DESCRIPTION

The ARG81300 is a single-channel low-noise block regulator (LNBR). The ARG81300 consists of a monolithic boost converter followed by a low-drop linear regulator. It is specifically designed to provide the power and the interface signals to an LNB down converter via coaxial cable in satellite TV receiver systems. The ARG81300 requires few external components, with the boost switch and compensation circuitry integrated inside of the device. The 704 kHz switching frequency and user-controlled output current limit minimize the size of the passive filtering components. The I 2C™-compatible interface provides control capabilities for complex system requirements, as well as diagnostic capabilities for system fault reporting. A sleep pin is available to maximize power savings and to quickly shut down the device if needed, without using I2C™ control. The ARG81300 is provided in a small 3 × 3 mm QFN package with exposed pad for thermal dissipation. It is lead (Pb) free, with 100% matte-tin leadframe plating. 81300-DS, Rev. 2 MCO-0000128 Single LNB Supply and Control Voltage Regulator Functional Block Diagram ARG81300 LNB BOOST VOUT D3 and D4 are used for surge protection.

Single LNB Supply and Control Voltage RegulatorARG81300 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION Boost Converter/Linear Regulator The ARG81300 solution contains a tracking current-mode boost converter and linear regulator. The boost converter tracks the requested LNB voltage to within 800 mV , to minimize power dissipation. Under conditions where the input voltage, V BOOST , is greater than the output voltage, VLNB, the linear regulator must drop the differential voltage. When operating in these conditions, care must be taken to ensure that the safe operating temperature range of the ARG81300 is not exceeded. The boost converter operates at 704 kHz typical. All the loop compensation, current sensing, and slope compensation functions are provided internally. The ARG81300 has internal pulse-by-pulse current limiting on the boost converter and DC current limiting on the LNB output to protect the IC against short circuits. When the LNB output is shorted, the LNB output current is limited, and if the overcur- rent condition lasts for more than 45 ms, the LNB output will be disabled. If this occurs, the ARG81300 output must be re-enabled for normal operation. The system should provide sufficient time between successive restarts to limit internal power dissipation; 1 to 2 seconds is recommended. Two or more satellite set top boxes LNBR outputs may be con- nected together (for example in the case when a splitter is used). In this case the ARG81300 that has the highest programmed voltage will supply the LNB and all other ARG81300s will effectively be off. If the output of the ARG81300 IC supplying the LNB drops below the programmed value of the next highest voltage ARG81300, that unit will automatically recover from pro- viding no-output voltage, monotonically start up and supply the voltage at its programmed level. This unit will supply the LNB power. Boost Converter Operation Under Light Load: At extremely light load or no load, if the BOOSTx voltage tries to exceed the BOOSTx target voltage, the boost converter operates with mini- mum on-time. The BOOSTx settling voltage depends on: supply voltage, boost inductance, minimum on-time, switching frequency, output power, as well as power loss in the boost inductor, capaci- tor, and the ARG81300. If the BOOSTx voltage exceeds 28 V , the ARG81300 enters into pulse skipping with 350 mV hysteresis. Charge Pump: Generates a supply voltage above the internal tracking regulator output to drive the linear regulator control. LNB and BOOST Current Limits: The LNB output current limit, ILNB(MAX), can be set by connecting a resistor (RSET) from the ISET pin to GND as shown in the functional block diagram. For example, 300 mA and 500 mA settings would correspond to RSET values of 100 kΩ and 60.4 kΩ respectively, per equation 1. The LNB current limit has a set range of 250 to 950 mA, with the maximum value dependent on thermal design parameters of a given application. If the LNB current limit is exceeded for more than the Overcurrent Disable Time (tDIS), then the ARG81300 will be shut down and the OCP bit set, as shown in Figure 1. The typical LNB output current limit can be set according to the fol- lowing equation: ILNB(MAX) = 29,925 / RSET , (1) where ILNB(MAX) is in mA and RSET is in kΩ. If the voltage at the ISET pin is 0 V (that is, shorted to GND), ILNB(MAX) will be clamped to a moderately high value (approximately 1.5 A). Care should be taken to ensure that ISET is not inadvertently grounded. If no resistor is connected to the ISET pin (that is, if ISET is open-circuit), ILNB(MAX) will be set to approximately 0 A and the ARG81300 will not support any load (OCP will occur prematurely). The BOOST pulse-by-pulse current limit, IBOOST(MAX), is auto- matically scaled along with the LNB output current limit. The typical BOOST current limit is set according to the following equation: IBOOST(MAX) = 3 × ILNB(MAX) + 1100 mA , (2) where both IBOOST(MAX) and ILNB(MAX) are in mA. Automatically scaling the BOOST current limit allows the designer to choose the lowest possible saturation current of the boost inductor, reducing its physical size and PCB area, thus minimizing cost.

