  max17000a complete ddr2 and ddr3 memory power-management solution 19-4307; rev 3; 4/13 for pricing, delivery, and ordering information, please contact maxim direct at 1-888-629-4642, or visit maxim? website at www.maximintegrated.com. general description the max17000a pulse-width modulation (pwm) con-troller provides a complete power solution for notebook ddr, ddr2, and ddr3 memory. it comprises a step- down controller, a source-sink ldo regulator, and a ref- erence buffer to generate the required vddq, vtt, and vttr rails. the vddq rail is supplied by a step-down converter using maxims proprietary quick-pwm? controller. the high-efficiency, constant-on-time pwm controller han- dles wide input/output voltage ratios (low duty-cycle applications) with ease and provides 100ns response to load transients while maintaining a relatively constant switching frequency. the quick-pwm architecture cir- cumvents the poor load-transient timing problems of fixed-frequency current-mode pwms while also avoid- ing the problems caused by widely varying switching frequencies in conventional constant-on-time and con- stant-off-time pwm schemes. the controller senses the current to achieve an accurate valley current-limit pro- tection. it is also built in with overvoltage, undervoltage, and thermal protections. the max17000a can be set to run in three different modes: power-efficient skip mode, low-noise forced-pwm mode, and standby mode to support memory in notebook computer stand- by operation. the switching frequency is programma- ble from 200khz to 600khz to allow small components and high efficiency. the vddq output voltage can be set to a preset 1.8v or 1.5v, or be adjusted from 1.0v to 2.5v by an external resistor-divider. this output has 1% accuracy over line-and-load operating range. the max17000a includes a 2a source-sink ldo reg- ulator for the memory termination vtt rail. this vtt reg- ulator has a 5mv deadband that either sources or sinks, ideal for the fast-changing load burst present in memory termination applications. this feature also reduces output capacitance requirements. the vttr reference buffer sources and sinks 3ma, providing the reference voltage needed by the memory controller and devices on the memory bus. the max17000a is available in a 24-pin, 4mm x 4mm, thin qfn package. applications notebook computersddr, ddr2, and ddr3 memory supplies sstl memory supplies features ? smps regulator (vddq) quick-pwm with 100ns load-step responseoutput voltages?reset 1.8v, 1.5v, or adjustable 1.0v to 2.5v 1% v out accuracy over line and load 26v maximum input voltage ratingaccurate valley current-limit protection 200khz to 600khz switching frequency ? source/sink linear regulator (vtt) ?a peak source/sinklow-output capacitance requirement output voltages-preset vddq/2 or refin adjustable from 0.5v to 1.5v ? soft-start/soft-shutdown ? smps power-good window comparator ? vtt power-good window comparator ? selectable overvoltage protection ? undervoltage/thermal protections ? ?ma reference buffer (vttr) 2324 22 21 87 9 pgood1 vttsvttr 10 ovp bstdh ton dlcsh 1 2 skip 456 *ep *exposed pad 17 18 16 14 13 v cc shdn refinvtti vtt pgnd2 max17000a pgood2 lx 3 15 agnd 20 11 fb pgnd1 19 12 csl v dd thin qfn 4mm x 4mm top view stdby pin configuration ordering information + denotes a lead(pb)-free/rohs-compliant package. * ep = exposed pad. part temp range pin-package max17000aetg+ -40 c to +85 c 24 thin qfn-ep* quick-pwm is a trademark of maxim integrated products, inc. downloaded from: http:///

max17000a complete ddr2 and ddr3 memory power-management solution 16 maxim integrated detailed description the max17000a complete ddr solution comprises astep-down controller, a source-sink ldo regulator, and a reference buffer. maxims proprietary quick-pwm pulse- width modulator in the max17000a is specifically designed for handling fast load steps while maintaining a relatively constant operating frequency and inductor operating point over a wide range of input voltages. the quick-pwm architecture circumvents the poor load-tran- sient timing problems of fixed-frequency current-mode pwms, while also avoiding the problems caused by widely varying switching frequencies in conventional con- stant-on-time and constant-off-time pwm schemes. figure 1 is the max17000a standard application circuit and figure 2 is the max17000a functional diagram. the max17000a includes a 2a source-sink ldo reg-ulator for the memory termination rail. the source-sink regulator features a dead band that either sources or