Note 3: MAX1630/MAX1 632/MAX1 633/MAX1 635 only. Note 4: Off mode for the 12V linear regulator occurs when the SMPS that has flyback feedback (Vpp) steered to it is disabled. In situations where the main outputs are being held up by external keep-alive supplies, turning off the 12OUT regulator pre- vents a leakage path from the output-referred flyback winding, through the rectifier, and into Vpp. Note 5: Since the reference uses VL as its supply, the references V+ line-regulation error is insignificant. 4 MAXIMAMulti-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers (Circuit of Figure 1, 3A Table 1 components, Ta = +25C, unless otherwise noted.) 100 90 80 70 EFFICIENCY (%) 60 50 500 400 300 200 100 MAXIMUM OUTPUT CURRENT (mA) 10,000 1000 INPUT CURRENT (1A) 3 Qa MAXIM 0.001 EFFICIENCY vs. 5V OUTPUT CURRENT V+=6V ON5 = 5V ONS = OV f = 300kHz MAX1631/MAX1634 5V QUTPUT CURRENT (A) MAX1630/MAX1633 MAXIMUM 15V Vpp OUTPUT CURRENT vs. SUPPLY VOLTAGE Vpp > 13V 3.3V REGULATING 1 | 3.3V LOAD = 0A V, lan LOAD = 3A / MAX1630/35-01 0.01 04 1 10 MAX 1630/35-04 SUPPLY VOLTAGE (V) STANDBY INPUT CURRENT vs. INPUT VOLTAGE ONS = OND = OV NO LOAD 0 5 10 15 20 MAX1630/35-07 5 10 15 20 25 30 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) EFFICIENCY (2%) mA) nM 3S INPUT CURRENT (' INPUT CURRENT (1A) 100 90 80 70 60 50 wo S nN on on Qa 0.001 EFFICIENCY vs. 3.3V OUTPUT CURRENT V+=6V ON3 = ONS = 5V f=300kHz | II MAX1631/MAX1 0.01 0.1 1 3,3V OUTPUT CURRENT (A) PWM MODE INPUT CURRENT vs. INPUT VOLTAGE MAX1630/35-02 } } ONS = ONS = BV SKIP = VL MAX1630/35-05 NO LOAD / [ 0 5 10 15 20 25 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) SHUTDOWN INPUT CURRENT vs. INPUT VOLTAGE 30 I SHDN =0V MAX1630/35-08 7 0 5 10 15 20 25 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 30 MAXIMUM OUTPUT CURRENT (mA) INPUT CURRENT (mA) MIN ViyT0 Vour DIFFERENTIAL (mV) 800 600 400 200 2 1000 100 1 MAX1632/MAX1635 MAXIMUM 15V Vpp OUTPUT CURRENT vs. SUPPLY VOLTAGE Typical Operating Characteristics T Vpp > 13V 5V REGULATING | MAX 1630/35-03 | 5VLOAD = 0A \ J 4 SV LOAD =3A 0.001 0 5 10 15 SUPPLY VOLTAGE (V) IDLE MODE INPUT CURRENT vs. INPUT VOLTAGE ONS = ONS = 5V SKIP =0V NO LOAD 0 5 10 15 20 25 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 20 MAX1630/35-08 30 MINIMUM Vix TO Vout DIFFERENTIAL vs. 5V OUTPUT CURRENT 5V, 3A CIRCUIT Vout > 4.8V f =300kHz 0.01 0.1 1 5V OUTPUT CURRENT (A) MAX1630/35-09 GEGLXVW-OEILXVWNMAX1630-MAX1635 Multi-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers Typical Operating Characteristics (continued) (Circuit of Figure 1, 3A Table 1 components, Ta = +25C, unless otherwise noted.)

MAX1632 Block Diagram 10 MAXIMAMulti-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers Detailed Description The MAX1630 is a dual, BICMOS, switch-mode power- supply controller designed primarily for buck-topology regulators in battery-powered applications where high effi- ciency and low quiescent supply current are critical. Light- load efficiency is enhanced by automatic Idle Mode operation, a variable-frequency pulse-skipping mode that reduces transition and gate-charge losses. Each step- down, power-switching circuit consists of two N-channel MOSFETs, a rectifier, and an LC output filter. The output voltage is the average AC voltage at the switching node, which is regulated by changing the duty cycle of the MOSFET switches. The gate-drive signal to the N-channel high-side MOSFET must exceed the battery voltage, and is provided by a flying-capacitor boost circuit that uses a 100nF capacitor connected to BST_. Devices in the MAX1630 family contain ten major circuit blocks (Figure 2). The two pulse-width modulation (PWM) controllers each consist of a Dual Mode feedback network and multi- plexer, a multi-input PWM comparator, high-side and low-side gate drivers, and logic. MAX1630/MAX1631/ MAX1632 contain fault-protection circuits that monitor the main PWM outputs for undervoltage and overvolt- age. A power-on sequence block controls the power- up timing of the main PWMs and determines whether one or both of the outputs are monitored for undervolt- age faults. The MAX1630/MAX1632/MAX1633/ MAX1635 include a secondary feedback network and 12V linear regulator to generate a 12V output from a coupled-inductor flyback winding. The MAX1631/ MAX1634 have a secondary feedback input (SECFB) instead, which allows a quasi-regulated, adjustable- output, coupled-inductor flyback winding to be attached to either the 3.3V or the 5V main inductor. Bias genera- tor blocks include the 5V IC internal rail (VL) linear regu- lator, 2.5V precision reference, and automatic bootstrap switchover circuit. The PWMs share a common 200kHz/300kHz synchronizable oscillator. These internal IC blocks aren't powered directly from the battery. Instead, the 