Circuit Descriptin THEOY OF OPEATION Intrductin The I3622 is a versatile device fr high perfrmance buck cnverters. It cnsists f tw synchrnus buck cntrllers which can be perated either in tw independent utputs mde r in current share single utput mde fr high current applicatins. The timing f the IC is prvided by an internal scillatr circuit which generates tw 80 -ut-fphase clck signals that can be externally prgrammed up t 600kHz per phase. Prgrammable Enable Input The enable features anther level f flexibility fr start up. The Enable has precise threshld which is internally mnitred by under-vltage lckut circuit. It s threshld can be externally prgrammed t desired level by using tw external resistrs, s the cnverter desn t start up until the input vltage is sufficiently high (see figure 3). Under-Vltage Lckut The under-vltage lckut circuit mnitrs fur signals (Vcc, VcH, VcH2 and Enable). This ensures the crrect peratin f the cnverter during pwer up and pwer dwn sequence. The driver utputs remain in the ff state whenever ne f these signals drp belw set threshlds. Nrmal peratin resumes nce these signals rise abve the set values. Figure 3 shws a typical start up sequence.

Internal egulatr The I3622 features an n-bard 7.2V regulatr with shrt circuit prtectin. The regulatr is capable f surcing current up t 00mA. This integrated regulatr can be used t generate the necessary bias vltage fr drivers, an example f hw this can be used is shwn in figure 23, page26. Out-f-Phase Operatin The I3622 drives its tw utput stages 80 utf-phase. In current share mde single utput, the tw inductr ripple currents cancel each ther and result in a reductin f the utput current ripple and yield a smaller utput capacitr fr the same vltage ripple requirement. Figure 4 shws tw channels inductr current and the resulting vltage ripple at the utput. HDV MS Current Nrmalized (I MS /I ut ) In additin, the 80 ut f phase cntributes t input current cancellatin. This results in much smaller input capacitr s MS current and reduces the number f required input capacitrs. Figure 5 shws the equivalent MS current. Single Phase 2 Phase Duty Cycle (V/Vin) Fig. 5: Input MS value vs. Duty Cycle HDV2 IL 0 DT T IL2 Mde Selectin The I3622 can perate as a dual utput independently regulated buck cnverter, r as a 2 phase single utput buck cnverter (current share mde). The SS2 pin is used fr mde selectin. In current share mde this pin shuld be flating. In the dual utput mde, a sft start capacitr must be cnnected frm this pin t the grund t prgram the start time fr the secnd utput. Ic Fig. 4: Current ripple cancellatin fr utput I Independent Mde In this mde the I3622 prvides cntrl t tw independent utput pwer supplies with either cmmn r different input vltages. The utput vltage f each individual channel is set and cntrlled by the utput f the errr amplifier, which is the amplified errr signal frm the sensed utput vltage and the reference vltage. The errr amplifier utput vltage is cmpared t the ramp signal thus generating fixed frequency pulses f variable duty-cycle, (PWM) which are applied t the internal MOSEFT drivers. Figure 24 shws a typical schematic fr such applicatin.

