Please note: As part of the Fairchild Semiconductor integration, some of the Fairchild orderable part numbers
will need to change in order to meet ON Semiconductor’s system requirements. Since the ON Semiconductor
product management systems do not have the ability to manage part nomenclature that utilizes an underscore
(_), the underscore (_) in the Fairchild part numbers will be changed to a dash (-). This document may contain
device numbers with an underscore (_). Please check the ON Semiconductor website to verify the updated
device numbers. The most current and up-to-date ordering information can be found at www.onsemi.com. Please

Description
The FAN48632 allows systems to take advantage of new
battery chemistries that can supply significant energy when
the battery voltage is lower than the required voltage for
system power ICs. By combining built-in power transistors,
synchronous rectification, and low supply current; this IC
provides a compact solution for systems using advanced
Li-Ion battery chemistries.
The FAN48632 is a boost regulator designed to provide a
minimum output voltage (VOUT(MIN)) from a single-cell Li-Ion
battery, even when the battery voltage is below system
minimum. In boost mode, output voltage regulation is
guaranteed to a maximum load current of 1.5 A continuous
and 2.0 A pulsed. Quiescent current in Shutdown Mode is less
than 3 µA, which maximizes battery life. The regulator
transitions smoothly between Bypass and normal Boost Mode.
The device can be forced into Bypass Mode to reduce
quiescent current.
The FAN48632 is available in a 16-bump, 0.4 mm pitch,
Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP).

FAN48632 • Rev. 1.0.3 9
FAN48632 2.5 MHz, 2.0 A Pulsed-Load Synchronous TinyBoost Regulator with Bypass Mode for GSM PA Supply
Circuit Description
FAN48632 is a synchronous boost regulator, typically
operating at 2.5 MHz in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM),
which occurs at moderate to heavy load current and low VIN
voltages. The regulator includes a Bypass Mode that activates
when VIN is above the boost regulator’s set point.
In anticipation of a heavy load transition, the set point can be
adjusted upward by fixed amounts with the VSEL pin to
reduce the required system headroom during lighter-load
operation to save power.

Boost Mode
The FAN48632 uses a current-mode modulator to achieve
excellent transient response and smooth transitions between
CCM and Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM) operation.
During CCM operation, the device maintains a switching
frequency of about 2.5 MHz. In light-load operation (DCM),
frequency is reduced to maintain high efficiency.

Shutdown and Startup
If EN is LOW, all bias circuits are off and the regulator is in
Shutdown Mode. During shutdown, current flow is prevented
from VIN to VOUT, as well as reverse flow from VOUT to VIN.
During startup, it is recommended to keep DC current draw
below 500 mA.
LIN State
When EN is HIGH and VIN > UVLO, the regulator attempts to
bring VOUT within 300 mV of VIN using the internal fixed current
source from VIN (Q3). The current is limited to LIN1 set point.
If VOUT reaches VIN-300 mV during LIN1 Mode, the SS state is
initiated. Otherwise, LIN1 times out after 512 s and LIN2
Mode is entered.
In LIN2 Mode, the current source is incremented to 2 A. If
VOUT fails to reach VIN-300 mV after 1024 s, a fault condition
is declared.
SS State
Upon the successful completion of the LIN state (VOUT>VIN-
300 mV), the regulator begins switching with boost pulses
current limited to 50% of nominal level.
During SS state, VOUT is ramped up by stepping the internal
reference. If VOUT fails to reach regulation during the SS ramp
sequence for more than 64 µs, a fault condition is declared. If
large COUT is used, the reference is automatically stepped
slower to avoid excessive input current draw.
BST State
This is a normal operating state of the regulator.
BPS State
If VIN is above VREG when the SS Mode successfully
completes, the device transitions directly to BPS Mode.
FAULT State
The regulator enters the FAULT state under any of the
following conditions:
VOUT fails to achieve the voltage required to advance from
LIN state to SS state.
VOUT fails to achieve the voltage required to advance from
SS state to BST state.
Boost current limit triggers for 2 ms during the BST state.
VDS protection threshold is exceeded during BPS state.
Once a fault is triggered, the regulator stops switching and
presents a high-impedance path between VIN and VOUT. After
waiting 20 ms, a restart is attempted.
Power Good
Power good is 0 FAULT, 1 POWER GOOD, open-drain input.
The Power good pin is provided for signaling the system when
the regulator has successfully completed soft-start and no
faults have occurred. Power good also functions as an early
warning flag for high die temperature and overload conditions.
PG is released HIGH when the soft-start sequence is
successfully completed.
PG is pulled LOW when PMOS current limit has triggered
for 64 µs OR the die the temperature exceeds 120°C. PG
is re-asserted when the device cools below to 100°C.
Any FAULT condition causes PG to be de-asserted.
Over-Temperature
The regulator shuts down when the die temperature exceeds
150°C. Restart occurs when the IC has cooled by
approximately 20°C.

