Cool-Power® ZVS Switching Regulators Rev 1.5 Page 29 of 41 03/2018 PI352x-00 Functional Description The PI352x-00 is a family of highly integrated ZVS Buck regulators. The PI352x-00 has an output voltage that can be set within a prescribed range shown in Table 1. Performance and maximum output current are characterized with a specific external power inductor (see Table 3). For basic operation, Figure 88 shows the connections and components required. No additional design or settings are required. ENABLE (EN) EN is the enable pin of the converter. The EN Pin is referenced to SGND and permits the user to turn the regulator on or off. The EN default polarity is a positive logic assertion. If the EN pin is left floating or asserted high, the converter output is enabled. Pulling EN pin below VEN_LO with respect to SGND will disable the regulator output. Remote Sensing If remote sensing is required, the PI352x-00 product family is equipped with a general purpose op-amp. This amplifier can allow full differential remote sense by configuring it as a differential follower and connecting the VDIFF pin to the EAIN pin. Soft Start The PI352x-00 includes an internal soft-start capacitor to control the rate of rise of the output voltage. See the Electrical Characteristics Section for the default value. Connecting an external capacitor from the TRK pin to SGND will increase the start-up ramp period. See, “Soft Start Adjustment and Track,” in the Applications Description section for more details. Output Voltage Selection The PI352x-00 output voltage is set with REA1 and REA2 as shown in Figure 88. Table 1 defines the allowable operational voltage ranges for the PI352x-00 family. Refer to the Output Voltage Set Point Application Description for details. Output Current Limit Protection The PI352x-00 has a current limit protection, which prevents the output from sourcing current higher than the regulator’s maximum rated current. If the output current exceeds the Current Limit (IOUT_CL) for 1024µs, a slow current limit fault is initiated and the regulator is shutdown which eliminates output current flow. After Fault Restart Delay (tFR_DLY ), a soft-start cycle is initiated. This restart cycle will be repeated indefinitely until the excessive load is removed. The PI352x-00 also has short circuit protection which can immediately stop switching to protect against catastrophic failure of an external component such as a saturated inductor. If short circuit protection is triggered the PI352x-00 will complete the current cycle and stop switching. The module will attempt to soft start after Fault Restart Delay (tFR_DLY ). Input Undervoltage Lockout If VIN falls below the input Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) threshold, but remains high enough to power the internal bias supply, the PI352x-00 will complete the current cycle and stop switching. The system will soft start once the input voltage is reestablished and after the Fault Restart Delay.

Cool-Power® ZVS Switching Regulators Rev 1.5 Page 30 of 41 03/2018 PI352x-00 Input Overvoltage Lockout If VIN exceeds the input Overvoltage Lockout (OVLO) threshold (VOVLO), while the controller is running, the PI352x-00 will complete the current cycle and stop switching. If VIN remains above OVLO for at least tFR_DLY, then the input voltage is considered reestablished once VIN goes below VOVLO-VOVLO_HYS . If VIN goes below OVLO before tFR_DLY elapses, then the input voltage is considered reestablished once VIN goes below VOVLO. The system will soft start once the input voltage is reestablished and after the Fault Restart Delay. Output Overvoltage Protection The PI352x-00 family is equipped with output Overvoltage Protection (OVP) to prevent damage to input voltage sensitive devices. If the output voltage exceeds VOVP-REL or VOVP-ABS , the regulator will complete the current cycle and stop switching. The system will resume operation once the output voltage falls below the OVP threshold and after Fault Restart Delay. Overtemperature Protection The PI352x features an over temperature protection (OTP), which will not engage until after the product is operated above the maximum rated temperature. The OTP circuit is only designed to protect against catastrophic failure due to excessive temperatures and should not be relied upon to ensure the device stays within the recommended operating temperature range. Thermal shutdown terminates switching and discharges the soft-start capacitor. The PI352x will restart after the excessive temperature has decreased by 30ºC Pulse Skip Mode (PSM) PI352x-00 features a Pulse Skip Mode (PSM) to achieve high efficiency at light loads. The regulators are setup to skip pulses if EAO falls below a PSM threshold (PSMSKIP). Depending on conditions and component values, this may result in single pulses or several consecutive pulses followed by skipped pulses. Skipping cycles significantly reduces gate drive power and improves light load efficiency. The regulator will leave PSM once the EAO rises above the Pulse Skip Mode threshold. Variable Frequency Operation Each PI352x-00 is preprogrammed to a base operating frequency, with respect to the power stage inductor (see Table 2), to operate at peak efficiency across line and load variations. At low line and high load applications, the base frequency will decrease to accommodate these extreme operating ranges. By stretching the frequency, the ZVS operation is preserved throughout the total input line voltage range therefore maintaining optimum efficiency. Thermal Characteristics Figure 89(a) and 83(c) thermal impedance models that can predict the maximum temperature of the hottest component for a given operating condition. This model assumes that all customer PCB connections are at one temperature, which is PCB equivalent Temperature TPCB °C. The SiP model can be simplified as shown in Figure 89(b). which assumes all PCB nodes are at the same temperature.

