PRODUCT DATASHEET AAT4621 SmartSwitchTM PC Card Current Limit Interface and Capacitor Charger General Description Features The AAT4621 SmartSwitch is a current limited P-channel MOSFET power switch designed for high-side loadswitching applications in PC Card GSM/GPRS/3G modem cards. Used in conjunction with a super capacitor, the AAT4621 will ensure that the power ratings of the PCMCIA host are not exceeded at any time. Featuring two independent, programmable current limits and a power loop, the AAT4621 can ensure that the super capacitor can be charged without exceeding PCMCIA specifications. The current limit is set by two external resistors allowing a 10% current limit accuracy over the normal operating temperature range. The switch can be controlled from either of the two enable inputs and in the off condition will block currents in both directions. The AAT4621 also incorporates a System READY function which can advise the system that the super capacitor is fully charged and ready for use. Adjustable hysteresis is provided with the addition of an external resistor. The quiescent supply current is typically a low 40A. In shutdown mode, the supply current decreases to less than 1A. * VIN Range: 3.0V to 5.5V * Dual Independent Current Limits 75mA to 1200mA 10% Current Accuracy 20C Temperature Band * Reverse Current Blocking Protection * Power Loop * Low Quiescent Current 40A Typical 1.0A Max with Switch Off * 65m Typical RDS(ON) at 3V * Only 1.4V Needed for Enable Control Pin * System READY Output with Externally Programmable Hysteresis * Under-Voltage Lockout * Temperature Range: -40 to 85C * 14-Pin TDFN33 Package The AAT4621 is available in a thermally enhanced, Pb-free 14-pin TDFN33 package and is specified over the -40C to 85C temperature range.

The current limit control is combined with an over temperature thermal limit and power loop circuit to provide a comprehensive system to protect the load switch and its supply from load conditions which exceed the supply specifications. The AAT4621 has been designed specifically to provide the interface between a PCMCIA host and PC card where a super capacitor has been used to "average out" high pulse currents which would otherwise exceed the PCMCIA/ Express Card power specifications. e.g. GSM/ GPRS modem cards, where pulse currents during transmit signals can exceed the 1A maximum specification (1.3A in the case of Express Card). The current limit and over temperature circuits act independently. The device current limit is activated when the output load current exceeds an internal threshold level. There are two internal current limits which are enabled independently. The current limit threshold in each case is determined by external resistors connected between the two SET pins and ground. The minimum current limit 4621.2009.08.1.4 ISETL ISETU threshold is specified by ILIM(MIN). If the load condition maintains the device in current limit and the chip temperature reaches a critical point, then an internal power loop will reduce the current to a safe level. Connecting ISETU to ground disables the current limit protection allowing a low impedance path to the host VCC. The load switch is turned off by applying a logic high level to both of the EN pins. When both EN IL and EN IU are selected ISETU will be selected. The EN function has logic level thresholds that allow the AAT4621 to be TTL compatible and may also be controlled by 2.5V to 5.0V CMOS circuits. The voltage level applied to the EN pins should not exceed the input supply level present on the VCC pin. The AAT4621 typically consumes 40A when operating, when off, the device draws less then 1A. In the off state, current is prevented from flowing between the input and output. Under-voltage lockout circuitry ensures that the VCC supply is high enough for correct operation of the IC. Also included is a System Ready function which will be activated when the capacitor voltage is charged and the load is permitted to take current. For automatic functionality, this pin can be directly connected to the EN IU pin. An external resistor is provided to add hysteresis to this function. www.analogictech.com 9 PRODUCT DATASHEET AAT4621 SmartSwitchTM PC Card Current Limit Interface and Capacitor Charger Application Information ISETU and ISETL Current Limit Set The AAT4621 current limit is set at two different levels. Resistors from ISETL and ISETU set the lower and upper current limit levels respectively. The ISETL and ISETU nodes operate within a window of 0.75V to 1.5V for resistor values ranging from 93.75 to 1.5M. Resistor values outside this range are not recommended. The ISETL and ISETU source current varies with the resistor value used according to Table 1. To determine the resulting current limit multiply the RSETU or RSETL node voltage times the gain in Table 1. Note that the voltage at the node varies from 0.75V to 1.5V and the current limit gain varies depending on the resistor value used.

