7 fn6657.2 october 21, 2010 pin functions pgnd (pins 1, 2, 3, 4, 11) power ground pin for signal, input, and output return path. pgnd needs to connect to one (or more) ground plane(s) immediately, which is recommended to minimize the effect of switching noise, copper losses, and maximize heat dissipation. pvcc (pin 5) this pin provides the bias supp ly for isl8201m, as well as the low-side mosfet?s gate and high-side mosfet?s gate. if pvcc rises above 6.5v, an internal 5v regulator will supply to the internal logics bias (but high-side and low-side mosfet gate will still be sourced by pvcc). connect a well decoupled +5v or +12v supply to this pin. nc (pins 6, 8, 15) these pins have no function; do not connect. iset (pin 7) the iset pin is the input for the overcurrent protection (ocp) setting, which compares the r ds(on) of the low-side mosfet to set the overcurrent threshold. the isl8201m has an initial protect overcurrent limit. it has an integrated internal 3.57k resistor (r set-in ) between the iset and pgnd pins, which can prevent si gnificant overcurrent impact to the module. one can also connect an additional resistor r set-ex between the iset pin and the pgnd pin in order to reduce the current limit point by paralleling. vin (pin 9) power input pin. apply input voltage between the vin pin and pgnd pin. it is recommended to place an input decoupling capacitor directly between the vin pin and the pgnd pin. the input capacitor should be placed as closely as possible to the module. phase (pin 10) the phase pin is the switching node between the high and low side mosfet. it also retu rns the current path for the high side mosfet driver and detects the low-side mosfet drain voltage for the overcurrent limits point. vout (pin 12) power output pin. apply output load between this pin and the pgnd pin. it is recommended to place a high frequency output decoupling capacitor directly between the vout pin and the pgnd pin. the output capacitor should be placed as closely as possible to the module. comp/en (pin 13) this is the multiplexed pin of the isl8201m. during soft-start and normal converter operation, this pin represents the output of the error amplifier. use comp/en in combination with the fb pin to compensate for the voltage control feedback loop of the converter. pulling comp/en low (v endis = 0.4v nominal) will disable (shut-down) the controller, which causes the oscillator to stop, and the high-side gate and low-side gat e of the mosfets outputs to be held low. the external pull-down device will initially need to overcome a maximum of 5ma of comp/en output current. however, once the controller is disabled, the comp/en output will also be disabled, thus only a 20a current source will continue to draw current. fb (pin 14) the fb pin is the output volt age adjustment of the isl8201m. it will regulate to 0.6v at the fb pin with respect to the pgnd pin. the isl8201m has an integrated voltage dividing resistor. this is a precision 9.76k resistor (r fb-ti ) between the vout and fb pins. different output voltages can be programmed with additional resistors between fb to pgnd. reference circuitry for general applications typical application wit h single power supply figure 11 shows the isl8201m application schematic for input voltage +5v or +12v. the pvcc pin can connect to the input supply directly. typical application with separated power supply figure 12 shows the isl8201m application schematic for wide input voltages from +1v to +20v. the p vcc supply can source +5v/+12v or +6.5v to 14.4v. figure 11. typical application schematic pgnd fb comp/en vin vout phase iset pvcc (+5v/+12v) v in v out c in c out r fb r set-ex c pvcc isl8201m figure 12. wide input volt age application schematic pgnd fb comp/en vin vout phase iset pvcc (+1v to +20v) v in v out c in c out r fb r set-ex c pvcc (+5v/+12v) or (+6.5v to 14.4v) p vcc isl8201m isl8201m
