Triple-Output Buck Controller with Tracking/Sequencing
General Description
The MAX15003 is a triple-output, pulse-width-modulated (PWM), step-down DC-DC controller with tracking and sequencing capability. The device operates over the input voltage range of 5.5V to 23V or 5V 10%. Each PWM controller provides an adjustable output down to 0.6V and delivers up to 15A for each output with excellent load and line regulation. The MAX15003 is optimized for high-performance, small-size power management solutions. The options of coincident tracking, ratiometric tracking, and output sequencing allow the tailoring of the powerup/power-down sequence depending on the system requirements. Each of the MAX15003 PWM sections utilizes a voltage-mode control scheme with external compensation allowing for good noise immunity and maximum flexibility with a wide selection of inductor values and capacitor types. Each PWM section operates at the same, fixed switching frequency that is programmable from 200kHz to 2.2MHz and can be synchronized to an external clock signal using the SYNC input. Each converter operating at up to 2.2MHz with 120 out-of-phase, increases the input capacitor ripple frequency up to 6.6MHz, thereby reducing the RMS input ripple current and the size of the input bypass capacitor requirement significantly. The MAX15003 includes internal input undervoltage lockout with hysteresis, digital soft-start/soft-stop for glitch-free power-up and power-down of each converter. The power-on reset (RESET) with an adjustable timeout period monitors all three outputs and provides a RESET signal to the processor when all outputs are within regulation. Protection features include lossless valley-mode current limit and hiccup mode output short-circuit protection. The MAX15003 is available in a space-saving, 7mm x 7mm, 48-pin TQFN-EP package and is specified for operation over the -40C to +125C automotive temperature range. See the MAX15002 data sheet for a dual version of the MAX15003.

Pin Description
PIN 1 NAME CT FUNCTION RESET Timeout Capacitor Connection. Connect a timing capacitor from CT to SGND to set the RESET delay. CT sources 2A into the timing capacitor. When the voltage at CT passes 2V, open-drain RESET goes high impedance. Supply Input Connection. Connect to an external voltage source from 5.5V to 23V. For 4.5V to 5.5V input application, connect IN and REG together. 5V Regulator Output. Bypass with a 2.2F ceramic capacitor to SGND. Track/Sequence Select Input. Connect SEL to REG to configure as a triple tracker at startup or connect SEL to SGND to configure as a triple sequencer or leave SEL unconnected to configure as a dual tracker and independent sequencer. Note: When configured as a triple sequencer, each rail is independently enabled using the EN_. Controller 1 Power-Ground Connection. Connect the input filter capacitor's negative terminal, the source of the synchronous MOSFET, and the output filter capacitor's return to PGND1. Connect externally to SGND at a single point near the input capacitor return terminal. Controller 1 Low-Side Gate Driver Output. DL1 is the gate driver output for the synchronous MOSFET. Controller 1 Low-Side Gate Driver Supply. Connect externally to REG and the anode of the boost diode. Connect a minimum of 0.1F ceramic capacitor from DREG1 to PGND1. Controller 1 High-Side MOSFET Source Connection/Synchronous MOSFET Drain Connection. Connect the inductor and the negative side of the boost capacitor to LX1. Controller 1 High-Side Gate Driver Output. DH1 drives the gate of the high-side MOSFET. Controller 1 High-Side Gate Driver Supply. Connect BST1 to the cathode of the boost diode and to the positive terminal of the boost capacitor. Controller 1 Negative Current-Sense Input. Connect CSN1 to the synchronous MOSFET drain (connected to LX1). When using a current-sense resistor, connect CSN1 to the junction of a low-side MOSFET's source and the current-sense resistor. See Figure 11. Controller 1 Positive Current-Sense Input. Connect CSP1 to the synchronous MOSFET source (connected to PGND1). When using a current-sense resistor, connect CSP1 to the PGND1 end of the current-sense resistor. Controller 1 Valley Current-Limit Set Output. Connect a 25k to 150k resistor, RILIM1, from ILIM1 to SGND to program the valley current-limit threshold from 50mV to 300mV. ILIM1 sources 20A out to RILIM1. The resulting voltage divided by 10 is the valley current-limit threshold. When using a precision current-sense resistor, connect a resistive divider from REG to ILIM1 to SGND to set the valley current limit. See Figure 11. Controller1 Error Transconductance Amplifier Output. Connect COMP1 to the compensation feedback network. Controller 1 Enable Input. EN1 must be above 1.24V, VEN-TH, for the PWM controller to start Output 1. Controller 1 is the master. Use the master as the highest output voltage in a coincident tracking configuration.

