DESCRIPTION

The MPQ8632 is a fully integrated high frequency synchronous rectified step-down switch mode converter. It offers a very compact solution to achieve 4A/6A/8A/10A/12A/15A/20A output current over a wide input supply range with excellent load and line regulation. The MPQ8632 uses Constant-On-Time (COT) control mode to provide fast transient response and ease loop stabilization. An external resistor programs the o perating frequency from 200kHz to 1MHz and the frequency keeps nearly constant as input supply varies with the feedforward compensation. The default u nder voltage lockout threshold is internally set at 4.1V, but a resistor network on the enable pin can increase this threshold. The soft start pin controls the output voltage startup ramp. An open drain power good signal indicates that the output is within nominal voltage range. It has f ully integrated protection features that include over-current protection , over-voltage protection and thermal shutdown. The MPQ8632 require s a minim al number of readily available standard external components and is available in a 16-Pin QFN 3mm×4mm or a 29-Pin QFN 5mm×4mm package.

All Rights Reserved. reasonable that the jitter in skip mode is larger To achieve less jitter during ultra light load condition, reduce R1 and R2, but that will decrease the light load efficiency. Configuring the EN Control The regulator turns on when En goes high; conversely it turns off when EN goes low. Do not float the pin. For automatic start-up, pull the EN pin up to input voltage through a resistive voltage divider. Choose the values of the pull -up resistor ( RUP from the IN pin to the EN pin) and the pull -down resistor (RDOWN from the EN pin to GND) to determine the automatic start-up voltage: UP DOWN IN START DOWN (R R )V 1.5 (V) R  (11) For example, for R UP=100kΩ and R DOWN=51kΩ, the VIN-START is set at 4.44V. To reduce noise, a dd a 10nF ceramic c apacitor from EN to GND. An internal zener diode on the EN pin clamps the EN pin voltage to prevent run away. The maximum pull up current assuming the worst case 6V for the internal zener clamp should be less than 1mA. Therefore, when driving EN with an external logic signal, use an EN voltage less than 6V . W hen connecting EN to IN through a pull-up resistor or a resistive voltage divider, select a resistance that ensures a maximum pull-up current less than 1mA. If using a resistive voltage divider and V IN exceeds 6V, then the minimum resistance for the pull-up resistor RUP should meet: IN UP DOWN V 6V 6V 1mARR   (12) With only RUP (the pull -down resistor , RDOWN, is not connected), the n the VCC UVLO threshold determines VIN-START, so the minimum resistor value is: IN UP V 6VR ( ) 1mA  (13) A typical pull-up resistor is 100kΩ. External VCC bias An external 5V VCC bias can disable the internal LDO, in this case, Vin can be as low as 2.5V. Soft Start The MPQ8632 employs a soft start (SS) mechanism to ensure a smooth output during power-up. Whe n the EN pin goes high, an internal current source ( 20μA) charges the SS capacitor. The SS capacitor voltage takes over the REF voltage to the PWM comparator. The output voltage smoothly ramps up with the SS voltage. Once the SS voltage reaches the REF voltage, it continues ramping up while VREF takes over the PWM comparator. At this point, soft start finishes and the device enters steady state operation. Determine the SS capacitor value as follows:    SS SS SS REF T ms I AC nF VV (14) If the output capacitors are large, then avoid setting a short SS time or risk hitting the current limit during SS. Use a minimum value of 4.7nF if the output capacitance value exceeds 330μF. Pre-Bias Startup The MPQ8632 has been designed for monotonic startup into pre-biased loads. If the output is pre - biased to a certain voltage during startup, the IC will disable switching for both high-side and low- side switches until the voltage on the soft -start capacitor exceeds the sensed output voltage at the FB pin. Power Good (PG) The MPQ8632 has a power-good (PG) output. The PG pin is the open drain of a MOSFET. Connect it to VCC or some other voltage source that measures less than 5.5V through a pull-up resistor (typically 100kΩ). After applying the input voltage, the MOSFET turns on so that the PG pin is pulled to GND before the SS is ready. After the FB voltage reaches 9 1% of the REF voltage, the PG pin is pulled high after a 2.5ms delay.