8 fn6657.2 october 21, 2010 applications information the typical isl8201m application schematic for input voltage +5v or +12v is shown in figure 11. external component selection is primarily determined by the maximum load current and input/output voltage. programming the output voltage the isl8201m has an internal 0.6v 1.5% reference voltage. programming the output voltage requires a dividing resistor (r fb ). the output voltage can be calculated as shown in equation 1: note: isl8201m has integrated 9.76k resistance into the module (dividing resistor for top side). the resistance corresponding to different outp ut voltages is as shown in table 1: initialization (por and ocp sampling) figure 13 shows a start-up waveform of isl8201m. the power-on-reset (por) function co ntinually monitors the bias voltage at the pvcc pin. once the rising por threshold has exceeded 4v (v porr nominal), the por function initiates the overcurrent protection (ocp ) sample and hold operation (while comp/en is ~1v). when the sampling is complete, v out begins the soft-start ramp. if the comp/en pin is held low during power-up, the initialization will be delayed until the comp/en is released and its voltage rises above the v endis trip point. figure 14 and figure 15 show a typical power-up sequence in more detail. the initialization starts at t 0 , when either p vcc rises above v porr , or the comp/en pin is released (after por). the comp/en will be pulled up by an internal 20a current source, however, the timing will not begin until the comp/en exceeds the v endis trip point (at t 1 ). the external capacitance of the disabling device, as well as the compensation capacitors, wil l determine how quickly the 20a current source will charge the comp/en pin. with typical values, it should add a small delay compared to the soft-start times. the comp/en will continue to ramp to ~1v. from t 1 , there is a nominal 6.8ms delay, which allows the pvcc pin to exceed 6.5v (if rising up towards 12v), so that the internal bias regulator can turn on cleanly. at the same time, the iset pin is initialized by disabling the low-side gate driver and drawing i set (nominal 21.5a) through r seti . this sets up a voltage that will represent the i set trip point. at t 2 , there is a variable time pe riod for the ocp sample and hold operation (0.0ms to 3.4ms nominal; the longer time occurs with the higher overcurrent setting). the sample and hold uses a digital counter and dac to save the voltage, so the stored value does not deg rade, as long as the p vcc is above v porr (see ?overcurrent protection (ocp)? on page 10 for more details on the equations and variables). upon the completion of sample and hold at t 3 , the soft-start operation is initiated, and the output voltage ramps up between t 4 and t 5 . table 1. resistance to output voltages v out 0.6v 1.05v 1.2v 1.5v r fb open 13k 9.76k 6.49k v out 1.8v 2.5v 3.3v 5v r fb 4.87k 3.09k 2.16k 1.33k v out 0.6 1 9.76k r fb -------------- - + ?? ?? = (eq. 1 ) figure 13. por and soft-start operation figure 14. i set and soft-start operation t 0 t 1 comp/en iset vout isl8201m
9 fn6657.2 october 21, 2010 soft-start and pre-biased outputs the soft-start internally ramps the reference on the non-inverting terminal of the error amp from 0v to 0.6v in a nominal 6.8ms. the output volt age will thus follow the ramp, from zero to final value, in the same 6.8ms (the actual ramp seen on the v out will be less than the nominal time), due to some initialization timing, between t 3 and t 4 . the ramp is created digitally, so there will be 64 small discrete steps. there is no simple way to change this ramp rate externally. after an initialization period (t 3 to t 4 ), the error amplifier (comp/en pin) is enabled and begins to regulate the converter's output voltage during soft-start. the oscillator's triangular waveform is compared to the ramping error amplifier voltage. this generates phase puls es of increasing width that charge the output capacitors. when the internally generated soft-start voltage exceeds the reference voltage (0.6v), the soft- start is complete and the output should be in regulation at the expected voltage. this method provides a rapid and controlled output voltage rise; there is no large inrush current charging the output capacitors. the entire start-up sequence from por typically takes up to 17ms; up to 10.2ms for the delay and ocp sample and 6.8ms for the soft-start ramp. figure 16 shows the normal curve for start-up; initialization begins at t 0 , and the output ramps between t 1 and t 2 . if the output is pre-biased to a vo ltage less than the expected value (as shown figure 17), the isl8201m will detect that condition. neither internal mosfet will turn on until the soft-start ramp voltage exceeds the output; v out starts seamlessly ramping from there. if the output is pre-biased to a voltage above the expected value (as shown figure 18), neither mosfet will turn on until the end of the soft-start, at which time it will pull the output voltage down to the final value. any resistive load connected to the output will help pull down the voltage (at the rc rate of the r of the load and the c of the output capacitance). figure 15. i set and soft-start operation iset figure 16. normal start-up figure 17. pre-biased start-up isl8201m