Detailed Description
The MAX15003 is a triple-output, pulse-width-modulated (PWM), step-down, DC-DC controller with tracking and sequencing options. The device operates over the input voltage range of 5.5V to 23V or 5V 10%. Each PWM controller provides an adjustable output down to 0.6V and delivers up to 15A load current with excellent load and line regulation. Each of the MAX15003 PWM sections utilizes a voltage-mode control scheme for good noise immunity and offers external compensation allowing for maximum flexibility with a wide selection of inductor values and capacitor types. The device operates at a fixed switching frequency that is programmable from 200kHz to 2.2MHz and can be synchronized to an external clock signal using the SYNC input. Each converter, operating at up to 2.2MHz with 120 out-of-phase, increases the input capacitor ripple frequency up to 6.6MHz, reducing the RMS input ripple current and the size of the input bypass capacitor requirement significantly.
The MAX15003 provides either coincident tracking, ratiometric tracking, or sequencing. This allows tailoring of the power-up/power-down sequence depending on the system requirements. The MAX15003 features lossless valley-mode currentlimit protection by monitoring the voltage drop across the synchronous MOSFET's on-resistance to sense the inductor current. The MAX15003's internal current source exhibits a positive temperature coefficient to help compensate for the MOSFET's temperature coefficient. Use an external voltage-divider when a more precise current limit is desired. This divider along with a precision shunt resistor allows for more accurate current limit. The MAX15003 includes internal undervoltage lockout with hysteresis, digital soft-start/soft-stop for glitch-free power-up and power-down of the converters. The power-on reset (RESET) with adjustable timeout period monitors all three outputs and provides a RESET signal to a system controller/processor indicating when all outputs are within regulation. Protection features include lossless valley-mode current limit and hiccup mode output short-circuit protection.

Triple-Output Buck Controller with Tracking/Sequencing
Internal Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
VIN must exceed the default UVLO threshold before any operation can commence. The UVLO circuitry keeps the MOSFET drivers, oscillator, and all the internal circuitry shut down to reduce current consumption. The UVLO rising threshold is 4.05V with 350mV hysteresis. an RC filter (1 to 3.3 and 2.2F in parallel to 0.1F ceramic capacitors are typical) from REG to DREG_ filters out high-peak currents. Alternatively, DREG can be connected to an external source (VDREG-EXT). Note that the DREG voltage should be high enough to fully enhance the low-side MOSFET. To avoid partial enhancing of the MOSFETs, use the VDREG-EXT to set the UVLO externally using EN1. BST_ supplies the power for the high-side MOSFET drivers. Connect the bootstrap diode from BST_ to DREG_ (anode at DREG_ and cathode at BST_). Connect a bootstrap 0.1F or higher ceramic capacitor between BST_ and LX_. Though not always necessary, it may be useful to insert a small resistor (4.7 to 22) in series with the BST_ pin and the cathode of the bootstrap diode for additional noise immunity. The high-side (DH_) and low-side (DL_) drivers drive the gates of the external n-channel MOSFETs. The drivers' 2A peak source- and sink-current capability provides ample drive for the fast rise and fall times of the switching MOSFETs. Faster rise and fall times result in reduced switching losses. The gate driver circuitry also provides a break-beforemake time (20ns typ) to prevent shoot-through currents during transition.
MAX15003
Digital Soft-Start/Soft-Stop
The MAX15003 soft-start feature allows the load voltage to ramp up in a controlled manner, eliminating outputvoltage overshoot. Soft-start begins after VIN exceeds the undervoltage lockout threshold and the enable input is above 1.24V. The soft-start circuitry gradually ramps up the reference voltage. This controls the rate of rise of the output voltage and reduces input surge currents during startup. The soft-start duration is 2048 clock cycles. The output voltage is incremented through 64 equal steps. The output reaches regulation when soft-start is completed, regardless of output capacitance and load. Soft-stop commences when the enable input falls below 1.12V. The soft-stop circuitry ramps down the reference voltage controlling the output voltage rate of fall. The output voltage is decremented through 64 equal steps in 2048 clock cycles.
Internal Linear Regulator (REG)
REG is the output terminal of a 5V LDO powered from IN that provides power to the IC. Connect REG externally to DREG to provide power for the low-side MOSFET gate driver. Bypass REG to SGND with a minimum 2.2F ceramic capacitor. Place the capacitor physically close to the MAX15003 to provide good bypassing. REG is intended for powering only the internal circuitry and should not be used to supply power to external loads. REG can source up to 120mA. This current, I REG , includes quiescent current (IQ) and gate drive current (IDREG): IREG = IQ + [fSW x (QGHS_ + QGLS_)] where QGHS_ to QGLS_ are the total gate charge of each of the respective high- and low-side external MOSFETs at VGATE = 5V. fSW is the switching frequency of the converter and IQ is the quiescent current of the device at the switching frequency.
Oscillator/Synchronization Input/Phase Staggering (RT, SYNC, PHASE)
Use an external resistor at RT to program the MAX15003 switching frequency from 200kHz to 2.2MHz. Choose the appropriate resistor at RT to calculate the desired output switching frequency (fSW): fSW (Hz) = 1011/(RRT + 1750) () Connect an external clock at SYNC for external clock synchronization. A rising clock edge on SYNC is interpreted as a synchronization input. If the SYNC signal is lost, the internal oscillator takes control of the switching rate, returning the switching frequency to that set by RRT. This maintains output regulation even with intermittent SYNC signals. For proper synchronization, the external frequency must be at least 20% higher than three times the frequency programmed through the RT input. The switching frequency is 1/3 the SYNC frequency. Connect SYNC to SGND when not used. Connect PHASE to SGND for 120 out-of-phase operation between the controllers. Connect PHASE to REG for in-phase operation.
MOSFET Gate Drivers
DREG_ is the supply input for the low-side MOSFET driver. Connect DREG_ to REG externally. Everytime the low-side MOSFET switches on, high peak current is drawn from DREG for a short amount of time. Adding

