11 / 13 page 2.7A, 1MHz, Low-Voltage, Step-Down Regulator with Internal Synchronous Rectification in QFN Package ______________________________________________________________________________________ 11 Soft-Start Soft-start allows a gradual increase of the internal cur- rent limit to reduce input surge currents at startup and at exit from shutdown. A timing capacitor, CSS, placed from SS to GND sets the rate at which the internal cur- rent limit is changed. Upon power-up, when the device comes out of undervoltage lockout (2.6V typ) or after the SHDN pin is pulled high, a 4µA constant-current source charges the soft-start capacitor and the voltage on SS increases. When the voltage on SS is less than approximately 0.7V, the current limit is set to zero. As the voltage increases from 0.7V to approximately 1.8V, the current limit is adjusted from 0 to the current-limit threshold (see the Electrical Characteristics). The volt- age across the soft-start capacitor changes with time according to the equation: The soft-start current limit varies with the voltage on the soft-start pin, SS, according to the equation: where ILIMIT is the current threshold from the Electrical Characteristics. The constant-current source stops charging once the voltage across the soft-start capacitor reaches 1.8V (Figure 5). Frequency Variation with Output Current The operating frequency of the MAX1843 is determined primarily by tOFF (set by RTOFF), VIN, and VOUT as shown in the following formula: fPWM = (VIN - VOUT - VPMOS) / [tOFF (VIN - VPMOS + VNMOS)] However, as the output current increases, the voltage drop across the NMOS and PMOS switches increases and the voltage across the inductor decreases. This causes the frequency to drop. The change in frequency can be approximated with the following formula: ∆fPWM = -IOUT x RPMOS / (VIN x tOFF) where RPMOS is the resistance of the internal MOSFETs (90m Ω typ). Circuit Layout and Grounding Good layout is necessary to achieve the MAX1843’s intended output power level, high efficiency, and low noise. Good layout includes the use of ground planes, careful component placement, and correct routing of traces using appropriate trace widths. The following points are in order of decreasing importance: 1) Minimize switched-current and high-current ground loops. Connect the input capacitor’s ground, the out- put capacitor’s ground, and PGND. Connect the resulting island to GND at only one point. 2) Connect the input filter capacitor less than 5mm away from IN. The connecting copper trace carries large currents and must be at least 1mm wide, preferably 2.5mm. 3) Place the LX node components as close together and as near to the device as possible. This reduces resistive and switching losses as well as noise. 4) Ground planes are essential for optimum perfor- mance. In most applications, the circuit is located on a multilayer board and full use of the four or more layers is recommended. For heat dissipation, con- nect the exposed backside pad to a large analog ground plane, preferably on a surface of the board that receives good airflow. If the ground plane is located on the IC surface, make use of the N.C. pins adjacent to GND to lower thermal resistance to the ground plane. If the ground is located elsewhere, use several vias to lower thermal resistance. Typical applications use multiple ground planes to minimize thermal resistance. Avoid large AC currents through the analog ground plane.
