APE1501 1.5MHz, 600mA Synchronous Step-Down Converter GENERAL DESCRIPTION The APE1501 is a high efficiency monolithic synchronous buck regulator using a 1.5MHz constant frequency, current mode architecture. The device is available in an adjustable version. Supply current with no load is 300µA and drops to <1µA in shutdown. The 2.5V to 5.5V input voltage range makes the APE1501 ideally suited for single Li-Ion battery-powered applications. 100% duty cycle provides low dropout operation, Switching frequency is internally set at 1.5MHz, allowing the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors. The internal synchronous switch increases efficiency and eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode. Low output voltages are easily supported with the 0.6V feedback reference voltage. The APE1501 can supply 600mA of load current at VCC=3V. The APE1501 is available in a low profile 5-pin, SOT package.

It utilizes internal MOSFETs to achieve high efficiency and can generate very low output voltage by using internal reference at 0.6V. It operates at a fixed switching frequency, and uses the slope compensated current mode architecture. This Step-Down DC-DC Converter supplies 600mA output current at VCC = 3V with input voltage range from 2.5V to 5.5V. Current Mode PWM Control Slope compensated current mode PWM control provides stable switching and cycle-by-cycle current limit for excellent load and line responses and protection of the internal main switch (P-CH MOSFET) and synchronous rectifier (N-CH MOSFET). During normal operation, the internal P-CH MOSFET is turned on for a certain time to ramp the inductor current at each rising edge of the internal oscillator, and switched off when the peak inductor current is above the error voltage. The current comparator, ICOMP, limits the peak inductor current. When the main switch is off, the synchronous rectifier will be turned on immediately and stay on until either the inductor current starts to reverse, as indicated by the current reversal comparator, IZERO, or the beginning of the next clock cycle. The OVDET comparator controls output transient overshoots by turning the main switch off and keeping it off until the fault is no longer present.

Function Descriptions Idle Mode Operation At very light loads, the APE1501 automatically enters Idle Mode. In the Idle Mode, the inductor current may reach zero or reverse on each pulse. The PWM control loop will automatically skip pulses to maintain output regulation. The bottom MOSFET is turned off by the current reversal comparator, IZERO and the switch voltage will ring. This is discontinuous mode operation, and is normal behavior for the switching regulator. When the input voltage decreases toward the value of the output voltage, the APE1501 allows the main switch to remain on for more than one switching cycle and increases the duty cycle until it reaches 100%. The output voltage then is the input voltage minus the voltage drop across the main switch and the inductor. At low input supply voltage, the RDS(ON) of the P-CH MOSFET increases, and the efficiency of the converter decreases. Caution must be exercised to ensure the heat dissipated not to exceed the maximum junction temperature of the IC. Maximum Load Current The APE1501 will operate with input supply voltage as low as 2.5V, however, the maximum load current decreases at lower input due to large IR drop on the main switch and synchronous rectifier. The slope compensation signal reduces the peak inductor current as a function of the duty cycle to prevent sub-harmonic oscillations at duty cycles greater than 50%. Conversely the current limit increases as the duty cycle decreases. Advanced Power Electronics Corp. 1.5MHz, 600mA Synchronous Step-Down Converter
Application Information Setting the Output Voltage version. The external resistor sets the output voltage according to the following equation: 6.0 R R V V OUT Table 1 Resistor select for output voltage setting VOUT 1.2V 300K 300K 1.5V 300K 450K 1.8V 300K 600K 2.5V 300K 950K Inductor Selection For most designs, the APE1501 operates with inductors of 1µH to 4.7µH. Low inductance values are physically smaller but require faster switching, which results in some efficiency loss. The inductor value can be derived from the following equation: f I V V V V L OSC L IN OUT IN OUT Where is inductor Ripple Current. Large value inductors lower ripple current and small value inductors result in high ripple currents. Choose inductor ripple current approximately 35% of the maximum load current 600mA, ∆IL=210mA. Table 2 Inductor select for output voltage setting (VCC=3.6V) VOUT 1.2V 1.5V 1.8V 2.5V Inductor 2.7uH 2.7uH 2.7uH 2.2uH Part Number WE-TPC 7440430027 7440430027 7440430027 7440430022 Note: Part type MH or M (www.we-online.com) For output voltages above 2.0V, when light-load efficiency is important, the minimum recommended inductor is 2.2µH. For optimum voltage-positioning load transients, choose an inductor with DC series resistance in the 50mΩ to 150mΩ range. For higher efficiency at heavy loads (above 200mA), or minimal load regulation (but some transient overshoot), the resistance should be kept below 100mΩ. The DC current rating of the inductor should be at least equal to the maximum load current plus half the ripple current to prevent core saturation (600mA+105mA).

The input capacitor reduces the surge current drawn from the input and switching noise from the device. The input capacitor impedance at the switching frequency shall be less than input source impedance to prevent high frequency switching current passing to the input. A low ESR input capacitor sized for maximum RMS current must be used. Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics are highly recommended because of their low ESR and small temperature coefficients. A 4.7µF ceramic capacitor for most applications is sufficient. Output Capacitor Selection The output capacitor is required to keep the output voltage ripple small and to ensure regulation loop stability. The output capacitor must have low impedance at the switching frequency. Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics are recommended due to their low ESR and high ripple current. Compensation Capacitor Selection The compensation capacitors for increasing phase margin provide additional stability. It is required and more than 22p, Refer to Demo Board Schematic, The optimum values for C4 is 47pF. Layout Guidance When laying out the PC board, the following suggestions should be taken to ensure proper operation of the APE1501. These items are also illustrated graphically in below. 1. The power traces, including the GND trace, the SW trace and the VCC trace should be kept short, direct and wide to allow large current flow. Put enough multiply-layer pads when they need to change the trace layer. 2. Connect the input capacitor C1&C2 to the VCC pin as closely as possible to get good power filter effect. 3. Keep the switching node, SW, away from the sensitive FB node. 4. Do not trace signal line under inductor.