Current Share Mde This feature allws t cnnect bth utputs tgether t increase current handling capability f the cnverter t supprt a cmmn lad. In the current sharing mde, errr amplifier becmes the master which regulates the cmmn utput vltage and the errr amplifier 2 perfrms the current sharing functin, figure 6 shws the cnfiguratin f errr amplifier 2. In this mde, I3622 makes sure the master channel starts first fllwed by slave channel t prevent any glitch during start up. This is dne by clamping the utput f slave s errr amplifier until the master channel generates the first PWM signal. At n lad cnditin the slave channel may be kept ff depending n the ffset f the errr amplifier. Lssless Inductr Current Sensing The I3622 uses a lssless current sensing fr current share purpses. The inductr current is sensed by cnnecting a series resistr and a capacitr netwrk in parallel with the inductr and by measuring the vltage acrss the capacitr. The measured vltage is prprtinal t the inductr current. This is shwn figure 6. The vltage acrss the inductr s DC can be expressed by: L VL ( s ) ( Vin Vut ) * - - - -( ) + sl Cmbining equatins (),(2) and (3) result in the fllwing expressin fr V C : Usually the resistr and C are chsen s that the time cnstant f and C equals the time cnstant f the inductr which is the inductance L ver the inductr s DC ( L ). If the tw time cnstants match, the vltage acrss C is prprtinal t the current thrugh L, and L V ( s ) I * L L L - - - -( 2 ) The vltage acrss the C can expressed by: sc V ( s ) ( V V ) * - - - -( 3 ) C in ut + sc V C ( s ) I L L + sl * + s * C - - - -( 4 ) Vin Vin Q2 Q3 Q4 Master Phase IL L L + VL (s) - C 2 L2 VP2 FB2 + VC(s) - L2 Fig. 6: Lss Less inductr current sensing and current sharing C2 Slave Phase VOUT the sense circuit can be treated as if nly a sense resistr with the value L was used. If : C V ( s ) I L * C L * The mismatch f the time cnstant des nt affect the measurements f inductr DC current, but affects the AC cmpnent f the inductr current. Sft-Start The I3622 has prgrammable sft-start t cntrl the utput vltage rise and limit the inrush current during start-up. It prvides a separate sft-start functin fr each utput. This will enable t sequence the utputs by cntrlling the rise time f each utput thrugh selectin f different value sft-start capacitrs. T ensure crrect start-up, the sft-start sequence initiates when the Vcc, VcH, VcH2 and Enable rise abve their threshld and generate the Pwer On eset (PO) signal. Sft-start functin perates by surcing an internal current t charge an external capacitr t abut 3V. Initially, the sft-start functin clamps the errr amplifier s utput f the PWM cnverter. L L 2

Sft-Start (cnt.) During pwer up, the cnverter utput starts at zer and thus the vltage at Fb is abut 0V. An internal vltage-cntrlled current surce (64uA) injects current int the Fb pin and generates a vltage abut.6v (64ux25K) acrss the negative input f errr amplifier, see figure 7. This keeps the utput f the errr amplifier lw. The magnitude f this current is inversely prprtinal t the vltage at the sft-start pin. The 23uA current surce starts t charge up the external capacitr. In the mean time, the sftstart vltage ramps up, the current flwing int Fb pin starts t decrease linearly and s des the vltage at the negative input f errr amplifier. When the sft-start vltage reaches abut V, the vltage at the negative input f the errr amplifier is apprximately 0.8V. As the sft-start capacitr vltage charges up, the current flwing int the Fb pin keeps decreasing. The feedback vltage increases linearly as the injecting current ges dwn. The injecting current drps t zer when sft-start vltage is arund.8v and the utput vltage ges int steady state. Figure 8 shws the theretical peratinal wavefrms during sft-start. The utput start-up time is the time perid when sft-start capacitr vltage increases frm V t.8v. The start-up time will be dependent n the size f the external sft-start capacitr.

Over-Current Prtectin The ver current prtectin is perfrmed by sensing current thrugh the ds(n) f the lw side MOSFET (Q2). This methd enhances the cnverter s efficiency and reduce cst by eliminating a current sense resistr. As shwn in figure 3, an external resistr ( SET ) is cnnected between the OCSet pin and the drain f Q2 which sets the current limit set pint. 23uA SS / SD 20 28uA 3uA OCP The internal current surce develps a vltage acrss SET. When the Q2 is turned n, the inductr current flws thrugh the Q2 and results in a vltage drp which is given by: V OCSet Hiccup Cntrl (I OCSet I3622 IOCSET OCSet ) ( OCSet ds(n) I ) SET L - - - -(6) Q Q2 L VOUT Fig. 4: 3uA current surce fr discharging sft-start capacitr during hiccup The OCP circuit starts sampling current when the lw gate drive is abut 3V.

