It can provide simple down conversion to output voltages as low as 0.6V. Though the control sections of the IC are rated for 3 to 6V, the driver sections are designed to accept input supply rails as high as 16V. The use of adaptive nonoverlapping MOSFET gate drivers helps avoid potential shoot-through problems while maintaining high efficiency. The IC is designed for the more costeffective option of driving only N-channel MOSFETs in both the high-side and low-side positions. It senses the low-side switch voltage drop for providing a simple, adjustable current limit. 1 * * * * * Power Stage Input Voltage from 1 V to 16 V Control Stage Input Voltage from 3 V to 6 V Output Voltage Adjustable down to 0.6 V Power Good Flag and Shutdown Output Over-Voltage and Under-Voltage Detection 2% Feedback Voltage Accuracy Over Temperature Low-Side Adjustable Current Sensing Adjustable Soft-Start Tracking and Sequencing with Shutdown and Soft-Start Pins Switching Frequency from 50 kHz to 1 MHz TSSOP-14 Package The fixed-frequency voltage-mode PWM control architecture is adjustable from 50 kHz to 1 MHz with one external resistor. This wide range of switching frequency gives the power supply designer the flexibility to make better tradeoffs between component size, cost and efficiency. 2 Applications * * * * * 3.3V Buck Regulation Cable Modem, DSL and ADSL Laser Jet and Ink Jet Printers Low Voltage Power Modules DSP, ASIC, Core, and I/O Features include soft-start, input under-voltage lockout (UVLO) and Power Good (based on both under-voltage and over-voltage detection). In addition, the shutdown pin of the IC can be used for providing startup delay, and the soft-start pin can be used for implementing precise tracking, for the purpose of sequencing with respect to an external rail.

BOOT 1 Bootstrap pin. This is the supply rail for the gate drivers. When the high-side MOSFET turns on, the voltage on this pin should be at least one gate threshold above the regulator input voltage VIN to properly turn on the MOSFET. See MOSFET Gate Drivers for more details on how to select MOSFETs. LG 2 Low-gate drive pin. This is the gate drive for the low-side N-channel MOSFET. This signal is interlocked with the high-side gate drive HG (Pin 14), so as to avoid shoot-through. 3 Power ground. This is also the ground for the low-side MOSFET driver. Both the pins must be connected together on the PCB and form a ground plane, which is usually also the system ground. PGND 13 SGND 4 Signal ground. It should be connected appropriately to the ground plane with due regard to good layout practices in switching power regulator circuits. VCC 5 Supply rail for the control sections of the IC. PWGD 6 Power Good pin. This is an open drain output, which is typically meant to be connected to VCC or any other low voltage source through a pull-up resistor. Choose the pull-up resistor so that the current going into this pin is kept below 1 mA. For most applications a recommended value for the pull-up resistor is 100 k. The voltage on this pin is thus pulled low under output under-voltage or overvoltage fault conditions and also under input UVLO. ISEN 7 Current limit threshold setting pin. This sources a fixed 40 A current. A resistor of appropriate value should be connected between this pin and the drain of the low-side MOSFET (switch node). EAO 8 Output of the error amplifier. The voltage level on this pin is compared with an internally generated ramp signal to determine the duty cycle. This pin is necessary for compensating the control loop. SS/TRACK 9 Soft-start and tracking pin. This pin is internally connected to the non-inverting input of the error amplifier during soft-start, and in fact any time the SS/TRACK pin voltage happens to be below the internal reference voltage. For the basic soft-start function, a capacitor of minimum value 1 nF is connected from this pin to ground. To track the rising ramp of another power supply's output, connect a resistor divider from the output of that supply to this pin as described in Application and Implementation. FB 10 Feedback pin. This is the inverting input of the error amplifier, which is used for sensing the output voltage and compensating the control loop. FREQ 11 Frequency adjust pin. The switching frequency is set by connecting a resistor of suitable value between this pin and ground. The equation for calculating the exact value is provided in Application and Implementation, but some typical values (rounded up to the nearest standard values) are 324 k for 100 kHz, 97.6 k for 300 kHz, 56.2 k for 500 kHz, 24.9 k for 1 MHz. SD 12 IC shutdown pin. Pull this pin to VCC to ensure the IC is enabled. Connect to ground to disable the IC. Under shutdown, both high-side and low-side drives are off. This pin also features a precision threshold for power supply sequencing purposes, as well as a low threshold to ensure minimal quiescent current. HG 14 High-gate drive pin. This is the gate drive for the high-side N-channel MOSFET. This signal is interlocked with LG (Pin 2) to avoid shoot-through.