5V VL linear regulator steps down the battery voltage to supply both VL and the gate drivers. The synchronous-switch gate drivers are directly powered from VL, while the high-side switch gate drivers are indirectly powered from VL via an external diode-capacitor boost circuit. An automatic bootstrap circuit turns off the +5V linear regulator and powers the IC from the 5V PWM output voltage if the output is above 4.5V. PWM Controller Block The two PWM controllers are nearly identical. The only differences are fixed output settings (3.3V vs. 5V), the VL/CSL5 bootstrap switch connected to the +5V PWM, and SECFB. The heart of each current-mode PWM con- troller is a multi-input, open-loop comparator that sums three signals: the output voltage error signal with respect to the reference voltage, the current-sense sig- nal, and the slope compensation ramp (Figure 3). The PWM controller is a direct-summing type, lacking a tra- ditional error amplifier and the phase shift associated with it. This direct-summing configuration approaches ideal cycle-by-cycle control over the output voltage. When SKIP = low, Idle Mode circuitry automatically optimizes efficiency throughout the load current range. Idle Mode dramatically improves light-load efficiency by reducing the effective frequency, which reduces switching losses. It keeps the peak inductor current above 25% of the full current limit in an active cycle, allowing subsequent cycles to be skipped. Idle Mode transitions seamlessly to fixed-frequency PWM opera- tion as load current increases. With SKIP = high, the controller always operates in fixed-frequency PWM mode for lowest noise. Each pulse from the oscillator sets the main PWM latch that turns on the high-side switch for a period determined by the duty factor (approximately VoUT/VIN). As the high-side switch turns off, the synchronous rectifier latch sets; 6Ons later, the low-side switch turns on. The low-side switch stays on until the beginning of the next clock cycle. Table 3.

PWM Controller Detailed Block Diagram 12 MAXIMAMulti-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers In PWM mode, the controller operates as a fixed- frequency current-mode controller where the duty ratio is set by the input/output voltage ratio. The current- mode feedback system regulates the peak inductor current value as a function of the output-voltage error signal. In continuous-conduction mode, the average inductor current is nearly the same as the peak current, so the circuit acts as a switch-mode transconductance amplifier. This pushes the second output LC filter pole, normally found in a duty-factor-controlled (voltage- mode) PWM, to a higher frequency. To preserve inner- loop stability and eliminate regenerative inductor current staircasing, a slope compensation ramp is summed into the main PWM comparator to make the apparent duty factor less than 50%. The MAX1630 family uses a relatively low loop gain, allowing the use of lower-cost output capacitors. The relative gains of the voltage-sense and current-sense inputs are weighted by the values of current sources that bias three differential input stages in the main PWM comparator (Figure 4). The relative gain of the voltage comparator to the current comparator is internally fixed at K = 2:1. The low loop gain results in the 2% typical load-regulation error. The low value of loop gain helps reduce output filter capacitor size and cost by shifting the unity-gain crossover frequency to a lower level. The output filter capacitors (Figure 1, C1 and C2) seta dominant pole in the feedback loop that must roll off the loop gain to unity before encountering the zero intro- duced by the output capacitors parasitic resistance (ESR) (see Design Procedure section). A 60kKHz pole- zero cancellation filter provides additional rolloff above the unity-gain crossover. This internal 60kKHz lowpass compensation filter cancels the zero due to filter capaci- tor ESR. The 60kHz filter is included in the loop in both fixed-output and adjustable-output modes. Synchronous Rectifier Driver (DL) Synchronous rectification reduces conduction losses in the rectifier by shunting the normal Schottky catch diode with a low-resistance MOSFET switch. Also, the synchro- nous rectifier ensures proper start-up of the boost gate- driver circuit. If the synchronous power MOSFETs are omitted for cost or other reasons, replace them with a small-signal MOSFET, such as a 2N7002. If the circuit is operating in continuous-conduction mode, the DL drive waveform is simply the complement of the DH high-side drive waveform (with controlled dead time to prevent cross-conduction or shoot- through). In discontinuous (light-load) mode, the syn- chronous switch is turned off as the inductor current falls through zero.

