Standard Products Model Light Load Switching AS1329A Medium Load Automatic Powersave Operation AS1329B Light Load Automatic Powersave Operation AS1329C Continuous Switching The devices contain two internal MOSFET switches: one NMOS switch and one PMOS synchronous rectifier. Anti-ringing control circuitry reduces EMI by damping the inductor in discontinuous mode, and the devices exhibit extremely low quiescent current (< 1A) in shutdown. In shutdown mode the battery is connected directly to the output enabling the supply of real-time-clocks. The AS1329 is available in a 6-pin TSOT-23 package and 6-bump WL-CSP. 3 Applications The AS1329 is ideal for low-power applications where ultra-small size is critical as in medical diagnostic equipment, hand-held instruments, pagers, digital cameras, remote wireless transmitters, MP3 players, LCD bias supplies, cordless phones, GPS receivers, and PC cards.

With low RDS(ON) and gate charge internal NMOS and PMOS switches, the device maintains highefficiency from light to heavy loads. Modern portable devices frequently spend extended time in low-power or standby modes, switching to high power-drain only when certain functions are enabled. The AS1329A, AS1329B and AS1329C are ideal for portable devices since they maintain high-power conversion efficiency over a wide output power range, thus increasing battery life in these types of devices. In addition to high-efficiency at moderate and heavy loads, the AS1329A as well as the AS1329B includes an automatic powersave mode that improves efficiency of the power converter at light loads. The powersave mode is initiated if the output load current falls below a factory programmed threshold (see Figure 6 on page 5). Note: The AS1329C does not support powersave mode and provides continuous operation at all loads, eliminating low-frequency VOUT ripple at the expense of light load efficiency. Figure 19.

The low-voltage start-up circuitry controls the internal NMOS switch up to a maximum peak inductor current of 850mA (typ), with 1.5ms (approx.) off-time during start-up, allowing the devices to start up into an output load. With a VOUT > 2.3V, the start-up circuitry is disabled and normal fixed-frequency PWM operation is initiated. In this mode, the AS1329 operates independent of VIN, allowing extended operating time as the battery can drop to several tenths of a volt without affecting output regulation. The limiting factor for the application is the ability of the battery to supply sufficient energy to the output. www.austriamicrosystems.com/DC-DC_Step-Up/AS1329 Revision 1.11 8 - 21 AS1329 Datasheet - D e t a i l e d D e s c r i p t i o n 8.2 Low-Noise Fixed-Frequency Operation 8.2.1 Oscillator The AS1329 switching frequency is internally fixed at 1.2MHz allowing the use of very small external components. 8.2.2 Error Amplifier The integrated error amplifier is an internally compensated trans-conductance (gm) type (current output). The internal 1.23V reference voltage is compared to the voltage at pin FB to generate an error signal at the output of the error amplifier. A voltage divider from VOUT to GND programs the output voltage from 2.5 to 5V via pin FB as: VOUT = 1.23V(1 + (R1/R2)) 8.2.3 (EQ 1) Current Sensing A signal representing the internal NMOS-switch current is summed with the slope compensator. The summed signal is compared to the error amplifier output to provide a peak current control command for the PWM. Peak switch current is limited to approximately 850mA independent of VIN or VOUT. 8.2.4 Zero Current Comparator The zero current comparator monitors the inductor current to the output and shuts off the PMOS synchronous rectifier once this current drops to 20mA (approx.). This prevents the inductor current from reversing polarity and results in improved converter efficiency at light loads. 8.2.5 Anti-Ringing Control Anti-ringing control circuitry prevents high-frequency ringing on pin SW as the inductor current approaches zero. This is accomplished by damping the resonant circuit formed by the inductor and the capacitance on pin SW (CSW). 8.3 Powersave Operation (AS1329A, AS1329B) In light load conditions, the integrated powersave feature removes power from all circuitry not required to monitor VOUT. When VOUT has dropped approximately 1% from nominal, the AS1329A & B powers up and begins normal PWM operation. COUT (see Figure 19 on page 8) recharges, causing the AS1329A and AS1329B to re-enter powersave mode as long as the output load remains below the powersave threshold. The frequency of this intermittent PWM is proportional to load current; i.e., as the load current drops further below the powersave threshold, the AS1329A and AS1329B turns on less frequently. When the load current increases above the powersave threshold, the AS1329A and AS1329B will resume continuous, seamless PWM operation. While the AS1329A switches to automatic powersave mode already at medium loads, the AS1329B will do so only at very light loads. The AS1329C is a continuous switching device, hence the output voltage ripple is very low and no additional frequencies are produced which may cause interference. Notes: 1. An optional capacitor (CFF) between pins VOUT and FB in some applications can reduce VOUTp-p ripple and input quiescent current during powersave mode. Typical values for CFF range from 15 to 220pF. 2. In powersave mode, the AS1329A and AS1329B draws only 30A from the output capacitor(s), greatly improving converter efficiency. 8.4 Shutdown When pin SHDNN is low the AS1329 is switched off and <1A current is drawn from battery; when pin SHDNN is high the device is switched on. If SHDNN is driven from a logic-level output, the logic high-level (on) should be referenced to VOUT to avoid intermittently switching the device on. Note: If pin SHDNN is not used, it should be connected directly to pin OUT. In shutdown the battery input is connected to the output through the inductor and the internal synchronous rectifier P-FET. This allows the input battery to provide backup power for devices such as an idle microcontroller, memory, or real-time-clock, without the usual diode forward drop. In this way a separate backup battery is not needed. In cases where there is residual voltage during shutdown, some small amount of energy will be transferred from pin OUT to pin BATT immediately after shutdown, resulting in a momentary spike of the voltage at pin BATT. The ratio of CIN and COUT partly determine the size and duration of this spike, as does the current-sink ability of the input device. www.austriamicrosystems.com/DC-DC_Step-Up/AS1329 Revision 1.11 9 - 21 AS1329 Datasheet - A p p l i c a t i o n I n f o r m a t i o n 9 Application Information The AS1329 is perfectly suited for LED matrix displays, bar-graph displays, instrument-panel meters, dot matrix displays, set-top boxes, white goods, professional audio equipment, medical equipment, industrial controllers to name a few applications.