It has output shutdown (SD), input under-voltage lock-out (UVLO) mode and power good (PWGD) flag (based on overvoltage and under-voltage detection). The over-voltage and under-voltage signals are logically OR'ed to drive the power good signal and provide a logic signal to the system if the output voltage goes out of regulation. Current limit is achieved by sensing the voltage VDS across the low side MOSFET. 7.2 Functional Block Diagram VCC SD FREQ CLOCK & RAMP PGND PGND SGND UVLO SHUT DOWN LOGIC BOOT 10 Ps DELAY HG SSDONE PWGD SYNCHRONOUS DRIVER LOGIC OV UV 0.71V LG 0.434V 10 PA SS/TRACK 1VPP PWM LOGIC PWM Soft-Start Comparator + Logic REF 40 PA - + 90 PA ISEN ILIM EA - + VREF = 0.6V FB EAO 7.3 Feature Description 7.3.1 Start Up and Soft-Start When VCC exceeds 2.76V and the shutdown pin (SD) sees a logic high, the soft-start period begins. Then an internal, fixed 10 A source begins charging the soft-start capacitor. During soft-start the voltage on the soft-start capacitor CSS is connected internally to the non-inverting input of the error amplifier. The soft-start period lasts until the voltage on the soft-start capacitor exceeds the LM2743 reference voltage of 0.6V. At this point the reference voltage takes over at the non-inverting error amplifier input. The capacitance of CSS determines the length of the soft-start period, and can be approximated by: CSS = tSS 60 where 10 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 LM2743 www.ti.com SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 Feature Description (continued) * CSS is in F and tSS is in ms (1) During soft start the Power Good flag is forced low and it is released when the FB pin voltage reaches 70% of 0.6V. At this point the chip enters normal operation mode, and the output overvoltage and undervoltage monitoring starts. 7.3.2 Normal Operation While in normal operation mode, the LM2743 regulates the output voltage by controlling the duty cycle of the high side and low side MOSFETs (see Typical Application Diagram). The equation governing output voltage is: RFB1 + RFB2 VOUT = VFB RFB1 (VFB = 0.6V) (2) The PWM frequency is adjustable between 50 kHz and 1 MHz and is set by an external resistor, RFADJ, between the FREQ pin and ground. The resistance needed for a desired frequency is approximately: RFADJ = -5.93 + 3.06 12 107 10 + 0.24 2 fSW (fSW) (3) Where fSW is in Hz and RFADJ is in k. 7.3.3 Tracking a Voltage Level The LM2743 can track the output of a master power supply during soft-start by connecting a resistor divider to the SS/TRACK pin. In this way, the output voltage slew rate of the LM2743 will be controlled by the master supply for loads that require precise sequencing. When the tracking function is used no soft-start capacitor should be connected to the SS/TRACK pin. Otherwise, a CSS value of at least 1 nF between the soft-start pin and ground should be used. Master Power Supply VOUT1 = 5V RT2 1 k: VOUT2 = 1.8V SS/TRACK VSS = 0.65V RT1 150: LM2743 FB RFB2 10 k: VFB RFB1 5 k: Figure 19. Tracking Circuit One way to use the tracking feature is to design the tracking resistor divider so that the master supply's output voltage (VOUT1) and the LM2743's output voltage (represented symbolically in Figure 19 as VOUT2, that is, without explicitly showing the power components) both rise together and reach their target values at the same time. For this case, the equation governing the values of the tracking divider resistors RT1 and RT2 is: 0.65 = VOUT1 RT1 RT1 + RT2 (4) Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 11 LM2743 SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 www.ti.com Feature Description (continued) The current through RT1 should be about 3 mA to 4 mA for precise tracking. The final voltage of the SS/TRACK pin should be set higher than the feedback voltage of 0.6 V (say about 0.65 V as in the above equation). If the master supply voltage was 5 V and the LM2743 output voltage was 1.8 V, for example, then the value of RT1 needed to give the two supplies identical soft-start times would be 150 . A timing diagram for the equal softstart time case is shown in Figure 20. 5V VOUT1 1.8V VOUT2 Figure 20. Tracking with Equal Soft-Start Time 7.3.4 Tracking Voltage Slew Rate The tracking feature can alternatively be used not to make both rails reach regulation at the same time but rather to have similar rise rates (in terms of output dV/dt). This method ensures that the output voltage of the LM2743 always reaches regulation before the output voltage of the master supply. Because the output of the master supply is divided down, in order to track properly the output voltage of the LM2743 must be lower than the voltage of the master supply. In this case, the tracking resistors can be determined based on the following equation: RT1 VOUT2 = VOUT1 RT1 + RT2 (5) For the example case of VOUT1 = 5 V and VOUT2 = 1.8 V, with RT1 set to 150 as before, RT2 is calculated from the above equation to be 265 . A timing diagram for the case of equal slew rates is shown in Figure 21. 5V 1.8V VOUT1 1.8V VOUT2 Figure 21. Tracking with Equal Slew Rates 7.3.5 Sequencing The start up/soft-start of the LM2743 can be delayed for the purpose of sequencing by connecting a resistor divider from the output of a master power supply to the SD pin, as shown in Figure 22. 12 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 LM2743 www.ti.com SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 Feature Description (continued) Master Power Supply VOUT1 RS2 VOUT2 SD LM2743 RS1 RFB2 FB VFB RFB1 Figure 22. Sequencing Circuit A desired delay time tDELAY between the startup of the master supply output voltage and the LM2743 output voltage can be set based on the SD pin low-to-high threshold VSD-IH and the slew rate of the voltage at the SD pin, SRSD: tDELAY = VSD-IH / SRSD (6) Note again, that in Figure 22, the output voltage of the LM2743 has been represented symbolically as VOUT2,. without explicitly showing the power components. VSD-IH is typically 1.08V and SRSD is the slew rate of the SD pin voltage. The values of the sequencing divider resistors RS1 and RS2 set the SRSD based on the master supply output voltage slew rate, SROUT1, using the following equation: SRSD = SROUT1 RS1 RS1 + RS2 (7) For example, if the master supply output voltage slew rate was 1V/ms and the desired delay time between the startup of the master supply and LM2743 output voltage was 5ms, then the desired SD pin slew rate would be (1.08V/5 ms) = 0.216 V/ms. Due to the internal impedance of the SD pin, the maximum recommended value for RS2 is 1 k. To achieve the desired slew rate, RS1 would then be 274 . A timing diagram for this example is shown in Figure 23. 5V VSD-IH 1.08V VOUT1 1.8V VOUT2 t = 5 ms Figure 23.

