SPICE Device Model Si4724CY Vishay Siliconix N-Channel Synchronous MOSFETs FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The SI4724CY is a high speed driver designed to operate in high frequency dc-dc switchmode power supplies. It is designed to be used with any single output PWM IC or ASIC to produce a highly efficient synchronous rectifier converter. Under-voltage protection is provided for the Vdd power supply. The device includes a bootstrap diode, integrated Schottky diode, and fast switching times. MODEL DESCRIPTION The driver circuit was decomposed into elemental blocks, and then modeled accordingly as per the data sheet and specific topological IC information provided to AEi Systems by Vishay's engineers. IsSpice models for the output MOSFETs, bootstrap PNP diode, and the Schottky diode were provided and used in the modeling of the SI4724CY. No efforts were made to improve the models although they were reviewed and comments are shown below. Using ICAP/4, a SPICE package from AEi Systems, a model of the driver was then created using the modules and a corresponding schematic and netlist was generated. The model includes the following functionality and features: * * * * Proper transient response including variations with external components. Proper connectivity as per the real-life part Output rise and fall times for varying loads Under voltage lockout & hysteresis * * * * * Switching times (turn off and propagation delays) Schottky behavior Bootstrap voltage and diode characteristics Logic input voltage thresholds Break-before-make reference Note: The variation of the Vref and logic input voltage levels with VDD are not modeled. The schematic of the subcircuit topology, including several elements used to test the subcircuit (parts in green), is shown in Figure 1. The corresponding IsSpice4 subcircuit netlist is shown in Table 1. SUBCIRCUIT SCHEMATIC Figure 1: Document Number: 72365 23-Jan-04 Si4724CY subcircuit with additional test circuitry www.vishay.com 1 SPICE Device Model Si4724CY Vishay Siliconix www.vishay.com 2 Document Number: 72365 23-Jan-04 SPICE Device Model Si4724CY Vishay Siliconix The model operation is described as follows: * * * VDD under voltage lockout and threshold is modeled by S2, V10, and R5. The VBBM/Vref, Sync, and VIN comparisons are handled by B7, B1, and BIN, respectively. The logic input threshold value used was 2.3V. This value is static but could be made a function of VIN. The RC combinations, R2/C1, R8/C2 and R7/C1 account for the majority of the IO propagation delays and the TON/TOFF delay matching. * * The level shifting and the logic functions are modeled by B4 and B5. The output FETs have been modeled to provide the appropriate drive performance along with the proper values of rDSon (values used: G1 N-Channel 0.7 /P-Channel 1.5 , G2 N-Channel 0.5 /P-Channel 1 ) ASSUMPTIONS * * Behavior is based on typical values given in the specification sheet for operation at 27 C. Some thermal variations are modeled including some FET related parameters and the propagation delay and are represented in the subcircuit. * The SPICE syntax used is compatible with Intusoft ICAP/4. A PSpice version of the subcircuit is also provided.

This data should be verified against actual hardware for further confirmation. The output voltage (1.4 V) is somewhat less than the 1.6 V that should be achieved with an input pulse width of 545us (0.545u/4u). The reason for this is unknown. The variation of the Vref and logic input voltage levels with VDD are not modeled but could be added. The reader is referred to three references on this topic. 1. 2. 3.