Slew Rate Control: During either start-up, or when the output voltage at the LNB pin is transitioning, the output voltage rise and fall times can be set by the value of the capacitor connected from the TCAP pin to GND (C7 in the functional block diagram). Note that during start-up, the BOOST pin is precharged to the input voltage minus a voltage drop. As a result, the slew rate control for the BOOST pin occurs from this voltage. The value of C7 can be calculated using the following formula: C7 = ( ITCAP × 6) / SR , (3) where SR is the required slew rate of the LNB output voltage, in V/s, and ITCAP is the TCAP pin current specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. The recommended value for C7, 100 nF, should provide satisfactory operation for most applications. The minimum value of C7 is 10 nF. There is no theoretical maxi- mum value of C7, however too large a value will probably cause the voltage transition specification to be exceeded. Tone genera- tion is unaffected by the value of C7. Pull-Down Rate Control: In applications that must operate at very light loads and that require large load capacitances (in the order of tens to hundreds of microfarads), the output linear stage provides approximately 30 mA of pull-down capability, with TONECTRL = 0. This ensures that the LNB output voltage is ramped from 18 to 13 V in a reasonable amount of time. When the tone is on (TONECTRL = 1), the output linear stage must increase its pull-down capability to approximately 60 mA. This ensures that the tone signal meets all specifications, even with no load on the LNB output. ODT (Overcurrent Disable Time) If the LNB output current exceeds the set output current for more than t DIS , then the LNB output will be disabled and the OCP bit will be set. See Figure 1. Short Circuit Handling The ARG81300 has an optional 25% bump-up on current limit for tDIS /4 period. This feature is enabled / disabled by setting or resetting OCP_25P bit in Control Register. When this bit is enabled, the output current limit will be 25% more than set cur- rent limit for t DIS /4 period. After tDIS /4 period, output current

Single LNB Supply and Control Voltage RegulatorARG81300 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com limit comes down to the set limit and the OCP_25P bit is reset to zero, The user must set this bit again to enable 25% bump-up on the next current limit event. If the OCP_25P bit is zero when LNB output is shorted to ground, the LNB output current will be clamped to I LNB(MAX) . If the short-circuit condition lasts for more than 45 ms, the ARG81300 will be disabled and the OCP bit will be set. Refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11. In-Rush Current At start-up or during an LNB reconfiguration event, a transient surge current above the normal DC operating level can be pro- vided by the ARG81300. This current increase can be as high as the set output current, for as long as required, up to a maxi- mum of 45 ms. Cable Disconnect Detection The ARG81300 does not go to pulse skipping if the BOOSTx voltage settles below 28 V(typ); this facilitates increased boost voltage that can be used to detect the cable disconnect. If the given application and supply voltage will ensure BOOST voltage exceed 23.7 V(typ) at no-load, the Status register bit CAD is set. This bit can be used for cable disconnect detection. For cable dis- connect test, keep SINK_DIS control register bit to 1 to disable internal current sink. For normal operation, this bit can be set 0 or 1. Typically, V IN should be greater than 12 V to generate 23.7 V on boost node for CAD detection. TONE GENERATION The ARG81300 offers two options for tone generation (Figure 2). The TONECTRL pin with the TMODE control bit provides the necessary control. The TMODE bit controls whether the tone source is internal or external. When the internal source is used (TMODE bit set to 0), the tone is gated with the TONECTRL pin. The internal tone frequency is 22 kHz. Note: This tone can be generated under no-load condi- tions and does not require an external DiSEqC™ filter. When the TMODE bit is set to 1, an external 22-kHz tone signal can be applied to the TONECTRL pin. This tone frequency appears at the LNB output, V LNB reaches the VLNBref level after TONECTRL has been low for longer than 42 µs. Component Selection BOOST INDUCTOR The ARG81300 is designed to operate with a boost inductor value of 10 µH ±50%. The error amplifier loop compensation, current sense gain, and PWM slope compensation were chosen for this value of inductor. The boost inductor must be able to sup- port the peak currents required to maintain the maximum LNB output current without saturating. Figure 3 can be used to deter- mine the peak current in the inductor given the LNB load current. The “typical” curve uses V IN = 12 V , VLNB = 19 V , L = 10 µH, and f = 704 kHz, while the “maximum” curve assumes VIN = 9 V , VLNB = 20 V , L = 8 µH, and f = 633 kHz.