sinks, ideal for the fast-changing short-period loads presenting in memory termination applications. this feature also reduces the vtt output capacitance requirement down to 1f, though load-transient response can still require higher capacitance values between 10f and 20f. the reference buffer sources and sinks 3ma, generating a reference rail for use in the memory controller and memory devices. dh v dd v cc ton on/off fb bst v in 7v to 20v vddq +1.8v or 1.5v pgnd1 dl lx csl c in n h n l r fba r fbb c vtti c vtt c vttr 0.33 f l1 r eq c eq r c d1 pgnd2 vtti vttr vtts +5v slp_s3# vtt +1v to + 2.5v vtt = vddq/2 stdby shdn skip refin pgood2 +5v pgood1 agnd fb options: 1. connect fb to 5v for fixed +1.8v. 2. connect fb to gnd for fixed +1.5v. 3. use fb resistor-divider for adjustable output voltages. r ton csh 5v v cc v cc ovp 1 12 1618 4 24 76 20 1415 1713 2322 21 19 10 9 23 ep 11 5 8 c bst 0.1 f r3 100k r2 100k r1 10 c vdd 1 f c vcc 1 f agnd pgnd c out max17000a vttr = vddq/2 r cs = r c r dcr r eq + r c r dcr = l1 x ( 1 + 1 ) c eq r eq r c figure 1. max17000a standard application circuit downloaded from: http:///

max17000a complete ddr2 and ddr3 memory power-management solution 18 maxim integrated +5v bias supply (v dd , v cc ) the max17000a requires an external 5v bias supply inaddition to the battery. typically, this 5v bias supply is the notebooks 95% efficient 5v system supply. keeping the bias supply external to the ic improves efficiency and eliminates the cost associated with the 5v linear regulator that would otherwise be needed to supply the pwm circuit and gate drivers. if stand-alone capability is needed, the 5v supply can be generated with an external linear regulator such as the max1615. the 5v bias supply powers both the pwm controller and internal gate-drive power, so the maximum current drawn is: i bias = i q + f sw q g(mosfets) = 2ma to 20ma (typ) where i q is the current for the pwm control circuit, f sw is the switching frequency, and q g(mosfets) is the total gate-charge specification limits at v gs = 5v for the internal mosfets. free-running constant-on-time pwm controller with input feed-forward the quick-pwm control architecture is a pseudo-fixed-frequency, constant on-time, current-mode regulator with voltage feed-forward. this architecture utilizes the output filter capacitors esr to act as a current-sense resistor, so the output ripple voltage can provide the pwm ramp signal. in addition to the general quick- pwm, the max17000a also senses the inductor current through dcr method or with a sensing resistor. therefore, it is less dependent on the output capacitor esr for stability. the control algorithm is simple: the high-side switch on-time is determined solely by a one- shot whose pulse width is inversely proportional to input voltage and directly proportional to output voltage. another one-shot sets a minimum off-time (250ns typ). the on-time one-shot is triggered if the error compara- tor is low, the low-side switch current is below the valley current-limit threshold, and the minimum off-time one- shot has timed out. on-time one-shot the heart of the pwm core is the one-shot that sets thehigh-side switch on-time. this fast, low-jitter, adjustable one-shot includes circuitry that varies the on-time in response to battery and output voltages. the high-side switch on-time is inversely proportional to the battery voltage as measured by the v in input, and proportional to the output voltage.an external resistor between the input power source and ton pin sets the switching frequency per phase according to the following equation: where c ton = 16.26pf, and 0.075v is an approxima- tion to accommodate for the expected drop across thelow-side mosfet switch. this algorithm results in a nearly constant switching frequency despite the lack of a fixed-frequency clock generator. for loads above the critical conduction point, where the dead-time effect is no longer a factor, the actual switch- ing frequency is: where v dis is the sum of the parasitic voltage drops in the inductor discharge path, including synchronousrectifier, inductor, and pcb resistances; v chg is the sum of the parasitic voltage drops in the charging path,including the high-side switch, inductor, and pcb resis- tances; and t on is the on-time calculated by the max17000a. automatic pulse-skipping mode ( skip = agnd) in skip mode ( skip = agnd), an inherent automatic switchover to pfm takes place at light loads. thisswitchover is affected by a comparator that truncates the low-side switch