The 171936001 MagI3C Module requires a capacitor (CVCC) to be placed at the VCC pin to support the internal LDO integratedinsideofthemodule. Toensurestableoperationandoptimumperformanceacrosstheentirefunctionalrange,a 0.47µFcapacitorisrecommended. TheWürthElektronik885012207049capacitorhasbeenexperimentallyevaluatedfor performanceandistherecommendedchoice.

Theswitchingfrequencymustbeselectedaccordingtotheoutputvoltageforthebestperformanceinloopregulationand transientresponse. Thisisdonebychoosingaresistorvaluefromthetablebelowbasedontheapplicationconditions. This resistorcaneitherbe tieddirectlyto GNDfora fixedswitchingfrequency, indicatedin thetablebelow, orit canbetiedto VCC, allowing for spread spectrum operation. Spread spectrum operation will allow for a change in switching frequency typicallyof ± 5%. Thepeaksoftheswitchingspectrumwillbereducedandspread,reducingthefilternecessarytocomply withEN55032RadiatedandConductedStandards. ThedifferenceinEMIbehaviorcanbeseeninthe EMIsectionofthedata sheet.

For high conversion ratios, when the input voltage gets very close to the full input voltage, the minimum on-time will be violated. In order to maintain a proper operation of the power module, the minimum on-time is masked and pulses are skipped, even under FPWM operation. Sticking to the recommended switching frequency results in minimizing the range wheremaskingtheon-timeandpulseskippingtakesplace. Thesevalueshavebeenexperimentallyvalidatedforoptimum performance with the given output voltages. Deviation from the recommendations is taken at the user’s own risk and shouldbeexperimentallyevaluatedinthedesignatedapplicationtoensureproperfunctionality.

15 MODES OF OPERATION

The 171936001 power module has two different modes of operation and the transition takes place automatically depending on the load current value. Under light load conditions, the module operates in PFM mode where the Module runs at a lower switching frequency to reduce the current consumption, which leads to achieving a higher efficiency. The PFM control is achieved by creating a single pulse to turn on the high side switch while monitoring the inductor current. Thehighsideswitchiskeptonuntiltheinductorcurrenthitsapresetvalueof80mA(typ.). After reaching this value, the high side switch is turned off and the low side switch turns on. The inductor current decreases until it reaches zero. When the inductor current reaches zero, both switches are turned off (idle time) and the outputcapacitorsolelysuppliestheloadwithenergy. Whiletheenergyissuppliedtotheload,theoutputvoltagestartsto drop. The Module monitors the output voltage value and when it hits a certain limit, while the two switches are off, anotherpulseisinitiatedandthecyclerepeats. Whentheloadcurrentincreases,theidletimedecreasesandtheswitching frequencyincreasesuntilthenominalswitchingfrequencyisreachedandtheModuletransitionstoPWMmode. The module will only transfer to PFM mode if the MODE/SYNC pin is connected to GND otherwise by connecting the MODE/SYNCpintoVCCthemoduleisforcedtostayinPWMoperationevenunderlightloadcondition. At higher values of Vin the minimum on time can be violated. When this happens the power module will skip pulse even duringFPWMtokeeptheoutputvoltageinregulation.

17 PROTECTION FEATURES

17.1 Overcurrent Protection (OCP) and Short Circuit Protection (SCP)

TheMagI3C171936001powermoduleimplementsacycle-by-cyclecurrentlimit(seeI OCP inELECTRICALSPECIFICATION), which is realized through the peak current mode control architecture of the power module. The peak current of the high sideswitchandthevalleycurrentofthelowsideswitcharebothmonitored. Additionally,limitingthevalleycurrentduring an overcurrent scenario reduces the thermal stresses generated inside of the power module by reducing the rms current value. By monitoring both switch currents the user can be confident that the power module will be well protected against overcurrent and short circuit scenarios even in the most extreme conditions of operation, such as very high or low duty cycles. Underverylowdutycycleconditions,thepeakcurrentcanexceedtheovercurrentpresetvalue. Whenthisoccurs, thelowsideswitchisturnedonuntilthecurrentdropsbelowthepresetvalleycurrentvalue. Thisbehaviormayresultin pulse skipping, temporarily decreasing the effective switching frequency in order to better protect the power module duringovercurrentscenarios. 100 time in µs 2.5 5.0 7.5 10.0Voltage in V 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1.0 Current in A Vout Iout Figure24:171936001overcurrentprotectionV IN =48V,V OUT =5V,I OUT =0Ato0.47A.

ThethresholdsoftheinternalUVLOareindicatedinthe ELECTRICALSPECIFICATIONS.

17.6 External Clock Synchronization (Sync)

The 171936001 MagI3C power module allows synchronization of the power module’s switching frequency with an external clock source as a reference. This feature is beneficial when the user requires a switching frequency other than those offered by default by the power module, for instance to better optimize performance factors such as EMI for a specificapplication. TorealizethisfeatureanexternalclockisdirectlyconnectedtotheMODE/SYNCpin. Iftheexternalclockisinterrupedfor 14µstheinternalclockdeterminedbytheexternalresistortoselecttheswitchingfrequencyactivates. Theexternalclock isspecifiedinthe ELECTRICALSPECIFICATIONS section. It is recommended to use the default switching frequency, through the resistor RFSW, closest to the external source frequency. The value of RENT is calculated to choose the UVLO value as explained in the Enable/Adjustable UVLO section above.