This trips the OCP cmparatr and cycles the sft start functin in hiccup mde. The hiccup is perfrmed by charging and discharging the sft-start capacitr at a certain slpe rate. As shwn in figure 4 the 3uA current surce is used t discharge the sft-start capacitr. The OCP cmparatr resets after every sft start cycles, and the cnverter stays in this mde until the verlad r shrt circuit is remved. The cnverter will autmatically recver.

The I3622 current limit is designed primarily as shrt circuit prtectin, "n blw up" circuit, and desn't perate as a precisin current regulatr. When the SS2 is flating, an ver current cnditin n either phase wuld result in hiccup current prtectin. 6

Pre-Bias The I3622 is able t start up int pre-charged utput, which prevents scillatin and disturbances f the utput vltage. The utput starts in asynchrnus fashin and keeps the synchrnus MOSFET ff until the first gate signal fr cntrl MOSFET is generated. Figure belw shws a typical Pre-Bias cnditin at start up. Depending n system cnfiguratin, specific amunt f utput capacitance may be required t prevent discharging the utput vltage. Operating Frequency Selectin The switching frequency is determined by cnnecting an external resistr (t) t grund. Figure 6 prvides a graph f scillatr frequency versus t.

A separate OVP circuit is prvided fr each channel. The OVP threshld is user prgrammable and can be set by tw external resistrs. Upn vervltage cnditin f either ne f the utputs, the OVP frces a latched shutdwn n the fault utput. In this mde, the upper FET driver turns ff and the lwer FET drivers turn n, thus crwbaring the utput. eset is perfrmed by recycling the Vcc r Enable. Pwer Gd The I3622 prvides tw separate pen cllectr pwer gd signals which reprt the status f the utputs. The utputs are sensed thrugh the tw dedicated V SEN and V SEN2 pins. Once the I3622 is enabled and the utputs reach the set value (90% f the Vut set pint) the pwer gd signals g pen and stay pen as lng as the utputs stay within the set values. These pins need t be externally pulled high. Shutdwn using Sft Start pins The utputs can be shutdwn by pulling the sftstart pins belw 0.3V. This can be easily dne by using an external small signal transistr. During shutdwn bth MOSFET drivers will be turned ff. Nrmal peratin will resume by cycling sft start pin.

Synchrnizatin will be enabled by the rising edge at an external clck. Per channel switching frequency is set by external resistr (t). The free running frequency scillatr frequency is twice the perchannel frequency. During synchrnizatin, t is selected such that the free running frequency is 20% belw the synchrnizatin frequency. Synchrnizatin capability is prvided fr bth single utput current share mde and dual utput cnfiguratin. The sync pin is nise immune, when unused it shuld be left flating. Thermal Shutdwn Temperature sensing is prvided inside I3622. The trip threshld is typically set t 40 C. When trip threshld is exceeded, thermal shutdwn turns ff bth MOSFETs. Thermal shutdwn is nt latched and autmatic restart is initiated when the sensed temperature drps t the nrmal range. There is a 20 C (typical) hysteresis in the shutdwn threshld. 7