Main PWM Comparator Block Diagram 13 MAXUM GEGLXVW-OEILXVWNMAX1630-MAX1635 Multi-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers under all operating conditions, including Idle Mode. The SECFB signal further controls the synchronous switch timing in order to improve multiple-output cross- regulation (see Secondary Feedback Regulation Loop section). Internal VL and REF Supplies An internal regulator produces the +5V supply (VL) that powers the PWM controller, logic, reference, and other blocks within the IC. This 5V low-dropout linear regula- tor supplies up to 25mA for external loads, with a reserve of 25mA for supplying gate-drive power. Bypass VL to GND with 4.7pF. Important: Ensure that VL does not exceed 6V. Measure VL with the main output fully loaded. If it is pumped above 5.5V, either excessive boost diode capacitance or excessive ripple at V+ is the probable cause. Use only small-signal diodes for the boost cir- cuit (10mA to 100mA Schottky or 1N4148 are pre- ferred), and bypass V+ to PGND with 4.7pF directly at the package pins. The 2.5V reference (REF) is accurate to +2% over tem- perature, making REF useful as a precision system ref- erence. Bypass REF to GND with 1pF minimum. REF can supply up to 5mA for external loads. (Bypass REF with a minimum 1pF/mA reference load current.) However, if extremely accurate specifications for both the main output voltages and REF are essential, avoid loading REF more than 100HA. Loading REF reduces the main output voltage slightly, because of the refer- ence load-regulation error. When the 5V main output voltage is above 4.5V, an internal P-channel MOSFET switch connects CSL5 to VL, while simultaneously shutting down the VL linear regulator. This action bootstraps the IC, powering the internal circuitry from the output voltage, rather than through a linear regulator from the battery. Bootstrapping reduces power dissipation due to gate charge and quiescent losses by providing that power from a 90%-efficient switch-mode source, rather than from a much less efficient linear regulator. Boost High-Side Gate-Drive Supply (BST3 and BST5) Gate-drive voltage for the high-side N-channel switches is generated by a flying-capacitor boost circuit (Figure 2). The capacitor between BST_ and LX_ is alternately charged from the VL supply and placed par- allel to the high-side MOSFETs gate-source terminals. On start-up, the synchronous rectifier (low-side MOSFET) forces LX_ to OV and charges the boost capacitors to 5V. On the second half-cycle, the SMPS 14 turns on the high-side MOSFET by closing an internal switch between BST_ and DH_. This provides the nec- essary enhancement voltage to turn on the high-side switch, an action that boosts the 5V gate-drive signal above the battery voltage. Ringing at the high-side MOSFET gate (DH3 and DH5) in discontinuous-conduction mode (light loads) is a nat- ural operating condition. It is caused by residual ener- gy in the tank circuit, formed by the inductor and stray capacitance at the switching node, LX. The gate-drive negative rail is referred to LX, so any ringing there is directly coupled to the gate-drive output. Current-Limiting and Current-Sense Inputs (CSH and CSL) The current-limit circuit resets the main PWM latch and turns off the high-side MOSFET switch whenever the voltage difference between CSH and CSL exceeds 100mV. This limiting is effective for both current flow directions, putting the threshold limit at +100mV. The tolerance on the positive current limit is +20%, so the external low-value sense resistor (R1) must be sized for 80mV/IPEAK, where IPEAK is the required peak inductor current to support the full load current, while compo- nents must be designed to withstand continuous cur- rent stresses of 120mV/R1. For breadboarding or for very-high-current applications, it may be useful to wire the current-sense inputs with a twisted pair, rather than PC traces. (This twisted pair needn't be anything special; two pieces of wire-wrap wire twisted together are sufficient.) This reduces the possible noise picked up at CSH_ and CSL_, which can cause unstable switching and reduced output current. The CSL5 input also serves as the ICs bootstrap sup- ply input. Whenever Vcs_s > 4.5V, an internal switch connects CSL5 to VL. Oscillator Frequency and Synchronization (SYNC) The SYNC input controls the oscillator frequency. Low selects 200kHz; high selects 300KHz. SYNC can also be used to synchronize with an external 5V CMOS or TTL clock generator. SYNC has a guaranteed 240kHz to 350kHz capture range. A high-to-low transition on SYNC initiates a new cycle. 300kHz operation optimizes the application circuit for component size and cost. 200kHz operation provides increased efficiency, lower dropout, and improved load-transient response at low input-output voltage dif- ferences (see Low-Voltage Operation section). MAXIMAMulti-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers Shutdown Mode Holding SHDN low puts the IC into its 4uUA shutdown mode. SHDN is logic input with a threshold of about 1V (the VTH of an internal N-channel MOSFET). For auto- matic start-up, bypass SHDN to GND with a 0.01pF capacitor and connect it to V+ through a 220kQ resistor. Power-Up Sequencing and ON/OFF Controls Start-up is controlled by RUN/ON3 and TIME/ONS5 in conjunction with SEQ. With SEQ tied to REF, the two control inputs act as separate ON/OFF controls for each supply. With SEQ tied to VL or GND, RUN/ON3 becomes the master ON/OFF control input and TIME/ON5 becomes a timing pin, with the delay between the two supplies determined by an external capacitor. The delay is approximately 800us/nF. The +3.3V supply powers-up first if SEQ is tied to VL, and the +5V supply is first if SEQ is tied to GND. When driv- ing TIME/ONS as a control input with external logic, always place a resistor (>1kQ) in series with the input. This prevents possible crowbar current due to the inter- nal discharge pull-down transistor, which turns on in standby mode and momentarily at the first power-up or in shutdown mode. RESET Power-Good Voltage Monitor The power-good monitor generates a system RESET sig- nal. At first power-up, RESET is held low until both the 3.3V and 5V SMPS outputs are in regulation. At this point, an internal timer begins counting oscillator pulses, and RESET continues to be held low until 32,000 cycles have elapsed. After this timeout period (107ms at 300kHz or 160ms at 200kHz), RESET is actively pulled up to VL. If SEQ is tied to REF (for separate ON3/ON5 controls), only the 3.3V SMPS is monitoredthe 5V SMPS is ignored. Table 4. Operating Modes Output Undervoltage Shutdown Protection (MAX 1630/MAX1631/MAX 1632) The output undervoltage lockout circuit is similar to foldback current limiting, but employs a timer rather than a variable current limit. Each SMPS has an under- voltage protection circuit that is activated 6144 clock cycles after the SMPS is enabled. If either SMPS output is under 70% of the nominal value, both SMPSs are latched off and their outputs are clamped to ground by the synchronous rectifier MOSFETs (see Output Overvoltage Protection section). They won't restart until SHDN or RUN/ONS is toggled, or until V+ power is cycled below 1V. Note that undervoltage protection can make prototype troubleshooting difficult, since you have only 20ms or 30ms to figure out what might be wrong with the circuit before both SMPSs are latched off. In extreme cases, it may be useful to substitute the MAX1633/MAX1634/MAX1635 into the prototype breadboard until the prototype is working properly. Output Overvoltage Protection (MAX 1630/MAX1631/MAX 1632) Both SMPS outputs are monitored for overvoltage. If either output is more than 7% above the nominal regu- lation point, both low-side gate drivers (DL_) are latched high until SHDN or RUN/ONS is toggled, or until V+ power is cycled below 1V. This action turns on the synchronous rectifiers with 100% duty, in turn rapidly discharging the output capacitors and forcing both SMPS outputs to ground. The DL outputs are also kept high whenever the corresponding SMPS is disabled, and in shutdown if VL is sustained.