on-time at the inductor currents zero crossing. dc output-accuracy specifications refer to the thresh- old of the error comparator. when the inductor is in continuous conduction, the max17000a regulates the valley of the output ripple, so the actual dc output volt- age is higher than the trip level by 50% of the output ripple voltage. in discontinuous conduction ( skip = agnd and i out < i load(skip) ), the output voltage has a dc regulation level higher than the error-comparatorthreshold by approximately 1.5% due to slope compen- sation. however, the internal integrator corrects for most of it, resulting in very little load regulation. the max17000a always uses skip mode during start- up, regardless of the skip and stdby setting. the skip and stdby controls take effect after soft-start is done. see figure 3. f vv tvv v sw out dis on in chg dis = + + () f cr k sw ton ton = + 1 65 (. ) t cr kv v v on ton ton csl in = + + (. ) (.) 65 0075 downloaded from: http:///
max17000a complete ddr2 and ddr3 memory power-management solution 19 maxim integrated forced-pwm mode ( skip = v cc ) the low-noise forced-pwm mode ( skip = v cc ) disables the zero-crossing comparator, which controls the low-side switch on-time. this forces the low-side gate-drive waveform to constantly be the complement of the high- side gate-drive waveform, so the inductor current reverses at light loads while dh maintains a duty factorof v out /v in . the benefit of forced-pwm mode is to keep a fairly constant switching frequency. however, forced-pwm operation comes at a cost: the no-load 5v bias current remains between 2ma to 20ma, depending on the switching frequency. stdby = agnd overrides the skip pin setting, forcing the max17000a into standby.the max17000a switches to forced-pwm mode during shutdown, regardless of the state of skip and stdby levels. standby mode ( stdby ) it should be noted that standby mode in themax17000a corresponds to computer system standby operation, and is not referring to the max17000a shut- down status. when standby mode is enabled ( stdby = agnd), vtt is disabled (high impedance) but vttr remainsactive. when standby mode is disabled ( stdby = v cc ), the vtt block is enabled and the vtt output capacitor ischarged. the vtt soft-start current limit increases lin- early from zero to its maximum current limit in 160s (typ), keeping the input vtti inrush low. see figure 4. inductor current i load = i peak /2 on-time 0 time i peak l v in - v out i t = figure 3. pulse-skipping/discontinuous crossover point stdby vttr output smps output pgood1 standby timing vtt outputvtt current limit pgood2 160 s vtt high-impedance figure 4. max17000a standby mode timing downloaded from: http:///
max17000a complete ddr2 and ddr3 memory power-management solution 20 maxim integrated valley current-limit protection the max17000a uses the same valley current-limit pro-tection employed on all maxim quick-pwm controllers. if the current exceeds the valley current-limit threshold, the pwm controller is not allowed to initiate a new cycle. the actual peak current is greater than the valley cur- rent-limit threshold by an amount equal to the inductor ripple current. therefore, the exact current-limit charac- teristic and maximum load capability are a function of the inductor value and battery voltage. when combined with the undervoltage-protection circuit, this current-limit method is effective in almost every circumstance. in forced-pwm mode, the max17000a also implements a negative current limit to prevent excessive reverse inductor currents when v out is sinking current. the negative current-limit threshold is set to approximately115% of the positive current limit. see figure 5. power-good outputs (pgood1 and pgood2) the max17000a features two power-good outputs.pgood1 is the open-drain output for a window com- parator that continuously monitors the smps output. pgood1 is actively held low in shutdown and during soft-start and soft-shutdown. after the soft-start termi- nates, pgood1 becomes high impedance as long as the smps output voltage is between 115% (typ) and 85% (typ) of the regulation voltage. when the smps output voltage exceeds the 115%/85% regulation win- dow, the max17000a pulls pgood1 low. any fault condition on the smps output forces pgood1 and pgood2 low and latches off until the fault latch is cleared by toggling shdn or cycling v cc power below 1v. detection of an ovp event immediately pullspgood1 low, regardless of the ovp state (ovp enabled or disabled). pgood2 is the open-drain output