400mA Step-Down Converter and 300mA LDO 10 2500M.2007.06.1.0 Functional Block Diagram EN_BUCK IN_BUCK LX PGND Bias Oscillator EN_LDO AGND RLDOFB1 VCC RLDOFB2 IN_LDO OUT_LDO FB_BUCK Control Circuit VCC Functional Description The AAT2500M is a high performance power man- agement IC comprised of a buck converter and a lin- ear regulator. The buck converter is a high efficien- cy converter capable of delivering up to 400mA. Operating at 1.8MHz, the converter requires only three external power components (C IN, C OUT, and LX) and is stable with a ceramic output capacitor. The linear regulator delivers 300mA and is also sta- ble with ceramic capacitors. Linear Regulator The advanced circuit design of the linear regulator has been specifically optimized for very fast start- up and shutdown timing. This proprietary LDO has also been tailored for superior transient response characteristics. These traits are particularly impor- tant for applications that require fast power supply timing. The high-speed turn-on capability is enabled through implementation of a fast-start control cir-

400mA Step-Down Converter and 300mA LDO 2500M.2007.06.1.0 11 cuit, which accelerates the power-up behavior of fundamental control and feedback circuits within the LDO regulator. Fast turn-off time response is achieved by an active output pull-down circuit, which is enabled when the LDO regulator is placed in shutdown mode. This active fast shut- down circuit has no adverse effect on normal device operation. The LDO regulator output has been specifically optimized to function with low- cost, low-ESR ceramic capacitors; however, the design will allow for operation over a wide range of capacitor types. The regulator comes with complete short-circuit and thermal protection. The combination of these two internal protection circuits gives a comprehen- sive safety system to guard against extreme adverse operating conditions. The regulator features an enable/disable function. This pin (EN_LDO) is active high and is compatible with CMOS logic. To assure the LDO regulator will switch on, the EN_LDO turn-on control level must be greater than 1.5V. The LDO regulator will go into the disable shutdown mode when the voltage on the EN_LDO pin falls below 0.6V. If the enable function is not needed in a specific application, it may be tied to V IN_LDO to keep the LDO regulator in a continuously on state. The IN_LDO input powers the internal reference, oscillator, and bias control blocks. For this reason, the IN_LDO input must be connected to the input power source to provide power to both the LDO and step-down converter functions. When the regulator is in shutdown mode, an internal 1.5kΩresistor is connected between OUT and GND. This is intended to discharge C OUT when the LDO regulator is disabled. The internal 1.5K Ω resistor has no adverse impact on device turn-on time. Step-Down Converter The AAT2500M buck is a constant frequency peak current mode PWM converter with internal com- pensation. It is designed to operate with an input voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V. The output voltage ranges from 0.6V to the input voltage. The 0.6V fixed model shown in Figure 1 is also the adjustable version and is externally programmable with a resistive divider, as shown in Figure 2. The converter MOSFET power stage is sized for 400mA load capability with up to 92% efficiency. Light load efficiency is close to 80% at a 500µA load. Figure 1: AAT2500M Fixed Output.

400mA Step-Down Converter and 300mA LDO 12 2500M.2007.06.1.0 Soft Start The AAT2500M soft-start control prevents output voltage overshoot and limits inrush current when either the input power or the enable input is applied. When pulled low, the enable input forces the converter into a low-power, non-switching state with a bias current of less than 1µA. Low Dropout Operation For conditions where the input voltage drops to the output voltage level, the converter duty cycle increases to 100%. As 100% duty cycle is approached, the minimum off-time initially forces the high side on-time to exceed the 1.8MHz clock cycle and reduce the effective switching frequency. Once the input drops below the level where the out- put can be regulated, the high side P-channel MOSFET is turned on continuously for 100% duty cycle. At 100% duty cycle, the output voltage tracks the input voltage minus the IR drop of the high side P-channel MOSFET R DS(ON). Low Supply The under-voltage lockout (UVLO) guarantees suf- ficient V IN bias and proper operation of all internal circuitry prior to activation. Fault Protection For overload conditions, the peak inductor current is limited. Thermal protection disables switching when the internal dissipation or ambient temperature becomes excessive. The junction over-temperature threshold is 150°C with 15°C of hysteresis. Applications Information LDO Regulator Input and Output Capacitors: An input capacitor is not required for basic operation of the linear reg- ulator. However, if the AAT2500M is physically located at a reasonable distance from an input power source, an input capacitor (C3) will be need- ed for stable operation. Typically, a 1µF or larger capacitor is recommended for C3 in most applica- tions. C3 should be located as closely to the input voltage (IN_LDO) pin as practically possible. An input capacitor greater than 1µF will offer supe- rior input line transient response and maximize power supply ripple rejection. Ceramic, tantalum, or aluminum electrolytic capacitors may be select- ed for C3. There is no specific capacitor ESR requirement for C3. However, for 300mA LDO reg- ulator output operation, ceramic capacitors are rec- ommended for C3 due to their inherent capability over tantalum capacitors to withstand input current surges from low impedance sources such as bat- teries in portable devices. For proper load voltage regulation and operational stability, a capacitor is required between the OUT_LDO and AGND pins. The output capacitor (C4) connection to the LDO regulator ground pin should be made as directly as practically possible for maximum device performance. Since the regu- lator has been designed to function with very low ESR capacitors, ceramic capacitors in the 1.0µF to 10µF range are recommended for best perform- ance. Applications utilizing the exceptionally low output noise and optimum power supply ripple rejection should use 2.2µF or greater for C4. In low output current applications, where output load is less than 10mA, the minimum value for C4 can be as low as 0.47µF.

