RT8025 1.25MHz, 400mA, High Efficiency PWM Step-Down DC/DC Converter General Description The RT8025 is a high-efficiency pulse-width-modulated (PWM) step-down DC-DC converter. Capable of delivering 400mA output current over a wide input voltage range from 2.5 to 5.5V, the RT8025 is ideally suited for portable electronic devices that are powered from 1-cell Li-ion battery or from other power sources within the range such as cellular phones, PDAs and handy-terminals. Internal synchronous rectifier with low RDS(ON) dramatically reduces conduction loss at PWM mode. No external Schottky diode is required in practical application. The RT8025 automatically turns off the synchronous rectifier while the inductor current is low and enters discontinuous PWM mode. This can increase efficiency at light load condition. The RT8025 enters Low-Dropout mode when normal PWM cannot provide regulated output voltage by continuously turning on the upper P-MOSFET. RT8025 enter shutdown mode and consumes less than 0.1uA when EN pin is pulled low.

External component selection is determined by the maximum load current and begins with the selection of the inductor value and operating frequency followed by CIN and COUT. Inductor Selection For a given input and output voltage, the inductor value and operating frequency determine the ripple current. The ripple current IL increases with higher VIN and decreases with higher inductance. V V IL = OUT 1 - OUT VIN f x L Having a lower ripple current reduces the ESR losses in the output capacitors and the output voltage ripple. Highest efficiency operation is achieved at low frequency with small ripple current. This, however, requires a large inductor. A reasonable starting point for selecting the ripple current is IL = 0.4(IMAX). The largest ripple current occurs at the highest VIN. To guarantee that the ripple current stays below a specified maximum, the inductor value should be chosen according to the following equation : VOUT VOUT L= 1 - f x IL(MAX) VIN(MAX) Inductor Core Selection Once the value for L is known, the type of inductor must be selected. High efficiency converters generally cannot afford the core loss found in low cost powdered iron cores, forcing the use of more expensive ferrite or mollypermalloy cores. Actual core loss is independent of core size for a fixed inductor value but it is very dependent on the inductance selected. As the inductance increases, core losses decrease. Unfortunately, increased inductance requires more turns of wire and therefore copper losses will increase. Ferrite designs have very low core losses and are preferred at high switching frequencies, so design goals can concentrate on copper loss and preventing saturation. Ferrite core material saturates "hard", which means that inductance collapses abruptly when the peak design current is exceeded. This results in an abrupt increase in www.richtek.com 8 inductor ripple current and consequent output voltage ripple. Do not allow the core to saturate! Different core materials and shapes will change the size/ current and price/current relationship of an inductor. Toroid or shielded pot cores in ferrite or permalloy materials are small and don' t radiate energy but generally cost more than powdered iron core inductors with similar characteristics. The choice of which style inductor to use mainly depends on the price vs size requirements and any radiated field/EMI requirements. CIN and COUT Selection The input capacitance, C IN, is needed to filter the trapezoidal current at the source of the top MOSFET. To prevent large ripple voltage, a low ESR input capacitor sized for the maximum RMS current should be used. RMS current is given by : IRMS = IOUT(MAX) VOUT VIN VIN -1 VOUT This formula has a maximum at VIN = 2VOUT, where IRMS = IOUT/2. This simple worst-case condition is commonly used for design because even significant deviations do not offer much relief. Note that ripple current ratings from capacitor manufacturers are often based on only 2000 hours of life which makes it advisable to further derate the capacitor, or choose a capacitor rated at a higher temperature than required. Several capacitors may also be paralleled to meet size or height requirements in the design. The selection of COUT is determined by the effective series resistance (ESR) that is required to minimize voltage ripple and load step transients, as well as the amount of bulk capacitance that is necessary to ensure that the control loop is stable. Loop stability can be checked by viewing the load transient response as described in a later section. The output ripple, VOUT, is determined by : 1 VOUT IL ESR + 8fC OUT The output ripple is highest at maximum input voltage since IL increases with input voltage. Multiple capacitors placed in parallel may be needed to meet the ESR and RMS current handling requirements. Dry tantalum, special DS8025-00 October 2008 RT8025 polymer, aluminum electrolytic and ceramic capacitors are all available in surface mount packages. Special polymer capacitors offer very low ESR but have lower capacitance density than other types. Tantalum capacitors have the highest capacitance density but it is important to only use types that have been surge tested for use in switching power supplies. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors have significantly higher ESR but can be used in cost-sensitive applications provided that consideration is given to ripple current ratings and long term reliability. Ceramic capacitors have excellent low ESR characteristics but can have a high voltage coefficient and audible piezoelectric effects. The high Q of ceramic capacitors with trace inductance can also lead to significant ringing. Using Ceramic Input and Output Capacitors Higher values, lower cost ceramic capacitors are now becoming available in smaller case sizes. Their high ripple current, high voltage rating and low ESR make them ideal for switching regulator applications. However, care must be taken when these capacitors are used at the input and output. When a ceramic capacitor is used at the input and the power is supplied by a wall adapter through long wires, a load step at the output can induce ringing at the input, VIN. At best, this ringing can couple to the output and be mistaken as loop instability. At worst, a sudden inrush of current