for a window com-parator that continuously monitors the vtt output. pgood2 is actively held low in standby, shutdown, and during soft-start. pgood2 becomes high imped- ance as long as the vtt output voltage is within 10% of the regulation voltage. when the vtt output exceeds the 10% threshold, the max17000a pulls pgood2 low. if pgood2 remains low for 5ms (typ), the max17000a latches off with the soft-shutdown sequence. for logic-level output voltages, connect an external 100k pullup resistor from pgood1 and pgood2 to v dd . por, uvlo power-on reset (por) occurs when v cc rises above approximately 2v, resetting the fault latch and soft-startcircuit and preparing the controller for power-up. when ovp protection is enabled, a rising edge on por turns on the 16 discharge mosfet on csl and vtt. when ovp is disabled, the internal 16 discharge mosfets on csl and vtt also remain off.v cc undervoltage lockout (uvlo) circuitry inhibits switching until v cc reaches 4.1v (typ). when v cc rises above 4.1v, the controller activates the pwm controllerand initializes soft-start. when v cc drops below the uvlo threshold (falling edge), the controller stops, dlis pulled low, and the internal 16 discharge mosfets on the csl and vtt outputs are enabled, ifovp is enabled. soft-start and soft-shutdown soft-start and soft-shutdown for the max17000a pwmblock is voltage based. soft-start begins when shdn is driven high. during soft-start, the pwm output isramped up from 0v to the final set voltage in 1.4ms. this reduces inrush current and provides a predictable ramp-up time for power sequencing. the max17000a always uses skip mode during startup, regardless of the skip and stdby setting. the skip and stdby con- trols take effect after soft-start is done.the max17000a vtt ldo regulator uses a current-limit- ed soft-start function. when the vtt block is enabled, the internal source and sink current limits are linearly increased from zero to the full-scale limit in 160s. full- scale current limit is available when the vtt output is in regulation, or after 160s, whichever is earlier. the vttr reference buffer does not have any soft-start control. inductor current i limit i load 0 time i peak i lim(val) = i load(max) 1- lir 2 () figure 5. valley current-limit threshold point downloaded from: http:///

max17000a complete ddr2 and ddr3 memory power-management solution 26 maxim integrated the maximum esr to meet ripple requirements is:where f sw is the switching frequency. with most chemistries (polymer, tantalum, aluminum,electrolytic), the actual capacitance value required relates to the physical size needed to achieve low esr and the chemistry limits of the selected capacitor tech- nology. ceramic capacitors provide low esr, but the capacitance and voltage rating (after derating) are determined by the capacity needed to prevent v sag and v soar from causing problems during load tran- sients. generally, once enough capacitance is addedto meet the overshoot requirement, undershoot at the rising load edge is no longer a problem. thus, the out- put capacitor selection requires carefully balancing capacitor chemistry limitations (capacitance vs. esr vs. voltage rating) and cost. pwm output capacitor stability considerations for quick-pwm controllers, stability is determined by thein-phase feedback ripple relative to the switching frequen- cy, which is typically dominated by the output esr. the boundary of instability is given by the following equation: where c out is the total output capacitance, r esr is the total equivalent series resistance of the output capaci-tors, r sense is the effective current-sense resistance (see figure 7), and a cs is the current-sense gain of 2. for a standard 300khz application, the effective zerofrequency must be well below 95khz, preferably below 50khz. with these frequency requirements, standard tantalum and polymer capacitors already commonly used have typical esr zero frequencies below 50khz, allowing the stability requirements to be achieved with- out any additional current-sense compensation. in the standard application circuit (figure 1), the esr needed to support a 15mv p-p ripple is 15mv/(10a x 0.3) = 5m . two 330f, 9m polymer capacitors in parallel provide 4.5m (max) esr and 1/(2 x 330f x 9m ) = 53khz esr zero frequency.ceramic capacitors have a high-esr zero frequency, but applications with sufficient current-sense compen- sation can still take advantage of the small size, low esr, and high reliability of the ceramic chemistry. by the inductor current dcr