System Ready Hysteresis (RHYS) and System Ready (RDY) In internal comparator senses the output voltage and delivers a ready signal to the external micro controller when the output voltage reaches 98% of the final value (VCC). The comparator hysteresis is programmed by a resistor from the RHYS pin to ground. The RHYS voltage determines the hysteresis voltage and is equal to the RHYS source current (1A) times the RHYS resistance. If the set pin is open circuit or allowed to exceed 2V, all power devices are disabled and the input is disconnected from the output. Shorting the set pin to GND enables all power devices and shorts the VCC to the output pin with no current limit. VHYST = RHYS * 1A = 200k * 1A = 0.2V To activate the upper current level (RSETU) pull EN IU low. To activate the lower current level (RSETL) pull EN IL low. If both EN IU and EN IL are pulled low the EN IU current limit level (RSETU) will be selected. The system ready pin (RDY) is an open drain output that switches low when the output voltage reaches 98% of the input voltage. It requires an external pull up resistor tied to the input voltage with a typical value of 100k. 1.2 Power Loop ILOAD Limit (A) 1.0 0.8 0.6 0.4 0.2 0.0 0.10 0.30 0.50 0.70 0.90 1.10 1.30 RSETU and RSETL (M ) Figure 1: Calculated Current Limit RSET Characteristic. 1.50 The AAT4621 power loop limits the load current in the event that the device power dissipation becomes excessive. The AAT4621 power loop regulates the die temperature to 110C, decreasing the load current in increments of 1/32 of the current limit set point when the die temperature reaches 110C. When the die temperature exceeds 110C it decreases the load current by 1/32 of the current limit set point. If die temperature is less than 110C, it increases the load current in increments of 1/32 of the current limit set point until the set current limit point is reached or the die temperature exceeds 110C. The delay time between die temperature measurements varies depending on the load current limit set point. The delay ranges from 0.5ms for a 75mA current limit set point to 4ms for a 1.2A current limit set point. 10 www.analogictech.com 4621.2009.08.1.4 PRODUCT DATASHEET AAT4621 SmartSwitchTM PC Card Current Limit Interface and Capacitor Charger For the condition where there is no current limit set point (shorting RSETU or RSETL to ground) the soft start increments the current limit is 1/32 steps of 1.2A until the current reaches 1.2A, at which point the power MOSFET turns on fully. At this point, the current is limited by the RDS(ON) of the power MOSFET and other series resistance. The Power Loop and Over-Temperature Loop then takes control to limit the current until the output voltage has fully charged. Once the AAT4621 has fully charged the supercap, the soft start circuit is disabled. The soft start function will only reactivate under the following conditions: 1. 2. 3. 4. Reverse Current Blocking Over-Temperature Protection If the die temperature rate of rise is fast enough to exceed the power loop regulated temperature, overtemperature shutdown disables the device. The overtemperature threshold is 145C. After over-temperature shutdown, soft start is initiated once the die temperature drops to 130C. Short Circuit Protection The series pass power MOSFET turns off completely after the output has charged to within 18mV of the input voltage. This protects the device in the event where a short circuit is applied to the output. After applying a short circuit or heavy load to the output, which causes the output to sink below the 18mV threshold plus some hysteresis, the current will immediately attempt to slew from zero to the final programmed value. The device will continue to output the current limit as long as the output is VIN 18mV or until the die temperature reaches 110C. If temperature foldback occurs, then the power loop will become active. An internal comparator disables the internal pass transistor when the input voltage is less than the output voltage blocking any reverse current from the output to the input. Evaluation Board The AAT4621 evaluation board schematic is shown in Figure 2. The AAT4621 PCB layout is shown in Figures 3 and 4. Layout Guidance When laying out the PC board, the following layout guideline should be followed to ensure proper operation of the AAT4621: 1. 2. Under-Voltage Shutdown Under-voltage lockout enables the device at 2.7V typical with 100mV of hysteresis. The maximum UVLO level is 3.0V. 3. Digitally Programmed Soft Start Current Limit 4. At turn on, the digital soft start increases the load current in discrete levels equal to 1/32 of the final programmed current limit set point from zero to the final programmed current limit level. 4621.2009.08.1.4 The power source or enable is cycled off and back on. The thermal shutdown is activated Switching from ENU to ENL or vice versa or Following an over-current event, e.g. a hard output short circuit. The exposed pad EP must be reliably soldered to GND. The exposed thermal pad should be connected to the board ground plane and Pin 12. The ground plane should include a large exposed copper pad under the package with VIAs to all board layers for thermal dissipation. The power traces, including GND traces and the VIN trace should be kept short, direct and wide to allow large current flow. Use several via pads when routing between layers. The input capacitors (C1) should be connected as close as possible to VCC (Pins 8, 9, 10, 11) and GND (Pin 12) to get good power filtering. The output capacitor (C2) should be connected as close as possible to OUT (Pins 5, 6, 7) and GND (Pin 12) to get good power filtering as the device will recharge the Supercap when the output voltage level sensed on the OUT pin is reduced by approximately 18-20mV below its input voltage (VCC) level. www.analogictech.com 11 PRODUCT DATASHEET AAT4621 SmartSwitchTM PC Card Current Limit Interface and Capacitor Charger J1 VCC VCC EN IU EN IU R1 1.5K D1 P1 RDY LED RED RDY U1 J2 VCC 14 EN IL EN IL 13 12 VCC P2 VCC P4 GND 11 TB1 C1 10F 10 9 IN 8 EN IU RDY EN IL RHYS GND ISETU VCC ISETL VCC OUT VCC OUT VCC OUT AAT 4621_TDFN 33-14 1 2 RHYS 3 ISETU 4 ISETL R2 200K R3 1M 5 6 R4 120K P3 OUT 7 R5 47.5K + C2 10F + SC1 0.55F R6 47.5K OUT TB 2 OUT P5 GND Figure 2: AAT4621 Evaluation Board Schematic.