10 fn6657.2 october 21, 2010 if the v in for the synchronous buck converter is from a different supply that comes up after p vcc , the soft-start will go through its cycle, but with no output voltage ramp. when v in turns on, the output will follow the ramp of the v in from zero up to the final expected voltage (at close to 100% duty cycle, with comp/en pin >4v). if v in is too fast, there may be excessive inrush current charging the output capacitors (only the beginning of the ramp, from zero to v out matters here). if this is not acceptable, then consider changing the sequencing of the power supplies, sharing the same supply, or adding sequencing logic to the comp/en pin to delay the soft-start until the v in supply is ready (see ?input voltage considerations? on page 11). if isl8201m is disabled after soft-start (by pulling comp/en pin low), and afterwards enabled (by releasing the comp/en pin), then the full initialization (including ocp sample) will take place. however, there is no new ocp sampling during overcurrent retrie s. if the output is shorted to gnd during soft-start, the ocp will handle it, as described in the next section. overcurrent protection (ocp) the overcurrent function prot ects the converter from a shorted output by using the low side mosfet on-resistance, r ds(on) , to monitor the current. a resistor (r set ) programs the overcurrent trip level. this method enhances the converter's efficiency and reduces cost by eliminating a current sensing resistor. if overcurrent is detected, the out put immediately shuts off. it cycles the soft-start function in a hiccup mode (2 dummy soft-start time-outs, then up to one real one) to provide fault protection. if the sh orted condition is no t removed, this cycle will continue indefinitely. following por (and 6.8ms delay), the isl8201m initiates the overcurrent protection samp le and hold operation. the low side gate driver is disabled to allow an internal 21.5a current source to develop a voltage across r set . the isl8201m samples this voltage (which is referenced to the pgnd pin) at the iset pin, and holds it in a counter and dac combination. this sampled voltage is held internally as the overcurrent set point, for as long as power is applied, or until a new sample is taken after coming out of a shut-down. the actual monitoring of the low side mosfet on-resistance starts 200ns (nominal) after the edge of the internal pwm logic signal (that creates the rising external low side gate signal). this is done to allow the gate transition noise and ringing on the phase pin to settle out before monitoring. the monitoring ends when the internal pwm edge (and thus low side gate signal) goes low. the ocp can be detected anywhere within the above window. if the converter is running at high duty cycles around 75% for 600khz operation, then the low side gate pulse width may not be wide enough for the ocp to properly sample the r ds(on) . for those cases, if the low side gate signal is too narrow (or not there at all) for 3 consecutive pulses, then the third pulse will be stretched and/or inserted to the 425ns minimum width. this allows for ocp monitoring every third pulse under this condition. this can introduce a small pulse-width error on the output voltage, which will be corrected on the next pulse; and the output ripple voltage will have an unusual 3-clock pattern, which may look like jitter. the overcurrent function will trip at a peak inductor current (i peak ) determined by equation 2: where: i set is the internal i set current source (21.5a typical). r set is equivalent resistance between iset and pgnd pins. r ds(on) is typically 6.1m @ (v pvcc = v gs = 10v, i ds = 30a) and 9m @ (v pvcc = v gs = 4.5v, i ds = 30a). note: isl8201m has integrated 3.57k resistance (r set-in ). therefore, the equivalent resistance of r set can be expressed in equation 3: the scale factor of 2 doubles the trip point of the mosfet voltage drop, compared to the setting on the r set resistor. the oc trip point varies in a system mainly due to the mosfet r ds(on) variations (i.e. over process, current and temperature). to avoid overcurrent tripping in the normal operating load range, find the r set resistor from equation 4, and with steps 1 to 3: figure 18. pre-biased start-up - overcharged vout 500mv/ div i peak 2i set r set r ds on () ------------------------------------------- - = (eq. 2 ) r set r set-ex r set-in r set-ex r set-in + ------------------------------------------------------- = (eq. 3 ) isl8201m