sensing, applications with ceramic output capacitors can be compensated usingeither a dc-compensation or ac-compensation method. the dc-coupling requires fewer external com- pensation capacitors, but this also creates an output load line that depends on the inductors dcr (parasitic resistance). alternatively, the current-sense information can be ac-coupled, allowing stability to be dependent only on the inductance value and compensation com- ponents and eliminating the dc load line. when only using ceramic output capacitors, output overshoot (v soar ) typically determines the minimum output capacitance requirement. their relatively lowcapacitance value can allow significant output over- shoot when stepping from full-load to no-load condi- tions, unless a small inductor value and high switching frequency are used to minimize the energy transferred from inductor to capacitor during load-step recovery. unstable operation manifests itself in two related, but distinctly different ways: double pulsing and feedback loop instability. double pulsing occurs due to noise on the output or because the esr is so low that there is not enough voltage ramp in the output voltage signal. this fools the error comparator into triggering a new cycle immediately after the minimum off-time period has expired. double pulsing is more annoying than harmful, resulting in nothing worse than increased output ripple. however, it can indicate the possible presence of loop instability due to insufficient esr. loop instability can result in oscillations at the output after line or load steps. such perturbations are usually damped, but can cause the output voltage to rise above or fall below the tolerance limits. the easiest method for checking stability is to apply a very fast zero-to-max load transient and carefully observe the output voltage ripple envelope for over- shoot and ringing. it can help to simultaneously monitor the inductor current with an ac current probe. do not allow more than one cycle of ringing after the initial step-response undervoltage/overshoot. input capacitor selection the input capacitor must meet the ripple currentrequirement (i rms ) imposed by the switching currents. the i rms requirements can be determined by the fol- lowing equation:the worst-case rms current requirement occurs when operating with v in = 2v out . at this point, the above equation simplifies to: i rms = 0.5 x i load i i v vvv rms load in out in out = ? ? ? ? ? ?

max17000a complete ddr2 and ddr3 memory power-management solution 27 maxim integrated for most applications, nontantalum chemistries (ceramic,aluminum, or os-con) are preferred due to their resis- tance to inrush surge currents typical of systems with a mechanical switch or connector in series with the input. if the quick-pwm controller is operated as the second stage of a two-stage power-conversion system, tanta- lum input capacitors are acceptable. in either configu- ration, choose an input capacitor that exhibits less than +10c temperature rise at the rms input current for optimal circuit longevity. mosfet selection most of the following mosfet guidelines focus on thechallenge of obtaining high load-current capability when using high-voltage (> 20v) ac adapters. low- current applications usually require less attention. the high-side mosfet (n h ) must be able to dissipate the resistive losses plus the switching losses at bothv in(min) and v in(max) . calculate both these sums. ideally, the losses at v in(min) should be roughly equal to losses at v in(max) , with lower losses in between. if the losses at v in(min) are significantly higher than the losses at v in(max) , consider increasing the size of n h (reducing r ds(on) but with higher c gate ). conversely, if the loss- es at v in(max) are significantly higher than the losses at v in(min) , consider reducing the size of n h (increasing r ds(on) to lower c gate ). if v in does not vary over a wide range, the minimum power dissipation occurswhere the resistive losses equal the switching losses. choose a low-side mosfet that has the lowest possi- ble on-resistance (r ds(on) ), comes in a moderate-sized package (i.e., one or two 8-pin sos, dpak, or d 2 pak), and is reasonably priced. make sure that the dl gatedriver can supply sufficient current to support the gate charge and the current injected into the parasitic gate- to-drain capacitor caused by the high-side mosfet turning on; otherwise, cross-conduction problems can occur (see the mosfet gate drivers (dh, dl) section). mosfet power dissipation