FAN48632 • Rev. 1.0.3 10
FAN48632 2.5 MHz, 2.0 A Pulsed-Load Synchronous TinyBoost Regulator with Bypass Mode for GSM PA Supply
Bypass Operation
In normal operation, the device automatically transitions from
Boost Mode to Bypass Mode, if VIN goes above target VOUT. In
Bypass Mode, the device fully enhances both Q1 and Q3 to
provide a very low impedance path from VIN to VOUT. Entry to
the Bypass Mode is triggered by condition where VIN > VOUT
and no switching has occurred during past 5 µs. To soften the
entry to Bypass Mode, Q3 is driven as a linear current source
for the first 5 µs. Bypass Mode exit is triggered when VOUT
reaches the target VOUT voltage. During Automatic Bypass
Mode, the device is short-circuit protected by voltage
comparator tracking the voltage drop from VIN to VOUT; if the
drop exceeds 200 mV, a FAULT is declared.
With sufficient load to enforce CCM operation, the Bypass
Mode to Boost Mode transition occurs at the target VOUT. The
corresponding input voltage at the transition point is:
BYPONDSPONDSLLOADOUTIN RRDCRIVV )()( ||)(
EQ. 1
The Bypass Mode entry threshold has 25 mV hysteresis
imposed at VOUT to prevent cycling between modes. The
transition from Boost Mode to Bypass Mode occurs at the
target VOUT+25 mV. The corresponding input voltage is:
)(25 )( PONDSLLOADOUTIN RDCRImVVV
EQ. 2
Forced Bypass
Entry to Forced Bypass Mode initiates with a current limit on
Q3 and then proceeds to a true bypass state. To prevent
reverse current to the battery, the device waits until output
discharges below VIN before entering Forced Bypass Mode.
Low-IQ Forced Bypass Mode is available for the FAN48632.
After the transition is complete, most of the internal circuitry is
disabled to minimize quiescent current draw. OCP, UVLO,
output OVP and over-temperature protections are inactive in
Forced Bypass Mode.
In Forced Bypass Mode, VOUT can follow VIN below VOUT(MIN).
VSEL
VSEL can be asserted in anticipation of a positive load
transient. Raising VSEL increases VOUT(MIN) by a fixed amount
and VOUT is stepped to the corresponding target output voltage
in 20 µs. The functionality can also be utilized to mitigate
undershoot during severe line transients, while minimizing
VOUT during more benign operating conditions to save power.

FAN48632 2.5 MHz, 2.0 A Pulsed-Load Synchronous TinyBoost Regulator with Bypass Mode for GSM PA Supply
Application Information
Output Capacitance (COUT)
Stability
The effective capacitance (CEFF) of small, high-value, ceramic
capacitors decreases as bias voltage increases.
FAN48632 is guaranteed for stable operation with the
minimum value of CEFF (CEFF(MIN)) of 14 F.
CEFF varies with manufacturer, material, and case size.
Inductor Selection
The recommended nominal inductance value is 0.47 H.
FAN48632 employs valley-current limiting; peak inductor
current can exceed4.4 A for a short duration during overload
conditions. Saturation effects cause the inductor current ripple
to become higher under high loading as only valley of the
inductor current ripple is controlled..
Startup
Input current limiting is in effect during soft-start, which limits
the current available to charge COUT and any additional
capacitance on the VOUT line. If the output fails to achieve
regulation within the limits described in the Startup section, a
FAULT occurs, causing the circuit to shut down then restart
after a significant time period. If the total combined output
capacitance is very high, the circuit may not start on the first
attempt, but eventually achieves regulation if no load is
present. If a high-current load and high capacitance are both
present during soft-start, the circuit may fail to achieve
regulation and continually attempts soft-start, only to have
the output capacitance discharged by the load when in a
FAULT state.
Output Voltage Ripple
Output voltage ripple is inversely proportional to COUT. During
tON, when the boost switch is on, all load current is supplied by
COUT. Output ripple is calculated as:

As can be seen from EQ. 5, the maximum VRIPPLE occurs
when VIN is at minimum and ILOAD is at maximum.
2.0 A Pulsed Loads for GSM Applications
The FAN48632 can support 2 A load pulses for GSM and
GSM Edge applications, according to the minimum VIN levels
shown in Figure 23.
Figure 23. Minimum VIN for 2 A GSM Pulse, 3.5 VOUT
Results shown use circuit/components of Figure 1 with device
mounted on standard evaluation platform (layout Figure 24).
Layout Recommendation
To minimize spikes at VOUT, COUT must be placed as close as
possible to PGND and VOUT, as shown in Figure 24. The
associated PGND and VOUT routes are best made directly on
the top copper layer, rather than thru vias.
For thermal reasons, it is suggested to maximize the pour
area for all planes other than SW. Especially the ground pour
should be set to fill all available PCB surface area and tied to
internal layers with a cluster of thermal vias.