Once the SD voltage goes above VSD-IH, a 17-A pull-up current is activated as shown in Figure 24. This current is used to create the internal hysteresis (170 mV); however, high external impedances will affect the SD pin logic thresholds as well. The external impedance used for the sequencing divider network should preferably be a small fraction of the impedance of the SD pin for good performance (around 1 k). 17 PA 8 PA Bias Enable SD 10k Soft-Start Enable 1.25V + - Figure 24. SD Pin Logic 7.3.7 MOSFET Gate Drivers The LM2743 has two gate drivers designed for driving N-channel MOSFETs in a synchronous mode. Note that unlike most other synchronous controllers, the bootstrap capacitor of the LM2743 provides power not only to the driver of the upper MOSFET, but the lower MOSFET driver too (both drivers are ground referenced, i.e. no floating driver). To fully turn the top MOSFET on, the BOOT voltage must be at least one gate threshold greater than VIN when the high-side drive goes high. This bootstrap voltage is usually supplied from a local charge pump structure. But looking at the Typical Application schematic, this also means that the difference voltage VCC - VD1, which is the voltage the bootstrap capacitor charges up to, must be always greater than the maximum tolerance limit of the threshold voltage of the upper MOSFET. Here VD1 is the forward voltage drop across the bootstrap diode D1. This therefore may place restrictions on the minimum input voltage and/or type of MOSFET used. The most basic charge bootstrap pump circuit can be built using one Schottky diode and a small capacitor, as shown in Figure 25. The capacitor CBOOT serves to maintain enough voltage between the top MOSFET gate and source to control the device even when the top MOSFET is on and its source has risen up to the input voltage level. The charge pump circuitry is fed from VCC, which can operate over a range from 3.0V to 6.0V. Using this basic method the voltage applied to the gates of both high-side and low-side MOSFETs is VCC - VD. This method works well when VCC is 5 V10%, because the gate drives will get at least 4.0V of drive voltage during the worst case of VCC-MIN = 4.5 V and VD-MAX = 0.5 V. Logic level MOSFETs generally specify their on-resistance at VGS = 4.5 V. When VCC = 3.3 V 10%, the gate drive at worst case could go as low as 2.5 V. Logic level MOSFETs are not specified to turn on, or may have much higher on-resistance at 2.5 V. Sub-logic level MOSFETs, usually specified at VGS = 2.5 V, will work, but are more expensive, and tend to have higher on-resistance. The circuit in Figure 25 works well for input voltages ranging from 1 V up to 16 V and VCC = 5 V 10%, because the drive voltage depends only on VCC. 14 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 LM2743 www.ti.com SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 Feature Description (continued) LM2743 D1 BOOT VCC CBOOT VIN HG + VO + LG Figure 25. Basic Charge Pump (Bootstrap) Note that the LM2743 can be paired with a low cost linear regulator like the LM78L05 to run from a single input rail between 6.0 and 14 V.

This circuit provides an equal voltage drive of VCC - 3VD + VIN to both the high-side and low-side MOSFET drives. This method should only be used in circuits that use 3.3 V for both VCC and VIN. Even with VIN = VCC = 3.0 V (10% lower tolerance on 3.3 V) and VD = 0.5 V both high-side and low-side gates will have at least 4.5 V of drive. The power dissipation of the gate drive circuitry is directly proportional to gate drive voltage, hence the thermal limits of the LM2743 IC will quickly be reached if this circuit is used with VCC or VIN voltages over 5V.

Charge Pump with Added Gate Drive All the gate drive circuits shown in Figure 25 through Figure 27 typically use 100-nF ceramic capacitors in the bootstrap locations. 7.3.8 Power Good Signal The open drain output on the Power Good pin needs a pull-up resistor to a low voltage source. The pull-up resistor should be chosen so that the current going into the Power Good pin is less than 1 mA. A 100-k resistor is recommended for most applications. The Power Good signal is an OR-gated flag which takes into account both output over-voltage and under-voltage conditions. If the feedback pin (FB) voltage is 18% above its nominal value (118% x VFB = 0.708V) or falls 28% below that value (72 %x VFB = 0.42V) the Power Good flag goes low. The Power Good flag can be used to signal other circuits that the output voltage has fallen out of regulation, however the switching of the LM2743 continues regardless of the state of the Power Good signal. The Power Good flag will return to logic high whenever the feedback pin voltage is between 72% and 118% of 0.6V. 7.3.9 UVLO The 2.76V turn-on threshold on VCC has a built in hysteresis of about 300 mV. If VCC drops below 2.42V, the chip enters UVLO mode. UVLO consists of turning off the top and bottom MOSFETS and remaining in that condition until VCC rises above 2.76V. As with shutdown, the soft-start capacitor is discharged through an internal MOSFET, ensuring that the next start-up will be controlled by the soft-start circuitry. 