through the long wires can potentially cause a voltage spike at VIN large enough to damage the part. The resistive divider allows the VFB pin to sense a fraction of the output voltage as shown in Figure 4. V OUT R1 VFB R2 GND Figure 4. Setting the Output Voltage For adjustable about voltage mode, the output voltage is set by an external resistive divider according to the following equation : VOUT = VREF (1 + R1) R2 where VREF is the internal reference voltage (0.5V typ.) DS8025-00 October 2008 The efficiency of a switching regulator is equal to the output power divided by the input power times 100%. It is often useful to analyze individual losses to determine what is limiting the efficiency and which change would produce the most improvement. Efficiency can be expressed as : Efficiency = 100% - (L1+ L2+ L3+ ...) where L1, L2, etc. are the individual losses as a percentage of input power. Although all dissipative elements in the circuit produce losses, two main sources usually account for most of the losses : VIN quiescent current and I2R losses. The VIN quiescent current loss dominates the efficiency loss at very low load currents whereas the I2R loss dominates the efficiency loss at medium to high load currents. In a typical efficiency plot, the efficiency curve at very low load currents can be misleading since the actual power lost is of no consequence. 1. The VIN quiescent current is due to two components : the DC bias current as given in the electrical characteristics and the internal main switch and synchronous switch gate charge currents. The gate charge current results from switching the gate capacitance of the internal power MOSFET switches. Each time the gate is switched from high to low to high again, a packet of charge Q moves from VIN to ground. The resulting Q/t is the current out of VIN that is typically larger than the DC bias current. In continuous mode, IGATECHG = f(QT+QB) Output Voltage Programming RT8025 Efficiency Considerations where QT and QB are the gate charges of the internal top and bottom switches. Both the DC bias and gate charge losses are proportional to VIN and thus their effects will be more pronounced at higher supply voltages. 2. I2R losses are calculated from the resistances of the internal switches, R SW and external inductor RL. In continuous mode the average output current flowing through inductor L is "chopped" between the main switch and the synchronous switch. Thus, the series resistance looking into the LX pin is a function of both top and bottom MOSFET RDS(ON) and the duty cycle (DC) as follows : RSW = RDS(ON)TOP x DC + RDS(ON)BOT x (1-DC) The RDS(ON) for both the top and bottom MOSFETs can be obtained from the Typical Performance Characteristics www.richtek.com 9 RT8025 curves. Thus, to obtain I2R losses, simply add RSW to RL and multiply the result by the square of the average output current. Other losses including CIN and COUT ESR dissipative losses and inductor core losses generally account for less than 2% of the total loss. Where TC is the package case (Pin 2 of package leads) temperature measured by thermal sensor, PD is the power dissipation defined by user's function and the JC is the junction to case thermal resistance provided by IC manufacturer. Therefore it's easy to estimate the junction temperature by any condition. Thermal Considerations The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of IC package, PCB layout, the rate of surroundings airflow and temperature difference between junction to ambient. The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by following formula : PD(MAX) = ( TJ(MAX) - TA ) / JA Where T J(MAX) is the maximum operation junction temperature 125C, TA is the ambient temperature and the JA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance. For recommended operating conditions specification of RT8025 DC/DC converter, where TJ (MAX) is the maximum junction temperature of the die (125C) and TA is the maximum ambient temperature. The junction to ambient thermal resistance JA is layout dependent. For SOT-23-5/TSOT-23-5 packages, the thermal resistance JA is 250C/W on the standard JEDEC 51-3 single-layer thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25C can be calculated by following formula : PD(MAX) = ( 125C - 25C ) / 250 = 0.4 W for SOT-23-5/ TSOT-23-5 packages The maximum power dissipation depends on operating ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal resistance JA. For RT8025 packages, the Figure 5 of derating curves allows the designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature on the maximum power allowed. The value of junction to case thermal resistance JC is popular for users. This thermal parameter is convenient for users to estimate the internal junction operated temperature of packages while IC operating. It's independent of PCB layout, the surroundings airflow effects and temperature difference between junction to ambient. The operated junction temperature can be calculated by following formula : Maximum Power Dissipation (mW) 450 Single Layer PCB 400 350 SOT-23-5, TSOT-23-5 Packages 300 250 200 150 100 50 0 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 Ambient Temperature (C) Figure 5. Derating Curves for RT8025 Package Checking Transient Response 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 occurs, VOUT immediately shifts by an amount equal to ILOAD (ESR), where ESR is the effective 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. During this recovery time, VOUT can be monitored for overshoot or ringing that would indicate a stability problem. Layout Considerations Follow the PCB layout guidelines for optimal performance of RT8025. For the main current paths as indicated in bold lines in Figure 6 keep their traces short and wide. Put the input capacitor as close as possible to the device pins (VIN and GND). LX node is with high frequency voltage swing and should be kept small area. Keep analog components away from LX node to prevent stray capacitive noise pick-up. TJ = TC + PD x JC www.richtek.com 10 DS8025-00 October 2008 RT8025 Connect feedback network behind the output capacitors. Keep the loop area small. Place the feedback components near the RT8025. Connect all analog grounds to a command node and then connect the command node to the power ground behind the output capacitors.
