Source and Shink 1.5A/2A Fast Transient Response Line Regulator EC2960 Function Description Power­On­Reset A Power-On-Reset (POR) circuit monitors both input voltages at VCNTL and VIN pins to prevent wrong logic ontrols. The POR function initiates a soft-start process fter both of the supply voltages exceed their rising POR oltage thresholds during powering on. Output Voltage Regulation The output voltage on VOUT pin is regulated to track the eference voltage applied on VREF pin. Two internal Nchannel ower MOSFETs controlled by high bandwidth ror amplifiers regulate the output voltage by sourcing urrent from VIN pin or sinking current to GND pin. An nternal output voltage sense pad is bonded to the VOUT in with a bonding wire for perfect load regulation.For preventing the two power MOSFETs from shootthrough, small voltage offset between the positive inputs f the two error amplifiers is designed. It results in igher output voltage while the regulator sinks light or eavy load current. The EC2960/EC2960A provides very fast load transient response t small output capacitance to save total cost. Current­Limit The EC2960/EC2960A monitors the output current, both sourcing nd sinking current, and limits the maximum output current o prevent damages during current overload or shortcircuit shorted from VOUT to GND or VIN) conditions. Enable during continuous thermal overload conditions,increasing lifetime of the EC2960/EC2960A. The VREF pin is a multi-function input pin which is the reference voltage input pin and the enable control input pin. Applying and holding the voltage (VREF) on VREF be- low 0.3V (typical) shuts down the output of the regulator. In the typical application, an NPN transistor or N-channel MOSFET is used to pull down the VREF while applying a “high” signal to turn on the transistor. When shutdown function is active, both of the internal power MOSFETs are turned off and the impedance of the VOUT pin is larger than 10MΩ. Internal and External Soft­ Start The EC2960/EC2960A is designed with an internal soft-start function to control the rise rate of the output voltage to prevent inrush current during start-up. When release the pull-low transistor connected with VREF pin, the current via the resistor divider charges the external soft-start capacitor (C4) and the VREF starts to rise up.The IC starts a soft-start process when the VREF reaches the enable voltage threshold. The output voltage is regulated to follow the lower voltage, which is either the internal soft-start voltage ramp or the VREF voltage, to rise up. The external soft-start interval is programmable by the resistor-divider and the soft-start capacitor (C4). Thermal Shutdown The thermal shutdown circuit limits the junction temperature of the EC2960/EC2960A. When the junction temperature exceeds 150℃, a thermal sensor turns off the both pass transistors, allowing the device to cool down. The thermal sensor allows the regulator to regulate again after the junction temperature cools by 40℃, resulting in a pulsed output during continuous thermal overload conditions. The thermal limit is designed with a 40℃ hysteresis to lower the average TJ

Application Information

The input sequence of powers applied for VIN and VCNTL is not necessary to be concerned. Reference Voltage A reference voltage is applied at the VREF pin by a resistor divider between VIN and GND pins. An external bypass capacitor is also connected to VREF. The capacitor and the resistor divider form a low-pass filter to reduce the inherent reference noise from VIN. The capacitor is a 0.1uF or greater ceramic capacitor and connected as close to VREF as possible. More capacitance and large resistor divider will increase the soft-start interval. Do not place any additional loading on this reference input pin. Input Capacitor The EC2960/EC2960A requires proper input capacitors to supply current surge during stepping load transients to prevent the input rail from dropping. Because the parasitic inductors from the voltage sources or other bulk capacitors to the VIN pin limit the slew rate of the input current, more parasitic inductance needs more input capacitance. For the EC2960, the total capacitance of input capacitors value including MLCC and aluminum electrolytic capacitors should be larger than 10uF. For VCNTL pin, a capacitor of 0.47uF (MLCC) or above is recommended for noise decoupling. Output Capacitor The EC2960/EC2960A needs a proper output capacitor to maintain circuit stability and improve transient response. In order to insure the circuit stability, a 10uF X5R or X7R MLCC output capacitor is sufficient at all operating temperatures and it must be placed near the VOUT. The maximum distance from output capacitor to VOUT must within 10mm. Total output capacitors value including MLCC and aluminum electrolytic capacitors should be larger than 10uF Table 1 provides the suitable output capacitors for EC2960 Operation Region and Power Dissipation The EC2960/EC2960A maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance and temperature difference between the die junction and ambient air. The power dissipation PD across the device is: Where (TJ-TA) is the temperature difference between the junction and ambient air. θJA is the thermal resistance between junction and ambient air. Assuming the TA=25℃ and maximum TJ=150℃ (typical thermal limit threshold), the maximum power dissipation is calculated as:
