This device contains an internal, low resistance, high voltage power MOSFET, and operates at a high 500k operating frequency to ensure a compact, high efficiency design with excellent AC and DC performance. Error Amplifier The error amplifier compares the FB pin voltage with the internal FB reference (V FB) and outputs a current proportional to the difference between the two. This output current is then used to charge or discharge the internal compensation network to form the COMP voltage, which is used to control the power MOSFET current. The optimized internal compensation network minimizes the external component counts and simplifies the control loop design. Internal Soft-Start The soft-start is important for many appl ications because it eliminates power -up initialization problems. The controlled voltage ramp of the output also reduces peak inrush current during start -up, minimizing start -up transient events to the input power bus. Over-Current-Protection and Hiccup The A7222A has a cycle-by-cycle over-current limit for when the inductor current peak value exceeds the set current-limit threshold. First, when the output voltage drops until FB falls below the Under -Voltage (UV) threshold (typically 140mV) to trigger a UV event, the A7222A enters hiccup mode to periodically restart the part. This protection mode is especially useful when the output is dead- shorted to ground. This greatly reduces the average short-circuit current to alleviate thermal issues and to protect the regulator. The A7222A exits hiccup mode once the overcurrent condition is removed. Startup and Shutdown If both VIN and EN are higher than their appropriate thresholds, the chip starts. The reference block starts first, generating stable reference vol tage and currents, and then the internal regulator is enabled. The regulator provides stable supply for the remaining circuitries. Three events can shut down the chip: EN low, VIN low and thermal shutdown. In the shutdown procedure, the signaling path is f irst blocked to avoid any fault triggering. The COMP voltage and the internal supply rail are then pulled down. The floating driver is not subject to this shutdown command.

The feedback resistor R1 also sets the feedback loop bandwidth with the internal compensation capacitor. R1, R2 is then given by: Selecting the Inductor Use a 2.2μH-to-10μH inductor with a DC current rating of at least 25% percent higher than the maximum load current for most applications. For highest efficiency, select an inductor with a DC resistance less than 15mΩ. For most designs, derive the inductance value from the following equation. L = Where ΔIL is the inductor ripple current. Choose an inductor current approximately 30% of the maximum load current. The maximum inductor peak current is: IL(MAX) = ILOAD + Under light-load conditions (below 100mA), use a larger inductor to improve efficiency. Selecting the Output Capacitor The output capacitor (C2) maintains the DC output voltage. Use ceramic, tantalum, or low -ESR electrolytic capacitors. Use low ESR capacitors to limit the output voltage ripple. Estimate the output voltage ripple with: ΔVOUT = Where L is the inductor value and RESR is the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the output capacitor. For ceramic capacitors, the capacitance dominates the impedance at the switching frequency and causes most of the output voltage ripple. For simplification, estimate the output voltage ripple with: ΔVOUT =

For simplification, the output ripple can be approximated with: ΔVOUT = The characteristics of the output capacitor also affect the stability of the regulation system. The A7222A can be optimized for a wide range of capacitance and ESR values. PC BOARD LAYOUT PCB layout is very important to achieve stable operation. For best results, use the following guidelines and figures as reference. 1) Keep the connection between the input ground and GND pin as short and wide as possible. 2) Keep the connection between the input capacitor and V IN pin as short and wide as possible. 3) Use short and direct feedback connections. Place the feedback resistors and compensation components as close to the chip as possible. 4) Route SW away from sensitive analog areas such as FB.