Triple-Output Buck Controller with Tracking/Sequencing MAX15003
Coincident/Ratiometric Tracking (SEL, EN/TRACK_)
The enable/tracking input in conjunction with digital softstart and soft-stop provides coincident/ratiometric tracking (see Figure 1). Track an output voltage by connecting a resistive divider from the output being tracked to the enable/tracking input. For example, for VOUT2 to coincidentally track VOUT1, connect the same resistive divider used for FB2, from OUT1 to EN/TRACK2 to SGND. See Figure 2 and the Coincident Startup and Coincident Shutdown graphs in the Typical Operating Characteristics. Track ratiometrically by connecting EN/TRACK_ to SGND. This synchonizes the soft-start and soft-stop of all the controllers' references, and hence their respective output voltages track ratiometrically. See Figure 2 and the Typical Operating Characteristics (Ratiometric Startup and Ratiometric Shutdown graphs). Connect SEL to REG to configure as a triple tracker. When the MAX15003 converter is configured as a tracker, the output short-circuit fault situations at master or slave outputs are handled carefully so that either the master or slave output does not stay on when the other outputs are shorted to the ground. When the slave is shorted and enters in hiccup mode, both the master and the other slave soft-stop. When the master is shorted and the part enters in hiccup mode, the slaves ratiometrically soft-stop. Coming out of the hiccup, all outputs soft-start coincidently or ratiometrically depending on their initial configuration. See the Typical Operating Characteristics for the output behaviour during the fault conditions. During power-off, when the input falls below its UVLO, the output voltages fall down at the rate depending on the respective output capacitor and load.

Error Amplifier
The output of the internal error transconductance amplifier (COMP_) is provided for frequency compensation (see the Compensation Design Guidelines section). The inverting input is FB_ and the output COMP_. The error transamplifier has an 80dB open-loop gain and a 10MHz GBW product.
Output Short-Circuit Protection (Hiccup Mode)
The current-limit circuit employs a valley current-limiting algorithm that either uses a shunt or the synchronous MOSFET's on-resistance as the current-sensing element. Once the high-side MOSFET turns off, the voltage across the current-sensing element is monitored. If this voltage does not exceed the current-limit threshold,
the high-side MOSFET turns on normally at the start of the next cycle. If the voltage exceeds the current-limit threshold just before the beginning of a new PWM cycle, the controller skips that cycle. During severe overload or short-circuit conditions, the switching frequency of the device appears to decrease because the on-time of the low-side MOSFET extends beyond a clock cycle. If the current-limit threshold is exceeded for more than eight cumulative clock cycles (NCL), the device shuts down (both DH and DL are pulled low) for 4096 clock cycles (hiccup timeout) and then restarts with a softstart sequence. If three consecutive cycles pass without a current-limit event, the count of NCL is cleared (see Figure 3). Hiccup mode protects against a continuous output short circuit.