X = Dont Care 15 MAXUM GEGLXVW-OEILXVWNMAX1630-MAX1635 Multi-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers Discharging the output capacitor through the main inductor causes the output to momentarily go below GND. Clamp this negative pulse with a back-biased 1A Schottky diode across the output capacitor (Figure 1). To ensure overvoltage protection on initial power-up, connect signal diodes from both output voltages to VL (cathodes to VL) to eliminate the VL power-up delay. This circuitry protects the load from accidental overvolt- age caused by a short-circuit across the high-side power MOSFETs. This scheme relies on the presence of a fuse, in series with the battery, which is blown by the resulting crowbar current. Note that the overvoltage circuitry will interfere with external keep-alive supplies that hold up the outputs (such as lithium backup or hot- swap power supplies); in such cases, the MAX1633, MAX1634, or MAX1635 should be used. Low -Noise Operation (PWM Mode) PWM mode (SKIP = high) minimizes RF and audio interference in noise-sensitive applications (such as hi- fi multimedia-equipped systems), cellular phones, RF communicating computers, and electromagnetic pen- entry systems. See the summary of operating modes in Table 2. SKIP can be driven from an external logic signal. Interference due to switching noise is reduced in PWM mode by ensuring a constant switching frequency, thus concentrating the emissions at a known frequency out- side the system audio or IF bands. Choose an oscillator frequency for which switching frequency harmonics don't overlap a sensitive frequency band. If necessary, synchronize the oscillator to a tight-tolerance external clock generator. To extend the output-voltage-regula- tion range, constant operating frequency is not main- tained under overload or dropout conditions (see Overload and Dropout Operation section.) PWM mode (SKIP = high) forces two changes upon the PWM controllers. First, it disables the minimum-current comparator, ensuring fixed-frequency operation. Second, it changes the detection threshold for reverse- current limit from OmvV to -100mV, allowing the inductor current to reverse at light loads. This results in fixed- frequency operation and continuous inductor-current flow. This eliminates discontinuous-mode inductor ring- ing and improves cross regulation of transformer- coupled multiple-output supplies, particularly in circuits that dont use additional secondary regulation via SECFB or VpD. In most applications, tie SKIP to GND to minimize qui- escent supply current. VL supply current with SKIP high is typically 20mA, depending on external MOSFET gate capacitance and switching losses. 16 Internal Digital Soft-Start Circuit Soft-start allows a gradual increase of the internal cur- rent-limit level at start-up to reduce input surge currents. Both SMPSs contain internal digital soft-start circuits, each controlled by a counter, a digital-to-analog con- verter (DAC), and a current-limit comparator. In shut- down or standby mode, the soft-start counter is reset to zero. When an SMPS is enabled, its counter starts counting oscillator pulses, and the DAC begins incre- menting the comparison voltage applied to the current- limit comparator. The DAC output increases from OmvV to 100mvV in five equal steps as the count increases to 512 clocks. As a result, the main output capacitor charges up relatively slowly. The exact time of the output rise depends on output capacitance and load current, and is typically 1ms with a 300kHz oscillator. Dropout Operation Dropout (low input-output differential operation) is enhanced by stretching the clock pulse width to increase the maximum duty factor. The algorithm fol- lows: If the output voltage (VouUT) drops out of regula- tion without the current limit having been reached, the SMPS skips an off-time period (extending the on-time). At the end of the cycle, if the output is still out of regula- tion, the SMPS skips another off-time period. This action can continue until three off-time periods are skipped, effectively dividing the clock frequency by as much as four. The typical PWM minimum off-time is 300ns, regardless of the operating frequency. Lowering the operating fre- quency raises the maximum duty factor above 98%. Adjustable-Output Feedback (Dual Mode FB) Fixed, preset output voltages are selected when FB_ is connected to ground. Adjusting the main output volt- age with external resistors is simple for any of the MAX1630 family ICs, through resistor dividers connect- ed to FB3 and FB5 (Figure 2). Calculate the output volt- age with the following formula: Vout = VREF (1 + R1 / R2) where VREF = 2.5V nominal. The nominal output should be set approximately 1% or 2% high to make up for the MAX1630s -2% typical load-regulation error. For example, if designing for a 3.0V output, use a resistor ratio that results in a nominal output voltage of 3.05V. This slight offsetting gives the best possible accuracy. Recommended normal values for R2 range from 5kQ to 100kQ. To achieve a 2.5V nominal output, simply connect FB_ directly to CSL_. MAXIMAMulti-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers Remote output-voltage sensing, while not possible in fixed-output mode due to the combined nature of the voltage-sense and current-sense inputs (CSL3 and CSL5), is easy to do in adjustable mode by using the top of the external resistor divider as the remote sense point. When using adjustable mode, it is a good idea to always set the 3.3V output to a lower voltage than the SV output. The 3.3V outout must always be less than VL, so that the voltage on CSH3 and CSL3 is within the common-mode range of the current-sense inputs. While VL is nominally 5V, it can be as low as 4.7V when lin- early regulating, and as low as 4.2V when automatically bootstrapped to CSH5. Secondary Feedback Regulation Loop (SECFB or Vpp) A flyback-winding control loop regulates a secondary winding output, improving cross-regulation when the primary output is lightly loaded or when there is a low input-output differential voltage. If VDp or SECFB falls below its regulation threshold, the low-side switch is turned on for an extra ips. This reverses the inductor (primary) current, pulling current from the output filter capacitor and causing the flyback transformer to oper- ate in forward mode. The low impedance presented by the transformer secondary in forward mode dumps cur- rent into the secondary output, charging up the sec- ondary capacitor and bringing Vpp or SECFB back into regulation. The secondary feedback loop does not improve secondary output accuracy in normal flyback mode, where the main (primary) output is heavily loaded. In this condition, secondary output accuracy is determined by the secondary rectifier drop, transformer turns ratio, and accuracy of the main output voltage. A linear post-regulator may still be needed to meet strict output-accuracy specifications. Devices with a 12OUT linear regulator have a Vpp pin that regulates at a fixed 13.5V, set by an internal resis- tor divider. The MAX1631/MAX1634 have an adjustable secondary output voltage set by an external resistor divider on SECFB (Figure 5). Ordinarily, the secondary regulation point is set 5% to 10% below the voltage nor- mally produced by the flyback effect. For example, if the output voltage as determined by turns ratio is 15V, set the feedback resistor ratio to produce 13.5V. Otherwise, the SECFB one-shot might be triggered unintentionally, unnecessarily increasing supply current and output noise. SECFB 4-SHOT tb | 7A POSITIVE 2.5V REE SECONDARY OUTPUT DH.