400mA Step-Down Converter and 300mA LDO 2500M.2007.06.1.0 13 Equivalent Series Resistance: ESR is a very important characteristic to consider when selecting a capacitor. ESR is the internal series resistance asso- ciated with a capacitor that includes lead resistance, internal connections, size and area, material compo- sition, and ambient temperature. Typically, capacitor ESR is measured in milliohms for ceramic capacitors and can range to more than several ohms for tanta- lum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors. Step-Down Converter Inductor Selection: The step-down converter uses peak current mode control with slope com- pensation to maintain stability for duty cycles greater than 50%. The output inductor value must be selected so the inductor current down slope meets the internal slope compensation require- ments. The internal slope compensation for the adjustable and low-voltage fixed versions of the AAT2500M is 0.24A/µsec. This equates to a slope compensation that is 35% of the inductor current down slope for a 1.5V output and 2.2µH inductor. This is the internal slope compensation for the adjustable (V O = 0.6V) version or low output volt- age fixed versions. When externally programming the 0.6V version to 2.5V, the calculated inductance is 3.75µH. In this case, a standard 4.7µH value is selected. For high output voltage fixed versions (2.5V and above), m = 0.48A/µsec. Table 1 displays inductor values for the AAT2500M fixed and adjustable options. Manufacturer's specifications list both the inductor DC current rating, which is a thermal limitation, and the peak current rating, which is determined by the saturation characteristics. The inductor should not show any appreciable saturation under normal load conditions. Some inductors may meet the peak and average current ratings yet result in excessive loss- es due to a high DCR. Always consider the losses associated with the DCR and its effect on the total converter efficiency when selecting an inductor. The 2.2µH CDRH3D16 series inductor selected from Sumida has a 59mΩDCR and a 1.3A DC cur- rent rating. At full load, the inductor DC loss is 9.4mW which gives a 1.5% loss in efficiency for a 400mA, 1.5V output. m 0.35 ⋅ VO 0.24A µsec A µsec A A µsec 0.35 ⋅ VO m = = = 0.24 L 0.35 ⋅ 1.5V 2.2µH A µsec Table 1: Inductor Values.

400mA Step-Down Converter and 300mA LDO 14 2500M.2007.06.1.0 Input Capacitor Select a 4.7µF to 10µF X7R or X5R ceramic capac- itor for the input. To estimate the required input capacitor size, determine the acceptable input rip- ple level (V PP) and solve for C2. The calculated value varies with input voltage and is a maximum when V IN_BUCK is double the output voltage (VO). Always examine the ceramic capacitor DC voltage coefficient characteristics when selecting the prop- er value. For example, the capacitance of a 10µF, 6.3V, X5R ceramic capacitor with 5.0V DC applied is actually about 6µF. The maximum input capacitor RMS current is: The input capacitor RMS ripple current varies with the input and output voltage and will always be less than or equal to half of the total DC load (output) current. for V IN = 2 · VO The term appears in both the input volt- age ripple and input capacitor RMS current equa- tions and is a maximum when V IN_BUCK is twice VOUT_BUCK. This is why the input voltage ripple and the input capacitor RMS current ripple are a maxi- mum at 50% duty cycle. The input capacitor provides a low impedance loop for the edges of pulsed current drawn by the AAT2500M. Low ESR/ESL X7R and X5R ceramic capacitors are ideal for this function. To minimize stray inductance, the capacitor should be placed as closely as possible to the IC. This keeps the high frequency content of the input current localized, minimizing EMI and input voltage ripple. The proper placement of the input capacitor (C2) can be seen in the evaluation board layout in Figure 3. A laboratory test set-up typically consists of two long wires running from the bench power supply to the evaluation board input voltage pins. The induc- tance of these wires, along with the low-ESR ceramic input capacitor, can create a high Q net- work that may affect converter performance. This problem often becomes apparent in the form of excessive ringing in the output voltage during load transients. Errors in the loop phase and gain meas- urements can also result. Since the inductance of a short PCB trace feeding the input voltage is significantly lower than the power leads from the bench power supply, most applications do not exhibit this problem.

