If stand-alone capability is required, the +5V supply can be generated with an external linear regulator. To minimize crosstalk, the controller has seven supply pins: VDDP (2 pins), PGND1 (2 pins), PGND2, VCCA and AGND. The controller requires its own AGND plane which should be tied by a single trace to the negative terminal of the output capacitor. All external components referenced to AGND in the schematic should then be connected to the AGND plane. The supply decoupling capacitor should be tied between VCCA and AGND. A single 10Ω resistor should be used to decouple the VCCA supply from the main VDDP supply. PGND can then be a separate plane which is not used for routing analog traces. All PGND connections should connect directly to this plane with special attention given to avoiding indirect connections between AGND and PGND which will create ground loops. As mentioned above, the AGND plane must be connected to the PGND plane at the negative terminal of the output capacitor. The VDDP input provides power to the upper and lower gate drivers. A decoupling capacitor for the VDDP supply and PGND is recommended. No series resistor between VDDP and the 5 volt bias is required. Pseudo-Fixed Frequency Constant On-Time PWM Controller The PWM control method is a constant-on-time, pseudo- fixed frequency PWM controller, see Figure 1. The ripple voltage seen across the output capacitor’s ESR provides the PWM ramp signal, eliminating the need for a current sense resistor. The on-time is determined by a one-shot whose period is proportional to output voltage, and in- versely proportional to input voltage. A separate one-shot sets the minimum off-time (typically 425ns). On-Time One-Shot (T ON) The on-time one-shot comparator has two inputs. One input looks at the output voltage, while the other input samples the input voltage and converts it to a proportional current. This current charges an internal on-time capaci- tor. The TON time is the time required for this capacitor to charge from zero volts to VOUT, thereby making the on-time of the high-side switch directly proportional to output voltage and inversely proportional to input volt- age. This implementation results in a nearly constant switching frequency without the need of a clock generator. ns 50 IN V OUT V ) 3 37x10 (RTON 12 3.3x10 ON T RTON is a resistor connected between the input supply and the TON pin. VDDQ/VTT Enable & Power-Save The EN/PSV pin controls the VDDQ supply and the REF output (1/2 of VDDQ). VTTEN enables the VTT supply. The VTT and VDDQ supplies may be enabled independently. When EN/PSV is tied to VCCA the VDDQ controller is en- abled in power-save mode. When the EN/PSV pin is floated, an internal resistor divider activates the VDDQ controller with power-save disabled. If PSAVE is enabled, the SC488 PSAVE comparator looks for inductor current to cross zero on eight consecutive cycles. Once observed, the controller enters power-save and turns off the low-side MOSFET when the current crosses zero. To improve the efficiency and add hysteresis, the on-time is increased by 20% in power- save. The efficiency improvement at light loads more than offsets the disadvantage of slightly higher output ripple. If the inductor current does not cross zero on any switching cycle, the controller immediately exits power-save. Since the controller counts zero crossings, the converter can sink current as long as the current does not cross zero on eight consecutive cycles. This allows the output voltage to recover quickly in response to negative load steps even when power-save is enabled. VDDQ Voltage Selection VDDQ voltage is set using the FB pin. Grounding FB sets VDDQ to fixed 2.5V. Connecting FB to +5V sets VDDQ to fixed 1.8V. VDDQ can also be adjusted from 1.5 to 3.0V using external resistors, see Figure 2. The voltage at FB is then compared to the internal 1.5V reference. To VDDQ output capacitor To SC488 FB (pin 9) C R3 R2 Figure 2 |