Single LNB Supply and Control Voltage RegulatorARG81300 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com BOOST CAPACITORS The ARG81300 is designed to operate with three or four high- quality ceramic capacitors on the boost node. Allegro recom- mends capacitors that are rated at least 35 V , ±10%, X7R, 1210 size. Physically smaller capacitors, like 0603 and 0805, with lower temperature ratings, like X5R and Z5U, should be avoided. The nominal boost capacitance should total 18.8 to 30 μF. Allegro recommends either four 4.7 μF or three 10 μF capacitors, with the characteristics shown in Table 1. If tolerance, temperature, and DC bias effects are considered, the capacitance must total at least 13 μF. The DC bias effect is very significant on ceramic capacitors with lower voltage ratings, smaller packages, or wider temperature characteristics. For example, a 10 μF, 25 V , 1206, X5R capacitor can lose 85% of its value at 20 VDC bias. For good gain and phase margins on boost converter, use effective boost capacitance higher than 12 µF. Two possible ceramic based capacitor solutions have been pre- sented. Other capacitor combinations are certainly possible, such as a very low ESR electrolytic capacitor in parallel with several microfarads of ceramic capacitance. However, there are two critical requirements that must be satisfied: 1) the zero formed by the electrolytic capacitor and its ESR should be at least 1 decade higher than the 0 dB crossover of the boost loop (typically around 25 kHz), and 2) the ceramic capacitors must eliminate the high- frequency switching spikes/edges in the boost voltage, or the LNB output noise will be too high. Figure 4 can be used to determine the necessary rms current rating of the boost capacitor given the LNB load current. The “typical” curve uses V IN = 12 V , VLNB = 19 V , L = 10 µH, and f = 704 kHz while the “maximum” curve assumes VIN = 9 V , VLNB = 20 V , L = 8 µH, and f = 633 kHz.