Applicatin Infrmatin Design Example: The fllwing is a design f typical single utput current share applicatin fr I3622. The applicatin circuit is shwn n page 26. V V. 8V I in 2V,( ± 0%) 40A V 30mV F 375kHz s Output Vltage Prgramming Output vltage is prgrammed by reference vltage and external vltage divider. As shwn in figure 7 the Fb pin is the inverting input f the errr amplifier, which is internally referenced t 0.8V. The divider is set t prvide 0.8V at the Fb pin when the utput is at its desired value. The utput vltage is defined by the fllwing equatin: Sft-Start Prgramming The sft-start timing can be prgrammed by selecting the sft-start capacitance value. The start-up time f the cnverter can be calculated using the fllwing expressin: C ( nf) 28. 75( µ A) T ( ms) - - - -(0) SS * Where T start is the desired start-up time (ms) Fr a start-up time f 5ms, the sft-start capacitr will be 0.5uF. Chse a ceramic capacitr at 0.5uF. Input Capacitr Selectin The 80 ut f phase will reduce the MS value f the ripple current seen by input capacitrs. This reduces numbers f input capacitrs. The input capacitrs must be able t handle bth the maximum ripple MS current at the highest ambient temperature, as well as the maximum input vltage. The MS value f current ripple fr a duty cycle under 50% is expressed by: start Fig. 7: Typical applicatin f the I3622 fr prgramming the utput vltage V V EF I3622 + Fb - - - -(8 ) Equatin (8) can be rewritten as: Fr the calculated values f 5 and 6 feedback cmpensatin sectin. 6 5 Vref 5 6 V V ref - - - -(9 ) VOUT 6 5 see 2 2 ( I D ( D ) + I D ( D ) 2I I DD ) - - - -() I MS 2 2 2 2 2 Where: -I MS is the MS value f the input capacitr current -D and D 2 are duty cycle fr each channel -I and I 2 are the utput current fr each channel Fr I40A and D0.6 (.8V/0.8V), the I MS 9.43A. Ceramic capacitrs are recmmended due t their peak current capabilities. They als feature lw ES and ESL at higher frequency, which enhance circuit efficiency. Use 0x22uF, 6V ceramic capacitr frm TDK (C3225X5C226M). Fr the single utput applicatin when the duty cycle is larger than 50% the fllwing equatin can be used t calculate the ttal MS current fr the input capacitr current: ( 2D ( D) + ( 2 2D) ) D 0.5 I I > MS O 8

Inductr Selectin The inductr is selected based n utput pwer, perating frequency and efficiency requirements. Lw inductr value results in large ripple current, smaller size, faster respnse t a lad transient but pr efficiency and high utput nise. Generally, the selectin f inductr value can be reduced t desired maximum ripple current in the inductr ( i ). The ptimum pint is usually fund between 20% and 50% ripple f the utput current. Fr the buck cnverter, the inductr value fr desired perating ripple current can be determined using the fllwing relatin: Where: Fr 2-phase single utput applicatin the inductr ripple current is chsen between 20-50% f maximum phase current If V in L t Turn n time L 0.4uH i V V L t D in ; t F V Output Vltage V V i * F ( V V ) - - - -(2) F Switching frequency in Maximum input vltage i Inductr ripple current s D Duty cycle i 50%( I ), then the utput inductr will be: The Cilcraft MLC260-40ML (L 0.4uH, 20A, L 0.93mOhm) is a lw prfile inductr suitable fr this applicatin. Use the fllwing equatin t calculate C and fr current sensing: (refer t figure 6 n page 2) This results t C uf and 0.432K in L * C L s s Output Capacitr Selectin The vltage ripple and transient requirements determine the utput capacitrs types and values. The criteria is nrmally based n the value f the Equivalent Series esistance (ES). Hwever the actual capacitance value and the Equivalent Series Inductance (ESL) are ther cntributing factrs. The verall utput vltage ripple can be expressed as: V V where: V V V ( ES) ( ESL) ( C) + V I * ES Vin * ESL L IL 8 * C * F + V - - - -(3) V Output vltage ripple I Inductr ripple current L ( ES) L s ( ESL) ( C) Therefre it is recmmended t select utput capacitr with lw enugh ES t meet utput ripple and step lad transient requirements. The utput ripple is highest at maximum input vltage since i increases with input vltage. Special Plymer capacitrs ffers lw ES with large strage capacity per unit vlume. These capacitrs ffer a cst effective utput capacitr slutin and are ideal chice when cmbined with a cntrller having high lp bandwidth. The I3622 can perfrm well with all types f capacitrs. Panasnic EEFSXOD22 (SP, 220F, 2V, 9mOhm) is selected fr this design. Equatin (3) can be used t calculate the required ES fr the specific vltage ripple. Fur SP capacitrs wuld meet the vltage ripple requirement. 9