11 fn6657.2 october 21, 2010 1. the maximum r ds(on) at the highest junction temperature 2. the minimum i set from the ?electrical specifications? table on page 3. 3. determine i peak for: where i l is the output inductor ripple current. in a high input voltage, high output voltage application, such as 20v input to 5v output, the inductor ripple becomes excessive due to the fixed internal inductor value. in such applications, the output current will be limited from the rating to approximately 70% of the module?s rated current. the relationships between the external r set values and the typical output current i out(max) ocp levels are as follows: the range of allowable voltages detected (2 x i set x r set ) is 0mv to 475mv. if the voltage drop across r set is set too low, then this can cause almost continuous ocp tripping and retry. it will also be very sensitive to system noise and inrush current spikes, so it should be avoided. the maximum usable setting is around 0.2v across r set (0.4v across the mosfet); values above this might disable the protection. any voltage drop across r set that is greater than 0.3v (0.6v mosfet trip point) will disable the ocp. note that conditions during power-up or during a retry may look different than normal operation. during power-up in a 12v system, the isl8201m starts oper ation just above 4v; if the supply ramp is slow, the soft-start ramp might be over well before 12v is reached. theref ore, with low side gate drive voltages, the r ds(on) of the mosfet will be higher during power-up, effectively lowering the ocp trip. in addition, the ripple current will likely be different at a lower input voltage. another factor is the digital nat ure of the soft-start ramp. on each discrete voltage step, there is in effect, a small load transient and a current spike to charge the output capacitors. the height of the current spike is not controlled, however, it is affected by the step size of the output and the value of the output capacitors, as well as the internal error amp compensation. therefore, it is po ssible to trip the overcurrent with inrush current, in addition to the normal load and ripple considerations. figure 19 shows the output response during a retry of an output shorted to pgnd. at time t 0 , the output has been turned off due to sensing an ov ercurrent condition. there are two internal soft-start delay cycles (t 1 and t 2 ) to allow the mosfets to cool down in order to keep the average power dissipation in retry at an acceptable level. at time t 2 , the output starts a normal soft-start cycle, and the output tries to ramp. if the short is still applied and the current reaches the i set trip point any time during the soft-start ramp period, the output will shut off and return to time t 0 for another delay cycle. the retry period is thus two dummy soft-start cycles plus one variable one (which depends on how long it takes to trip the sensor each time). figure 19 shows an example where the output gets about half-way up before shutting down; therefore, the retry (or hiccup) time will be around 17ms. the minimum should be nominally 13.6ms and the maximum 20.4ms. if the short condition is finally removed, the output should ramp up normally on the next t 2 cycle. starting up into a shorted load looks the same as a retry into that same shorted load. in both cases, ocp is always enabled during soft-start; once it trips, it will go into retry (hiccup) mode. the retry cycle will always have two dummy time-outs, plus whatever fraction of the real soft-start time passes before the detection and shutoff. at that point, the logic immediately starts a new two dummy cycle time-out. input voltage considerations figure 12 shows a standard configuration where p vcc is either 5v (10%) or 12v (20%). in each case, the gate drivers use the p vcc voltage for low side gate and high side gate driver. in addition, p vcc is allowed to work anywhere from 6.5v up to the 14.4v maximum. the p vcc range between 5.5v and 6.5v is not allowed for long-term reliability reasons, but transitions through it to voltages above 6.5v are acceptable. there is an internal 5v regu lator for bias, which turns on between 5.5v and 6.5v. some of the delay after por is there to allow a typical power supply to ramp-up past 6.5v before table 2. r set ( ) ocp (a) @ v in = 12v, p vcc = 5v ocp (a) @ v in = 12v p vcc = 12v open 13.3 17.3 50k 12.6 16.6 20k 11.4 14.9 10k 10.2 13.3 5k 7.6 10.3 3k 6.3 8.3 2k 4.9 6.7 i peak i out max () i l () 2 ------------- + > (eq. 4 ) figure 19. overcurrent retry operation isl8201m
