page 7 of 14 rev. 0.5 march 2012 www.aosmd.com aoz1284 detailed description the aoz1284 is a current-mode step down regulator with integrated high side nmos switch. it operates from a 3v to 36v input voltage range and supplies up to 4a of load current. features include enable control, power-on reset, input under voltage lockout, external soft-start and thermal shut down. the aoz1284 is available in epad so-8 package. enable and soft start the aoz1284 has external soft start feature to limit in- rush current and ensure the output voltage ramps up smoothly to regulation voltage. a soft start process begins when the input voltage rises to 3v and voltage on en pin is high. in soft start process, a 2.5a internal current source charges the external capacitor at ss. as the ss capacitor is charged, the voltage at ss rises. the ss voltage clamps the reference voltage of the error amplifier, therefore output voltage rising time follows the ss pin voltage. with the slow ramping up output voltage, the inrush current can be prevented. minimum external soft-start capacitor 850pf is required, and the corresponding soft-start time is about 200s. the en pin of the aoz1284 is active high. connect the en pin to a voltage between 1.2v to 5v if enable function is not used. pull it to ground will disable the aoz1284. do not leave it open. the voltage on en pin must be above 1.2v to enable the aoz1284. when voltage on en pin falls below 0.4v, the aoz1284 is disabled. if an application circuit requires the aoz1284 to be disabled, an open drain or open collector circuit should be used to interface to en pin. steady-state operation under steady-state conditions, the converter operates in fixed frequency and continuous-conduction mode (ccm). the aoz1284 integrates an internal n-mosfet as the high-side switch. inductor current is sensed by amplifying the voltage drop across the drain to source of the high side power mosfet. since the n- mosfet requires a gate voltage higher than the input voltage, a boost capacitor connected between lx pin and bst pin drives the gate. the boost capacitor is charged while lx is low. an internal 10 ? switch from lx to gnd is used to insure that lx is pulled to gnd even in the light load. output voltage is divided down by the external voltage divider at the fb pin. the difference of the fb pin voltage and reference is amplified by the internal transconductance error amplifier. the error voltage, which shows on the comp pin, is compared against the current signal, which is sum of inductor current signal and ramp compensation signal, at pwm comparator input. if the current signal is less than the error voltage, the internal high-side switch is on. the inductor current flows from the input through the inductor to the output. when the current signal exceeds the error voltage, the high-side switch is off. the inductor current is freewheeling through the schottky diode to output. switching frequency the aoz1284 switching frequency can be programmed by external resistor. external resistor value can be calculated by following formula. ? ? ? ? k khz f k rf o 5 ) ( 50000 ) ( some standard values of rf for most commonly used switching frequency are listed in table 1. f o (hz) rf (k ? ) 200k 270 500k 100 1m 46.6 table 1 output voltage programming output voltage can be set by feeding back the output to the fb pin with a resistor divider network. in the application circuit shown in figure 1 (typical application). the resistor divider network includes r 2 and r 3 . usually, a design is started by picking a fixed r 3 value and calculating the required r 2 with equation below. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 2 1 1 8 . 0 r r v o some standard value of r 1 , r 2 for most commonly used output voltage values are listed below in table 2. v o (v) r1 (k ? ) r2 (k ? ) 0.8 1.0 open 1.2 4.99 10 1.5 10 11.5 1.8 12.7 10.2 2.5 21.5 10 3.3 31.6 10 5.0 52.3 10 table 2

page 9 of 14 rev. 0.5 march 2012 www.aosmd.com aoz1284 for reliable operation and best performance, the input capacitors must have current rating higher than i cin- rms at worst operating conditions. ceramic capacitors are preferred for input capacitors because of their low esr and high ripple current rating. depending on the application circuits, other low esr tantalum capacitor or aluminum electrolytic capacitor may also be used. when selecting ceramic capacitors, x5r or x7r type dielectric ceramic capacitors are preferred for their better temperature and voltage characteristics. note that the ripple current rating from capacitor manufactures is based on certain amount of life time. further de-rating may be necessary for practical design requirement. inductor the inductor is used to supply constant current to output when it is driven by a switching voltage. for given input and output voltage, inductance and switching frequency together decide the inductor ripple current, which is: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? in o o l v v l f v i 1 the peak inductor current is: 2 l o lpeak i i i ? ? ? high inductance gives low inductor ripple current but requires larger size inductor to avoid saturation. low ripple current reduces inductor core losses. it also reduces rms current through inductor and switches, which results in less conduction loss. when selecting the inductor, make sure it is able to handle the peak current without saturation even at the highest operating temperature. the inductor takes the highest current in a buck circuit. the conduction loss on inductor needs to be checked for thermal and efficiency requirements. surface mount inductors in different shape and styles are available from wurth, sumida, coilcraft, and