, the thermal shutdown circuit operates and the driver transistor will be set to OFF. As the chip temperature drops to 130℃ by stopping current flow, the soft-start function operates to turn the output on. <Short-Circuit Protection> The short-circuit protection circuit monitors the FB voltage. If the output is shorted incorrectly with the ground, the short-circuit protection circuit operates and turns the driver transistor off to latch when the FB voltage becomes less than half of the setting voltage. Both two DC/DC blocks stop operations when either CH1 or CH2 of protection circuit is activated. At this time, both Lx1 and Lx2 become high impedance. Once the IC is in latch mode, operations can be resumed by either turning the IC off after letting both ends of EN1 and EN2 pins down to low level, or by restoring power. (The P_VDD1 and P_VDD2 voltages should be less than the low level of the EN1 and EN2 pins when restoring power.) <Soft Start Function> The soft-start circuit protects against inrush current, when the power is switched on, and also to protect against voltage overshoot. It should be noted, however, that this circuit does not protect the load capacitor (CL) from inrush current. With the Vref voltage limited and depending upon the input to the error amps, the operation maintains a balance between the two inputs of the error amps and controls the EXT1 pin's ON time so that it doesn't increase more than is necessary. <UVLO Circuit> When the VIN pin voltage becomes1.8V (TYP.) or lower (for XC9515A, 2.7V or lower), the P-channel output driver transistor is forced OFF to prevent false pulse output caused by unstable operation of the internal circuitry. When the VIN pin voltage becomes 1.9V (TYP.) or higher (for XC9515A, 3.0V or lower), switching operation takes place. By releasing the UVLO function, the IC performs the soft-start function to initiate output startup operation. <Voltage Detector Block> The series' detector function monitors the voltage divided by resistors connected to the P_VDD1 pin, as well as monitoring the voltage of the internal reference voltage source via the comparator. Because of hysteresis at the detector function, output at the VDOUT pin will invert when the sense pin voltage of the detector block (P_VDD1) increases above the release voltage (105% of the detect voltage). The output configuration of the VDOUT pin is N-channel open drain, therefore, a pull-up resistor is required. The voltage detector block has a manual reset (MR) pin. By setting the MR pin at low level, the VDOUT pin is forced to be at low level. By connecting a capacitor (Cd) to the Cd pin, the XC9515 series can set a delay time to VDOUT pin’s output signal when releasing voltage. The delay time can be calculated from the internal resistance, Rdelay (2.5MΩ fixed TYP.) and the value of Cd as per the following equation. As selecting the capacitor (Cd), the delay time can be set freely. tDR (Delay time) =Cd x Rdelay x 0.69 ●Release Delay Delay Capacity Cd [μF] 0.01 0.022 0.047 0.1 0.22 0.47 1 Release Delay tDR (TYP.)

