THEORY OF OPERATION DESCRIPTION The IR3895 uses a PWM voltage mode control scheme with external compensation to provide good noise immunity and maximum flexibility in selecting inductor values and capacitor types. The switching frequency is programmable from 300 kHz to 1.5MHz and provides the capability of optimizing the design in terms of size and performance. IR3895 provides precisely regulated output voltage programmed via two external resistors from 0.5V to 0.86*Vin. The IR3895 operates with an internal bias supply (LDO) which is connected to the Vcc/LDO_out pin. This allows operation with single supply. The bias voltage is variable according to load condition. If the output load current is less than half of the peak‐to‐peak inductor current, a lower bias voltage, 4.4V, is used as the internal gate drive voltage; otherwise, a higher voltage, 6.4V, is used. This feature helps the converter to reduce power losses. The IC can also be operated with an external supply from 4.5 to 7.5V, allowing an extended operating input voltage (PVin) range from 1.0V to 21V. For using the internal LDO supply, the Vin pin should be connected to PVin pin. If an external supply is used, it should be connected to Vcc/LDO_Out pin and the Vin pin should be shorted to Vcc/LDO_Out pin. The device utilizes the on‐resistance of the low side MOSFET (sync FET) as current sense element. This method enhances the converter’s efficiency and reduces cost by eliminating the need for external current sense resistor. IR3895 includes two low R MOSFETs using IR’s HEXFET ds(on) technology. These are specifically designed for high efficiency applications. UNDER‐VOLTAGE LOCKOUT AND POR The under‐voltage lockout circuit monitors the voltage of Vcc/LDO_Out pin and the Enable input. It assures that the ...

SOFT‐START IR3895 has an internal digital soft‐start to control the output voltage rise and to limit the current surge at the start‐up. To ensure correct start‐up, the soft‐start sequence initiates when the Enable and Vcc rise above their UVLO thresholds and generate the Power On Ready (POR) signal. The internal soft‐start (Intl_SS) signal linearly rises with the rate of 0.2mV/µs from 0V to 1.5V. Figure 7 shows the waveforms during soft start (also refer to Fig. 20). The normal Vout start up time is fixed, and is equal to: 0.65V-0.15V T 2.5ms start 0.2mV/ s During the soft start the over‐current protection (OCP) and over‐voltage protection (OVP) is enabled to protect the device for any short circuit or over voltage condition.

The trip o threshold is typically set to 145 C. When trip threshold is exceeded, thermal shutdown turns off both MOSFETs and resets the internal soft start. Automatic restart is initiated when the sensed temperature drops within the operating range. There is o a 20 C hysteresis in the thermal shutdown threshold. EXTERNAL SYNCHRONIZATION IR3895 incorporates an internal phase lock loop (PLL) circuit which enables synchronization of the internal oscillator to an external clock. This function is important to avoid sub‐harmonic oscillations due to beat frequency for ...

Feed‐Forward Feed‐Forward (F.F.) is an important feature, because it can keep the converter stable and preserve its load transient performance when Vin varies in a large range. In IR3895, F.F. function is enabled when Vin pin is connected to PVin pin. In this case, the internal low dropout (LDO) regulator is used. The PWM ramp amplitude (Vramp) is proportionally changed with Vin to maintain Vin/Vramp almost constant throughout Vin variation range (as shown in Fig. 10). Thus, the control loop bandwidth and phase margin can be maintained constant. Feed‐forward function can also minimize impact on output voltage from fast Vin change. The maximum Vin slew rate is within 1V/µs. If an external bias voltage is used as Vcc, Vin pin should be connected to Vcc/LDO_out pin instead of PVin pin. Then the F.F. function is disabled. A re‐calculation of control loop parameters is needed for re‐compensation. Figure 10: Timing Diagram for Feed‐Forward (F.F.) Function SMART LOW DROPOUT REGULATOR (LDO) IR3895 has an integrated low dropout (LDO) regulator which can provide gate drive voltage for both drivers. In order to improve overall efficiency over the whole load range, LDO voltage is set to 6.4V (typical.) at mid‐ or heavy load condition to reduce Rds(on) and thus MOSFET conduction loss; and it is reduced to 4.4 (typical.) at light load condition to reduce gate drive loss. The smart LDO can select its output voltage according to the load condition by sensing switch node (SW) voltage. At light load condition when part of the inductor current flows in the reverse direction (DCM=1), V falling edge in a switching cycle. If this case happens for consecutive 256 switching cycles, the smart LDO reduces its output to 4.4V. If in any one of the 256 cycles, Vsw < 0 on LDrv falling edge, the counter is reset and LDO voltage doesn’t change. On the other hand, if Vsw < 0 on LDrv falling edge (DCM=0) , LDO output is increased to 6.4V. A hysteresis band is added to Vsw comparison to avoid FEBRUARY 01, 2012 | DATA SHEET| Rev 3.0 21 ...

