Complete Si9138 Block Diagram DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION Shutdown Mode The logic threshold for the ON3 and ON5 pins is 1.6 V. Input voltage must be 0.8 V or less for logic low and 2.4 V or higher for logic high. Start-up Sequence Start-up is controlled by individual ON/OFF control. The 3.3 V output is controlled by ON 3 whilst the 5-V and the 5-12 V adjustable outputs are both controlled by ON 5. When both the 3.3-V and 5-V SMPS outputs are within tolerance and 32,000 clock cycles (typically equal to 107 mm) have elapsed since the second SMPS output went into regulation, the RESET pin will go high, signifying that all converters are operating correctly (see RESET Power Good Voltage Monitor). The Si9138 converts a 5.5-V to 30-V input voltage to five different output voltages; two buck (step-down) high current, PWM, switch-mode supplies of 3.3-V and 5-V, one Buck-Boost PWM switch-mode supply adjustable from 5 V to 12 V, one precision 3.3-V reference and one 5-V low drop out (LDO) linear regulator output. Switch-mode supply output current capabilities depend on external components (can be selected to exceed 10 A). In the standard application circuit illustrated in Figure 1, each buck converter is capable of delivering 5 A, with the Buck-Boost converter delivering 250 ma. The recommended load current for the precision 3.3-V reference output is less than 1 ma, and for the 5-DO output is less than 30 ma. In order to maximize power efficiency of the converter, when the 5-V buck converter output (FB5) voltage is above 4.5-V, the internal 5-DO is turned off and is supplied by the 5-V converter output. 12

New Product Si9138 DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION (CONT D) Buck Converter Operation: The 3.3-V and 5-V buck converters are both current-mode PWM and PSM (during light load operation) regulators using high-side bootstrap n-channel and low-side n-channel MOSFETs. At light load conditions, the converters switch at a lower frequency than the clock frequency. This operating condition is defined as pulse-skipping. The operation of the converter(s) switching at clock frequency is defined as normal operation. Normal Operation: Buck Converters In normal operation, the buck converter high-side MOSFET is turned on with a delay (known as break-before-make time - t BBM ), after the rising edge of the clock. After a certain on time, the high-side MOSFET is turned off and then after a delay (t BBM ), the low-side MOSFET is turned on until the next rising edge of the clock, or the inductor current reaches zero. The t BBM (approximately 25 ns to 60 ns), has been optimized to guarantee the efficiency is not adversely affected at the high switching frequency and a specified minimum to account for variations of possible MOSFET gate capacitances. During the normal operation, the high-side MOSFET switch on-time is controlled internally to provide excellent line and load regulation over temperature. Both buck converters should have load, line, regulation to within 0.5% tolerance. Pulse Skipping: Buck Converters When the buck converter switching frequency is less than the internal clock frequency, its operation mode is defined as pulse skipping mode. During this mode, the high-side MOSFET is turned on until V CS -V FB reaches 20 mv, or the on time reaches its maximum duty ratio. After the high-side MOSFET is turned off, the low-side MOSFET is turned on after the t BBM delay, which will remain on until the inductor current reaches zero. The output voltage will rise slightly above the regulation voltage after this sequence, causing the controller to stay idle for the next clock cycle, or several clock cycles. When the output voltage falls slightly below the regulation level, the high-side MOSFET will be turned on again at the next clock cycle. With the converter remaining idle during some clock cycles, the switching losses are reduced preserving conversion efficiency during the light output current condition. Current Limit: Buck Converters When the buck converter inductor current is too high, the voltage across pin CS3(5) and pin FB3(5) will exceed approximately 125 mv, causing the high-side MOSFET to be turned off instantaneously regardless of the input, or output condition. The Si9138 features clock cycle by clock cycle current limiting capability. Buck-Boost Converter Operation: Designed mainly for PCMCIA or EEPROM programming, the Si9138 has an adjustable 5-V to 12-V output non-isolated buck-boost converter, called for brevity a Buck-Boost. The input voltage range can span above or below the regulated output voltage. It consists of two n-channel MOSFET switches that are turned on and off in phase, and two diodes. Similar to the buck converter, during the light load conditions, the Buck-Boost converter will switch at a frequency lower than the internal clock frequency, which can be defined as pulse