Single LNB Supply and Control Voltage RegulatorARG81300 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com BOOST FILTERING AND LNB NOISE The LNB output noise depends on the amount of high-frequency noise at the BOOST pin. To minimize the high-frequency noise at the BOOST pin, a high quality ceramic capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the BOOST pin. SURGE COMPONENTS The circuit shown on page 1 of this datasheet includes D3 and D4 for surge protection. Component recommendations for D3 and D4 are given in Table 7. This configuration and these components have successfully passed surge tests up to ±1000 V / 500 A, with a 1.2/50 µs − 8/20 µs combination wave. Every application will have its own surge requirements and the surge solution can be changed. However, Allegro strongly recommends incorporating a form of surge protection to prevent any pin of the ARG81300 from exceeding its Absolute Maximum voltage ratings shown in this datasheet. I 2C™-Compatible Interface The I2C™ interface is used to access the internal Control and Sta- tus registers of the ARG81300. This is a serial interface that uses two lines, serial clock (SCL) and serial data (SDA), connected to a positive supply voltage via a current source or a pull-up resistor. Data is exchanged between a microcontroller (master) and the ARG81300 (slave). The master always generates the SCL signal. Either the master or the slave can generate the SDA signal. The SDA and SCL lines from the ARG81300 are open-drain signals so multiple devices may be connected to the I2C™ bus. When the bus is free, both the SDA and the SCL lines are high. SDA and SCL Signals: SDA can only be changed while SCL is low. SDA must be stable while SCL is high. However, an excep- tion is made when the I2C™ Start or Stop condition is encoun- tered. See the I2C™ Communication section for further details. Acknowledge (AK) Bit: The Acknowledge (AK) bit indicates a “good transmission” and can be used two ways. First, if the slave has successfully received eight bits of either an address or control data, it will pull the SDA line low (AK = 0) for the ninth SCL pulse to signal “good transmission” to the master. Second, if the master has successfully received eight bits of status data from the ARG81300, it will pull the SDA line low for the ninth SCL pulse to signal “good transmission” to the slave. The receiver (either the master or the slave) should set the AK bit high (AK = 1 or NAK) for the ninth SCL pulse if eight bits of data are not received successfully. AK Bit During a Write Sequence: When the master sends control data (writes) to the ARG81300 there are three instances where AK bits are toggled by the ARG81300. First, the ARG81300 uses the AK bit to indicate reception of a valid seven- bit chip address plus a read/write bit (R/W = 0 for write). Second, the ARG81300 uses the AK bit to indicate reception of a valid eight-bit Control register address. Third, the ARG81300 uses the AK bit to indicate reception of eight bits of control data.

Single LNB Supply and Control Voltage RegulatorARG81300 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com AK Bit During a Read Sequence: When the master reads status data from the ARG81300 there are four instances where AK bits are sent–three sent by the ARG81300 and one sent by the master. First, the ARG81300 uses the AK bit to indicate reception of a valid seven-bit chip address plus a read/write bit (R/W = 0 for write). Second, the ARG81300 uses the AK bit to indicate reception of a valid eight-bit Status register address. Third, the ARG81300 uses the AK bit to indicate reception of a valid seven- bit chip address plus a read/write bit (R/W = 1 for read). Finally , the master uses the AK bit to indicate receiving eight bits of status data from the ARG81300. This protocol is shown in Figure 5(B). I2C™ Communications I2C™ Start and Stop Conditions: The I2C™ Start condition is defined by a negative edge on the SDA line while SCL is high. Conversely, the Stop condition is defined by a positive edge on the SDA line while SCL is high. The Start and Stop condi- tions are shown in Figure 5. It is possible for the Start or Stop condition to occur at any time during a data transfer. If either a Start or Stop condition is encountered during a data transfer, the ARG81300 will respond by resetting the data transfer sequence. I 2C™ Write Cycle Description: Writing to the ARG81300 Control register requires transmission of a total of 27 bits—three bytes (8 bits) of data plus an Acknowledge bit after each byte. Writing to the ARG81300 Control register is shown in Figure 5(A). Writing to the ARG81300 Control register requires a chip address with R/W = 0, a Control register address, and the control data, as follows:

  • The Chip Address cycle consists of a total of nine bits— seven bits of chip address (A6 to A0) plus one read/write bit (R/W = 0) to indicate a write from the master , followed by an Acknowledge bit (AK = 0 for reception of a valid chip address) from the slave. The chip address must be transmitted MSB (A6) first. The first five bits of the ARG81300 chip address (A6 to A2) are fixed as 00010. The remaining two bits (A1 and A0) are used to select one of four possible ARG81300 chip addresses. The DC voltage on the ADD pin programs the chip address. See the Electrical Characteristics table for the ADD pin voltages and the corresponding chip addresses.
  • The Control Register Address cycle consists of a total of nine bits—eight bits of control register address (RC7 to RC0) from the master, followed by an Acknowledge bit from the slave. The Control register address must be transmitted MSB (RC7) first. The ARG81300 only has one Control register so the Con- trol register address is 0000 0000.
  • The Control Data cycle consists of a total of nine bits—eight bits of control data (D7 to D0) from the master, followed by an Acknowledge bit from the slave. The control data must be transmitted MSB first (D7). The Control register bits are identi- fied in the Control Register section of this datasheet. I2C™ Read Cycle Description: Reading from the ARG81300 Status register requires transmission of a total of 36 bits—four bytes (8 bits) of data plus an Acknowledge bit after each byte. Reading the ARG81300 Status register requires a chip address with R/W = 0, a Status register address, an I2C™ Stop condition, an I2C™ Start condition, a “repeated” chip address with R/W=1, and finally the status data from the ARG81300. Reading from the ARG81300 Status register is shown in Figure 5(B).
  • This 9-bit Chip Address cycle is identical to the Chip Ad- dress cycle previously described for the Write Control Regis- ter sequence. It consists of A6 to A0, plus one read/write bit (R/W = 0) from the master , followed by an Acknowledge bit from the slave and finally an I2C™ Stop condition.
  • The Status Register Address cycle consists of a total of nine bits—eight bits of Status register address (RS7 to RS0) from the master, followed by an Acknowledge bit from the slave. The Status register address must be transmitted MSB (RS7) first. The ARG81300 only has one Status register, so the Status register address is fixed at 0000 0000.
  • The “Repeated” Chip Address cycle begins with an I2C™ Start condition, followed by a 9-bit cycle identical to the Chip Address cycle, previously described for the Write Control Register sequence. It consists of A6 to A0, plus one read/write bit (R/W = 1) from the master , followed by an Acknowledge bit from the slave.
  • The Status Data cycle consists of a total of nine bits—eight bits of status data (RD7 to RD0) from the slave, followed by an Acknowledge bit from the master. The status data is transmit- ted MSB (RD7) first. The Status register bits are identified in the Status Register section of this datasheet. Interrupt Request (IRQ) pin The ARG81300 provides an interrupt request pin (IRQ), which is an open-drain, active-low output. This output may be connected to a common IRQ line with a suitable external pull-up resistor and can be used with other I 2C™ compatible devices to request attention from the master controller. The IRQ output becomes active (logic low) when the ARG81300 recognizes a fault condition. The fault conditions that will force IRQ active include undervoltage lockout (UVLO), overcurrent

Single LNB Supply and Control Voltage RegulatorARG81300 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com protection (OCP), and thermal shutdown (TSD). The UVLO, OCP, and TSD faults are latched in the Status register and will not be unlatched until the ARG81300 Status register is suc- cessfully transmitted to the master controller (an AK bit must be received from the master). See the description in the Status Register section and Figure 6 for further details. When the master device receives an interrupt, it should address all slaves connected to the interrupt line in sequence and read the status register of each to determine which device is requesting attention. As shown in Figure 6, the ARG81300 latches all condi- tions in the Status register and sets the IRQ to logic low when a fault occurs. The IRQ bit is reset to logic high and the Status register is unlatched when the master acknowledges the status data from the ARG81300 (an AK bit must be received from the master). The disable (DIS), CAD, and Power Not Good (PNG) conditions do not cause an interrupt and are not latched in the Status register.

When a FAULT occurs, the IRQ bit is set to low and the Status register is latched. The IRQ bit is reset to high when the ARG81300 acknowledges it is being read. The Status register is unlatched when the master acknowledges the status data from the ARG81300. Figure 7: IRQ and Fault Clearing in Response to Under Voltage at VIN (UVLO),the I2C™ port is active when VIN is above I2C™ UVLO (6 V when VIN is rising). IRQ transitions low when VIN goes above I2C™ UVLO (6 V, VIN rising), and the I2C™ Read cycle resets IRQ to logic high even if VIN is below UVLO. Even though IRQ is cleared below UVLO, one more Read cycle is required after VIN goes above UVLO, to re-enable the ARG81300. While VIN is fall- ing, IRQ transitions low when VIN goes below UVLO, and the I2C™ Read cycle resets IRQ to logic high.

If the LNB output is grounded for more than 45 ms, the LNB output will be shut off, an overcurrent fault (OCP) will be latched in the Status Register, and the IRQ pin will transition low. After an OCP fault, the LNB output does not respond to the Enable (ENB) bit until an I2C™ Read cycle is executed to report and clear the OCP fault.