Figure 12: Application Circuit for Simultaneous and Ratiometric Sequencing Tracking and sequencing operations can be implemented to be simultaneous or ratiometric (refer to Fig. 13 and 14). Figure 12 shows typical circuit configuration for sequencing operation. With this power‐up configuration, the voltage at the Vp pin of the slave reaches 0.5V before the Fb pin of the master. If R /R =R /R , simultaneous startup is achieved. That is, the output voltage of the slave follows that of the master until the voltage at the Vp pin of the slave reaches 0.5 V. After the voltage at the Vp pin of the slave exceeds 0.5V, the internal 0.5V reference of the slave dictates its output voltage. In reality the regulation gradually shifts from Vp to internal Vref. The circuit shown in Fig. 12 can also be used for simultaneous or ratiometric tracking operation if Vref of the slave is connected to GND. Table 2 summarizes the required conditions to achieve simultaneous/ratiometric tracking or sequencing operations.

VREF This pin reflects the internal reference voltage which is used by the error amplifier to set the output voltage. In most operating conditions this pin is only connected to an external bypass capacitor and it is left floating. A minimum 100pF ceramic capacitor is required from stability point of view. To keep stand by current to minimum, Vref is not allowed come up until EN starts going high. In tracking mode this pin should be pulled to GND. For margining applications, an external voltage source is connected to Vref pin and overrides the internal reference voltage. The external voltage source should have a low internal resistance (<100Ω) and be able to source and sink more than 25µA. POWER GOOD OUTPUT (TRACKING, SEQUENCING, VREF MARGINING) IR3895 continually monitors the output voltage via the sense pin (Vsns) voltage. The Vsns voltage is an input to the window comparator with upper and lower threshold of 0.6V and 0.45V respectively. PGood signal is high whenever Vsns voltage is within the PGood comparator window thresholds. The PGood pin is open drain and it needs to be externally pulled high. High state indicates that output is in regulation. The threshold is set differently at different operating modes and the results of the comparison sets the PGood signal. Figures 15, 16, and 17 show the timing diagram of the PGood signal at different operating modes. Vsns signal is also used by OVP comparator for detecting output over voltage condition.

Figure 18: Timing Diagram for OVP in non‐tracking mode SOFT‐STOP (S_CTRL) Soft‐stop function can make output voltage discharge gradually. To enable this function, S_Ctrl is kept low first when EN goes high. Then S_Ctrl is pulled high to cross the logic level threshold (typical 2V), the internal soft‐start ramp is initiated. So Vo follows Intl_SS to ramp up until it reaches its steady state. In soft‐stop process, S_Ctrl needs to be pulled low before EN goes low. After S_Ctrl goes below its threshold, a decreasing ramp is generated at Intl_SS with the same slope as in soft‐start ramp. Vo follows this ramp to discharge softly until shutdown completely. Figure 19 shows the timing diagram of S_Ctrl controlled soft‐start and soft‐stop. If the falling edge of Enable signal asserts before S_Ctrl falling edge, the converter is still turned off by Enable. Both gate drivers are turned off immediately and Vo discharges to zero. Figure 20 shows the timing diagram of Enable controlled soft‐start and soft‐stop. Soft stop feature ensures that Vout discharges and also regulates the current precisely to zero with no undershoot.

LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS The layout is very important when designing high frequency switching converters. Layout will affect noise pickup and can cause a good design to perform with less than expected results. Make the connections for the power components in the top layer with wide, copper filled areas or polygons. In general, it is desirable to make proper use of power planes and polygons for power distribution and heat dissipation. The inductor, output capacitors and the IR3899 should be as close to each other as possible. This helps to reduce the EMI radiated by the power traces due to the high switching currents through them. Place the input capacitor directly at the PVin pin of IR3899. The feedback part of the system should be kept away from the inductor and other noise sources. Compensation parts should be placed as close as possible to the Comp pin Resistor ...

SOLDER RESIST IR recommends that the larger Power or Land Area pads are Solder Mask Defined (SMD.) This allows the underlying Copper traces to be as large as possible, which helps in terms of current carrying capability and device cooling capability. When using SMD pads, the underlying copper traces should be at least 0.05mm larger (on each edge) than the Solder Mask window, in order to accommodate any layer to layer misalignment.

STENCIL DESIGN Stencils for PQFN can be used with thicknesses of 0.100‐0.250mm (0.004‐0.010"). Stencils thinner than 0.100mm are unsuitable because they deposit insufficient solder paste to make good solder joints with the ground pad; high reductions sometimes create similar problems. Stencils in the range of 0.125mm‐0.200mm (0.005‐0.008"), with suitable reductions, give the best results. * Contact International Rectifier to receive an electronic PCB Library file in your preferred format FEBRUARY 01, 2012 | DATA SHEET| Rev 3.0 41 16A Highly Integrated SupIRBuck Single‐Input Voltage, Synchronous Buck Regulator Evaluations have shown that the best overall performance is achieved using the stencil design shown in following Figure.