PWM Controller Design Procedures
Setting the Switching Frequency
Connect a 500k to 45k resistor from RT to SGND to program the switching frequency from 200kHz to 2.2MHz. Calculate the switching frequency using the following equation: fSW = 1011/(RRT + 1750) Higher frequencies allow designs with lower inductor values and less output capacitance. Consequently, peak currents and I 2 R losses are lower at higher switching frequencies, but core losses, gate-charge currents, and switching losses increase.
Three key inductor parameters must be specified for operation with the MAX15003: inductance value (L), peak inductor current (IPEAK), and inductor saturation current (ISAT). The minimum required inductance is a function of operating frequency, input-to-output voltage differential, and the peak-to-peak inductor current (IP-P). Higher IP-P allows for a lower inductor value. A lower inductance value minimizes size and cost and improves large-signal and transient response. However, efficiency is reduced due to higher peak currents and higher peak-to-peak output voltage ripple for the same output capacitor. A higher inductance increases efficiency by reducing the ripple current, however resistive losses due to extra wire turns can exceed the benefit gained from lower ripple current levels especially when the inductance is increased without also allowing for larger inductor dimensions. A good rule of thumb is to choose IP-P equal to 30% of the full load current. Calculate the inductance using the following equation:
L=
VOUT (VIN - VOUT ) VIN x fSW x IP -P
Effective Input Voltage Range
Although the MAX15003 converters can operate from input supplies ranging from 5.5V to 23V, the input voltage range can be effectively limited by the MAX15003 duty-cycle limitations for a given output voltage. The maximum input voltage is limited by the minimum ontime (tON(MIN)): VIN(MAX) where tON(MIN) is 75ns. VOUT t ON(MIN) x fSW
VIN and VOUT are typical values so that efficiency is optimum for typical conditions. The switching frequency is programmable between 200kHz and 2.2MHz (see Oscillator/Synchronization Input/Phase Staggering (RT, SYNC, PHASE) section). The peak-to-peak inductor current, which reflects the peak-to-peak output ripple, is worst at the maximum input voltage. See the Output Capacitor Selection section to verify that the worst-case output current ripple is acceptable. The inductor saturation current (ISAT) is also important to avoid runaway current during continuous output short-circuit conditions. Select an inductor with an ISAT specification higher than the maximum peak current.

Triple-Output Buck Controller with Tracking/Sequencing
Input Capacitor Selection
The discontinuous input current of the buck converter causes large input ripple currents, and therefore, the input capacitor must be carefully chosen to withstand the input ripple current and keep the input voltage ripple within design requirements. The 120 ripple phase operation increases the frequency of the input capacitor ripple current to thrice the individual converter switching frequency. When using ripple phasing, the worst-case input capacitor ripple current is when the one converter with the highest output current is on. The input voltage ripple comprises VQ (caused by the capacitor discharge) and VESR (caused by the ESR of the input capacitor). The total voltage ripple is the sum of VQ and VESR which peaks at the end of the on-cycle. Calculate the input capacitance and ESR required for a specified ripple using the following equations:
ESR =
the required output capacitance and its ESR. The output ripple is mainly composed of VQ (caused by the capacitor discharge) and VESR (caused by the voltage drop across the equivalent series resistance of the output capacitor). The equations for calculating the output capacitance and its ESR are: COUT =
ESR =
MAX15003
IP -P 8 x VQ x fSW
2 x VESR IP -P
VESR IP -P ILOAD(MAX) + 2
V ILOAD(MAX) x OUT VIN CIN = VQ x fSW where: IP -P =
(VIN - VOUT ) x VOUT
VIN x fSW x L
ILOAD(MAX) is the maximum output current, IP-P is the peak-to-peak inductor current, and fSW is the switching frequency. For the condition with only one converter is on, calculate the input ripple current using the following equation: ICIN(RMS) =ILOAD(MAX) x VOUT x ( VIN - VOUT ) VIN
VESR and VQ are not directly additive because they are out of phase from each other. If using ceramic capacitors, which generally have low ESR, VQ dominates. If using electrolytic capacitors, V ESR dominates. The allowable deviation of the output voltage during fast load transients also affects the output capacitance, its ESR, and its equivalent series inductance (ESL). The output capacitor supplies the load current during a load step until the controller responds with a greater duty cycle. The response time (tRESPONSE) depends on the gain bandwidth of the converter (see the Compensation Design Guidelines section). The resistive drop across the output capacitor's ESR, the drop across the capacitor's ESL, and the capacitor discharge cause a voltage droop during the load-step (ISTEP). Use a combination of low-ESR tantalum/aluminum electrolytic and ceramic capacitors for better load-transient and voltage-ripple performance. Surfacemount capacitors and capacitors in parallel help reduce the ESL. Keep the maximum output voltage deviation below the tolerable limits of the electronics being powered. Use the following equations to calculate the required ESR, ESL, and capacitance value during a load step: VESR ISTEP xt I COUT = STEP RESPONSE VQ
ESR = ESL =
The MAX15003 includes UVLO hysteresis to avoid possible unintentional chattering during turn-on. Use additional bulk capacitance if the input source impedance is high. At lower input voltage, additional input capacitance helps avoid possible undershoot below the undervoltage lockout threshold during transient loading.

Output Capacitor Selection
The allowed output voltage ripple and the maximum deviation of the output voltage during load steps determine

Setting the Current Limit
Connect a 25k to 150k resistor, RILIM, from ILIM to SGND to program the valley current-limit threshold (VCL) from 50mV to 300mV. ILIM sources 20A out to RILIM. The resulting voltage divided by 10 is the valley current-limit threshold. The MAX15003 uses a valley current-sense method for current limiting. The voltage drop across the low-side MOSFET due to its on-resistance is used to sense the inductor current. The voltage drop (VVALLEY) across the low-side MOSFET at the valley point and at ILOAD is: VVALLEY = RDS(ON) x ILOAD

RDS(ON) is the on-resistance of the low-side MOSFET, ILOAD is the rated load current, and IP-P is the peakto-peak inductor current. The RDS(ON) of the MOSFET varies with temperature. Calculate the RDS(ON) of the MOSFET at its operating junction temperature at full load using the MOSFET datasheet. To compensate for this temperature variation, the 20A ILIM reference current has a temperature coefficient of 3333ppm/C. This allows the valley current-limit threshold (VCL) to track and partially compensate for the increase in the synchronous MOSFET's RDS(ON) with increasing temperature. Use the following equation to calculate RILIM:
I RDS(ON) x ICL(MAX) - P -P x10 2 RILIM = 20 x10 -6 1+ 3.333 x10 -3 (T - 25C)
Figure 4. Current-Limit Trip Point and VRDS(ON) vs. Temperature
Compensation Design Guidelines
The MAX15003 uses a fixed-frequency, voltage-mode control scheme that regulates the output voltage by differentially comparing the "sampled" output voltage against a fixed reference. The subsequent error voltage that appears at the error amplifier output (COMP) is compared against an internal ramp voltage to generate the required duty cycle of the pulse-width modulator. A second order lowpass LC filter removes the switching harmonics and passes the DC component of the pulsewidth-modulated signal to the output. The LC filter, which has an attenuation slope of -40dB/decade, introduces 180 of phase shift at frequencies above the LC resonant frequency. This phase shift, in addition to the inherent 180 of phase shift of the regulator's self-governing (negative) feedback system, poses the potential for positive feedback. The error amplifier and its associated circuitry are designed to compensate for this instability to achieve a stable closed-loop system. The basic regulator loop consists of a power modulator (comprises the regulator's pulse-width modulator, associated circuitry, and LC filter), an output feedback divider, and an error amplifier. The power modulator has a DC gain set by VIN / VRAMP, with a double pole and a single zero set by the output inductance (L), the output capacitance (COUT), and its equivalent series resistance (ESR). A second, higher frequency zero also exists, which is a function of the output capacitor's ESR and ESL); though only taken into account when using very high-quality filter components and/or frequencies of operation.
Figure 4 illustrates the effect of the MAX15003 ILIM reference current temperature coefficient to compensate for the variation of the MOSFET RDS(ON) over the operating junction temperature range.
Power MOSFET Selection
When choosing the MOSFETs, consider the total gate charge, RDS(ON), power dissipation, the maximum drainto-source voltage and package thermal impedance. The product of the MOSFET gate charge and on-resistance is a figure of merit, with a lower number signifying better performance. Choose MOSFETs that are optimized for high-frequency switching applications. The average gatedrive current from the MAX15003's output is proportional to the frequency and gate charge required to drive the MOSFET. The power dissipated in the MAX15003 is proportional to the input voltage and the average drive current (see the Power Dissipation section).

