Functional Description 2.1 Regulation and Start-up The step-down switching regulator uses Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) and Pulse Frequency Modulation (PFM) modes to regulate the output voltage using digital control. The mode of operation depends on the level of output current and the output voltage. In steady states, the step-down switching regulator monitors the current flowing through the inductor to determine if the regulator is handling heavy or light load applications. For heavy load applications, the step-down regulator operates in the PWM mode (B and C in Figure 5) to minimize the ripple current for optimum efficiency and to minimize the ripple output voltage. The step-down regulator operates in the PFM and Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM) (A in Figure 5) to limit the switching actions for optimum efficiency in light load applications. In this mode, the average output voltage is slightly higher than the average output voltage for heavy transient load applications. Figure 5: Output Voltage Window Typical VOUT A B C D Doc.

Soft start reduces surge currents from input voltage and provides well-controlled output voltage rise characteristics. Figure 6 shows that the rise time for a 88MG877-x Series increases from 20 s at for a 0.8V output to 70 s for a 3.3V output with a 20 mA load. Higher load current or larger output capacitance will increase the rise time.

This can be very useful for standard output voltages. This method will eliminate the use of an external resistor to set the output voltage.

The VSET pin sets the output voltage and the PSET pin trims the set voltage to a percentage value. For example, to program 2.25V output, a 165 k resistor is selected for the VSET pin, and an 11 k resistor is selected for the PSET pin. The 165 k resistor sets the output voltage to 2.5V and the 11 k resistor trims the set voltage by -10%. Using the VSET resistor's value greater than 619 k or less than 7.68 k disables the step-down switching regulator and sets the SW pin to high impedance. If the VSET resistor's value is outside the 5% tolerance, the output can be either higher or lower than the set voltage. Using resistor values greater than 619 k or less than 7.68 k for the PSET pin does not affect the set voltage. When the PSET pin is not used, it must be connected to ground. Like the VSET resistor, the percent value can be either higher or lower if the PSET resistor's value is outside the 5% tolerance.

To configure the output to a different voltage, power has to recycle or the 88MG877-x Series has to turn OFF and back ON using the EN pin. The 88MG877-x Series provides an innovative technique to set the output voltage. During start-up it reads the value of external resistors, which are located outside the regulator's feedback loop to program the output voltage. By placing the output voltage programming resistor outside the regulator's feedback loop, its tolerance does not affect the accuracy of the output voltage. Normally, adjustable regulators use 1% resistors to set the output voltage. However, these resistors are located inside the feedback loop, introducing as much as 2% of initial accuracy error to the output voltage, resulting in an overall initial accuracy of 3%. Whereas, the 88MG877-x Series initial accuracy is 2% for any of the eight output voltages. The VSET and PSET pins are sensitive to excessive leakage currents and stray capacitance. The output voltage can potentially be programmed to the lower output voltage if there is contamination, which introduces excessive leakage current on the VSET and PSET pin, especially for the 3.3V output or +10%. The parasitic resistance on these nodes must be greater than 3 M and the stray capacitance must be less than 25 pF; otherwise, a 3.3V output can potentially end up at 3V.

Voltage margining is commonly used during system qualification to evaluate operation at "corner" conditions of voltage, temperature etc. Typically, output voltage will be offset up and down by some percentage (margin) of the nominal value. For the 88MG877-x Series, the VSET pin/resistor controls the nominal voltage of the switching regulator output while the PSET pin/resistor controls the margin voltage. As can be seen in Table 4, the PSET pin allows the margin to be set as high as 10% above and as low as -10% below the nominal setpoint established by VSET. Depending on the value of the PSET resistor intermediate points of 7.5%, 5% and 2.5% can also be accessed. For example, if an application calls for a nominal output voltage of 1.5V then Table 4 prescribes a value of R1 for the VSET resistor. This selection is shown in Figure 7 connected to the VSET pin. To offset the voltage above and below the nominal value, the PSET pin can be used with resistor values again from Table 4. Additionally, switches S1 and S2 can be alternately closed to select from the two resistors R3 and R2 (offset values) for PSET. If more offsets are required more switches and resistors may be used. As shown in Figure 7, if S1 is closed and S2 opened a positive 5% offset would be added to the nominal 1.5V output yielding 1.575V. Conversely, if S1 is opened and S2 closed the output would be offset to -5% from 1.5V, or 1.425V. Finally with both S1 and S2 opened the output would return to the nominal 1.5V. Thus voltage margining can be simply and reliably implemented with a minimum of components and design effort.

After the 88MG877-x Series is enabled and the input voltage is lowered, the highest value of the minimum input voltage for both regulators to remain enabled is 2.65V (typical). 2.5 Over Voltage Protection (OVP) The 88MG877-x Series incorporates an over voltage protection circuitry to disable the step-down switching regulator when the input voltage is above 5.7V (typical). The step-down switching regulator is enabled when the input voltage is below 5.6V (typical).

This output is held low when the output voltage of the step-down regulator is below the threshold. When the output voltage is above the threshold, the Power-On Reset pin goes high 40 ms later. Setting the output voltage greater than 1.35V, the threshold voltage is 0.9% * VOUT (typical). Setting the output voltage less than 1.32V, the threshold voltage is VOUT - 130 mV (typical). A built-in 25 s (tDELAY) delay is incorporated to prevent nuisance tripping.