7.3.10 Current Limit Current limit is realized by sensing the voltage across the low-side MOSFET while it is on. The RDS(ON) of the MOSFET is a known value; hence the current through the MOSFET can be determined as: VDS = IOUT x RDS(ON) (8) The current through the low-side MOSFET while it is on is also the falling portion of the inductor current. The current limit threshold is determined by an external resistor, RCS, connected between the switching node and the ISEN pin. A constant current of 40 A is forced through RCS, causing a fixed voltage drop. This fixed voltage is compared against VDS and if the latter is higher, the current limit of the chip has been reached. To obtain a more accurate value for RCS you must consider the operating values of RDS(ON) and ISEN-TH at their operating temperatures in your application and the effect of slight parameter differences from part to part. RCS can be found by using the following equation using the RDS(ON) value of the low side MOSFET at it's expected hot temperature and the absolute minimum value expected over the full temperature range for the for the ISEN-TH which is 25 A: RCS = RDSON-HOT x ILIM / 40 A 16 (9) Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 LM2743 www.ti.com SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 Feature Description (continued) For example, a conservative 15-A current limit in a 10-A design with a minimum RDS(ON) of 10 m would require a 6-k resistor. To prevent the ISEN pin from sinking too much current when the switch node goes above 9.5 V, the value of the current limit setting resistor RCS should not be too low. The criterion is as follows, VIN 9.5V RCS t 10 mA (10) where the 10 mA is the maximum current ISEN pin is allowed to sink. For example if VIN = 13.2 V, the minimum value of RCS is 370 . Because current sensing is done across the low-side MOSFET, no minimum high-side ontime is necessary. The LM2743 enters current limit mode if the inductor current exceeds the current limit threshold at the point where the high-side MOSFET turns off and the low-side MOSFET turns on. (The point of peak inductor current, see Figure 28). Note that in normal operation mode the high-side MOSFET always turns on at the beginning of a clock cycle. In current limit mode, by contrast, the high-side MOSFET on-pulse is skipped. This causes inductor current to fall. Unlike a normal operation switching cycle, however, in a current limit mode switching cycle the high-side MOSFET will turn on as soon as inductor current has fallen to the current limit threshold. The LM2743 will continue to skip high-side MOSFET pulses until the inductor current peak is below the current limit threshold, at which point the system resumes normal operation. Normal Operation Current Limit ILIM IL D Figure 28. Current Limit Threshold Unlike a high-side MOSFET current sensing scheme, which limits the peaks of inductor current, low-side current sensing is only allowed to limit the current during the converter off-time, when inductor current is falling. Therefore in a typical current limit plot the valleys are normally well defined, but the peaks are variable, according to the duty cycle. The PWM error amplifier and comparator control the off-pulse of the high-side MOSFET, even during current limit mode, meaning that peak inductor current can exceed the current limit threshold. Assuming that the output inductor does not saturate, the maximum peak inductor current during current limit mode can be calculated with the following equation: IPK-CL = ILIM + (TSW - 200 ns) VIN - VO L (11) Where TSW is the inverse of switching frequency fSW. The 200 ns term represents the minimum off-time of the duty cycle, which ensures enough time for correct operation of the current sensing circuitry.

The output of the LM2743 internal error amplifier is limited by the voltage on the soft-start capacitor. Hence, discharging the soft-start capacitor reduces the maximum duty cycle D of the controller. During severe current limit this reduction in duty cycle will reduce the output voltage if the current limit conditions last for an extended time. Output inductor current will be reduced in turn to a flat level equal to the current limit threshold. The third benefit of the soft-start capacitor discharge is a smooth, controlled ramp of output voltage when the current limit condition is cleared. 7.3.11 Foldback Current Limit In the case where extra protection is used to help an output short condition, a current foldback resistor (RCLF) should be considered, see Figure 29. First select the percentage of current limit foldback (PLIM): PLIM = ILIM x P (12) where P is a ratio between 0 and 1. VOUT 40 PA RCLF RCS ILIM + SW ISEN Figure 29. Foldback Current Limit Circuit Obtain the RCS with the following equation: PLIM x RDS(ON) = RCS ISEN (13) where ISEN = 40 A. If the switch node goes above 9.5 V the following criterion must be satisfied: VIN 9.5V RCS t 10 mA (14) The equation for calculating the foldback resistance value is: RCS x VOUT RCLF = (ILIM x RDS(ON)) (ISEN x RCS) (15) 7.4 Device Functional Modes 7.4.1 Shutdown If the shutdown pin is pulled low, (below 0.8 V) the LM2743 enters shutdown mode, and discharges the soft-start capacitor through a MOSFET switch. The high and low-side MOSFETs are turned off. The LM2743 remains in this state as long as VSD sees a logic low (see the Electrical Characteristics table). To assure proper IC start-up the shutdown pin should not be left floating. For normal operation this pin should be connected directly to VCC or to another voltage between 1.3 V to VCC (see the Electrical Characteristics table). 18 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 LM2743 www.ti.com SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 8 Application and Implementation NOTE Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI's customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality. 8.1 Application Information The LM2743 is a voltage-mode, high-speed synchronous buck regulator with a PWM control scheme. It is designed for use in set-top boxes, thin clients, DSL/Cable modems, and other applications that require highefficiency buck converters. Use the following design procedure to select component values for the LM2743 device. Use the WEBENCHTM to generate a complete design. 