Even where either CH1 or CH2 is used, both P_VDD1 and P_VDD2 pins should have the same electrical potential. Applying the electrical potential to only one side causes malfunction. Also the same electrical potential should be applied to the P_VSS1, P_VSS2 and A_VSS pins. 3. The XC9515 series is designed for use with ceramic output capacitors. If, however, the potential difference between dropout voltage or output current is too large, a ceramic capacitor may fail to absorb the resulting high switching energy and the output could be unstable. If the input-output potential difference is large, use a larger output capacitor to compensate for insufficient capacitance. 4. When the peak current, which exceeds limit current flows within the specified time, the built-in driver transistor is turned off (the integral latch circuit). During the time until it detects limit current and before the built-in transistor can be turned off, the current for limit current flows; therefore, care must be taken when selecting the rating for the coil. 5. When the input voltage is low, limit current may not be reached because of voltage falls caused by ON resistance or serial resistance of the coil. 6. Since the potential difference for input voltage has occurred to the both ends of a coil, the time changing rate of the coil current is large when the P-channel driver transistor is ON. On the other hand, since the VOUT pin short-circuits to the GND when the N-channel transistor is ON and there is almost no potential difference of the coil both ends, the time changing rate of the coil current becomes very small. This operation is repeated and the delay time of the circuit also influences, therefore, the coil current is converged on the current value beyond the amount of current which should be restricted essentially. The short-circuit protection does not operate during the soft-start time. As soon as the soft-start time finishes, the short-circuit protection starts to operate and the circuit becomes disable. The delay time of the circuit also influences when step-down ratio is large, as the result, a current more than over current limit may flow. Please do not exceed the absolute maximum ratings of the coil. ① ② ③ ④ ⑤ A current flows to the driver transistor up to the current limit (ILIM). For the delay time of the circuit, a current more than the ILIM flows after the ILIM decide until the P channel driver transistor turns off. Time changing rate of the coil current becomes very small because there is no potential difference between both ends of the coil. The Lx pin oscillates a narrow pulse during the soft-start time because of the current limit. The circuit is latched since the short-circuit protection operates and the P-channel driver transistor is turned off. # ms 12/21 XC9515 Series ■NOTES ON USE (Continued) 7. Driving current below the minimum operating voltage may lead malfunction to the UVLO circuit because of the noise. 8. Depending on the PC board condition, the latch function may be released from limit current detection state and the latch time may extend or fail to reach the latch operation. Please locate the input capacitance as close to the IC as possible. 9. Spike noise and ripple voltage arise in a switching regulator as with a DC/DC converter. These are greatly influenced by external component selection, such as the coil inductance, capacitance values, and board layout of external components. Once the design has been completed, verification with actual components should be done. 10. With the DC/DC converter block of the IC, the peak current of the coil is controlled by the current limit circuit. Since the peak current increases when dropout voltage or load current is high, current limit starts operating, and this can lead to instability. When peak current becomes high, please adjust the coil inductance value and fully check the circuit operation. In addition, please calculate the peak current according to the following formula: Peak current: Ipk = (VIN - VOUT) x OnDuty / (2 x L x fosc) + IOUT L: Coil Inductance Value, fOSC: Oscillation Frequency 11. When the load current is light in PWM control, very narrow pulses will be outputted, and there is the possibility that some cycles may be skipped completely. 