Application Information

Output Voltage Programming and Loop Compensation The EN23F0QI uses a Type IV Voltage Mode compensation network. Type IV Voltage Mode control is a proprietary Enpirion control scheme that maximizes control loop bandwidth to deliver excellent load transient responses and maintain output regulation with pin point accuracy. For ease of use, most of this network has been customized and is integrated within the device package. The EN23F0QI output voltage is programmed using a simple resistor divider network (R A and R B). The feedback voltage at VFB is nominally 0.6V. R A is predetermined based on Table 5 and R B can be calculated based on Figure 10. The values recommended for C OUT, CA, RCA and R EA make up the external compensation of the EN23F0QI. It will vary with each PVIN and VOUT combination to optimize on performance. The EN23F0QI solution can be optimized for either smallest size or highest performance. Please see Table 5 for a list of recommended R A, CA, RCA, REA and COUT values for each solution. Figure 10: VOUT Resistor Divider & Compensation Components. See Table 5 for details. Input Capacitor Selection The EN23F0QI requires three 22µF/1206 input capacitor. Low-cost, low-ESR ceramic capacitors should be used as input capacitors for this converter. The dielectric must be X5R or X7R rated. Y5V or equivalent dielectric formulations must not be used as these lose too much capacitance with frequency, temperature and bias voltage. In some applications, lower value capacitors are needed in parallel with the larger, capacitors in order to provide high frequency decoupling. Table 3 contains a list of recommended input capacitors.

For smallest solution size, various combinations of output capacitance may be used. See Table 5 for details. Low ESR ceramic capacitors are required with X5R or X7R rated dielectric formulation. Y5V or equivalent dielectric formulations must not be used as these lose too much capacitance with frequency, temperature and bias voltage. Table 4 contains a list of recommended output capacitors. Output ripple voltage is determined by the aggregate output capacitor impedance. Capacitor impedance, denoted as Z, is comprised of capacitive reactance, effective series resistance, ESR, and effective series inductance, ESL reactance. Placing output capacitors in parallel reduces the impedance and will hence result in lower ripple voltage. nTotal ZZZZ 1...111 +++= Recommended Output Capacitors Description MFG P/N 47µF, 6.3V, X5R, 20%, 1206 Murata GRM31CR60J476ME19L 47µF, 10V, X5R, 20%, 1206 Taiyo Yuden LMK316BJ476ML-T 22µF, 10V, X5R, 20%, 0805 Panasonic ECJ-2FB1A226M 22µF, 10V, X5R, 20%, 0805 Taiyo Yuden LMK212BJ226MG-T 100µF, 6.3V, X5R, 20%, 1206 Murata GRM31CR60J107ME39L Taiyo Yuden JMK316BJ107ML-T Table 4: Recommended Output Capacitors

©Enpirion 2012 all rights reserved, E&OE Enpirion Confidential www.enpirion.com, Page 21 Thermal Considerations Thermal considerations are important power supply design facts that cannot be avoided in the real world. Whenever there are power losses in a system, the heat that is generated by the power dissipation needs to be accounted for. The Enpirion PowerSoC helps alleviate some of those concerns. The Enpirion EN23F0QI DC-DC converter is packaged in an 8x11x3mm 68-pin QFN package. The QFN package is constructed with copper lead frames that have exposed thermal pads. The exposed thermal pad on the package should be soldered directly on to a copper ground pad on the printed circuit board (PCB) to act as a heat sink. The recommended maximum junction temperature for continuous operation is 125°C. Continuous operation above 125°C may reduce long-term reliability. The device has a thermal overload protection circuit designed to turn off the device at an approximate junction temperature value of 150°C. The EN23F0QI is guaranteed to support the full 4A output current up to 85°C ambient temperature. The following example and calculations illustrate the thermal performance of the EN23F0QI. Example: V IN = 12V VOUT = 1.2V IOUT = 15A First calculate the output power. P OUT = 1.2V x 15A = 18W Next, determine the input power based on the efficiency (η) shown in Figure 11. Figure 11: Efficiency vs. Output Current For VIN = 12V, VOUT = 1.2V at 15A, η ≈ 80% η = POUT / PIN = 80% = 0.8 PIN = POUT / η PIN ≈ 18W / 0.8 ≈ 22.5W The power dissipation (P D) is the power loss in the system and can be calculated by subtracting the output power from the input power. P D = PIN – POUT ≈ 22.5W – 18W ≈ 4.5W With the power dissipation known, the temperature rise in the device may be estimated based on the theta JA value ( θ JA). The θJA parameter estimates how much the temperature will rise in the device for every watt of power dissipation. The EN23F0QI has a θ JA value of 13 ºC/W without airflow. Determine the change in temperature ( ΔT) based on PD and θJA. ΔT = PD x θJA The junction temperature (T J) of the device is approximately the ambient temperature (T A) plus the change in temperature. We assume the initial ambient temperature to be 25°C. T J = TA + ΔT The maximum operating junction temperature (TJMAX) of the device is 125°C, so the device can operate at a higher ambient temperature. The maximum ambient temperature (T AMAX) allowed can be calculated. TAMAX = TJMAX – PD x θJA The maximum ambient temperature the device can reach is 66°C given the input and output conditions. Note that the efficiency will be slightly lower at higher temperatures and this calculation is an estimate. 100 0123456789 1 0 1 1 1 2 1 3 1 4 1 5 EFFICIENCY (%) OUTPUT CURRENT (A) Efficiency vs. Output Current VOUT = 3.3V VOUT = 1.8V VOUT = 1.2V CONDITIONS VIN = 12.0V AVIN = 3.3V Dual Supply

©Enpirion 2012 all rights reserved, E&OE Enpirion Confidential www.enpirion.com, Page 24 Design Considerations for Lead-Frame Based Modules Exposed Metal on Bottom of Package Lead-frames offer many advantages in thermal performance, in reduced electrical lead resistance, and in overall foot print. However, they do require some special considerations. In the assembly process lead frame construction requires that, for mechanical support, some of the lead-frame cantilevers be exposed at the point where wire-bond or internal passives are attached. This results in several small pads being exposed on the bottom of the package, as shown in Figure 14. Only the thermal pad and the perimeter pads are to be mec hanically or electrically connected to the PC board. The PCB top layer under the EN23F0QI should be clear of any metal (copper pours, traces, or vias) except for the thermal pad. The “shaded-out” area in Figure 14 represents the area that should be clear of any metal on the top layer of the PCB. Any layer 1 metal under the shaded-out area runs the risk of undesirable shorted connections even if it is covered by soldermask. The solder stencil aperture should be smaller than the PC B ground pad. This will prevent excess solder from causing bridging between adjacent pins or other exposed metal under the package. Please consult the Enpirion Manufacturing Application Note for more details and recommendations. Figure 14: Lead-Frame exposed metal (Bottom View) Shaded area highlights exposed metal that is not to be mechanically or electrically connected to the PCB.