First, select the passive and active power components that meet the application's output ripple, component size, and component cost requirements. Second, choose the small-signal compensation components to achieve the desired closed-loop frequency response and phase margin as outlined below.

The switching frequency is programmable between 200kHz and 2.2MHz using an external resistor at RT. Typically, the crossover frequency (fCO), which is the frequency when the system's closed-loop gain is equal to unity crosses the 0dB axis--should be set at or below one-tenth the switching frequency (fSW/10) for stable, closed-loop response. The MAX15003 provides an internal transconductance amplifier with its inverting input and its output available to the user for external frequency compensation. The flexibility of external compensation for each converter offers wide selection of output filtering components, especially the output capacitor. For cost-sensitive applications, use aluminum electrolytic capacitors and for space-sensitive applications, use low-ESR tantalum or multilayer ceramic chip (MLCC) capacitors at the output. The higher switching frequencies of the MAX15003 allow the use of MLCC as the primary filter capacitor(s).
Closed-Loop Response and Compensation of Voltage-Mode Regulators The power modulator's LC lowpass filter exhibits a variety of responses, depending on the value of the L and C (and their parasitics). One such response is shown in Figure 5a. In this example the power modulator's uncompensated crossover is approximately 1/6th the desired crossover frequency, fCO. Note also, the uncompensated roll-off through the 0dB plane follows the double-pole, -40dB/decade slope and approaches 180 of phase shift, indicative of a potentially unstable system. Together with the inherent 180 of phase delay in the negative feedback system, this may lead to near 360 or positive feedback--an unstable system. The desired (compensated) roll-off follows a -20dB/decade slope (and commensurate 90 of phase shift), and, in this example, occurs at approximately 6x the uncompensated crossover frequency, fCO. In this example, a Type II compensator provides for stable closed-loop operation, leveraging the +20dB/decade slope of the capacitor's ESR zero (see Figure 5b).

The Type II compensator's mid-frequency gain (approximately 18dB shown here) is designed to compensate for the power modulator's attenuation at the desired crossover frequency, fCO (GE/A + GMOD = 0dB at fCO). In this example, the power modulator's inherent -20dB/decade roll-off above the ESR zero (fZERO, ESR) is leveraged to extend the active regulation gain-bandwidth of the voltage regulator. As shown in Figure 5b, the net result is a 6x increase in the regulator's gain bandwidth while providing greater than 75 of phase margin (the difference between G E/A and G MOD respective phases at crossover, fCO). Other filter schemes pose their own problems. For instance, when choosing high-quality filter capacitor(s), e.g., MLCCs, and an inductor with minimal parasitics, the inherent ESR zero may occur at a much higher frequency, as shown in Figure 5c. As with the previous example, the actual gain and phase response is overlaid on the power modulator's asymptotic gain response. One readily observes the more dramatic gain and phase transition at or near the power modulator's resonant frequency, fLC, versus the gentler response of the previous example. This is due to the component's lower parasitics leading to the higher frequency of the inherent ESR zero of the output
MAX15003
capacitor. In this example, the desired crossover frequency occurs below the ESR zero frequency. In this example, a compensator with an inherent midfrequency double-zero response is required to mitigate the effects of the filter's double-pole. Such is available with the Type III topology. As demonstrated in Figure 5d, the Type III's midfrequency double-zero gain (exhibiting a +20dB/ decade slope, noting the compensator's pole at the origin) is designed to compensate for the power modulator's double-pole -40dB/decade attenuation at the desired crossover frequency, fCO (again, GE/A + GMOD = 0dB at fCO). (See Figure 5d). In the above example, the power modulator's inherent (mid-frequency) -40dB/decade roll-off is mitigated by the mid-frequency double zero's +20dB/decade gain to extend the active regulation gain-bandwidth of the voltage regulator. As shown in Figure 5d, the net result is an approximate doubling in the regulator's gain bandwidth while providing greater than 60 of phase margin (the difference between GE/A and GMOD respective phases at crossover, fCO). Design procedures for both Type II and Type III compensators are shown below.