8.2 Typical Applications 8.2.1 Synchronous Buck Converter Typical Application using LM2743 VCC = 3.3V RCC VIN = 3.3V D1 CBOOT RPULL-UP + Q1 VCC SD CCC BOOT PWGD CSS RCS L1 VOUT = 1.2V@4A ISEN LM2743 FREQ RFADJ CIN1,2 HG LG SS/TRACK PGND SGND PGND EAO FB RFB2 RC2 CC3 + CO1,2 RFB1 CC1 CC2 RC1 Figure 30. 3.3 V to 1.2 V at 4 A, fSW = 300 kHz 8.2.1.1 Design Requirements The following section provides a step-by-step design guide of a voltage-mode synchronous buck converter using the LM2743. This design converts 3.3 V (VIN) to 1.2 V (VOUT) at a maximum load of 4 A, with an efficiency of 89% and a switching frequency of 300 kHz. The same procedures can be followed to create many other designs with varying input voltages, output voltages, and load currents. 8.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure 8.2.1.2.1 Duty Cycle Calculation The complete duty cycle for a buck converter is defined with the following equation: VOUT + VSWL D= VIN - VSWH + VSWL (16) where VSWL and VSWH are the respective forward voltage drops that develop across the low side and high side MOSFETs. Assuming the inductor ripple current is 20% to 30% of the output current, therefore: VSWL = IOUT x RDS(ON)LOW (Low-Side MOSFET) VSWH = IOUT x RDS(ON)HIGH (High-Side MOSFET) (17) (18) Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 19 LM2743 SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 www.ti.com Typical Applications (continued) To calculate the maximum duty cycle use the estimated 'hot' RDS(on) value of the MOSFETs, the minimum input voltage, and maximum load. As shown in Figure 31, the worst case maximum duty cycles of the LM2743 occurs at 125C junction temperature vs VCC (IC control section voltage). Ensure that the operating duty cycle is below the curve in Figure 31, if this condition is not satisfied, the system will be unable to develop the required duty cycle to derive the necessary system power and so the output voltage will fall out of regulation. Figure 31. Maximum Duty Cycle vs VCC TJ = 125C 8.2.1.2.2 Input Capacitor The input capacitors in a Buck converter are subjected to high stress due to the input current trapezoidal waveform. Input capacitors are selected for their ripple current capability and their ability to withstand the heat generated since that ripple current passes through their ESR. Input rms ripple current is approximately: IRMS_RIP = IOUT x D(1 - D) (19) The power dissipated by each input capacitor is: (IRMS_RIP)2 x ESR PCAP = n2 (20) where n is the number of capacitors, and ESR is the equivalent series resistance of each capacitor. The equation above indicates that power loss in each capacitor decreases rapidly as the number of input capacitors increases. The worst-case ripple for a Buck converter occurs during full load and when the duty cycle (D) is 0.5. For this 3.3V to 1.2V design the duty cycle is 0.364. For a 4A maximum load the ripple current is 1.92A. 8.2.1.2.3 Output Inductor The output inductor forms the first half of the power stage in a Buck converter. It is responsible for smoothing the square wave created by the switching action and for controlling the output current ripple (IOUT). The inductance is chosen by selecting between tradeoffs in efficiency and response time. The smaller the output inductor, the more quickly the converter can respond to transients in the load current. However, as shown in the efficiency calculations, a smaller inductor requires a higher switching frequency to maintain the same level of output current ripple. An increase in frequency can mean increasing loss in the MOSFETs due to the charging and discharging of the gates. Generally the switching frequency is chosen so that conduction loss outweighs switching loss. The equation for output inductor selection is: VIN - VOUT L= 20 xD 'IOUT x fSW (21) Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 LM2743 www.ti.com SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 Typical Applications (continued) L= 3.3V - 1.2V 1.2V x 3.3V 0.4 x 4A x 300 kHz (22) (23) L = 1.6 H Here we have plugged in the values for output current ripple, input voltage, output voltage, switching frequency, and assumed a 40% peak-to-peak output current ripple. This yields an inductance of 1.6 H. The output inductor must be rated to handle the peak current (also equal to the peak switch current), which is (IOUT + (0.5 x IOUT)) = 4.8 A, for a 4 A design. The Coilcraft DO3316P-222P is 2.2 H, is rated to 7.4-A peak, and has a direct current resistance (DCR) of 12 m. After selecting an output inductor, inductor current ripple should be re-calculated with the new inductance value, as this information is needed to select the output capacitor. Re-arranging the equation used to select inductance yields the following: VIN(MAX) - VO 'IOUT = FSW x LACTUAL xD (24) VIN(MAX) is assumed to be 10% above the steady state input voltage, or 3.6V. The actual current ripple will then be 1.2A. Peak inductor/switch current will be 4.6A. 8.2.1.2.4 Output Capacitor The output capacitor forms the second half of the power stage of a Buck switching converter. It is used to control the output voltage ripple (VOUT) and to supply load current during fast load transients. In this example the output current is 4 A and the expected type of capacitor is an aluminum electrolytic, as with the input capacitors. Other possibilities include ceramic, tantalum, and solid electrolyte capacitors, however the ceramic type often do not have the large capacitance needed to supply current for load transients, and tantalums tend to be more expensive than aluminum electrolytic. Aluminum capacitors tend to have very high capacitance and fairly low ESR, meaning that the ESR zero, which affects system stability, will be much lower than the switching frequency. The large capacitance means that at the switching frequency, the ESR is dominant, hence the type and number of output capacitors is selected on the basis of ESR. One simple formula to find the maximum ESR based on the desired output voltage ripple, VOUT and the designed output current ripple, IOUT, is: ESRMAX = 'VOUT 'IOUT (25) In this example, in order to maintain a 2% peak-to-peak output voltage ripple and a 40% peak-to-peak inductor current ripple, the required maximum ESR is 20 m. The Sanyo 4SP560M electrolytic capacitor will give an equivalent ESR of 14 m. The capacitance of 560 F is enough to supply energy even to meet severe load transient demands. 