The device utilizes Active -Semi’s proprietary ISOBCD30 process for operation with input voltage up to 30V. Consuming only 6 μA in shutdown mode, the ACT4070 is highly efficient with peak efficiency at 95% when in operation. Protection features include cycle -by-cycle current limit, thermal shutdown, and frequency fold back at short circuit. The device also includes an internal soft start function to prevent overshoot. The ACT4070 is available in SOP -8/EP exposed pad package and requires very few external devices for operation.

Copyright © 2006 Active-Semi, Inc. www.active-semi.com - 4 - ACT4070 FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION As seen in the Functional Block Diagram , the ACT4070 is a current mode pulse width modulation (PWM) converter. The converter operates as fol- lows: A switching cycle starts when the rising edge of the Oscillator clock output causes the High -Side Power Switch to turn on and the Low -Side Power Switch to turn off. With the SW side of the inductor now con- nected to IN, the inductor current ramps up to store energy in the its magnetic field. The inductor current level is measured by the Current Sense Amplifier and added to the Oscillator ramp signal. If the result- ing summation is higher than the COMP voltage, the output of the PWM Comparator goes high. When this happens or when Oscillator clock output goes low, the High -Side Power Switch turns off and the Low-Side Power Switch turns on. At this point, the SW side of the inductor swings to a diode voltage below ground, causing the inductor current to de- crease and magnetic energy to be transferred to output. This state continues until the cycle starts again. The High-Side Power Switch is driven by logic using BS bootstrap pin as the positive rail. This pin is charged to V SW + 6 V w h e n t h e L o w-Side Power Switch turns on. The COMP voltage is the integration of the error between FB input and the internal 1.222V refer- ence. If FB is lower than the reference voltage, COMP tends to go higher to increase current to the output. Current limit happens when COMP reaches its maximum clamp value of 2.65V. The Oscillator normally switches at 400kHz. How- ever, if FB voltage is less than 0.7V, then the switching frequency decreases until it reaches a typical value of 40kHz at VFB = 0V. Shutdown Control The ACT4070 has an enable input EN for turning the IC on or off. When EN is less than 0.7V, the IC is in 6μA low current shutdown mode and output is discharged through the Low -Side Power Switch. When EN is higher than 1.3V, the IC is in normal operation mode. EN is internally pulled up with a 2μA current source and can be left unconnected for always-on operation. Thermal Shutdown The ACT4070 automatically turns off when its junc- tion temperature exceeds 160°C and then restarts once the temperature falls to 150°C.

C4 can be either a ceramic capacito r (Panasonic ECJ-3YB1C226M) or SP-CAP (Specialty Polymer) Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor such as Panasonic EEFCD0J470XR. The SP-Cap is based on aluminum electrolytic capacitor technology, but uses a solid polymer electrolyte and has very stable capa ci- tance characteristics in both operating temperature and frequency compared to ceramic, polymer, and low ESR tantalum capacitors.