Typically, greater current is available at the expense of output accuracy. If an accurate output of more than 120mA is needed, an external pass tran- 17 MAXUM GEGLXVW-OEILXVWNMAX1630-MAX1635 Multi-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers sistor can be added. Figure 6s circuit delivers more than 200mA. Total output current is constrained by the V+ input voltage and the transformer primary load (see Maximum 15V Vpp Output Current vs. Supply Voltage graphs in the Typical Operating Characteristics). Design Procedure The three predesigned 3V/5V standard application cir- cuits (Figure 1 and Table 1) contain ready-to-use solu- tions for common application needs. Also, two standard flyback transformer circuits support the 12OUT linear regulator in the Applications Information section. Use the following design procedure to optimize these basic schematics for different voltage or current require- ments. But before beginning a design, firmly establish the following: Maximum input (battery) voltage, VIN(MAX). This value should include the worst-case conditions, such as no-load operation when a battery charger or AC adapter is connected but no battery is installed. VIN(MAX) must not exceed 30V. Minimum input (battery) voltage, VIN(MIN). This should be taken at full load under the lowest battery conditions. If VIN(MIN) is less than 4.2V, use an external circuit to externally hold VL above the VL undervoltage lockout threshold. If the minimum input-output differ- ence is less than 1.5V, the filter capacitance required to maintain good AC load regulation increases (see Low- Voltage Operation section). Inductor Value The exact inductor value isn't critical and can be freely adjusted to make trade-offs between size, cost, and efficiency. Lower inductor values minimize size and cost, but reduce efficiency due to higher peak-current levels. The smallest inductor is achieved by lowering the inductance until the circuit operates at the border between continuous and discontinuous mode. Further reducing the inductor value below this crossover point results in discontinuous-conduction operation even at full load. This helps lower output filter capacitance requirements, but efficiency suffers due to high |@R losses. On the other hand, higher inductor values mean greater efficiency, but resistive losses due to extra wire turns will eventually exceed the benefit gained from lower peak-current levels. Also, high inductor values can affect load-transient response (see the VsaG equa- tion in the Low-Voltage Operation section). The equa- tions that follow are for continuous-conduction operation, since the MAX1630 family is intended mainly 18 for high-efficiency, battery-powered applications. See Appendix A in Maxims Battery Management and DC- DC Converter Circuit Collection for crossover-point and discontinuous-mode equations. Discontinuous conduc- tion doesnt affect normal Idle Mode operation. Three key inductor parameters must be specified: inductance value (L), peak current (IPEAK), and DC resistance (Rpc). The following equation includes a constant, LIR, which is the ratio of inductor peak-to- peak AC current to DC load current. A higher LIR value allows smaller inductance, but results in higher losses and higher ripple. A good compromise between size and losses is found at a 30% ripple-current to load- current ratio (LIR = 0.3), which corresponds to a peak inductor current 1.15 times higher than the DC load current. VouT(Vin(max) - Vout) VIN(MAX) X #X lout x LIR where: f = switching frequency, normally 200kHz or 300kKHz IOUT = maximum DC load current LIR = ratio of AC to DC inductor current, typi- cally 0.3; should be selected for >0.15 The nominal peak inductor current at full load is 1.15 x lout if the above equation is used; otherwise, the peak current can be calculated by: Vout (Vin(mAX) - Vout) IPEAK = 'LloaD+ST4y1 x VINMAX) The inductors DC resistance should be low enough that Rpc x IPEAK < 100mV, as it is a key parameter for effi- ciency performance. If a standard off-the-shelf inductor is not available, choose a core with an LI@ rating greater than L x IPEAK2 and wind it with the largest-diameter wire that fits the winding area. For 300kHz applications, ferrite core material is strongly preferred; for 200kHz applications, Kool-Mu (aluminum alloy) or even pow- dered iron is acceptable. If light-load efficiency is unim- portant (in desktop PC applications, for example), then low-permeability iron-powder cores, such as the Micrometals type found in Pulse Engineerings 2.1pH PE-53680, may be acceptable even at 300kHz. For high-current applications, shielded-core geometries, such as toroidal or pot core, help keep noise, EMI, and switching-waveform jitter low.