8.2.1.2.5 MOSFETs Selection of the power MOSFETs is governed by a tradeoff between cost, size, and efficiency. One method is to determine the maximum cost that can be endured, and then select the most efficient device that fits that price. Breaking down the losses in the high-side and low-side MOSFETs and then creating spreadsheets is one way to determine relative efficiencies between different MOSFETs. Good correlation between the prediction and the bench result is not specified, however. Single-channel buck regulators that use a controller IC and discrete MOSFETs tend to be most efficient for output currents of 2A to 10A. Losses in the high-side MOSFET can be broken down into conduction loss, gate charging loss, and switching loss. Conduction loss, or I2R loss, is approximately: PC = D ((IO)2 x RDSON-HI x 1.3) (High-Side MOSFET) PC = (1 - D) x ((IO)2 x RDSON-LO x 1.3) (Low-Side MOSFET) (26) (27) Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 21 LM2743 SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 www.ti.com Typical Applications (continued) In the above equations, the factor 1.3 accounts for the increase in MOSFET RDSON due to heating. Alternatively, the 1.3 can be ignored and the RDSON of the MOSFET estimated using the RDSON Vs. Temperature curves in the MOSFET datasheets. Gate charging loss results from the current driving the gate capacitance of the power MOSFETs, and is approximated as: PGC = n x (VDD) x QG x fSW (28) where `n' is the number of MOSFETs (if multiple devices have been placed in parallel), VDD is the driving voltage (see MOSFET Gate Drivers section) and QGS is the gate charge of the MOSFET. If different types of MOSFETs are used, the n term can be ignored and their gate charges simply summed to form a cumulative QG. Gate charge loss differs from conduction and switching losses in that the actual dissipation occurs in the LM2743, and not in the MOSFET itself. Switching loss occurs during the brief transition period as the high-side MOSFET turns on and off, during which both current and voltage are present in the channel of the MOSFET. It can be approximated as: PSW = 0.5 x VIN x IO x (tr + tf) x fSW (29) where tR and tF are the rise and fall times of the MOSFET. Switching loss occurs in the high-side MOSFET only. For this example, the maximum drain-to-source voltage applied to either MOSFET is 3.6V. The maximum drive voltage at the gate of the high-side MOSFET is 3.1V, and the maximum drive voltage for the low-side MOSFET is 3.3V. Due to the low drive voltages in this example, a MOSFET that turns on fully with 3.1V of gate drive is needed. For designs of 5A and under, dual MOSFETs in SOIC-8 package provide a good trade-off between size, cost, and efficiency. 8.2.1.2.6 Support Components CIN2 - A small value (0.1-F to 1-F) ceramic capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the drain of the high-side MOSFET and source of the low-side MOSFET (dual MOSFETs make this easy). This capacitor should be X5R type dielectric or better. RCC, CCC- These are standard filter components designed to ensure smooth DC voltage for the chip supply. RCC should be 1 to 10 . CCC should 1 F, X5R type or better. CBOOT- Bootstrap capacitor, typically 100 nF. RPULL-UP - This is a standard pull-up resistor for the open-drain power good signal (PWGD). The recommended value is 10 k connected to VCC. If this feature is not necessary, the resistor can be omitted. D1 - A small Schottky diode should be used for the bootstrap. It allows for a minimum drop for both high and lowside drivers. The MBR0520 or BAT54 work well in most designs. RCS - Resistor used to set the current limit. Since the design calls for a peak current magnitude (IOUT+ (0.5 x IOUT)) of 4.8 A, a safe setting would be 6A. (This is below the saturation current of the output inductor, which is 7 A.) Following the equation from the Current Limit section, a 1.3-k resistor should be used. RFADJ - This resistor is used to set the switching frequency of the chip. The resistor value is calculated from equation in Normal Operation section. For 300-kHz operation, a 97.6-k resistor should be used. CSS - The soft-start capacitor depends on the user requirements and is calculated based on the equation given in the section titled Start Up and Soft-Start. Therefore, for a 700-s delay, a 12-nF capacitor is suitable. 8.2.1.2.7 Control Loop Compensation The LM2743 uses voltage-mode (`VM') PWM control to correct changes in output voltage due to line and load transients. One of the attractive advantages of voltage mode control is its relative immunity to noise and layout. However VM requires careful small signal compensation of the control loop for achieving high bandwidth and good phase margin. 22 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 LM2743 www.ti.com SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 Typical Applications (continued) The control loop is comprised of two parts. The first is the power stage, which consists of the duty cycle modulator, output inductor, output capacitor, and load. The second part is the error amplifier, which for the LM2743 is a 9-MHz op-amp used in the classic inverting configuration. Figure 32 shows the regulator and control loop components.