worst-case conduction losses occur at the duty factorextremes. for the high-side mosfet (n h ), the worst- case power dissipation due to resistance occurs at theminimum input voltage: generally, a small high-side mosfet is desired to reduce switching losses at high input voltages. however, the r ds(on) required to stay within package power dissipation often limits how small the mosfet can be. again, the optimum occurs when the switchinglosses equal the conduction (r ds(on) ) losses. high- side switching losses do not usually become an issueuntil the input is greater than approximately 15v. calculating the power dissipation in high-side mosfet (n h ) due to switching losses is difficult since it must allow for difficult quantifying factors that influence theturn-on and turn-off times. these factors include the internal gate resistance, gate charge, threshold voltage, source inductance, and pcb layout characteristics. the following switching-loss calculation provides only a very rough estimate and is no substitute for breadboard evaluation, preferably including verification using a thermocouple mounted on n h : where c oss is the n h mosfets output capacitance, q g(sw) is the charge needed to turn on the n h mosfet, and i gate is the peak gate-drive source/sink current (2.2a typ).switching losses in the high-side mosfet can become an insidious heat problem when maximum ac adapter voltages are applied, due to the squared term in the c x v in 2 x f sw switching-loss equation. if the high-side mosfet chosen for adequate r ds(on) at low battery voltages becomes extraordinarily hot when biased fromv in(max) , consider choosing another mosfet with lower parasitic capacitance.for the low-side mosfet (n l ), the worst-case power dissipation always occurs at maximum input voltage:the worst case for mosfet power dissipation occurs under heavy overloads that are greater than i load(max) , but are not quite high enough to exceed the current limit and cause the fault latch to trip. to pro-tect against this possibility, the circuit can be over designed to tolerate: ii i load valley max inductor =+ ? ? ? ? ? ?

max17000a complete ddr2 and ddr3 memory power-management solution 29 maxim integrated since the gain bandwidth is also determined by thetransconductance of the output fets, which increases with load current, the output capacitor might need to be greater than 20f if the load current exceeds 1.5a, but can be smaller than 20f if the maximum load current is less than 1.5a. as a guideline, choose the minimum capacitance and maximum esr for the output capaci- tor using the following: c out_min needs to be increased by a factor of 2 for low-dropout operation:r esr_max value is measured at the unity-gain-band- width frequency given by approximately:once these conditions for stability are met, additional capacitors, including those of electrolytic and tantalum types, can be connected in parallel to the ceramic capacitor (if desired) to further suppress noise or volt- age ripple at the output. vttr output capacitor selection the vttr buffer is a scaled-down version of the vttregulator, with much smaller output transconductance. its compensation capacitor can, therefore, be smaller and its esr larger than what is required for its larger counterpart. for typical applications requiring load cur- rent up to 4ma, a ceramic capacitor with a minimum value of 0.33f is recommended (r esr < 0.3 ). connect this capacitor between vttr and the analogground plane. power dissipation power loss in the max17000a is the sum of the lossesof the pwm block, the vtt ldo block, and the vttr reference buffer: the 2w total power dissipation is within the 24-pintqfn multilayer board power dissipation specification of 2.22w. the typical application does not source or sink continuous high currents. vtt current is typically 100ma to 200ma in the steady state. vttr is down in the microamp range, though the intel specification requires 3ma for ddr1 and 1ma for ddr2. true worst- case power dissipation occurs on an output short-circuit condition with worst-case current limit. the max17000a does not employ any foldback current limiting, and relies on the internal thermal shutdown for protection. both the vtt and vttr output stages are powered from the same vtti input. their output voltages are refer- enced to the same refin input. the value of the vtti bypass capacitor is chosen to limit the amount of rip- ple/noise at vtti, or the amount of voltage dip during a load transient. typically, vtti is connected to the output