RT9259
Application Information
Introduction The RT9259 is a dual-channel DC/DC controller specifically designed to deliver high quality power where 12V power source is available. This part consists of a synchronous buck controller and an LDO controller. The synchronous buck controller integrates internal MOSFET drivers that support 12V+12V bootstrapped voltage for high efficiency power conversion. The bootstrap diode is built-in to simplify the circuit design and minimize external part count. The LDO controller drives an external N-MOSFET for lower power requirement. Internal 5VDD Regulator It is highly recommended to power the RT9259 with welldecoupled 12V to VCC12 pin. VCC12 powers the RT9259 control circuit, low side gate driver and bootstrap circuit for high side gate driver. A bootstrap diode is embedded to facilitates PCB design and reduce the total BOM cost. No external Schottky diode is required. The RT9259 integrates MOSFET gate drives that are powered from the VCC12 pin and support 12V + 12V driving capability. Converters that consist of RT9259 feature high efficiency without special consideration on the selection of MOSFETs. An internal linear regulator regulates VCC12 input to a 5VDD voltage for internal control logic circuit. No external bypass capacitor is required for filtering the 5VDD voltage. This further facilitates PCB design and reduces the total BOM cost. Power On Reset The RT9259 automatically initializes upon applying input power (at the VCC12) pin. The power on reset function (POR) continually monitors the input bias supply voltage at the VCC12 pin. The VCC12V POR level is typically 9.6V at VCC12V rising. Frequency Setting and Shut Down Connecting a resistor RRT from the RT_DIS pin to GND sets the operation frequency. The relation can be roughly expressed in the equation.

When let open, the free running frequency is 230kHz typically. Figure 1 shows the operation frequency vs. RRT for quick reference.

The RT_DIS pin threshold voltage is 0.4V typically. VIN1 Detection The RT9259 continuously generates a 10kHz pulse train with 1s pulse width to turn on the upper MOSFET for detecting the existence of VIN1 after VCC12V POR and RT_DIS enabled as shown in Figure 2. PHASE pin voltage is monitored during the detection duration. If the PHASE voltage crosses 1.5V four times, VIN1 existence is recognized and the RT9259 initiates its soft start cycle as described in next section.

Soft Start for Synchronous Buck Converter A built-in soft-start is used to prevent surge current from power supply input during power on (referring to the Functional Block Diagram). The error amplifier EA is a threeinput device. SSE or VREF1 whichever is smaller dominates the behavior non-inverting input. The internal soft start voltage SSE linearly ramps up to about 4V after VIN1 existence is recognized with about 2ms delay. According, the output voltage ramps up smoothly to its target level. The rise time of output voltage is about 2ms as shown in Figure 3. VREF1 takes over the behavior EA when SSE > VREF1. SSE is also used for LDO soft start. LDO input voltage VIN2 MUST be ready before SSE starts to ramp up. Otherwise UVP function of LDO may be triggered and shut down the RT9259.

Figure 5. UVP hiccups triggered by FBL Over Current Protection The RT9259 senses the current flowing through lower MOSFET for over current protection (OCP) by sensing the PHASE pin voltage as shown in the Functional Block Diagram. A 40uA current source flows through internal 20k ROCSET to PHASE pin causes 0.8V voltage drop across the resistor. OCP is triggered if the voltage at PHASE pin (drop of lower MOSFET VDS) is lower than -0.4V when low side MOSFET conducting. Accordingly inductor current threshold for OCP is a function of conducting resistance of lower MOSFET RDS(ON) as :
IOCSET = 40 A x R OCSET (20k ) - 0.4V = 0.4V RDS(ON) RDS(ON)
Figure 3 : Start up by RT_DIS Under Voltage Protection The voltages at FB and FBL pin are monitored for under voltage protection (UVP) after the soft start is completed. UVP is triggered if one of the feedback voltages is under (50% x VREFX) with a 30us delay. As shown in Figure 4, the RT9259 PWM controller is shut down when VFB drops lower than the UVP threshold. In Figure 5, the RT9259 shuts down after 4 time UVP hiccups triggered by FBL.

RT9259
If MOSFET with RDS(ON) = 16m is used, the OCP threshold current is about 25A. Once OCP is triggered, the RT9259 enters hiccup mode and re-soft starts again. The RT9259 shuts down after 4 time OCP hiccups. A well-designed compensator regulates the output voltage to the reference voltage VREF with fast transient response and good stability. In order to achieve fast transient response and accurate output regulation, an adequate compensator design is necessary. The goal of the compensation network is to provide adequate phase margin (greater than 45 degrees) and the highest 0dB crossing frequency. It is also recommended to manipulate loop frequency response that its gain crosses over 0dB at a slope of -20dB/dec.