Power Stage and Error Amplifier One popular method for selecting the compensation components is to create Bode plots of gain and phase for the power stage and error amplifier. Combined, they make the overall bandwidth and phase margin of the regulator easy to see. Software tools such as Excel, MathCAD, and Matlab are useful for showing how changes in compensation or the power stage affect system gain and phase. The power stage modulator provides a DC gain ADC that is equal to the input voltage divided by the peak-to-peak value of the PWM ramp. This ramp is 1.0VP-P for the LM2743. The inductor and output capacitor create a double pole at frequency fDP, and the capacitor ESR and capacitance create a single zero at frequency fESR. For this example, with VIN = 3.3 V, these quantities are: VIN ADC = fDP = fESR = VRAMP 1 2S = 3.3 = 10.4 dB 1.0 RO + RL LCO(RO + ESR) 1 2SCOESR (30) = 4.5 kHz (31) = 20.3 kHz (32) In the equation for fDP, the variable RL is the power stage resistance, and represents the inductor DCR plus the on resistance of the top power MOSFET. RO is the output voltage divided by output current. The power stage transfer function GPS is given by the following equation, and Figure 34 shows Bode plots of the phase and gain in this example. VIN x RO GPS = VRAMP x sCORC + 1 a x s2 + b x s + c where * * * a = LCO(RO + RC) b = L + CO(RORL + RORC + RCRL) c = RO + RL (33) Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 23 LM2743 SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 www.ti.com 20 0 4 -30 PHASE (o) GAIN (dB) Typical Applications (continued) -12 -28 -44 -60 -90 -120 -60 -150 100 1k 10k 100k 100 1M 1k 10k 100k 1M FREQUENCY (Hz) FREQUENCY (Hz) Figure 33. Gain vs Frequency Figure 34. Power Stage Gain and Phase The double pole at 4.5 kHz causes the phase to drop to approximately -130 at around 10 kHz. The ESR zero, at 20.3 kHz, provides a +90 boost that prevents the phase from dropping to -180. If this loop were left uncompensated, the bandwidth would be approximately 10 kHz and the phase margin 53. In theory, the loop would be stable, but would suffer from poor DC regulation (due to the low DC gain) and would be slow to respond to load transients (due to the low bandwidth.) In practice, the loop could easily become unstable due to tolerances in the output inductor, capacitor, or changes in output current, or input voltage. Therefore, the loop is compensated using the error amplifier and a few passive components. For this example, a Type III, or three-pole-two-zero approach gives optimal bandwidth and phase. In most voltage mode compensation schemes, including Type III, a single pole is placed at the origin to boost DC gain as high as possible. Two zeroes fZ1 and fZ2 are placed at the double pole frequency to cancel the double pole phase lag. Then, a pole, fP1 is placed at the frequency of the ESR zero. A final pole fP2 is placed at one-half of the switching frequency. The gain of the error amplifier transfer function is selected to give the best bandwidth possible without violating the Nyquist stability criteria. In practice, a good crossover point is one-fifth of the switching frequency, or 60 kHz for this example. The generic equation for the error amplifier transfer function is: s +1 2SfZ1 GEA = AEA x s s +1 2SfP1 s +1 2SfZ2 s +1 2SfP2 (34) In this equation, the variable AEA is a ratio of the values of the capacitance and resistance of the compensation components, arranged as shown in Figure 32. AEA is selected to provide the desired bandwidth. A starting value of 80,000 for AEA should give a conservative bandwidth. Increasing the value will increase the bandwidth, but will also decrease phase margin. Designs with 45 to 60 are usually best because they represent a good trade-off between bandwidth and phase margin. In general, phase margin is lowest and gain highest (worst-case) for maximum input voltage and minimum output current. One method to select AEA is to use an iterative process beginning with these worst-case conditions. 1. Increase AEA 2. Check overall bandwidth and phase margin 3. Change VIN to minimum and recheck overall bandwidth and phase margin 4. Change IO to maximum and recheck overall bandwidth and phase margin The process ends when the both bandwidth and the phase margin are sufficiently high. For this example input voltage can vary from 3.0 to 3.6 V and output current can vary from 0 to 4 A, and after a few iterations a moderate gain factor of 101 dB is used. The error amplifier of the LM2743 has a unity-gain bandwidth of 9 MHz.

Setting RFB2 to 10 k, 1% usually gives values for the other compensation resistors and capacitors that fall within a reasonable range. (Capacitances > 1 pF, resistances < 1 M) CC1, CC2, CC3, RC1, and RC2 are selected to provide the poles and zeroes at the desired frequencies, using the following equations: fZ1 CC1 = CC2 = CC3 = RC1 = RC2 = AEA x 10,000 x fP2 1 AEA x 10,000 1 2S x 10,000 (38) x 2S x CC2 x fZ1 2S x CC3 x fP1 (37) - CC1 = 882 pF 1 1 = 27 pF 1 1 = 2.73 nF fZ2 fP1 (39) = 39.8 k: (40) = 2.55 k: (41) In practice, a good trade off between phase margin and bandwidth can be obtained by selecting the closest 10% capacitor values above what are suggested for CC1 and CC2, the closest 10% capacitor value below the suggestion for CC3, and the closest 1% resistor values below the suggestions for RC1, RC2. Note that if the suggested value for RC2 is less than 100, it should be replaced by a short circuit.