Cool-Power® ZVS Switching Regulators Rev 1.5 Page 35 of 41 03/2018 PI352x-00 Inductor Pairing The PI352x-00 utilizes an external inductor. This inductor has been optimized for maximum efficiency performance. Table 3 details the specific inductor value and part number utilized for each PI352x-00. The same inductor model may have different effective thermal impedances, depending on the model ZVS Buck paired with it. The thermal impedances are used in a virtual model of the inductor to estimate the maximum temperature, and the location of the maximum temperature may vary depending on the ZVS Buck model that the inductor is used with. This is because the effective thermal impedances are not only based on the geometry and materials used in the inductor, but include how the inductor power dissipation is distributed among core losses, DC copper losses, and AC copper losses. This distribution is dependent on the ZVS buck model that uses the inductor. Parallel Operation Multiple PI352x-00 can be connected in parallel to increase the output capability of a single output rail. When connecting modules in parallel, each EAO, TRK, and EN pin should be connected together. EAIN pins should remain separated, each with an REA1 and REA2, to reject noise differences between different modules' SGND pins. Current sharing will occur automatically in this manner so long as each inductor is the same value. Refer to the Electrical Characteristics table for maximum array size and array rated output current. Current sharing may be considered independent of synchronization and/or interleaving. Modules do not have to be interleaved or synchronized to share current. Due to the high output current capability of a single module and Critical Conduction Mode (CrCM) occurring at approximately 50% rated load, interleaving is not supported. Use of the PI352x-00 SYNCI pin is practical only under a limited set of conditions. Synchronizing to another converter or to a fixed external clock source can result in a significant reduction in output power capability or higher than expected ripple. Filter Considerations The PI352x-00 requires low impedance ceramic input capacitors (X7R/X5R or equivalent) to ensure proper start up and high frequency decoupling for the power stage. The PI352x-00 will draw nearly all of the high frequency current from the low impedance ceramic capacitors when the main high side MOSFET(s) are conducting. During the time the MOSFET(s) are off, the input capacitors are replenished from the source. Table 6 shows the recommended input and output capacitors to be used for the PI352x-00 as well as per capacitor RMS ripple current and the input and output ripple voltages. Table 5 lists the recommended input and output ceramic capacitors manufacturer and part numbers. It is very important to verify that the voltage supply source as well as the interconnecting lines are stable and do not oscillate. Input Filter Case 1 — Inductive source and local, external, input decoupling capacitance with negligible ESR (i.e., ceramic type): The voltage source impedance can be modeled as a series Rline Lline circuit. The high performance ceramic decoupling capacitors will not significantly damp the network because of their low ESR; therefore in order to guarantee stability the following conditions must be verified: Where rEQ_IN can be calculated by dividing the lowest line voltage by the full load input current. It is critical that the line source impedance be at least an octave lower than the converter’s dynamic input resistance, Equation 6. However, Rline cannot be made arbitrarily low otherwise Equation 5 is violated and the system will show instability, due to an under-damped RLC input network.

Cool-Power® ZVS Switching Regulators Rev 1.5 Page 36 of 41 03/2018 PI352x-00 Input Filter case 2 — Inductive source and local, external input decoupling capacitance with significant R CIN_EXT ESR (i.e., electrolytic type): In order to simplify the analysis in this case, the voltage source impedance can be modeled as a simple inductor L line. Notice that the high performance ceramic capacitors CIN_INT within the PI352x-00 should be included in the external electrolytic capacitance value for this purpose. The stability criteria will be: Equation 8 shows that if the aggregate ESR is too small – for example by using very high quality input capacitors (CIN_EXT ) – the system will be under-damped and may even become destabilized. As noted, an octave of design margin in satisfying Equation 7 should be considered the minimum. When applying an electrolytic capacitor for input filter damping the ESR value must be chosen to avoid loss of converter efficiency and excessive power dissipation in the electrolytic capacitor. VDR Bias Regulator The VDR internal bias regulator is a ZVS switching regulator that resides internal to the PI352x-00 SiP. It is intended primarily to power the internal controller and driver circuitry. The power capability of this regulator is sized for the PI352x-00, with adequate reserve for the application it was intended for. It may be used for as a pullup source for open collector applications and for other very low power uses with the following restrictions: 1. The total external loading on VDR must be less than I VDR. 2. No direct connection is allowed. Any noise source that can disturb the VDR voltage can also affect the internal controller operation. A series impedance is required between the VDR pin and any external circuitry. 3. All loads must be locally de-coupled using a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. This capacitor must be connected to the VDR output through a series resistor no smaller than 1kΩ, which forms a low-pass filter. Additional System Design Considerations 1. Inductive loads: As with all power electronic applications, consideration must be given to driving inductive loads that may be exposed to a fault in the system which could result in consequences beyond the scope of the power supply primary protection mechanisms. An inductive load could be a filter, fan motor or even excessively long cables. Consider an instantaneous short circuit through an un-damped inductance that occurs when the output capacitors are already at an initial condition of fully charged. The only thing that limits the current is the inductance of the short circuit and any series resistance. Even if the power supply is off at the time of the short circuit, the current could ramp up in the external inductor and store considerable energy. The release of this energy will result in considerable ringing, with the possibility of ringing nodes connected to the output voltage below ground. The system designer should plan for this by considering the use of other external circuit protection such as load switches, fuses, and transient voltage protectors. The inductive filters should be critically damped to avoid excessive ringing or damaging voltages. Adding a high current Schottky diode from the output voltage to PGND close to the PI352x-00 is recommended for these applications. 2. Low voltage operation: There is no isolation from an SELV (Safety-Extra-Low-Voltage) power system. Powering low voltage loads from input voltages as high as 60V may require additional consideration to protect low voltage circuits from excessive voltage in the event of a short circuit from input to output. A fast TVS (transient voltage suppressor) gating an external load switch is an example of such protection.
