High Efficiency 1.5MHz, Step up Regulator EC9211 Function Description Main Control Loop The EC9211 is a constant frequency and current-mode switching regulator. In normal operation, the internal N channel power MOSFET is turned on each cycle when the oscillator sets an internal RS latch, and then turned off when an internal comparator (ICMP) resets the latch. The peak inductor current at which ICMP resets the RS latch is controlled by the voltage on the COMP node which is the output of the error amplifier (EAMP). An external resistive divider connected between VOUT and ground allows the EAMP to receive an output feedback voltage VFB at FB pin. When the load current increases, it causes a slightly to decrease in VFB associated with the 1.23V reference, which in turn, it causes the COMP voltage to increase until the average inductor current matches the new load current. VIN Under-Voltage Lockout (UVLO) The Under-Voltage Lockout (UVLO) circuit compares the input voltage at VIN with the UVLO threshold to ensure the input voltage is high enough for reliable operation. The 100mV (typ) hysteresis prevents supply transients from causing a restart. Once the input voltage exceeds the UVLO rising threshold, startup begins. When the input voltage falls below the UVLO falling threshold, the controller turns off the converter. Soft-Start The EC9211 has a built-in soft-start to control the output voltage rise during start-up. During soft-start, an internal ramp voltage, connected to the one of the positive inputs of the error amplifier, raises up to replace the reference voltage (1.23V typical) until the ramp voltage reaches the reference voltage. Current-Limit Protection The EC9211 monitors the inductor current, flows through the N-channel MOSFET, and limits the current peak at current-limit level to prevent loads and the EC9211 from damaging during overload or short-circuit conditions. Over-Temperature Protection (OTP) The over-temperature circuit limits the junction temperature of the EC9211. When the junction temperature exceeds 150℃, a thermal sensor turns off the power MOSFET allowing the devices to cool. The thermal sensor allows the converters to start a soft-start process and regulates the output voltage again after the junction temperature cools by 40℃. The OTP is designed with a 40℃ hysteresis to lower the average Junction Temperature (TJ) during continuous thermal overload conditions increasing the lifetime of the device. Enable/Shutdown Driving EN to the ground places the EC9211 in shutdown mode. When in shutdown, the internal power MOSFET turns off, all internal circuitry shuts down, and the quiescent supply current reduces to 1μA maximum.

Application Information

The input capacitor (CIN) reduces the ripple of the input current drawn from the input supply and reduces noise injection into the IC. The reflected ripple voltage will be smaller when an input capacitor with larger capacitance is used. For reliable operation, it is recommended to select the capacitor with maximum voltage rating at least 1.2 times of the maximum input voltage. The capacitors should be placed close to the VIN and the GND. Inductor Selection Selecting an inductor with low dc resistance reduces conduction losses and achieves high efficiency. The efficiency is moderated whilst using small chip inductor which operates with higher inductor core losses. Therefore, it is necessary to take further consideration while choosing an adequate inductor. Mainly, the inductor value determines the inductor ripple current: larger inductor value results in smaller inductor ripple current and lower conduction losses of the converter. However, larger inductor value generates slower load transient response. A reasonable design rule is to set the ripple current, ΔIL, to be 30% to 50% of the maximum average inductor current,IL(AVG). The inductor value can be obtained as below, where VIN = input voltage VOUT = output voltage FSW = switching frequency in MHz IOUT = maximum output current in amp. η = Efficiency ΔIL /IL(AVG) = inductor ripple current/average current (0.3 to 0.5 typical) To avoid the saturation of the inductor, the inductor should be rated at least for the maximum input current of the converter plus the inductor ripple current. The maximum input current is calculated as below: The peak inductor current is calculated as the following equation: Output Capacitor Selection The current-mode control scheme of the EC9211 allows the usage of tiny ceramic capacitors. The higher capacitor value provides good load transients response. Ceramic capacitors with low ESR values have the lowest output voltage ripple and are recommended. If required, tantalum capacitors may be used as well. The output ripple is the sum of the voltages across the ESR and the ideal output capacitor.

For ceramic capacitor application, the output voltage ripple is dominated by the ΔVCOUT. When choosing the input and output ceramic capacitors, the X5R or X7R with their good temperature and voltage characteristics are recommended. Output Voltage Setting The output voltage is set by a resistive divider. The external resistive divider is connected to the output which allows remote voltage sensing as shown in “Typical Application Circuits”. A suggestion of the maximum value of R1 is 2MΩ and R2 is 200kΩ for keeping the minimum current that provides enough noise rejection ability through the resistor divider. The output voltage can be calculated as below: Diode Selection To achieve the high efficiency, a Schottky diode must be used. The current rating of the diode must meet the peak current rating of the converter. Layout Consideration For all switching power supplies, the layout is an important step in the design especially at high peak currents and switching frequencies. If the layout is not carefully done, the regulator might show noise problems and duty cycle jitter. 1. The input capacitor should be placed close to the VIN and the GND without any via holes for good input voltage filtering. 2. To minimize copper trace connections that can inject noise into the system, the inductor should be placed as close as possible to the LX pin to minimize the noise coupling into other circuits. 3. Since the feedback pin and network is a high impedance circuit the feedback network should be routed away from the inductor. The feedback pin and feedback network should be shielded with a ground plane or trace to minimize noise coupling into this circuit. 4. A star ground connection or ground plane minimizes ground shifts and noise is recommended.