A reasonable estimation of the efficiency of a switching buck controller can be obtained by adding together the Output Power (POUT) loss and the Total Power (PTOTAL) loss: POUT K= x 100% POUT + PTOTAL (47) The Output Power (POUT) for the Figure 30 design is (1.2 V x 4 A) = 4.8 W. The Total Power (PTOTAL), with an efficiency calculation to complement the design, is shown below. The majority of the power losses are due to low and high side of MOSFET's losses. The losses in any MOSFET are group of switching (PSW) and conduction losses(PCND). PFET = PSW + PCND = 61.38 mW + 270.42 mW PFET = 331.8 mW (48) (49) The following equations show FET Switching Loss (PSW). PSW = PSW = PSW = PSW = PSW(ON) + PSW(OFF) 0.5 x VIN x IOUT x (tr + tf) x fSW 0.5 x 3.3 V x 4 A x 300 kHz x 31 ns 61.38 mW (50) (51) (52) (53) The FDS6898A has a typical turn-on rise time tr and turn-off fall time tf of 15 ns and 16 ns, respectively. The switching losses for this type of dual N-Channel MOSFETs are 0.061 W. The following equations show FET Conduction Loss (PCND). PCND = PCND1 + PCND2 PCND1 = (IOUT)2 x RDS(ON) x k x D PCND2 = (IOUT)2 x RDS(ON) x k x (1-D) (54) (55) (56) RDS(ON) = 13 m and the factor is a constant value (k = 1.3) to account for the increasing RDS(ON) of a FET due to heating. PCND1 = (4A)2 x 13 m x 1.3 x 0.364 PCND2 = (4A)2 x 13 m x 1.3 x (1 - 0.364) PCND = 98.42 mW + 172 mW = 270.42 mW (57) (58) (59) There are few additional losses that are taken into account: The following equations show IC Operating Loss (PIC). PIC = IQ_VCC x VCC, (60) where IQ-VCC is the typical operating VCC current PIC= 1.5 mA x 3.3V = 4.95 mW (61) The following equations show FET Gate Charging Loss (PGATE). PGATE = n x VCC x QGS x fSW PGATE = 2 x 3.3 V x 3 nC x 300 kHz PGATE = 5.94 mW (62) (63) (64) Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 27 LM2743 SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 www.ti.com Typical Applications (continued) The value n is the total number of FETs used and QGS is the typical gate-source charge value, which is 3 nC. For the FDS6898A the gate charging loss is 5.94 mW. The following equations show Input Capacitor Loss (PCAP). (IRMS_RIP)2 x ESR PCAP = n2 where (65) IRMS_RIP = IOUT x D(1 - D) (66) Here n is the number of paralleled capacitors, ESR is the equivalent series resistance of each, and PCAP is the dissipation in each. So for example if we use only one input capacitor of 24 m. PCAP = (1.924A)2 x 24 m: 12 (67) (68) PCAP = 88.8 mW The following equation shows Output Inductor Loss (PIND). PIND = I2OUT x DCR (69) where DCR is the DC resistance. Therefore, for example PIND = (4A)2 x 11 m PIND = 176 mW (70) (71) The following equations show Total System Efficiency. PTOTAL = PFET + PIC + PGATE + PCAP + PIND (72) POUT K= K= 28 x 100% POUT + PTOTAL (73) 4.8W = 89% 4.8W + 0.6W (74) Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2004-2015, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2743 LM2743 www.ti.com SNVS276H - APRIL 2004 - REVISED OCTOBER 2015 Typical Applications (continued) 8.2.1.3 Application Curves VCC = 3.3V IOUT = 4A VOUT = 1.2V fSW = 300 kHz CSS = 12nF VCC = 3.3 V IOUT = 4 A Figure 39.

The power supply for the device is any DC voltage source within the specified input range (see Design Requirements). 10 Layout 10.1 Layout Guidelines In a buck regulator, the primary switching loop consists of the input capacitor and MOSFET switches. Minimixing the area of this loop reduces the stray inductance, and minimizes noise and possible erratic operation. High quality input capacitors should be placed as close as possible to the MOSFET switches, with the positive side of the input capacitor connected directly to the high-side MOSFET drain, and the ground side of the capacitor connected as close as possible to the low-side MOSFET switch ground connection. Connect all of the low power ground connections directly to the SGND pin. Connect the VCC capacitor directly to the PGND pin. 10.2 Layout Example Controller Place controller as close to the switches Inductor QL QH CIN COUT CIN VIN COUT GND GND VOUT Figure 44.

IN NO EVENT SHALL TI BE LIABLE FOR ANY ACTUAL, DIRECT, SPECIAL, COLLATERAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF TI RESOURCES OR USE THEREOF, AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER TI HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. Unless TI has explicitly designated an individual product as meeting the requirements of a particular industry standard (e.g., ISO/TS 16949 and ISO 26262), TI is not responsible for any failure to meet such industry standard requirements. Where TI specifically promotes products as facilitating functional safety or as compliant with industry functional safety standards, such products are intended to help enable customers to design and create their own applications that meet applicable functional safety standards and requirements. Using products in an application does not by itself establish any safety features in the application. Designers must ensure compliance with safety-related requirements and standards applicable to their applications. Designer may not use any TI products in life-critical medical equipment unless authorized officers of the parties have executed a special contract specifically governing such use. Life-critical medical equipment is medical equipment where failure of such equipment would cause serious bodily injury or death (e.g., life support, pacemakers, defibrillators, heart pumps, neurostimulators, and implantables). Such equipment includes, without limitation, all medical devices identified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as Class III devices and equivalent classifications outside the U.S. TI may expressly designate certain products as completing a particular qualification (e.g., Q100, Military Grade, or Enhanced Product). Designers agree that it has the necessary expertise to select the product with the appropriate qualification designation for their applications and that proper product selection is at Designers' own risk. Designers are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such selection. Designer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages, costs, losses, and/or liabilities arising out of Designer's noncompliance with the terms and provisions of this Notice.
