Description
The STw4141 is a single coil dual output
synchronous step down DC/DC converter that
requires only four standard e xternal components.
It operates at a fixed 900 kHz switching frequency
in PWM mode. The device can operate in PFM
mode to maintain high efficiency over the full
range of output currents.
The STw4141 application requires a very small
PCB area and offers a very efficient, accurate,
space and cost saving solution to fulfill the
requirements of digital baseband or multimedia
processor supply (CORE & I/O).

2.5 Soft start
To avoid spikes on battery during STw4141 start-up sequence, a smooth start-up is
implemented. Reference voltage grows up less than 600 µs until it achieves is final target.
Therefore, STw4141 start up is smooth and secure for the overall mobile phone.

3 Functional description
Introduction
The STw4141 is an easy to use, single coil dual outputs step down DC/DC converter
optimized to supply low-voltage to CPUs or DSPs in cell phones and other miniature devices
powered by single cell lithium-ion or 3 cell NiMH/NiCd batteries. It provides two different
output v oltages with high efficiency operation in a wide range of output currents. The device
offers high DC voltage regulation accuracy and load transient response to satisfy
demanding processor core supply. The converter is based on voltage mode buck
archi tec ture usi ng PWM and PF M operat io n modes.
At light load currents, the device can operate in PFM mode to maintain high efficiency over
the entire load current range. Switching between PWM and PFM modes can be done
automatically or can be forced by external pins (A UTO and MODE/SYNC). Externally
synchronized or fixed frequency (internal oscillator) PWM mode offers full output current
capability while minimizing interference to sensitive RF and data acquisition circuits.
PWM and PFM mode operation
PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) mode is intended for normal load to high load currents.
Energy is delivered to the load with an accurate and defined frequency of 900 kHz.
PFM (Pulse Frequency Modulation) mode is intended for low load currents to maintain high
effici enc y co nversion.
Forced mode: When AUTO pin is LOW, the operating mode is selectable by the user itself.
It means that system controls the behavior of the STw4141 according to processor needs.
STw4141 is switched from PWM to PFM mode using MODE/SYNC pin (refer to
Section 4.1
).
Automatic PWM / PFM switch: When AUTO pin is HIGH, the operating mode is directly
controlled by internal digital circuit according to processor needs. The device switches from
PWM to PFM by itself if sum of output currents is lower than appro ximately 100 mA during at
least 16 clock cycles. The device can be forced to PWM mode connecting MODE/SYNC to
HIGH level. (see
Section 2.8
and
Section 2.9
).
Current limiter
This protection limits the current flowing through coil. As soon as ILIM is detected, the duty
cycle is terminated and prevents the coil current against rising above peak current limit.
There is no reset of device.
Short circuit protection
It protects the device against short-circuit at output terminals. When one or both output
voltages are decreased by 0.7 V below their nominal output values the device enters into
reset followed by soft start sequence.
Thermal shutdown protection
Thermal shutdown protects the device against damage due to overheating when maximum
operating junction temperature is exceeded. The device is kept in reset until junction
temperature decreases by 25°C approximately.

4.2 Automatic PWM/PFM mode
This user mode is designed to allow STw4141 to switch automatically between PWM and
PFM modes. This feature improves the application efficiency because STw4141 enters in
PFM mode according to application processor current consumption.
Figure 12. Automatic PWM/PFM switch schematic example
4.3 User selected PWM/PFM mode
STw4141 PWM/PFM mode can also be controlled by the application processor . This feature
is accessible through MODE/SYNC pin state. It is useful to users who want to use STw4141
with the modem digital processor. Therefore, MODE/SYNC pin is connected to SLEEP
mobile phone signal.

4.4 External clock synchronization
Figure 14. Application using external clock synchronization
4.5 Checking transient response versus external components
The regulator loop response can be checked by looking at the load transient response.
Switching regulators take several cycles to respond to a step in load current. When a load
step oc curs, V OUT is immediately shifted by an amount equal to ILOAD x ESR, where ESR is
the equivalent series resistance of COUT. ILOAD also begins to charge or discharge COUT
generating a feedback error signal used by the regulator to return VOUT to its steady-state
value. In order to improve the transient response, it is better to use two 10 µF ceramic
capacitors on each output to reduce ESR.

4.6.2 Input capacitor (CIN selection)
Input capacitor of 10 µF ceramic low ESR capacitor should be used to reduce switching
losses. It should be placed as close as possible to supply pins VDD and PVDD. The
connection traces should be wide and short to minimize impedance.
4.6.3 Output capacitors (COUT selection)
The selection of COUT is driven by the required ESR to minimize voltage ripple and load
step transients. There are two possibilities for output capacitors: either a 22 µF is connected
to ground or two 10 µF ceramic are used to reduce ESR and switching losses. The capacitor
should be placed as close as possible to VOUTx pins. T he co n ne ct i on t r ac es sh ou ld b e wid e

4.7 PCB layout considerations
The Printed Circuit Board layout must include the following consideration:
Current paths carrying high currents (bold lines in
Figure 15
) must be wide and short to
minimize impedance in order to reduce looses and EMI.
Small currents flow through v oltage paths. No specific care is requested about voltage paths
but it is recommended to follow the general rules for PCB routing to reduce influence of
external and internal interferences.

center of pad matrix by 75 µm wide trace. Isolation distance in this case is 75 µm (see
Figure 18
and
Figure 19
).

Note: 1 Max mounted height is 1.12 mm. Based on a 0.28 mm ball pad diameter.
Solder paste is 0.15 mm thickness and 0.28 mm diameter.
2 TFBGA stands for Thin Profile Fine Pitch Ball Grid Array.
Thin profile: The total profile height (DIm A) is measured from the seating plane to the top of
the component.
A = 1.01 to 1.20 mm
Fine pitch < 1.00 mm pitch.
3 The tolerance of position that controls the location of the pattern of balls with respect to
datums A and B.
For each ball there is a cylindral tolerance zone eee perpendicular to datum C and located
on true position with respect to datums A and B as defined by e. The axis perpendicular to
datum C of each ball must lie within this tolerance zone.
4 The tolerance of position that controls the location of the balls within the matrix with respect
to each other. F or each ball there is a cylindrical tolerance zone fff perpendicular to datum C
and located on true position as defined by e. The axis perpendicular to datum C of each ball
must lie within the tolerance zone.
Each tolerance zone fff in the array is contained entirely in the respective above eee zone
above.
The axis of each ball must be simultaneously in both tolerance zones.