Pwer MOSFET Selectin The I3622 uses tw N-Channel MOSFETs per channel. The selectin criteria t meet pwer transfer requirements are based n maximum drain-surce vltage (V DSS ), gate-surce drive vltage (V gs ), maximum utput current, Onresistance DS(n), and thermal management. The MOSFET must have a maximum perating vltage (V DSS ) exceeding the maximum input vltage (V in ). The gate drive requirement is almst the same fr bth MOSFETs. Lgic-level transistr can be used and cautin shuld be taken with devices at very lw gate threshld vltage (V gs ) t prevent undesired turn-n f the cmplementary MOSFET, which results a sht-thrugh current. The ttal pwer dissipatin fr MOSFETs includes cnductin and switching lsses. Fr the Buck cnverter the average inductr current is equal t the DC lad current. The cnductin lss is defined as: 2 P (upperswitch) I D ϑ cnd lad ds(n) 2 Pcnd (lwerswitch) Ilad ds(n) ( D) ϑ ϑ temperatur e dependency ds(n) The DS(n) temperature dependency shuld be cnsidered fr the wrst case peratin. This is typically given in the MOSFET data sheet. Ensure that the cnductin lsses and switching lsses d nt exceed the package ratings r vilate the verall thermal budget. Fr this design, IF6622 is selected fr cntrl FET and IF6629 is selected fr synchrnus FET. These devices prvide lw n resistance in a cmpact Direct FET package. The MOSFETs have the fllwing data: CntrlFET(IF6622) : V ds 25V,Q 87. nc @ 0V ds(n) 6.3mΩ @ V The cnductin lsses will be: P cn.w/phase The switching lss is mre difficult t calculate, even thugh the switching transitin is well understd. The reasn is the effect f the parasitic cmpnents and switching times during the switching prcedures such as turn-n / turnff delays and rise and fall times.

The synchrnus MOSFET turns n under zer vltage cnditins, therefre, the turn n lsses fr synchrnus MOSFET can be neglected. With a linear apprximatin, the ttal switching lss can be expressed as: Vds( ff ) t + t r f Psw * * Ilad - - - (3A) 2 T Where: V ds(ff) Drain t surce vltage at the ff time t r ise time t f Fall time T Switching perid I lad Lad current The switching time wavefrms is shwn in figure8.

T achieve fast transient respnse and accurate utput regulatin, a cmpensatin circuit is necessary. The gal f the cmpensatin netwrk is t prvide a clsed lp transfer functin with the highest 0dB crssing frequency and adequate phase margin (greater than 45 ). The utput LC filter intrduces a duble ple, 40dB/decade gain slpe abve its crner resnant frequency, and a ttal phase lag f 80 (see figure 9). The resnant frequency f the LC filter expressed as fllws: F LC Figure 9 shws gain and phase f the LC filter. Since we already have 80 phase shift just frm the utput filter, the system risks being unstable. 0dB Gain The I3622 s errr amplifier is a differential-input transcnductance amplifier. The utput is available fr DC gain cntrl and AC phase cmpensatin. The E/A can be cmpensated either in type II r type III cmpensatin. When it is used in type II cmpensatin the transcnductance prperties f the E/A becme evident and can be used t cancel ne f the utput filter ples. This will be accmplished with a series C circuit frm Cmp pin t grund as shwn in figure 20. This methd requires that the utput capacitr has enugh ES t satisfy stability requirements. In general the utput capacitr s ES generates a zer typically at 5kHz t 50kHz which is essential fr an acceptable phase margin.

