Technical content

The LT1110 is a versatile micropower DC-DC converter. The device requires only three external components to deliver a fixed output of 5V or 12V. The very low minimum supply voltage of 1.0V allows the use of the LT1110 in applications where the primary power source is a single cell. An on-chip auxiliary gain block can function as a low battery detector or linear post regulator. The 70kHz oscillator allows the use of surface mount inductors and capacitors in many applications. Quiescent current is just 300µA, making the device ideal in remote or battery powered applications where current consumption must be kept to a minimum. The device can easily be configured as a step-up or step-down converter, although for most step-down applications or input sources greater than 3V, the LT1111 is recommended. Switch current limiting is user-adjustable by adding a single external resistor. Unique reverse battery protection circuitry limits reverse current to safe, non- destructive levels at reverse supply voltages up to 1.6V.

-LT1110 UOPER OATILT1110 The LT1110 is a gated oscillator switcher. This type architecture has very low supply current because the switch is cycled only when the feedback pin voltage drops below the reference voltage. Circuit operation can best be understood by referring to the LT1110 block diagram above. Comparator A1 compares the FB pin voltage with the 220mV reference signal. When FB drops below 220mV , A1 switches on the 70kHz oscillator. The driver amplifier boosts the signal level to drive the output NPN power switch Q1. An adaptive base drive circuit senses switch current and provides just enough base drive to ensure switch saturation without overdriving the switch, resulting in higher efficiency. The switch cycling action raises the output voltage and FB pin voltage. When the FB voltage is sufficient to trip A1, the oscillator is gated off. A small amount of hysteresis built into A1 ensures loop stability without external frequency compensation. When the comparator is low the oscillator and all high current circuitry is turned off, lowering device quiescent current to just 300µA for the reference, A1 and A2. The oscillator is set internally for 10µs ON time and 5µs OFF time, optimizing the device for step-up circuits where V OUT ≈ 3VIN, e.g., 1.5V to 5V. Other step-up ratios as well as step-down (buck) converters are possible at slight losses in maximum achievable power output. A2 is a versatile gain block that can serve as a low battery detector, a linear post regulator, or drive an under voltage lockout circuit. The negative input of A2 is internally connected to the 220mV reference. An external resistor divider from V IN to GND provides the trip point for A2. The AO output can sink 300µA (use a 47k resistor pull up to +5V). This line can signal a microcontroller that the battery voltage has dropped below the preset level. To prevent the gain block from operating in its linear region, a 2M Ω resistor can be connected from AO to SET. This provides positive feedback. A resistor connected between the ILIM pin and VIN adjusts maximum switch current. When the switch current ex- ceeds the set value, the switch is turned off. This feature is especially useful when small inductance values are used with high input voltages. If the internal current limit of 1.5A is desired, I LIM should be tied directly to VIN. Propagation delay through the current limit circuitry is about 700ns. In step-up mode, SW2 is connected to ground and SW1 drives the inductor. In step-down mode, SW1 is con- nected to VIN and SW2 drives the inductor. Output voltage is set by the following equation in either step-up or step- down modes where R1 is connected from FB to GND and R2 is connected from V OUT to FB. The LT1110-5 and LT1110-12 fixed output voltage ver- sions have the gain setting resistors on-chip. Only three external components are required to construct a 5V or 12V output converter. 16 µA flows through R1 and R2 in the LT1110-5, and 39µA flows in the LT1110-12. This current represents a load and the converter must cycle from time to time to maintain the proper output voltage. Output ripple, inherently present in gated oscillator designs, will typically run around 90mV for the LT1110-5 and 200mV for the LT1110-12 with the proper inductor/capacitor selection. This output ripple can be reduced considerably by using the gain block amp as a pre-amplifier in front of the FB pin. See the Applications section for details.