skipping mode (PSM); otherwise, it operates in normal PWM mode. The output voltage of the Buck-Boost converter is set by two resistors (R 5 and R 6, see Figure 1) where, R5 R 6 V BUBS V R REF 6 Normal Operation: Buck-Boost Converter In normal operation mode, the two MOSFETs are turned on at the rising edge of the clock, and then turned off. The on time is controlled internally to provide excellent load, line, and temperature regulation. The Buck-Boost converter has load, line and temperature regulation well within 0.5%. Pulse Skipping: Buck-Boost Converter Under the light load conditions, similar to the buck converter, the Buck-Boost converter will enter pulse skipping mode. The MOSFETs will be turned on until the inductor current increases to such a level that the voltage across the pin CSP and pin CSN reaches 410 mv, or the on time reaches the maximum duty cycle. After the MOSFETs are turned off, the inductor current will conduct through two diodes until it reaches zero. At this point, the Buck-Boost converter output will rise slightly above the regulation level, and the converter will stay idle for one or several clock cycle(s) until the output falls back slightly below the regulation level. The switching losses are reduced by skipping pulses preserving the efficiency during light load. 13

Si9138 New Product DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION (CONT D) Current Limit: Buck-Boost Converter Similar to the buck converter; when the voltage across pin CSP and pin CSN exceeds 410-mV typical, the two MOSFETs will be turned off regardless of the input and output conditions. Grounding: There are two separate grounds on the Si9138, analog signal ground (GND) and power ground (PGND). The purpose of two separate grounds is to prevent the high currents on the power devices (both external and internal) from interfering with the analog signals. The internal components of Si9138 have their grounds tied (internally) together. These two grounds are then tied together (externally) at a single point, to ensure Si9138 noise immunity. This separation of grounds should be maintained in the external circuitry, with the power ground of all power devices being returned directly to the input capacitors, and the small signal ground being returned to the GND pin of Si9138. RESET Handler The power-good monitor generates a system RESET signal. At first power-up (ON 3/5 going high), RESET is held low until the 3.3-V and 5-V outputs are in regulation and beyond the UVLO timer. At this point, an internal timer begins counting oscillator pulses and RESET continues to be held low until 32,000 cycles have elapsed. After this timeout period, 107 ms @ 300 khz, RESET is actively pulled up to, when the recommended 20-k resistor to is on the RESET pin. Output Overvoltage Protection The 5-V and 3.3-V SMPS outputs are monitored for overvoltage. If either output is typically more than 10% above the nominal regulation point, all low-side gate drivers are latched high until ON 3/5 is toggled. This action turns on the synchronous rectifier MOSFETs with a 100% duty cycle, in turn rapidly discharging the output capacitors and forcing all SMPS outputs to ground. Output Undervoltage Protection In Si9138, each of the 5-V and 3.3-V SMPS outputs has an undervoltage protection circuit that is activated 6,144 clock cycles (20.48 ms) after the SMPS is enabled. If either SMPS output is typically under 70% of the nominal value, all SMPSs are latched off and their outputs are clamped to ground by the synchronous rectifier MOSFETs. The SMPS will not restart until both ON3/5 is toggled. Stability: Buck Converters: In order to simplify designs, the 5-V and 3.3-V supplies do not require external frequency compensation. Meanwhile, it achieves excellent regulation and efficiency. The converters are current mode control, with a bandwidth substantially higher than the LC tank dominant pole frequency of the output filter. To ensure stability, the minimum capacitance and maximum ESR values are: V REF C LOAD 2 x x R CS x BW xrcs ESR V REF where V REF = 3.3 V, is the output voltage (5 V or 3.3 V), Rcs is the current sensing resistor in ohms and BW = 50 khz. With the components specified in the application circuit (L = 10 H, R CS = 0.02, C OUT = 330 F, ESR approximately 0.1, the converter should have a bandwidth of approximately 50 khz, with minimum phase margin of 65, and dc gain above 50 db. Other Outputs The Si9138 also provides a 3.3-V reference which can be externally loaded up to 1 ma, as well as, a 5-DO output which can be loaded up to 30 ma, or even more depending on the system application. When the 5-V buck converter is turned on, the 5-DO output is shorted with the 5-V buck converter output, so its loading capability is substantially increased. For stability, the 3.3-V reference output requires a 1- F capacitor, and the 5-DO output requires a 4.7- F capacitor. 14
