ACT4075
Wide Input 2.5A Step Down Converter FEATURES

2.5A Output Current Up to 95% Efficiency 4.5V to 32V Input Range 6A Shutdown Supply Current 410kHz Switching Frequency Adjustable Output Voltage Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit Protection Thermal Shutdown Protection Internal Soft Start Function Frequency Fold Back at Short Circuit Stability with Wide Range of Capacitors, Including Low ESR Ceramic Capacitors
The ACT4075 is a current-mode step-down DC/DC converter that generates up to 2.5A output current at 410kHz switching frequency. The device utilizes Active-Semi's proprietary ISOBCD30 process for operation with input voltage up to 32V. Consuming only 6A in shutdown mode, the ACT4075 is highly efficient with peak efficiency at 95% when in operation. Protection features include cycle-by-cycle current limit, thermal shutdown, and frequency fold back at short circuit. The device also includes an internal soft start function to prevent overshoot. The ACT4075 is available in SOP-8/EP exposed pad package and requires very few external devices for operation.

FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
As seen in the Functional Block Diagram, the ACT4075 is a current mode pulse width modulation (PWM) converter. The converter operates as follows: A switching cycle starts when the rising edge of the Oscillator clock output causes the High-Side Power Switch to turn on and the Low-Side Power Switch to turn off. With the SW side of the inductor now connected to IN, the inductor current ramps up to store energy in the its magnetic field. The inductor current level is measured by the Current Sense Amplifier and added to the Oscillator ramp signal. If the resulting summation is higher than the COMP voltage, the output of the PWM Comparator goes high. When this happens or when Oscillator clock output goes low, the High-Side Power Switch turns off and the Low-Side Power Switch turns on. At this point, the SW side of the inductor swings to a diode voltage below ground, causing the inductor current to decrease and magnetic energy to be transferred to output. This state continues until the cycle starts again. The High-Side Power Switch is driven by logic using BS bootstrap pin as the positive rail. This pin is charged to VSW + 6V when the Low-Side Power Switch turns on.
Innovative Products. Active Solutions. -4-
The COMP voltage is the integration of the error between FB input and the internal 1.222V reference. If FB is lower than the reference voltage, COMP tends to go higher to increase current to the output. Current limit happens when COMP reaches its maximum clamp value of 2.65V. The Oscillator normally switches at 410kHz. However, if FB voltage is less than 0.7V, then the switching frequency decreases until it reaches a typical value of 40kHz at VFB = 0V.
Shutdown Control
The ACT4075 has an enable input EN for turning the IC on or off. When EN is less than 0.7V, the IC is in 6A low current shutdown mode and output is discharged through the Low-Side Power Switch. When EN is higher than 1.3V, the IC is in normal operation mode. EN is internally pulled up with a 2A current source and can be left unconnected for always-on operation.
Thermal Shutdown
The ACT4075 automatically turns off when its junction temperature exceeds 160C and then restarts once the temperature falls to 150C.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Output Voltage Setting
Figure 1 shows the connections for setting the output voltage. Select the proper ratio of the two feedback resistors RFB1 and RFB2 based on the output voltage. Typically, use RFB2 10k and determine RFB1 from the output voltage:
Input Capacitor
The input capacitor needs to be carefully selected to maintain sufficiently low ripple at the supply input of the converter. A low ESR capacitor is highly recommended. Since large current flows in and out of this capacitor during switching, its ESR also affects efficiency. The input capacitance needs to be higher than 10F. The best choice is the ceramic type; however, low ESR tantalum or electrolytic types may also be used provided that the RMS ripple current rating is higher than 50% of the output current. The input capacitor should be placed close to the IN and G pins of the IC, with shortest traces possible. In the case of tantalum or electrolytic types, they can be further away if a small parallel 0.1F ceramic capacitor is placed right next to the IC.

Output Capacitor Inductor Selection
The inductor maintains a continuous current to the output load. This inductor current has a ripple that is dependent on the inductance value: higher inductance reduces the peak-to-peak ripple current. The trade off for high inductance value is the increase in inductor core size and series resistance, and the reduction in current handling capability. In general, select an inductance value L based on ripple current requirement: The output capacitor also needs to have low ESR to keep low output voltage ripple. The output ripple voltage is:
VRIPPLE IOUTMAX K RIPPLE RRIPPLE VIN 28 fSW LCOUT
2
(3)
L
VOUT VIN - VOUT VIN fSW IOUTMAX K RIPPLE
(2)
where VIN is the input voltage, VOUT is the output voltage, fSW is the switching frequency, IOUTMAX is the maximum output current, and KRIPPLE is the ripple factor. Typically, choose KRIPPLE = between 20% and 30% to correspond to the peak-to-peak ripple current being a percentage of the maximum output current. With this inductor value (Table 1), the peak inductor current is IOUT x (1 + KRIPPLE / 2). Make sure that this peak inductor current is less that the 5A current limit. Finally, select the inductor core size so that it does not saturate at 5A. Table 1: Typical Inductor Values VOUT
L
where IOUTMAX is the maximum output current, KRIPPLE is the ripple factor, RESR is the ESR resistance of the output capacitor, fSW is the switching frequency, L is the inductor value, COUT is the output capacitance. In the case of ceramic output capacitors, RESR is very small and does not contribute to the ripple. Therefore, a lower capacitance value can be used for ceramic type. In the case of tantalum or electrolytic type, the ripple is dominated by RESR multiplied by the ripple current. In that case, the output capacitor is chosen to have sufficiently low ESR. For ceramic output type, typically choose a capacitance of about 22F. For tantalum or electrolytic type, choose a capacitor with less than 50m ESR.
Rectifier Diode
Use a Schottky diode as the rectifier to conduct current when the High-Side Power Switch is off. The Schottky diode must have current rating higher than the maximum output current and the reverse voltage rating higher than the maximum input voltage.

Stability compensation
Figure 2: Stability Compensation STEP 2. Set the zero fZ1 at 1/4 of the cross over frequency. If RCOMP is less than 15k, the equation for CCOMP is:
CCOMP
1.6 x10 5 RCOMP

(10)
If RCOMP is limited to 15k, then the actual cross over frequency is 4.8/(VOUTCOUT). Therefore:
CCOMP 8.8 x10 6 VOUT COUT
: CCOMP2 is needed only for high ESR output capacitor
(F)
(11)
The feedback system of the IC is stabilized by the components at COMP pin, as shown in Figure 2. The DC loop gain of the system is determined by the following equation:
STEP 3. If the output capacitor's ESR is high enough to cause a zero at lower than 4 times the cross over frequency, an additional compensation capacitor CCOMP2 is required. The condition for using CCOMP2 is:

Though CCOMP2 is unnecessary when the output capacitor has sufficiently low ESR, a small value CCOMP2 such as 220pF may improve stability against PCB layout parasitic effects. Table 2 shows some calculated results based on the compensation method above.

: D1 is a 40V, 3A Schottky diode with low forward voltage, an IR 30BQ040 or SK34 equivalent. C4 can be either a ceramic capacitor (Panasonic ECJ-3YB1C226M) or SP-CAP (Specialty Polymer) Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor such as Panasonic EEFCD0J470XR. The SP-Cap is based on aluminum electrolytic capacitor technology, but uses a solid polymer electrolyte and has very stable capacitance characteristics in both operating temperature and frequency compared to ceramic, polymer, and low ESR tantalum capacitors.