murata. shielded inductors are small and radiate less emi noise. but they cost more than unshielded inductors. the choice depends on emi requirement, price and size. output capacitor the output capacitor is selected based on the dc output voltage rating, output ripple voltage specification and ripple current rating. the selected output capacitor must have a higher rated voltage specification than the maximum desired output voltage including ripple. de-rating needs to be considered for long term reliability. output ripple voltage specification is another important factor for selecting the output capacitor. in a buck converter circuit, output ripple voltage is determined by inductor value, switching frequency, output capacitor value and esr. it can be calculated by the equation below: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? o co l o c f esr i v 8 1 where; c o is output capacitor value and esr co is the equivalent series resistor of output capacitor. when low esr ceramic capacitor is used as output capacitor, the impedance of the capacitor at the switching frequency dominates. output ripple is mainly caused by capacitor value and inductor ripple current. the output ripple voltage calculation can be simplified to: o l o c f i v ? ? ? ? ? ? 8 1 if the impedance of esr at switching frequency dominates, the output ripple voltage is mainly decided by capacitor esr and inductor ripple current. the output ripple voltage calculation can be further simplified to: co l o esr i v ? ? ? ? for lower output ripple voltage across the entire operating temperature range, x5r or x7r dielectric type of ceramic, or other low esr tantalum capacitor or aluminum electrolytic capacitor may also be used as output capacitors. in a buck converter, output capacitor current is continuous. the rms current of output capacitor is decided by the peak to peak inductor ripple current. it can be calculated by: 12 _ l rms co i i ? ? usually, the ripple current rating of the output capacitor is a smaller issue because of the low current stress. when the buck inductor is selected to be very small and inductor ripple current is high, output capacitor could be overstressed.
page 10 of 14 rev. 0.5 march 2012 www.aosmd.com aoz1284 schottky diode selection the external freewheeling diode supplies the current to the inductor when the high side nmos switch is off. to reduce the losses due to the forward voltage drop and recovery of diode, schottky diode is recommended to use. the maximum reverse voltage rating of the chosen schottky diode should be greater than the maximum input voltage, and the current rating should be greater than the maximum load current. low input operation when v in is lower than 4.5v, such as 3.0v, an external 5v is required to add into the bst pin for proper operation. loop compensation the aoz1284 employs peak current mode control for easy use and fast transient response. peak current mode control eliminates the double pole effect of the output l&c filter. it greatly simplifies the compensation loop design. with peak current mode control, the buck power stage can be simplified to be a one-pole and one-zero system in frequency domain. the pole is dominant pole and can be calculated by: l o p r c f ? ? ? ? 2 1 1 the zero is a esr zero due to output capacitor and its esr. it is can be calculated by: co o z esr c f ? ? ? ? 2 1 1 where; c o is the output filter capacitor; r l is load resistor value and esr co is the equivalent series resistance of output capacitor. the compensation design is actually to shape the converter close loop transfer function to get desired gain and phase. several different types of compensation network can be used for aoz1284. for most cases, a series capacitor and resistor network connected to the comp pin sets the pole-zero and is adequate for a stable high-bandwidth control loop. in the aoz1284, fb pin and comp pin are the inverting input and the output of internal transconductance error amplifier. a series r and c compensation network connected to comp provides one pole and one zero. the pole is: vea c ea p g c g f ? ? ? ? 2 2 where; g ea is the error amplifier transconductance, which is 20010 -6 a/v; g vea is the error amplifier voltage gain, which is 500 v/v and c c is compensation capacitor. the zero given by the external compensation network, capacitor c c (c 5 in figure 1) and resistor r c (r 1 in figure 1), is located at: c c z r c f ? ? ? ? 2 1 2 to design the compensation circuit, a target crossover frequency f c for close loop must be selected. the system crossover frequency is where control loop has unity gain. the crossover frequency is also called the converter bandwidth. generally a higher bandwidth means faster response to load transient. however, the bandwidth should not be too high due to system stability concern. when designing the compensation loop, converter stability under all line and load condition must be considered. usually, it is recommended to set the bandwidth to be less than 1/10 of switching frequency. the strategy for choosing r c and c c is to set the cross over frequency with r c and set the compensator zero with c c . using selected crossover frequency, f c , to calculate r c : cs ea o fb o c c g g c v v f r ? ? ? ? ? ? 2 where; f c is desired crossover frequency; v fb is 0.8v; g ea is the error amplifier transconductance, which is 20010 -6 a/v and g cs is the current sense circuit transconductance, which is 4.5 a/v. the compensation capacitor c c and resistor r c together make a zero. this zero is put somewhere close to the dominate pole f p1 but lower than 1/5 of selected crossover frequency. c c can is selected by: 1 2 5 . 1 p c c f r c ? ? ? ?