Unauthorized Photocopy and Duplication Prohibited. © 2013 MPS. All Rights Reserved. When the FB voltage drops to 80% of the REF voltage or exceeds 12 0% of the nominal REF voltage, the PG pin is pulled low. If the input supply fails to power the MPQ8632, the PG pin is also pulled low even though this pin is tied to an external DC source through a pull-up resistor (typically 100kΩ). Over-Current Protection (OCP) The MPQ8632 features three current limit levels for over-current conditions: high-side peak current limit, low-side valley current limit and low- side negative current limit. However, the OCP operation mechanism of MPQ8632GL-10 is different from other parts in this family. For MPQ8632GLE-10: High-Side Peak Current Limit: The part has a cycle-by-cycle over-current limiting function. The device monitors the inductor current during the HS-FET ON state. W hen the sensed inductor current hits the peak current limit, the output over-current comparator goes high, the device enters OCP mode immediately and turns off the HS-FET and turns on the LS-FET. Low-Side Valley Current Limit : The device also monitors the inductor current dur ing the LS-FET ON state. When ILIM=1 and at the end of the OFF time, the LS -FET sourcing current is compared to the internal positive -valley–current limit. If the valley current limit is less than the LS- FET sourcing current, the HS -FET remains OFF and the LS-FET remains ON for the next ON time. When the LS-FET sourcing current drops below the valley current limit , the HS -FET turn s on again. For other parts except MPQ8632GLE-10: These parts enter OCP mode if only the LS-FET sourcing valley current exceeds the valley current limit. Once the OCP is triggered, the LS -FET keeps ON state until the LS-FET sourcing valley current is less than the valley current limit . A nd then the LS-FET turns off, the HS-FET turns on for a fixed time determined by frequency-set resistor RFREQ and input voltage. During OCP, the device tries to recover from the over-current fault with hiccup mode : the chip disables the output power stage, discharges the soft-start capacitor and then automatically retries soft-start. If the over-current condition still holds after soft -start ends, the device repeats this operation cycle until the over-current conditions disappear and then output rises back to regulation level. OCP offers non-latch protection. Low-Side Negative Current Limit: If the sensed LS-FET negative current exceeds the negative current limit, the LS -FET turn s off immediately and stays OFF for the remainder of the OFF period. In this situation, both MOSFETs are OFF until the end of a fixed interval. The HS-FET body diode conducts the inductor current for the fixed time. Over -Voltage Protection (OVP) The MPQ8632 monitors the output voltage using the FB pin connected to the tap of a resistor divider to detect over-voltage. MPQ8632 and MPQ8632H provide non-latch and latch off OVP mode as showed in Table 1. Table 1—OVP Mode OVP Mode Non-Latch Mode Latch-Off Mode Part # MPQ8632-4 MPQ8632-6 MPQ8632-8 MPQ8632H-10 MPQ8632-12 MPQ8632-15 MPQ8632-20 MPQ8632-10 For MPQ8632GLE-10: If the FB voltage exceeds the nominal REF voltage but remains lower than 120% of the REF voltage (0.611V), both MOSFETs are off. If t he FB voltage exceeds 120% of the REF voltage but remains below 130%, the LS -FET turns on while the HS -FET remains off. The LS- FET remains on until the FB voltage drops below 110% of the REF voltage or the low -side negative current limit is hit. If the FB voltage exceeds 130% of the REF voltage, then the device is latched off. Need cycle the input power supply or EN to restart.

Setting the Output Voltage -Large ESR Capacitors For applications that electrolytic capacitor or POS capacitor with a large ESR is set as output capacitors. The feedback resistors —R1 and R2 as shown in Figure 10—set the output voltage. ESR POSCAP SW VOUTL FB Figure10—Simplified POSCAP Circuit First, choose a value for R2 that balances between high quiescent current loss (low R2) and high noise sensitivity on FB (high R2) . A typical value falls within 5kΩ to 50kΩ, using a comparatively larger R2 w hen VOUT is low, and a smaller R2 when VOUT is high. Then calculate R1 as follows, which considers the output ripple: OUT OUT REF REF 1V V V 2R1 R2 V    (15) Where OUTV is the output ripple determined by equation 24.

Calculate VRAMP as shown in equation 7. Select R2 to balance between high quiescent current loss and FB noise sensitivity. Choose R2 within 5kΩ to 50kΩ, using a larger R2 when VOUT is low, and a smaller R2 wh en VOUT is high.

VFB(AVG) varies with the V IN, V OUT, and load condition, where the load regulation is strictly related to the VFB(AVG). Also the line regulation is related to the VFB(AVG); improving the load or line regulation involves a lower VRAMP that meets equation 9. For PWM operation, estimate VFB(AVG) from equation 17. 9R2R//1R 2R//1RV2 1VV RAM PREF)AVG(FB (17) Usually, R9 is 0Ω, though it can also be set following equation 18 for better noise immunity. It should also be less than 20% of R1//R2 to minimize its influence on VRAMP.

To simplify the R1 calculation in equation 1 6, add a DC - blocking capacitor, CDC, to filter the DC influence from R4 and R9. Figure 12 shows a simplified circuit with external ramp compensation and a DC-blocking capacitor. The a ddition of this capacitor, simplifies the R1 calculation as per equation 19 for PWM mode operation.

To use a larger CDC for better FB noise immunity, reduce R1 and R2 to limit effects on system start-up. Note that even with Cdc, the load and line regulation are still related to VRAMP. Ceramic SW FB VOUTL CDC R4 C4 Figure12—Simplified Ceramic Capacitor Circuit with DC Blocking Capacitor Input Capacitor The input current to the step -down converter is discontinuous, and t herefore, requires a capacitor to supply the AC current to the step - down converter while maintaining the DC input voltage. Use c eramic cap acitors for best performance. During layout, Place the input capacitors as close to the IN pin as possible. The capacitance can vary significantly with temperature. Use c apacitors with X5R and X7R ceramic dielectrics because they are fairly stable over a wide temperature range.

The capacitance also dominates the output voltage ripple. For simplification, estimate the output voltage ripple as: V1( CLF8 VV IN OUT OUT SW OUT OUT   (25) The ESR only contributes minimally to the output voltage ripple, thus requiring an external ramp to stabilize the system. Design t he external ramp with R4 and C4 as per equation 5, 8 and 9.

The ESR ramp voltage is high enough to stab ilize the system. thus eliminating the need for an external ramp. Select a minimum ESR value around 12mΩ to ensure stable operation.

A larger value inductor result s in less ripple current and lower output ripple voltage, but is l arger physical size, has a higher series resistance, and/or lower saturation current. Generally, select an inductor value that allows the inductor peak-to-peak ripple current to 30 % to 40% of the maximum switch current limit. Also, design for a peak inductor current that is below the maximum switch current limit. Calculate the inductance value as: V1(IF VL IN OUT LSW (27) Where ΔI L is the peak -to-peak inductor ripple current. Choose an inductor that will not saturate under the maximum inductor peak current.
