Application Information

The RT8223L/M is a dual, Mach ResponseTM DRVTM dual ramp valley mode synchronous buck controller. The controller is designed for low voltage power supplies for notebook computers. Richtek's Mach Response TM technology is specifically designed for providing 100ns “instant-on” response to load steps while maintaining a relatively constant operating frequency and inductor operating point over a wide range of input voltages. The topology circumvents the poor load-transient timing problems of fixed-frequency current mode PWMs while avoiding the problems caused by widely varying switching frequencies in conventional constant on-time and constant off-time PWM schemes. The DRV TM mode PWM modulator is specifically designed to have better noise immunity for such a dual output application. The RT8223L/M includes 5V (VREG5) and 3.3V (VREG3) linear regulators. VREG5 linear regulator can step down the battery voltage to supply both internal circuitry and gate drivers. The synchronous-switch gate drivers are directly powered from VREG5. When VOUT1 voltage is above 4.75V, an automatic circuit will switch the power of the device from VREG5 linear regulator to VOUT1. PWM Operation The Mach Response TM DRVTM mode controller relies on the output filter capacitor's effective series resistance (ESR) to act as a current sense resistor, so the output ripple voltage provides the PWM ramp signal. Refer to the RT8223L/M's function block diagram, the synchronous high side MOSFET will be turned on at the beginning of each cycle. After the internal one-shot timer expires, the MOSFET will be turned off. The pulse width of this one shot is determined by the converter's input voltage and the output voltage to keep the frequency fairly constant over the input voltage range. Another one shot sets a minimum off-time (300ns typ.). The on-time one shot will be triggered if the error comparator is high, the low side switch current is below the current limit threshold, and the minimum off-time one shot has timed out. PWM Frequency and On-Time Control The Mach Response TM control architecture runs with pseudo constant frequency by feed-forwarding the input /ON OUT INt= K ( V V )× where “K”is set by the TONSEL pin connection (Table 1). The on-time guaranteed in the Electrical Characteristics table is influenced by switching delays in the external high side power MOSFET. Two external factors that influence switching frequency accuracy are resistive drops in the two conduction loops (including inductor and PC board resistance) and the dead time effect. These effects are the largest contributors to the change in frequency with changing load current. The dead-time effect increases the effective on-time by reducing the switching frequency . It occurs only in PWM mode (SKIPSEL= REF) when the inductor current reverses at light or negative load currents. With reversed inductor current, the inductor EMF causes PHASEx to go high earlier than normal, thus extending the on-time by a period equal to the low-to- high dead time. For loads above the critical conduction point, the actual switching frequency is : OUT DROP1 ON IN DROP1 DROP2f = (V V ) (t (V V V ))+× + − where VDROP1 is the sum of the parasitic voltage drops in the inductor discharge path,which includes the synchronous rectifier, inductor, and PC board resistances. V DROP2 is the sum of the resistances in the charging path, and tON is the on-time. and output voltage into the on-time one-shot timer. The high side switch on-time is inversely proportional to the input voltage as measured by V IN, and proportional to the output voltage. There are two benefits of a constant switching frequency. First, the frequency can be selected to avoid noise-sensitive regions such as the 455kHz IF band. Second, the inductor ripple current operating point remains relatively constant, resulting in easy design methodology and predictable output voltage ripple. Frequency for the 3V SMPS is set at 1.25 times higher than the frequency for 5V SMPS. This is done to prevent audio-frequency “Beating” between the two sides, which switch asynchronously for each side. The frequencies are set by the TONSEL pin connection as shown in Table 1. The on-time is given by :