Table 3 shows the functionality and bit definitions of the Control register. At power-up, the Control register is initialized to all 0s. The LNB output will be programmed according the status of the VSEL3, VSEL2, VSEL1, and VSEL0 bits in the I 2C™ Control register 0 as outlined in Table 4.

Single LNB Supply and Control Voltage RegulatorARG81300 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com Status Registers (I2C™-Compatible Read Register) The main fault conditions: undervoltage lockout (UVLO), over- current (OCP), cable disconnect (CAD), and thermal shutdown (TSD) are all indicated by setting the relevant bits in the Status register. In all fault cases, after the bit is set, it remains latched until the I2C™ master has successfully read the ARG81300, assuming the fault has been resolved. The undervoltage lockout (UVLO) bit indicates either the input voltage at the VIN pin is too low or the ARG81300 internal sup- ply voltage (VREG) is too low. The Disable bit (DIS) indicates the status of the LNB output. The DIS is set when either a fault occurs (UVLO, OCP, TSD, or CPOK) or when the LNB output is turned off using the Enable bit (ENB) via the I 2C™ interface. The DIS bit is latched and is only reset when there are no faults and the ARG81300 output is turned back on using the Enable (ENB) bit via the I2C™ interface. The Power Not Good (PNG) and Charge Pump OK (CPOK) bits are set based on the conditions sensed at the LNB output and VCP pins, respectively. These bits are not latched and, unlike the other fault bits, may become reset without an I 2C™ read sequence. The PNG and CPOK bits are continuously updated. There are three methods to detect when the Status register changes: responding to the interrupt request (IRQ) pin going low, continuously polling the Status register via the I 2C™ interface, or detecting a fault condition external to the ARG81300 and performing a diagnostic poll of the ARG81300. In any case, the master should read and re-read the Status register until the status changes. Table 5: Status Register Description and IRQ Operation Bit Name Function Latched? Reset Condition Effect on IRQ Pin

0 DIS LNB output disabled Yes LNB enabled and no faults None

1 CPOK Charge pump OK No VCP > VBOOST + 5V None

2 OCP Overcurrent Yes I2C™ read and fault removed IRQ set low

3 CAD Cable disconnected No VLNB < 23.7 V None

4 PNG Power Not Good No LNB voltage above PNGLo level None

5 – Not used – – –

6 TSD Thermal shutdown Yes I2C™ read and fault removed IRQ set low

7 UVLO VIN or VREG undervoltage Yes I2C™ read and fault removed IRQ set low

Table 6: Status Register Bit Descriptions Bit Name Description 0 DIS The DIS bit is set to 1 when the ARG81300 is disabled, (ENB = 0) or there is a fault: UVLO, OCP, CPOK, or TSD. 1 CPOK If this bit is set low, the internal charge pump is not operating correctly (VCP). If the charge pump voltage is too low, the LNB output is disabled and the DIS bit is set.

2 OCP This bit will be set to a 1 if the LNB output current exceeds the overcurrent threshold (I

LNB(MAX)) for more than the overcurrent disable time (tDIS). If the OCP bit is set to 1, then the DIS bit is also set to 1.

3 CAD

Cable between LNB and the LNB head is disconnected. In case of no load, boost pin voltage will increase above 23.7 V and CAD will be set to 1. The CAD bit will reset if the BOOST pin voltage drop below 23.7 V. LNB voltage will be still regulated to set level.

4 PNG

Set to 1 when the ARG81300 is enabled and the LNB output voltage is too low (nominally below 9% from the LNB DAC setting). Set to 0 when the ARG81300 is enabled and the LNB voltage is nominally above 5% from the LNB DAC setting. 5 – Not used. 6 TSD The TSD bit is set to 1 if the ARG81300 has detected an overtemperature condition. If the TSD bit is set to 1, then the DIS bit is also set to 1. 7 UVLO The UVLO bit is set to 1 if either the voltage at the VIN pin or the voltage at the VREG pin is too low. If the UVLO bit is set to 1, then the DIS bit is also set to 1.