MAXIMAMulti-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers Current-Sense Resistor Value The current-sense resistor value is calculated according to the worst-case-low current-limit threshold voltage (from the Electrical Characteristics table) and the peak inductor current: 80mV IPEAK RSENSE = Use IPEAK from the second equation in the Inductor Value section Use the calculated value of RSENSE to size the MOSFET switches and specify inductor saturation-current ratings according to the worst-case high-current-limit threshold voltage: 120mV IPEAK(MAX) = Reense Low-inductance resistors, such as surface-mount metal-film, are recommended. Input Capacitor Value Connect low-ESR bulk capacitors and small ceramic capacitors (0.1pF) directly to the drains on the high- side MOSFETs. The bulk input filter capacitor is usually selected according to input ripple current requirements and voltage rating, rather than capacitor value. Electrolytic capacitors with low enough effective series resistance (ESR) to meet the ripple current requirement invariably have sufficient capacitance values. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors, such as Sanyo OS-CON or Nichicon PL, are superior to tantalum types, which carry the risk of power-up surge-current failure, especially when connecting to robust AC adapters or low-impedance batteries. RMS input ripple current (IRMS) is determined by the input voltage and load current, with the worst case occurring at VIN = 2 x VOUT: Vout (Vin - YouT) IRMS = ILOAD X iN Therefore, when Vin is 2 x VouT: ILOAD | = RMS 9 Bypassing V+ Bypass the V+ input with a 4.7pF tantalum capacitor paralleled with a 0.1pF ceramic capacitor, close to the IC. A 10Q series resistor to VIN is also recommended. Bypassing VL Bypass the VL output with a 4.7yF tantalum capacitor paralleled with a 0.1pF ceramic capacitor, close to the device. Output Filter Capacitor Value The output filter capacitor values are generally deter- mined by the ESR and voltage rating requirements, rather than actual capacitance requirements for loop stability. In other words, the low-ESR electrolytic capacitor that meets the ESR requirement usually has more output capaci- tance than is required for AC stability. Use only special- ized low-ESR capacitors intended for switching-regulator applications, such as AVX TPS, Sprague 595D, Sanyo OS-CON, or Nichicon PL series. To ensure stability, the capacitor must meet both minimum capacitance and maximum ESR values as given in the following equations: Veer (1 + Vout / Vincmin)y) Vout X Rsense * f Rsense Xx Vout VREF Court > ResR < (can be multiplied by 1.5; see text below) These equations are worst case, with 45 degrees of phase margin to ensure jitter-free, fixed-frequency operation and provide a nicely damped output response for zero to full-load step changes. Some cost- conscious designers may wish to bend these rules with less-expensive capacitors, particularly if the load lacks large step changes. This practice is tolerable if some bench testing over temperature is done to verify acceptable noise and transient response. No well-defined boundary exists between stable and unstable operation. As phase margin is reduced, the first symptom is a bit of timing jitter, which shows up as blurred edges in the switching waveforms where the scope won't quite sync up. Technically speaking, this jitter (usually harmless) is unstable operation, since the duty factor varies slightly. As capacitors with higher ESRs are used, the jitter becomes more pronounced, and the load-transient output voltage waveform starts looking ragged at the edges. Eventually, the load-tran- sient waveform has enough ringing on it that the peak noise levels exceed the allowable output voltage toler- ance. Note that even with zero phase margin and gross instability present, the output voltage noise never gets much worse than IPEAK x RESsR (under constant loads). Designers of RF communicators or other noise-sensi- tive analog equipment should be conservative and stay within the guidelines. Designers of notebook computers and similar commercial-temperature-range digital 19 MAXUM GEGLXVW-OEILXVWNMAX1630-MAX1635 Multi-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers systems can multiply the RESR value by a factor of 1.5 without hurting stability or transient response. The output voltage ripple is usually dominated by the filter capacitors ESR, and can be approximated as IRIPPLE X Resr. There is also a capacitive term, so the full equation for ripple in continuous-conduction mode iS VNOISE (p-p) = IRIPPLE X [RESR + 1/(2 x a xt x CouT)]. In Idle Mode, the inductor current becomes discontinuous, with high peaks and widely spaced pulses, so the noise can actually be higher at light load (compared to full load). In Idle Mode, calculate the out- put ripple as follows: 0.02 x Resp + RSENSE 0.0003 x Lx [1 / Vout +1 / (Min - Your) 2 VNOISE(p-p) = (RgENSE) X CouT Transformer Design (for Auxiliary Outputs Only) Buck-plus-flyback applications, sometimes called cou- pled-inductor topologies, need a transformer to gener- ate multiple output voltages. Performing the basic electrical design is a simple task of calculating turns ratios and adding the power delivered to the secondary to calculate the current-sense resistor and primary inductance. However, extremes of low input-output dif- ferentials, widely different output loading levels, and high turns ratios can complicate the design due to par- asitic transformer parameters such as interwinding capacitance, secondary resistance, and leakage inductance. For examples of what is possible with real- world transformers, see the Maximum Secondary Current vs. Input Voltage graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics section. Power from the main and secondary outputs is com- bined to get an equivalent current referred to the main output voltage (see the Inductor Value section for para- meter definitions). Set the current-sense resistor resis- tor value at 80mV / ITOTAL. PTOTAL = The sum of the output power from all outputs ITOTAL = PTOTAL / VoUT = The equivalent output cur- rent referred to VoUT Liprimary) = VouT(Vin(MAX) - Vout) pamenyy = Vin(MAX) Xf X Iota x LIR Vsec_+ VEwp VouT(MIN) + VaecT + VSENSE Turns RatioN = 20 where: VsEc = the minimum required rectified sec- ondary output voltage VFwp = the forward drop across the secondary rectifier VOUT(MIN) = the minimum value of the main output voltage (from the Electrical Characteristics) VRECT = the on-state voltage drop across the synchronous rectifier MOSFET VSENSE = the voltage drop across the sense resistor In positive-output applications, the transformer sec- ondary return is often referred to the main output volt- age, rather than to ground, to reduce the needed turns ratio. In this case, the main output voltage must first be subtracted from the secondary voltage to obtain VSEc. Selecting Other Components MOSFET Switches The high-current N-channel MOSFETs must be logic-level types with guaranteed on-resistance specifications at Vas = 4.5V. Lower gate threshold specifications are bet- ter (i.e., 2V max rather than 3V max). Drain-source break- down voltage ratings must at least equal the maximum input voltage, preferably with a 20% derating factor. The best MOSFETs will have the lowest on-resistance per nanocoulomb of gate charge. Multiplying Ros(On) x Qq provides a good figure for comparing various MOSFETs. Newer MOSFET process technologies with dense cell structures generally perform best. The internal gate drivers tolerate >100nC total gate charge, but 70nC is a more practical upper limit to maintain best switching times. In high-current applications, MOSFET package power dissipation often becomes a dominant design factor. l2R power losses are the greatest heat contributor for both high-side and low-side MOSFETs. I@R losses are distributed between Q1 and @2 according to duty fac- tor (see the following equations). Generally, switching losses affect only the upper MOSFET, since the Schottky rectifier clamps the switching node in most cases before the synchronous rectifier turns on. Gate- charge losses are dissipated by the driver and dont heat the MOSFET. Calculate the temperature rise according to package thermal-resistance specifications to ensure that both MOSFETs are within their maximum junction temperature at high ambient temperature. The worst-case dissipation for the high-side MOSFET occurs at both extremes of input voltage, and the worst-case dissipation for the low-side MOSFET occurs at maximum input voltage.

It may need to be oversized to tolerate a con- tinuous DC short circuit. During short circuit, the MAX1630/MAX1631/MAX1632s output undervoltage shutdown protects the synchronous rectifier under out- put short-circuit conditions. To reduce EMI, add a0.1pF ceramic capacitor from the high-side switch drain to the low-side switch source. Rectifier Clamp Diode The rectifier is a clamp across the low-side MOSFET that catches the negative inductor swing during the 60ns dead time between turning one MOSFET off and each low-side MOSFET on. The latest generations of MOSFETs incorporate a high-speed silicon body diode, which serves as an adequate clamp diode if efficiency is not of primary importance. A Schottky diode can be placed in parallel with the body diode to reduce the for- ward voltage drop, typically improving efficiency 1% to 2%. Use a diode with a DC current rating equal to one- third of the load current; for example, use an MBR0530 (500mA-rated) type for loads up to 1.5A, a 1N5819 type for loads up to 3A, or a 1N5822 type for loads up to 10A. The rectifiers rated reverse breakdown voltage must be at least equal to the maximum input voltage, preferably with a 20% derating factor. Boost-Supply Diode D2 A signal diode such as a 1N4148 works well in most applications. If the input voltage can go below +6V, use a small (20mA) Schottky diode for slightly improved efficiency and dropout characteristics. Dont use large power diodes, such as 1N5817 or 1N4001, since high junction capacitance can pump up VL to excessive voltages. Rectifier Diode D3 (Transformer Secondary Diode) The secondary diode in coupled-inductor applications must withstand flyback voltages greater than 60V, which usually rules out most Schottky rectifiers. Common silicon rectifiers, such as the 1N4001, are also prohibited because they are too slow. This often makes fast silicon rectifiers such as the MURS120 the only choice. The flyback voltage across the rectifier is relat- ed to the Vin - VouT difference, according to the trans- former turns ratio: VeLyBAcK = Vsec + (Vin - Vout) XN where: N = the transformer turns ratio SEC/PRI VsEc = the maximum secondary DC output voltage VouT = the primary (main) output voltage Subtract the main output voltage (VouT) from VFLYBACK in this equation if the secondary winding is returned to VouT and not to ground. The diode reverse breakdown rating must also accommodate any ringing due to leak- age inductance. D3s current rating should be at least twice the DC load current on the secondary output. Low-Voltage Operation Low input voltages and low input-output differential voltages each require extra care in their design. Low absolute input voltages can cause the VL linear regula- tor to enter dropout and eventually shut itself off. Low input voltages relative to the output (low VIN-VouT dif- ferential) can cause bad load regulation in multi-output flyback applications (see the design equations in the Transformer Design section). Also, low VIN-VouT differ- entials can also cause the output voltage to sag when the load current changes abruptly. The amplitude of the sag is a function of inductor value and maximum duty factor (an Electrical Characteristics parameter, 98% guaranteed over temperature at f = 200kHz), as follows: (Istep)* x L 2 X Court X (Vincmax) X Daax - Vout) VsaG = The cure for low-voltage sag is to increase the output capacitors value. For example, at VIN = +5.5V, VOUT = +5V, L = 10UH, f = 200KHz, ISTEP = 3A, a total capaci- tance of 660LF keeps the sag less than 200mV. Note that only the capacitance requirement increases, and the ESR requirements dont change. Therefore, the added capacitance can be supplied by a low-cost bulk capacitor in parallel with the normal low-ESR capacitor. 21 MAXUM GEGLXVW-OEILXVWNMAX1630-MAX1635 Multi-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers Table 5.