12. When the difference between VIN and VOUT is small, and the load current is heavy, very wide pulses will be outputted and there is the possibility that some cycles may be skipped completely. 13. If the power input pin voltage is assumed to decrease rapidly (ex. from 6.0V to 0V) at the release of the operation although delay capacitance (Cd) pin is connected, please connect an Shottky barrier diode between the power input (P_VDD1) pin and the delay capacitance (Cd) pin. 14. Please connect a pull-up resistor with 100 to 200kΩ to the output pin of the voltage detector block (VDOUT). 15. The delay time of the voltage detector block in heavy load may extend because of the noise of the DC/DC block. Precipitous and large voltage fluctuation at the power input pin may cause malfunction of the IC. 16. Use of the IC at voltages below the minimum operating voltage may lead the output voltage drop before achieving over current limit. 17. When P_VDD1 and P_VDD2 power supply pins and EN1 and EN2 enable pins are in undefined states, the latch protection circuit may not be reset so that the IC operation does not start correctly. Power supply and enable pins (EN1,EN2) should be grounded before starting the IC operation. 【Undefined state conditions for each pin】 P_VDD1=P_VDD2=0.1V ~ 1.2V VEN1=VNE2= 0.4V ~ 1.2V 18. UVLO function works even if when VIN input voltage falls below the UVLO voltage in very short time period like a few ten nanoseconds. ●Instruction on Pattern Layout 1. In order to stabilize VIN's voltage level, we recommend that a by-pass capacitor (CIN1 and CIN2) be connected as close as possible to the P_VDD1・P_VDD2 pins and P_VSS1・P_VSS2 pins. 2. Please mount each external component as close to the IC as possible. 3. Wire external components as close to the IC as possible and use thick, short connecting traces to reduce the circuit impedance. 4. Make sure that the VSS traces are as thick as possible, as variations in the VSS potential caused by high VSS currents at the time of switching may result in instability of the DC/DC converter. 13/21 XC9515 Series ■TEST CIRCUITS Wave Form Measurement Point < Test Circuit No.1 > Wave Form Measurement Point A L CL LX1 EN1 PVDD1 EN2 PVSS1 PVSS2 VOUT1 MR AVSS CD VOUT2 VDOUT CIN CIN PVDD2 CL L LX2 V A V Wave Form Point Wave FormMeasurement Measurement Point ※ External Components L : 4.7μH(CDRH4D28C : SUMIDA) CIN : 10μF (ceramic) CL : 10μF (ceramic) Wave Form Measurement Point Wave Form Measurement Point < Test Circuit No.2 > A A 1μF V V LX1 EN1 PVDD1 EN2 PVSS1 PVSS2 VOUT1 MR AVSS CD VOUT2 VDOUT PVDD2 A LX2 V Wave Wave FormForm Measurement Point Measurement Point < Test Circuit No.3 > 100mA A V 1μF 100mA A 14/21 V LX1 EN1 PVDD1 EN2 PVSS1 PVSS2 VOUT1 MR AVSS CD VOUT2 VDOUT PVDD2 LX2 XC9515 Series ■TEST CIRCUITS (Continued) Wave Form Measurement Point Wave Form Measurement Point 15/21 XC9515 Series ■TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS (1) Efficiency vs. Output Current VIN=5V,FOSC=1MHz L=4.7uH(CDRH4D28C),CIN=10uF(ceramic),CL=10uF(ceramic) 100 VOUT=3.3V Efficiency: EFFI (%) Efficiency[%] 90 80 70 60 VOUT=1.5V 50 40 30 20 VOUT=1.8V 10 0 1 10 100 Output Current : IOUT [mA] Output Current: IOUT (mA) 1000 (2) Output Voltage vs. Output Current VOUT=1.5V VIN=5.0V L:4.7uH(CDRH4D28C),CIN=10uF(ceramic),CL=10uF(ceramic) VOUT=1.8V VIN=5. 