april 2005 11 mic4681 mic4681 micrel functional description the mic4681 is a variable duty cycle switch-mode regulator with an internal power switch. refer to the block diagrams. supply voltage the mic4681 operates from a +4v to +30v unregulated input. highest efficiency operation is from a supply voltage around +12v. see the efficiency curves on page 6. enable/shutdown the shutdown ( shdn ) input is ttl compatible. ground the input if unused. a logic-low enables the regulator. a logic- high shuts down the internal regulator which reduces the current to typically 35 a when v shdn = v in = 12v and 6 a when v shdn = 5v. see shutdown input behavior: shutdown hysteresis. feedback require an external resistive voltage divider from the output voltage to ground, center tapped to the fb pin. see figure 1b for recommended resistor values. duty cycle control a fixed-gain error amplifier compares the feedback signal with a 1.23v bandgap voltage reference. the resulting error amplifier output voltage is compared to a 200khz sawtooth waveform to produce a voltage controlled variable duty cycle output. a higher feedback voltage increases the error amplifier output voltage. a higher error amplifier voltage (comparator inverting input) causes the comparator to detect only the peaks of the sawtooth, reducing the duty cycle of the com- parator output. a lower feedback voltage increases the duty cycle. the mic4681 uses a voltage-mode control architec- ture. output switching when the internal switch is on, an increasing current flows from the supply v in, through external storage inductor l1, to output capacitor c out and the load. energy is stored in the inductor as the current increases with time. when the internal switch is turned off, the collapse of the magnetic field in l1 forces current to flow through fast recovery diode d1, charging c out . output capacitor external output capacitor c out provides stabilization and reduces ripple. see bode plots for additional information. return paths during the on portion of the cycle, the output capacitor and load currents return to the supply ground. during the off portion of the cycle, current is being supplied to the output capacitor and load by storage inductor l1, which means that d1 is part of the high-current return path. applications information adjustable regulators adjustable regulators require a 1.23v feedback signal. rec- ommended voltage-divider resistor values for common out- put voltages are included in figure 1b. for other voltages, the resistor values can be determined using the following formulas: vv r1 r2 1 r1 r2 v v 1 v 1.23v out ref out ref ref =+ ? ? ? ? ? ? =? ? ? ? ? ? ? = sw l1 in fb gnd shdn c out r1 r2 d1 v out mic4681bm c in v in shutdown enable 5 8 4 3 2 1 figure 1a. adjustable regulator circuit v t u o * 1 r* 2 rc n i 1 d1 lc t u o v 8 . 1 k 1 0 . 3k 9 4 . 6 v 5 3 f 2 2 e l a d y a h s i v t 2 e 5 3 0 x 6 2 2 d 3 9 5 y k t t o h c s v 0 4 a 3 * * * . c n i , e d o i d - y a h s i v a 0 4 3 b r o r o t c u d n o c i m e s l a r e n e g 6 3 s s a 0 . 2 h 8 6 0 8 6 - b 3 p u s c i n o r t l i o c r o * * c m 0 8 6 - 7 2 1 h r d c a d i m u s v 0 1 f 0 2 2 e l a d y a h s i v 2 d 0 1 0 0 x 7 2 2 d 4 9 5 v 5 . 2 k 1 0 . 3k 4 9 . 2 v 3 . 3 k 1 0 . 3k 8 7 . 1 v 0 . 5 k 1 0 . 36 7 9 ? v 0 . 6 k 1 0 . 37 8 7 ? % 1 s r o t s i s e r l l a * s n o i t a c i l p p a i f r w o l r o f s c i t e n g a m d e d l e i h s * * 0 0 8 4 - 6 4 4 ) 5 0 8 ( . c n i , e d o i d - y a h s i v * * * figure 1b. recommended components for common ouput voltages
mic4681 micrel mic4681 12 april 2005 ja jc ca am bient printed circuit board ground plane heat sink area sop-8 figure 2. power sop-8 cross section thermal considerations the mic4681 superswitcher features the power-sop-8. this package has a standard 8-lead small-outline package profile, but with much higher power dissipation than a stan- dard sop-8. micrel's mic4681 superswitcher family are the first dc-to-dc converters to take full advantage of this package. the reason that the power sop-8 has higher power dissipa- tion (lower thermal resistance) is that pins 5 through 8 and the die-attach paddle are a single piece of metal. the die is attached to the paddle with thermally conductive adhesive. this provides a low thermal resistance path from the junction of the die to the ground pins. this design significantly im- proves package power dissipation by allowing excellent heat transfer through the ground leads to the printed circuit board. one limitation of the maximum output current on any mic4681 design is the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance ( ja ) of the design (package and ground plane). examining ja in more detail: ja = ( jc + ca ) where: jc = junction-to-case thermal resistance ca = case-to-ambient thermal resistance jc is a relatively constant 20 c/w for a power sop-8. ca is dependent on layout and is primarily governed by the connection of pins 5 though 8 to the ground plane. the purpose of the ground plane is to function as a heat sink. ja is ideally 63 c/w, but will vary depending on the size of the ground plane to which the power sop-8 is attached. determining ground-plane heat-sink area there are two methods of determining the minimum ground plane area required by the mic4681. quick method make sure that mic4681 pins 5 though 8 are connected to a ground plane with a minimum area of 6cm 2 . this ground plane should be as close to the mic4681 as possible. the area may be distributed in any shape around the package or on any pcb layer as long as there is good thermal contact to pins 5 though 8 . this ground plane area is more than sufficient for most designs. minimum copper/maximum current method using figure 3, for a given input voltage range, determine the minimum ground-plane heat-sink area required for the application s maximum continuous output current. figure 3 assumes a constant die temperature of 75 c above ambient. 0 0.5 1.0 1.5 0 5 10 15 20 25 continuous output current (a) area (cm 2 ) 12v 8v v in = 30v 24v t a = 50 c figure 3. output current vs. ground plane area when designing with the mic4681, it is a good practice to connect pins 5 through 8 to the largest ground plane that is practical for the specific design. checking the maximum junction temperature: for this example, with an output power (p out ) of 5w, (5v output at 1a maximum with v in = 12v) and 65 c maximum ambient temperature, what is the maximum junction tem- perature? referring to the typical characteristics: 5v output effi- ciency graph, read the efficiency ( ) for 1a output current at v in = 12v or perform you own measurement. = 79% the efficiency is used to determine how much of the output power (p out ) is dissipated in the regulator circuit (p d ). p= p p d out out ? p= 5w 0.79 5w d ? p d = 1.33w a worst-case rule of thumb is to assume that 80% of the total output power dissipation is in the mic4681 (p d(ic) ) and 20% is in the diode-inductor-capacitor circuit. p d(ic) = 0.8 p d p d(ic) = 0.8 1.33w p d(ic) = 1.064w calculate the worst-case junction temperature: t j = p d(ic) jc + (t c t a ) + t a(max) where: t j = mic4681 junction temperature p d(ic) = mic4681 power dissipation jc = junction-to-case thermal resistance. the jc for the mic4681 s power-sop-8 is approximately 20 c/w. t c = pin temperature measurement taken at the entry point of pins 6 or 7