Prgramming the Current-Limit The Current-Limit threshld can be set by cnnecting a resistr ( SET ) frm drain f lw side MOSFET t the OCSet pin. The resistr can be calculated by using equatin (7). The ds(n) has a psitive temperature cefficient and it shuld be cnsidered fr the wrse case peratin. This resistr must be placed clse t the IC, place a small ceramic capacitr frm this pin t grund fr nise rejectin purpses.

Layut will affect nise pickup and can cause a gd design t perfrm with less than expected results. Start t place the pwer cmpnents, make all the cnnectin in the tp layer with wide, cpper filled areas. The inductr, utput capacitr shuld be clse t each ther as pssible. This helps t reduce the EMI radiated by the pwer traces due t the high switching currents thrugh them. Place input capacitr clse t cntrl FETs, t reduce the ES replace the single input capacitr with tw parallel units. The feedback part f the system shuld be kept away frm the inductr and ther nise surces, and be placed clse t the IC. In multilayer PCB use ne layer as pwer grund plane and have a cntrl circuit grund (analg grund), t which all signals are referenced. The gal is t lcalize the high current path t a separate lp that des nt interfere with the mre sensitive analg cntrl functin. These tw grunds must be cnnected tgether n the PC bard layut at a single pint. The expsed pad f IC shuld be cnnected t analg grund. 25

PCB Metal and Cmpnents Placement Lead land width shuld be equal t nminal part lead width. The minimum lead t lead spacing shuld be 0.2mm t minimize shrting. Lead land length shuld be equal t maximum part lead length + 0.3 mm utbard extensin + 0.05mm inbard extensin. The utbard extensin ensures a large and inspectable te fillet, and the inbard extensin will accmmdate any part misalignment and ensure a fillet. Center pad land length and width shuld be equal t maximum part pad length and width. Hwever, the minimum metal t metal spacing shuld be 0.7mm fr 2 z. Cpper ( 0.mm fr z. Cpper and 0.23mm fr 3 z. Cpper). A single 0.30mm diameter via shall be placed in the center f the pad land and cnnected t grund t minimize the nise effect n the IC. 28

Slder esist The slder resist shuld be pulled away frm the metal lead lands by a minimum f 0.06mm. The slder resist mis-alignment is a maximum f 0.05mm and it is recmmended that the lead lands are all Nn Slder Mask Defined (NSMD). Therefre pulling the S/ 0.06mm will always ensure NSMD pads. The minimum slder resist width is 0.3mm. At the inside crner f the slder resist where the lead land grups meet, it is recmmended t prvide a fillet s a slder resist width f 0.7mm remains. The land pad shuld be Slder Mask Defined (SMD), with a minimum verlap f the slder resist nt the cpper f 0.06mm t accmmdate slder resist mis-alignment. In 0.5mm pitch cases it is allwable t have the slder resist pening fr the land pad t be smaller than the part pad. Ensure that the slder resist in-between the lead lands and the pad land is 0.5mm due t the high aspect rati f the slder resist strip separating the lead lands frm the pad land. The single via in the land pad shuld be tented r plugged frm bttm bardside with slder resist. 29

Stencil Design The stencil apertures fr the lead lands shuld be apprximately 80% f the area f the lead lands. educing the amunt f slder depsited will minimize the ccurrence f lead shrts. Since fr 0.5mm pitch devices the leads are nly 0.25mm wide, the stencil apertures shuld nt be made narrwer; penings in stencils < 0.25mm wide are difficult t maintain repeatable slder release. The stencil lead land apertures shuld therefre be shrtened in length by 80% and centered n the lead land. The land pad aperture shuld be striped with 0.25mm wide penings and spaces t depsit apprximately 50% area f slder n the center pad. If t much slder is depsited n the center pad the part will flat and the lead lands will be pen. The maximum length and width f the land pad stencil aperture shuld be equal t the slder resist pening minus an annular 0.2mm pull back t decrease the incidence f shrting the center land t the lead lands when the part is pushed int the slder paste. 30