12 fn6657.2 october 21, 2010 the soft-start ramps begins. this prevents a disturbance on the output, due to the internal regulator turning on or off. if the transition is slow (not a st ep change), the disturbance should be minimal. thus, while the recommendation is to not have the output enabled during the transition through this region, it may be acceptable. the user should monitor the output for their application to see if there is any problem. if p vcc powers up first and the v in is not present by the time the initialization is done, then the soft-start will not be able to ramp the output, and the output will later follow part of the v in ramp when it is applied. if this is not desired, then change the sequencing of the supplies, or use the comp/en pin to disable v out until both supplies are ready. figure 20 shows a simple sequencer for this situation. if p vcc powers up first, q 1 will be off, and r 3 pulling to p vcc will turn q 2 on, keeping the isl8201m in shut-down. when v in turns on, the resistor divider r 1 and r 2 determines when q 1 turns on, which will turn off q 2 and release the shut-down. if v in powers up first, q 1 will be on, turning q 2 off; so the isl8201m will start-up as soon as p vcc comes up. the v endis trip point is 0.4v nominal, so a wide variety of n-mosfet or npn bjt or even some logic ic's can be used as q 1 or q 2 . however, q 2 must be low leakage when off (open-drain or open-collector) so as not to interfere with the comp output. q 2 should also be placed near the comp/en pin. the v in range can be as low as ~1v (for v out as low as the 0.6v reference) and as high as 20v. there are some restrictions for running high v in voltage. the maximum phase voltage is 30v. the vin + p vcc + any ringing or other transients on the phase pi n must be less than 30v. if v in is 20v, it is recommended to limit p vcc to 5v. switching frequency the switching frequency is a fi xed 600khz clock, which is determined by the internal oscillator. however, all of the other timing mentioned (por delay, ocp sample, soft-start, etc.) is independent of the clock frequency (unless otherwise noted). selection of the input capacitor the input filter capacitor should be based on how much ripple the supply can tolerate on the dc input line. the larger the capacitor, the less ripple expected but consideration should be taken for the higher surge current during power-up. the isl8201m provides the soft-start function that controls and limits the current surge. the value of the input capacitor can be calculated by equation 5: where: c in is the input capacitance (f) i in is the input current (a) t is the turn on time of the high-side switch (s) v is the allowable peak-to-peak voltage (v) in addition to the bulk capacitance, some low equivalent series inductance (esl) ceramic capacitance is recommended to decouple between the drain terminal of the high side mosfet and the source terminal of the low side mosfet. this is used to reduce the voltage ringing created by the switching current across parasitic circuit elements. output capacitors the isl8201m is designed for low output voltage ripple. the output voltage ripple and transient requirements can be met with bulk output capacitors (c out ) with low enough equivalent series re sistance (esr). c out can be a low esr tantalum capacitor, a low esr polymer capacitor or a ceramic capacitor. the typical capacitance is 330f and decoupled ceramic output capacitors are used. the internally optimized loop compensation provides sufficient stability margins for all ceramic capacitor applications with a recommended total value of 400f. additional output filtering may be needed if further redu ction of output ripple or dynamic transient spike is required. layout guide to achieve stable operation, low losses, and good thermal performance some layout c onsiderations are necessary. figure 20. sequence circuit v in pvcc r1 r2 r3 q1 q2 to comp/en c in i in t v ------------------- = (eq. 5 ) figure 21. recommended layout v out r fb pgnd c pvcc v in pgnd c in c out1 (decouple) isl8201m

typically 60s-70s above +220c keep less than 30s within 5c of peak temp. isl8201m