of the buck regulator, which already has a large bulk capacitor. boost capacitors the boost capacitors (c bst ) must be selected large enough to handle the gate-charging requirements ofthe high-side mosfets. typically, 0.1f ceramic capacitors work well for low-power applications driving medium-sized mosfets. however, high-current appli- cations driving large, high-side mosfets require boost capacitors larger than 0.1f. for these applications, select the boost capacitors to avoid discharging the capacitor more than 200mv while charging the high- side mosfets gates: where q gate is the total gate charge specified in the high-side mosfets data sheet. for example, assumethe fds6612a n-channel mosfet is used on the high side. according to the manufacturers data sheet, a sin- gle fds6612a has a maximum gate charge of 13nc (v gs = 5v). using the above equation, the required boost capacitance would be:selecting the closest standard value, this example requires a 0.1f ceramic capacitor. c nc mv f bst == 13 200 0 065 . c q mv bst gate = 200 pd total w () = 2 pd vttr ma v mw () . . == 30 92 7 pd vtt a v w () . . = = 20918 pd pwm i v ma v w bias () . == = 54 0 502 f c i a gbw out load = 36 15 . rm a i esr max load _ . = 5 15 cf i a out min load _ . = 20 15 downloaded from: http:///
max17000a complete ddr2 and ddr3 memory power-management solution 30 maxim integrated applications information pcb layout guidelines careful pcb layout is critical to achieve low switchinglosses and clean, stable operation. the switching power stage requires particular attention. if possible, mount all the power components on the topside of the board, with their ground terminals flush against one another. follow these guidelines for good pcb layout: ? keep the high-current paths short, especially at the ground terminals. this practice is essential for sta-ble, jitter-free operation. ? keep the power traces and load connections short. this practice is essential for high efficiency. usingthick copper pcbs (2oz vs. 1oz) can enhance full- load efficiency by 1% or more. correctly routing pcb traces is a difficult task that must be approached in terms of fractions of centimeters, where a single milliohm of excess trace resistance causes a measurable efficiency penalty. ? minimize current-sensing errors by connecting csh and csl directly across the current-sense resistor(r sense ). ? when trade-offs in trace lengths must be made, it is preferable to allow the inductor-charging path to bemade longer than the discharge path. for example, it is better to allow some extra distance between the input capacitors and the high-side mosfet than to allow distance between the inductor and the low- side mosfet or between the inductor and the out- put filter capacitor. ? route high-speed switching nodes (bst, lx, dh, and dl) away from sensitive analog areas (refin,fb, csh, and csl). layout procedure 1) place the power components first, with ground ter- minals adjacent (low-side mosfet source, c in , c out , and anode of the low-side schottky). if possi- ble, make all these connections on the top layerwith wide, copper-filled areas. 2) mount the controller ic adjacent to the low-side mosfet, preferably on the backside opposite themosfets to keep lx, gnd, dh, and the dl gate- drive lines short and wide. the dl and dh gate traces must be short and wide (50 mils to 100 mils wide if the mosfet is 1in from the controller ic) to keep the driver impedance low and for proper adaptive dead-time sensing. 3) group the gate-drive components (bst diode and capacitor, v dd bypass capacitor) together near the controller ic. 4) make the dc-dc controller ground connections as shown in figures 1 and 9. this diagram can beviewed as having two separate ground planes: power ground, where all the high-power compo- nents go; and an analog ground plane for sensitive analog components. the analog ground plane and power ground plane must meet only at a single point directly at the ic. 5) connect the output power planes directly to the out- put filter capacitor positive and negative terminalswith multiple vias. place the entire dc-to-dc con- verter circuit as close as is practical to the load. table 5 lists the design differences between themax17000 and max17000a. max17000 max17000a stdb = low turns off vtt and overrides the skip setting, forcing the smps to enter a low-quiescent current ultra-skip mode. stdb = low only turns off vtt rail, and does not affect smps operation. table 5. max17000 vs. max17000a design differences downloaded from: http:///