Figure 7. Shorted then Start Up (Extended Figure 3) Feedback Compensation The RT9259 is a voltage mode controller. The control loop is a single voltage feedback path including a compensator and modulator as shown Figure 8. The modulator consists of the PWM comparator and power stage. The PWM comparator compares error amplifier EA output (COMP) with oscillator (OSC) sawtooth wave to provide a pulsewidth modulated (PWM) with an amplitude of VIN at the PHASE node. The PWM wave is smoothed by the output filter LOUT and COUT. The output voltage (VOUT) is sensed and fed to the inverting input of the error amplifier.
Figure 8. Closed Loop 1) Modulator Frequency Equations The modulator transfer function is the small-signal transfer function of VOUT/VCOMP (output voltage over the error amplifier output. This transfer function is dominated by a DC gain, a double pole, and a zero as shown in Figure 10. The DC gain of the modulator is the input voltage (VIN) divided by the peak to peak oscillator voltage VOSC. The output LC filter introduces a double pole, 40dB/decade gain slope above its corner resonant frequency, and a total phase lag of 180 degrees. The resonant frequency of the LC filter expressed as : 1 fLC = 2 L OUT x C OUT

The ESR zero is contributed by the ESR associated with the output capacitance. Note that this requires that the output capacitor should have enough ESR to satisfy stability requirements. The ESR zero of the output capacitor expressed as follows : 1 fESR = 2 x COUT x ESR 2) Compensation Frequency Equations The compensation network consists of the error amplifier and the impedance networks ZC and ZF as shown in Figure 9.

but often jeopardize the system stability. In order to cancel one of the LC filter poles, place the zero before the LC filter resonant frequency. In the experience, place the zero at 75% LC filter resonant frequency. Crossover frequency should be higher than the ESR zero but less than 1/5 of the switching frequency. The second pole is placed at half the switching frequency. Thermal Considerations For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute maximum operation junction temperature 125C. The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of IC package, PCB layout, the rate of surroundings airflow and temperature difference between junction to ambient. The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by following formula : PD(MAX) = ( TJ(MAX) - TA ) / JA
EA + COMP VREF
FB RF
Where T J(MAX) is the maximum operation junction temperature 125C, TA is the ambient temperature and the JA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance. For recommended operating conditions specification of RT9259, where T J(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature of the die (125C) and TA is the maximum ambient temperature. The junction to ambient thermal resistance JA is layout dependent. For VQFN-16L 4x4 packages, the thermal resistance JA is 54C/W on the standard JEDEC 51-7 four-layers thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25C can be calculated by following formula :

Figure 10. Bode Plot Figure 10 shows the DC-DC converter's gain vs. frequency. The compensation gain uses external impedance networks ZC and ZF to provide a stable, high bandwidth loop. High crossover frequency is desirable for fast transient response,
The maximum power dissipation depends on operating ambient temperature for fixed TJ (MAX) and thermal resistance JA. For RT9259 packages, the Figure 11 of derating curves allows the designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature on the maximum power allowed.

The power components and the PWM controller should be placed firstly. Place the input capacitors, especially the high-frequency ceramic decoupling capacitors, close to the power switches. Place the output inductor and output capacitors between the MOSFETs and the load. Also locate the PWM controller near by MOSFETs. A multi-layer printed circuit board is recommended. Figure 12 shows the connections of the critical components in the converter. Note that the capacitors CIN and COUT each of them represents numerous physical capacitors. Use a dedicated grounding plane and use vias to ground all critical components to this layer. Apply another solid layer as a power plane and cut this plane into smaller islands of common voltage levels. The power plane should support the input power and output power nodes. Use copper filled polygons on the top and bottom circuit layers for the PHASE node, but it is not necessary to oversize this particular island. Since the PHASE node is subjected to very high dV/dt voltages, the stray capacitance formed between these islands and the surrounding circuitry will tend to couple switching noise. Use the remaining printed circuit layers for small signal routing. The PCB traces between the PWM controller and the gate of MOSFET and also the traces connecting source of MOSFETs should be sized to carry 2A peak currents.

Figure 11. Derating Curves for RT9259 Packages PCB Layout Considerations MOSFETs switch very fast and efficiently. The speed with which the current transitions from one device to another causes voltage spikes across the interconnecting impedances and parasitic circuit elements. The voltage spikes can degrade efficiency and radiate noise, that results in over-voltage stress on devices. Careful component placement layout and printed circuit design can minimize the voltage spikes induced in the converter. Consider, as an example, the turn-off transition of the upper MOSFET prior to turn-off, the upper MOSFET was carrying the full load current. During turn-off, current stops flowing in the upper MOSFET and is picked up by the low side MOSFET or schottky diode. Any inductance in the switched current path generates a large voltage spike during the switching interval. Careful component selections, layout of the critical components, and use shorter and wider PCB traces help in minimizing the magnitude of voltage spikes. There are two sets of critical components in a DC-DC converter using the RT9259. The switching power components are most critical because they switch large amounts of energy, and as such, they tend to generate equally large amounts of noise. The critical small signal components are those connected to sensitive nodes or those supplying critical bypass current.