400mA Step-Down Converter and 300mA LDO 2500M.2007.06.1.0 15 In applications where the input power source lead inductance cannot be reduced to a level that does not affect the converter performance, a high ESR tantalum or aluminum electrolytic should be placed in parallel with the low ESR, ESL bypass ceramic capacitor. This dampens the high Q network and stabilizes the system. Output Capacitor The step-down converter output capacitor limits the output ripple and provides holdup during large load transitions. A 4.7µF to 10µF X5R or X7R ceramic capacitor typically provides sufficient bulk capaci- tance to stabilize the output during large load tran- sitions and has the ESR and ESL characteristics necessary for low output ripple. The output voltage droop due to a load transient is dominated by the capacitance of the ceramic out- put capacitor. During a step increase in load cur- rent, the ceramic output capacitor alone supplies the load current until the loop responds. Within two or three switching cycles, the loop responds and the inductor current increases to match the load current demand. The relationship of the output volt- age droop during the three switching cycles to the output capacitance can be estimated by: Once the average inductor current increases to the DC load level, the output voltage recovers. The above equation establishes a limit on the minimum value for the output capacitor with respect to load transients. The internal voltage loop compensation also limits the minimum output capacitor value to 4.7µF. This is due to its effect on the loop crossover frequency (bandwidth), phase margin, and gain margin. Increased output capacitance will reduce the crossover frequency with greater phase margin. The maximum output capacitor RMS ripple current is given by: Dissipation due to the RMS current in the ceramic output capacitor ESR is typically minimal, resulting in less than a few degrees rise in hot-spot temperature. Adjustable Output Voltage Resistor Selection For applications requiring an adjustable output volt- age (VO or VOUT), the 0.6V version can be externally programmed. Resistors R1 and R2 of Figure 5 pro- gram the output to regulate at a voltage higher than 0.6V. To limit the bias current required for the exter- nal feedback resistor string while maintaining good noise immunity, the minimum suggested value for R2 VOUT · (VIN(MAX) - VOUT) RMS(MAX)I L · FOSC · VIN(MAX) COUT = 3 · ∆ILOAD VDROOP · FOSC Figure 3: AAT2500M Evaluation Board Top Side.

400mA Step-Down Converter and 300mA LDO 16 2500M.2007.06.1.0 is 59kΩ. Although a larger value will further reduce quiescent current, it will also increase the impedance of the feedback node, making it more sensitive to external noise and interference. Table 2 summarizes the resistor values for various output voltages with R2 set to either 59k Ω for good noise immunity or 221kΩfor reduced no load input current. The adjustable version of the AAT2500M, com- bined with an external feedforward capacitor (C8 in Figures 2 and 5), delivers enhanced transient response for extreme pulsed load applications. The addition of the feedforward capacitor typically requires a larger output capacitor C1 for stability. Table 2: Adjustable Resistor Values For Use With 0.6V Step-Down Converter.

400mA Step-Down Converter and 300mA LDO 2500M.2007.06.1.0 17 Thermal Calculations There are three types of losses associated with the AAT2500M step-down converter: switching losses, conduction losses, and quiescent current losses. Conduction losses are associated with the R DS(ON) characteristics of the power output switching devices. Switching losses are dominated by the gate charge of the power output switching devices. At full load, assuming continuous conduction mode (CCM), a simplified form of the step-down convert- er and LDO losses is given by: I QBUCK is the step-down converter quiescent cur- rent and I QLDO is the LDO quiescent current. The term tsw is used to estimate the full load step-down converter switching losses. For the condition where the buck converter is in dropout at 100% duty cycle, the total device dissi- pation reduces to: Since R DS(ON), quiescent current, and switching losses all vary with input voltage, the total losses should be investigated over the complete input voltage range. Given the total losses, the maximum junction tem- perature can be derived from the θ JA for the TSOPJW-12 package which is 110°C/W. PCB Layout The following guidelines should be used to ensure a proper layout. 1. The input capacitor C2 should connect as closely as possible to IN_BUCK and PGND, as shown in Figure 5. 2. The output capacitor and inductor should be connected as closely as possible. The connec- tion of the inductor to the LX pin should also be as short as possible. 3. The feedback trace should be separate from any power trace and connect as closely as possible to the load point. Sensing along a high-current load trace will degrade DC load regulation. If external feedback resistors are used, they should be placed as closely as pos- sible to the FB_BUCK pin. This prevents noise from being coupled into the high impedance feedback node. 4. The resistance of the trace from the load return to GND should be kept to a minimum. This will help to minimize any error in DC regulation due to differences in the potential of the internal sig- nal ground and the power ground.