Applications Information Heavy-Load Efficiency Considerations The major efficiency-loss mechanisms under loads are, in the usual order of importance: e P(IFR) = IPR losses e P(tran) = transition losses e P(gate) = gate-charge losses e P(diode) = diode-conduction losses ( ( U e P(cap) = capacitor ESR losses e P(IC) = losses due to the ICs operating supply supply current Inductor core losses are fairly low at heavy loads because the inductors AC current component is small. Therefore, they aren't accounted for in this analysis. Ferrite cores are preferred, especially at 300kHz, but powdered cores, such as Kool-Mu, can work well. Efficiency = Poyt / Ry x 100% = Pout / (Pout + Protac) x 100% Prota = P(PR) + P(tran) + P(gate) + P(diode) + P(cap) + P(IC) P = (PR) = (Loap)* x (Roc + Ros(on) + Rsense) 22 where Rpc is the DC resistance of the coil, RDS(ON) is the MOSFET on-resistance, and RsensE is the current- sense resistor value. The Rps(ON) term assumes identi- cal MOSFETs for the high-side and low-side switches, because they time-share the inductor current. If the MOSFETs aren't identical, their losses can be estimat- ed by averaging the losses according to duty factor. PD(tran) = transition loss = Vn X lLoap Xf x Xx [(Mn x Crss/ gate) + 20ns| where Crss is the reverse transfer capacitance of the high-side MOSFET (a data-sheet parameter), IGATE is the DH gate-driver peak output current (1.5A typical), and 20ns is the rise/fall time of the DH driver (20ns typical). P(gate) = qGxfx VL where VL is the internal-logic-supply voltage (+5V), and qG is the sum of the gate-charge values for low-side and high- side switches. For matched MOSFETs, qG is twice the data-sheet value of an individual MOSFET. If VouT is set to less than 4.5V, replace VL in this equation with VBATT. In this case, efficiency can be improved by connecting VL to an efficient 5V source, such as the system +5V supply. P(diode)= diode- conduction losses = ILoap X Vewn X tp xf MAXIMAMulti-Output, Low-Noise Power-Supply Controllers for Notebook Computers where tp is the diode-conduction time (120ns typical) and Vewp is the forward voltage of the diode. This power is dissipated in the MOSFET body diode if no external Schottky diode is used. 2 P(cap) = input capacitor ESR loss = (Ipys)* x Resa where IRMS is the input ripple current as calculated in the Design Procedure and Input Capacitor Value sections. Light-Load Efficiency Considerations Under light loads, the PWM operates in discontinuous mode, where the inductor current discharges to zero at some point during the switching cycle. This makes the inductor current's AC component high compared to the load current, which increases core losses and |?R loss- es in the output filter capacitors. For best light-load effi- ciency, use MOSFETs with moderate gate-charge levels, and use ferrite, MPP, or other low-loss core material. Avoid powdered-iron cores; even Kool-Mu (aluminum alloy) is not as good as ferrite. PC Board Layout Considerations Good PC board layout is required in order to achieve specified noise, efficiency, and stability performance. The PC board layout artist must be given explicit instructions, preferably a pencil sketch showing the placement of power-switching components and high- current routing. See the PC board layout in the MAX1630 Evaluation Kit manual for examples. A ground plane is essential for optimum performance. In most applications, the circuit will be located on a mullti- layer board, and full use of the four or more copper lay- ers is recommended. Use the top layer for high-current connections, the bottom layer for quiet connections (REF, SS, GND), and the inner layers for an uninterrupt- ed ground plane. Use the following step-by-step guide: 1) Place the high-power components (Figure1, C1, C3, Q1, Q2, D1, L1, and R11) first, with any grounded connections adjacent. Priority 1: Minimize current-sense resistor trace lengths and ensure accurate current sensing with Kelvin connections (Figure 7). Priority 2: Minimize ground trace lengths in the high-current paths (discussed below). Priority 3: Minimize other trace lengths in the high- current paths. Use >5mm-wide traces CIN to high-side MOSFET drain: 10mm max length Rectifier diode cathode to low-side MOSFET: 5mm max length LX node (MOSFETs, rectifier cathode, inductor): 15mm max length Ideally, surface-mount power components are butted up to one another with their ground terminals almost touching. These high-current grounds are then con- nected to each other with a wide filled zone of top-layer copper so they dont go through vias. The resulting top- layer sub-ground-plane is connected to the normal inner-layer ground plane at the output ground termi- nals, which ensures that the ICs analog ground is sensing at the supplys output terminals without interfer- ence from IR drops and ground noise. Other high- current paths should also be minimized, but focusing primarily on short ground and current-sense con- nections eliminates about 90% of all PC board lay- out problems (see the PC board layouts in the MAX1630 Evaluation Kit manual for examples). 2) Place the IC and signal components. Keep the main switching nodes (LX nodes) away from sensitive analog components (current-sense traces and REF capacitor). Place the IC and analog components on the opposite side of the board from the power- switching node. Important: the IC must be no far- ther than 10mm from the current-sense resistors. Keep the gate-drive traces (DH_, DL_, and BST_) shorter than 20mm and route them away from CSH_, CSL_, and REF. 3) Use a single-point star ground where the input ground trace, power ground (sub-ground-plane), and normal ground plane meet at the supplys out- put ground terminal. Connect both IC ground pins and all IC bypass capacitors to the normal ground plane. HIGH CURRENT PATH MAXIM MAX1630 Figure 7.