When the fZERO,ESR is lower than fCO and close to fLC, a Type II compensation network provides the necessary closed-loop response. The Type II compensation network provides a mid-band compensating zero and high-frequency pole (see Figures 6a and 6b). R F C F provides the mid-band zero f MID,ZERO , and RFCCF provides the high-frequency pole. Use the following procedure to calculate the compensation network components.

Type III: Compensation When fCO < fZERO, ESR As indicated above, the position of the output capacitor's inherent ESR zero is critical in designing an appropriate compensation network. When low-ESR ceramic output capacitors are used, the ESR zero frequency (f ZERO, ESR ) is usually much higher than unity crossover frequency (fCO). In this case, a Type III compensation network is recommended (see Figure 7a).

1 2 x fZERO,ESR x CI
As shown in Figure 7b, a Type III compensation network introduces two zeros and three poles into the control loop. The error amplifier has a low-frequency pole at the origin, two zeros, and higher frequency poles. The locations of the zeros and poles should be such that the phase margin peaks at fCO. Set the ratios of fCO-to-fZ and fP-to-fCO equal to one another, e.g., fCO fP = is a good number to get about = 5 fZ fCO 60 of phase margin at fCO. Whichever technique, it is important to place the two zeros at or below the double pole to avoid the conditional stability issue.

PWM Controller Applications Information
Power Dissipation
The 48-pin TQFN thermally enhanced package can dissipate up to 3.08W. Calculate power dissipation in the MAX15003 as a product of the input voltage and the total REG output current (IREG). IREG includes quiescent current (I Q ) and the total gate drive current (IDREG): PD = VIN x IREG IREG = IQ + [fSW x (QG1 + QG2 + QG3 + QG4 + QG5 + QG6)] where QG1 to QG6 are the total gate charge of the lowside and high-side external MOSFETs. f SW is the switching frequency of the converter and IQ is the quiescent current of the device at the switching frequency. Use the following equation to calculate the maximum power dissipation (PDMAX) in the chip at a given ambient temperature (TA): PDMAX = 38.5 x (150 - TA)..........mW 3) Keep the current loop formed by the lower switching MOSFET, inductor, and output capacitor short. 4) Keep SGND and PGND isolated and connect them at one single point close to the negative terminal of the input filter capacitor. 5) Run the current-sense lines CSP_ and CSN_ close to each other to minimize the loop area. 6) Avoid long traces between the DREG_ bypass capacitor, low-side driver outputs of the MAX15003, MOSFET gate, and PGND. Minimize the loop formed by the DREG_ bypass capacitor, bootstrap diode, bootstrap capacitor, high-side driver output of the MAX15003, and upper MOSFET gates. 7) Place the bank of output capacitors close to the load. 8) Distribute the power components evenly across the board for proper heat dissipation. 9) Provide enough copper area at and around the switching MOSFETs, and inductor to aid in thermal dissipation. 10) Connect the MAX15003 exposed paddle to a large copper plane to maximize its power dissipation capability. Connect the exposed paddle to SGND. Do not connect the exposed paddle to the SGND pin (pin 45) directly underneath the IC. 11) Use 2oz copper to keep the trace inductance and resistance to a minimum. Thin copper PCBs compromise efficiency because high currents are involved in the application. Also, thicker copper conducts heat more effectively, thereby reducing thermal impedance.
MAX15003
PCB Layout Guidelines
Use the following guidelines to layout the switching voltage regulator. 1) Place the IN, REG, and DREG_ bypass capacitors close to the MAX15003. 2) Minimize the area and length of the high-current loops from the input capacitor, upper switching MOSFET, inductor, and output capacitor back to the input capacitor negative terminal.