Inductor Selection — General A DC-DC converter operates by storing energy as mag- netic flux in an inductor core, and then switching this energy into the load. Since it is flux, not charge, that is stored, the output voltage can be higher, lower, or oppo- site in polarity to the input voltage by choosing an appro- priate switching topology. To operate as an efficient en- ergy transfer element, the inductor must fulfill three re- quirements. First, the inductance must be low enough for the inductor to store adequate energy under the worst case condition of minimum input voltage and switch ON time. The inductance must also be high enough so maxi- mum current ratings of the LT1110 and inductor are not exceeded at the other worst case condition of maximum input voltage and ON time. Additionally, the inductor core must be able to store the required flux; i.e., it must not saturate. At power levels generally encountered with LT1110 based designs, small surface mount ferrite core units with saturation current ratings in the 300mA to 1A range and DCR less than 0.4Ω (depending on application) are adequate. Lastly, the inductor must have sufficiently low DC resistance so excessive power is not lost as heat in the windings. An additional consideration is Electro- Magnetic Interference (EMI). Toroid and pot core type inductors are recommended in applications where EMI must be kept to a minimum; for example, where there are sensitive analog circuitry or transducers nearby. Rod core types are a less expensive choice where EMI is not a problem. Minimum and maximum input voltage, output voltage and output current must be established before an inductor can be selected. Inductor Selection — Step-Up Converter In a step-up, or boost converter (Figure 4), power gener- ated by the inductor makes up the difference between input and output. Power required from the inductor is determined by PV V V IL OUT D IN MIN OUT=+() ( ) ±( ) 01 where VD is the diode drop (0.5V for a 1N5818 Schottky). USA OPPLICATI WU UI FOR ATIO Energy required by the inductor per cycle must be equal or greater than P f L OSC ()02 in order for the converter to regulate the output. When the switch is closed, current in the inductor builds according to It V R eL IN Rt L() © ±( ) 10 3 where R' is the sum of the switch equivalent resistance (0.8Ω typical at 25 °C) and the inductor DC resistance. When the drop across the switch is small compared to VIN, the simple lossless equation It V L tL IN() = ()04 can be used. These equations assume that at t = 0, inductor current is zero. This situation is called “discon- tinuous mode operation” in switching regulator parlance. Setting “t” to the switch ON time from the LT1110 speci- fication table (typically 10µs) will yield I PEAK for a specific “L” and VIN. Once IPEAK is known, energy in the inductor at the end of the switch ON time can be calculated as EL IL PEAK= 1 2 052 () EL must be greater than PL/fOSC for the converter to deliver the required power. For best efficiency I PEAK should be kept to 1A or less. Higher switch currents will cause excessive drop across the switch resulting in reduced efficiency. In general, switch current should be held to as low a value as possible in order to keep switch, diode and inductor losses at a minimum. As an example, suppose 12V at 120mA is to be generated from a 4.5V to 8V input. Recalling equation (01), P V V V mA mWL =+() ( ) =12 0 5 4 5 120 960 06.± . .

( ) Since 17.5µJ > 13.7µJ, the 47µH inductor will work. This trial-and-error approach can be used to select the opti- mum inductor. Keep in mind the switch current maximum rating of 1.5A. If the calculated peak current exceeds this, an external power transistor can be used. A resistor can be added in series with the I LIM pin to invoke switch current limit. The resistor should be picked such that the calculated IPEAK at minimum VIN is equal to the Maximum Switch Current (from Typical Performance Characteristic curves). Then, as V IN increases, switch current is held constant, resulting in increasing efficiency. Inductor Selection — Step-Down Converter The step-down case (Figure 5) differs from the step-up in that the inductor current flows through the load during both the charge and discharge periods of the inductor. Current through the switch should be limited to ~800mA in this mode. Higher current can be obtained by using an external switch (see Figure 6). The I LIM pin is the key to successful operation over varying inputs. After establishing output voltage, output current and input voltage range, peak switch current can be calculated by the formula I I DC VV VV VPEAK OUT OUT D IN SW D = + 2 10± () where DC = duty cycle (0.69) VSW = switch drop in step-down mode VD = diode drop (0.5V for a 1N5818) IOUT = output current VOUT = output voltage VIN = minimum input voltage VSW is actually a function of switch current which is in turn a function of VIN, L, time and VOUT. To simplify, 1.5V can be used for VSW as a very conservative value. Once IPEAK is known, inductor value can be derived from L VV V I tIN MIN SW OUT PEAK ON=• ±± ()11 where tON = switch ON time (10µs). Next, the current limit resistor R LIM is selected to give IPEAK from the RLIM Step-Down Mode curve. The addition of this resistor keeps maximum switch current constant as the input voltage is increased. As an example, suppose 5V at 250mA is to be generated from a 9V to 18V input. Recalling Equation (10), I mA mAPEAK = () +  = 2 250 06 9 50 5 91 50 5 498 12. ±. . .( ) Next, inductor value is calculated using Equation (11) L mA sH=• =91 55 Use the next lowest standard value (47µH). Then pick R LIM from the curve. For I PEAK = 500mA, RLIM = 82Ω . Inductor Selection — Positive-to-Negative Converter Figure 7 shows hookup for positive-to-negative conver- sion. All of the output power must come from the inductor. In this case, PV V IL OUT D OUT=+() ( )|| . ( ) 14 In this mode the switch is arranged in common collector or step-down mode.