In order to reduce the output ripple the following improvements are recommended: ! Use a higher output capacitor, up to 44F and a higher input capacitor (22F). ! Use smaller values for the resistor divider. R1 should be about 300k. To avoid a high leakage current from pin VOUT through the resistor divider to GND, R1 should not be less than 100k.. ! To reduce the output ripple it's also possible to speed up the feedback loop. To achieve this, place a 22pF (C4 in Figure 24) capacitor in parallel to R1. Via C4 the fast transients are shorted to the FB pin and the feedback loop is even faster. A 1M resistor for R1 slows down the FB loop. ! Due to noise and to their non linear behavior, the use of potentiometers is not recommended. Figure 24.

This will reduce the inductive coupling and will deliver a more accurate measurement result. The output ripple is getting higher as VIN is getting closer to VOUT. Figure 25 shows that the above mentioned improvements reduce the output voltage ripple. If VIN is higher than VOUT the AS1329 stops switching and VIN is connected to VOUT via the inductor and the internal P-FET. Figure 25.

The required minimum values for the external inductor are: ! 3.3H for applications 3.6V ! 4.7H for applications > 3.6V Larger inductor values allow greater output current capability by reducing the inductor ripple current. Increasing the inductance above 10H will increase size while providing negligible improvement in output current capability. The approximate output current capability of the AS1329 versus inductor value is given in: V IN D I OUT ( MAX ) = I P - ------------------ ( 1 - D ) fL2 (EQ 2) Where: is the estimated efficiency; IP is the peak current limit value (0.6A); VIN is the input voltage; D is the steady-state duty ratio = (VOUT - VIN)/VOUT; f is the switching frequency (1.2MHz typ); L is the inductor value. The inductor current ripple is typically set for 20 to 40% of the maximum inductor current (IP). High-frequency ferrite core inductor materials reduce frequency dependent power losses compared to less expensive powdered iron types, which result in improved converter efficiency. The inductor should have low ESR to reduce the IR power losses, and must be able to handle the peak inductor current without saturating. Molded chokes and some chip inductors normally do not have enough core to support the peak inductor currents of the AS1329 (850mA typ). To minimize radiated noise, use a toroid, pot core, or shielded bobbin inductor. Table 6.

Multi-layer ceramic capacitors are recommended since they have extremely low ESR and are available in small footprints. A 2.2 to 10F output capacitor is sufficient for most applications. Larger values up to 22F may be used to obtain extremely low output voltage ripple and improve transient response. An additional phase lead capacitor may be required with output capacitors larger than 10F to maintain acceptable phase margin. X5R and X7R dielectric materials are recommended due to their ability to maintain capacitance over wide voltage and temperature ranges. Table 7.

Low ESR input capacitors reduce input switching noise and reduce the peak current drawn from the battery. Ceramic capacitors are recommended for input decoupling and should be located as close to the device as is practical. A 4.7F input capacitor is sufficient for most applications. Larger values may be used without limitations. Table 8.

A Schottky diode should be used to carry the output current for the time it takes the PMOS synchronous rectifier to switch on. For VOUT < 4.5V a Schottky diode is optional, although using one will increase device efficiency by 2% to 3%. Note: Do not use ordinary rectifier diodes, since the slow recovery times will compromise efficiency. www.austriamicrosystems.com/DC-DC_Step-Up/AS1329 Revision 1.11 15 - 21 AS1329 Datasheet - A p p l i c a t i o n I n f o r m a t i o n 9.4 PCB Layout Guidelines The high-speed operation of the AS1329 requires proper layout for optimum performance. Figure 29 shows the recommended component layout. ! A large ground pin copper area will help to lower the device temperature. ! A multi-layer board with a separate ground plane is recommended. ! Traces carrying large currents should be direct. ! Trace area at pin FB should be as small as is practical. ! The lead-length to the battery should be as short as is practical. Figure 29.