0V L:4.7uH(CDRH4D28C),CIN=10uF(ceramic),CL=10uF(ceramic) 1.90 Output Voltage : VOUT[V] Output VoltageVOUT : VOUT[V] Output Voltage: (V) 1.60 1.55 1.50 1.45 1 10 100 Output Current : IOUT[mA] Output Current: IOUT (mA) 1000 VOUT=3.3V VIN=5.0V L:4.7uH(CDRH4D28C),CIN=10uF(ceramic),CL=10uF(ceramic) 3.40 Output Voltage: VOUT (V) Output Voltage : VOUT[V] 1.80 1.75 1.70 1.40 3.35 3.30 3.25 3.20 1 16/21 1.85 10 100 Output Current : IOUT[mA] Output Current: IOUT (mA) 1000 1 10 100 Output Current : IOUT[mA] Output Current: IOUT (mA) 1000 XC9515 Series ■TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS (Continued) (3) Output Voltage vs. Ambient Temperature VVout=1.2V OUT=1.2V VVout=1.5V OUT=1.5V V IN=2.5V,3.0V,4.0V,5.0 V,5.5V L:4.7 uH(CDRH 4D28C),CIN =10uF(ce ramic),CL=10uF(ceramic) 1.30 1.60 1.25 1.55 Output Voltage:Vout1[v] Output Voltage:Vout1[v] V IN=2.5V,3.0V,4.0V,5.0V,5.5 V L:4.7uH(CDRH 4D28C),CIN =10uF(c eram ic ),CL=10uF(ce ramic) 1.20 1.15 VIN=2.5V,3.0V,4.0V,5.0V,5.5V 1.10 1.05 1.50 1.45 VIN=2.5V,3.0V,4.0V,5.0V,5.5V 1.40 1.35 1.30 1.00 -50 -25 0 25 50 75 -50 100 -25 VVout=1.8V OUT=1.8V V IN=2.5V,3.0V,4.0V,5.0V,5.5 V L:4.7uH(CDRH 4D28C),CIN =10uF(c eram ic ),CL=10uF(ce ramic) 50 75 100 VOUT=3.3V Vout=3.3V VIN =4.0V,5.0 V,5.5V L:4.7 uH(CDRH 4D28C),CIN =10uF(ce ramic),CL=10uF(ceramic) 1.90 3.40 1.85 3.35 Output Voltage:Vout2[v] Output Voltage:Vout1[v] 25 Ambient T emperature:Ta[℃ ] Ambient Temperature:Ta[℃ ] 1.80 1.75 0 VIN=2.5V,3.0V,4.0V,5.0V,5.5V 1.70 1.65 3.30 3.25 VIN=4.0V,5.0V,5.5V 3.20 3.15 3.10 1.60 -50 -25 0 25 50 75 100 -50 -25 0 25 50 75 100 Ambient Temperature:Ta[℃ ] Ambient Temperature:Ta[℃ ] (4) Oscillation Frequency vs. Ambient Temperature OscillationFrequency: FrequencyfOSC (MHz) Oscillation :FOSC[MHz] fOSC=1MHz FOSC=1MHz VIN=2.5V,3.0V,4.0V,5.0V,5.5V L:4.7uH(CD RH4D28C),CIN =10uF(ceramic),CL=10uF(ceramic) 1.2 1.1 1.0 0.9 VIN=2.5V,3.0V,4.0V,5.0V,5.5V 0.8 0.7 -50 -25 0 25 50 75 100 Ambient Temperature:Ta[℃ ] 17/21 XC9515 Series ■TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS (Continued) (5) Load Transient Response VIN=5V, VOUT1=1.5V, VOUT2=3.3V, fOSC=1MHz VIN=5V,VOUT1=1.5V,VOUT2=3.3V,FOSC=1MHz, VOUT1=200mV/div VOUT1=200mV/div VOUT2=200mV/div VOUT2=200mV/div IOUT1=200mA IOUT1=1mA IOUT1=200mA IOUT1=1mA 50μs/div 50μs/div 200μs/div 200μs/div VIN=5V, VOUT1=1.5V, VOUT2=3.3V, fOSC=1MHz VIN=5V,VOUT1=1.5V,VOUT2=3.3V,FOSC=1MHz, VOUT1=200mV/div VOUT1=200mV/div VOUT2=200mV/div VOUT2=200mV/div IOUT1=800mA IOUT1=200mA IOUT1=800mA IOUT1=200mA 50μs/div 50μs/div 200μs/div 200μs/div VIN=5V, VOUT1=1.5V, VOUT2=3.3V, fOSC=1MHz VIN=5V,VOUT1=1.5V,VOUT2=3.3V,FOSC=1MHz, VOUT1=200mV/div VOUT1=200mV/div VOUT2=200mV/div VOUT2=200mV/div IOUT2=200mA IOUT2=1mA IOUT2=200mA IOUT2=1mA 50μs/div 50μs/div 200μs/div 200μs/div VIN=5V, VOUT1=1.5V, VOUT2=3.3V, fOSC=1MHz VIN=5V,VOUT1=1.5V,VOUT2=3.3V,FOSC=1MHz, VOUT1=200mV/div VOUT1=200mV/div VOUT2=200mV/div VOUT2=200mV/div IOUT2=800mA IOUT2=200mA IOUT2=200mA 50μs/div 50μs/div 18/21 IOUT2=800mA 200μs/div 200μs/div XC9515 Series ■PACKAGING INFORMATION Unit: mm ●QFN-20 (0.2) 4.00±0.10 1 PIN INDENT +0.03 0.02 -0.02 4.00±0.10 0.75±0.05 7 8 9 10 5 11 4 12 3 13 2 14 1 15 19 18 17 16 ●QFN-20 Reference Pattern Layout ●QFN-20 Reference Metal Mask Design 4.6 3.2 0.3 3.3 4.6 3.2 2.7 0.3 1.1 4.5 3.3 4.5 20 *The solder filet may not be formed because of no plating at side.
