Design Procedures
GENERAL
A ceramic decoupling capacitor should be used between the
VCC and GND pin of the chip. There are three major
currents drawn from the decoupling capacitor:
In order to reduce the noisy effect of the bootstrap capacitor
current to the IC, a small resistor, such as 10Ω, can be used
with the decoupling capacitor to construct a low pass filter for
the IC, as shown in Figure 41. The soft-start capacitor and
the resistor divider setting the output voltage is easy to
select as discussed in the “Block Diagram” on page 13.
Selection of the Current Sense Resistor
The value of the current sense resistor determines the gain
of the current sensing circuit. It affects the current loop gain
and the overcurrent protection setpoint. The voltage drop on
the lower MOSFET is sensed within 400ns after the upper
MOSFET is turned off. The current sense pin has a 140Ω
resistor in series with the external current sensing resistor.
The current sense pin can source up to a 260µA current
while sensing current on the lower MOSFET, in such a way
that the voltage drop on the current sensing path would be
equal to the voltage on the MOSFET.

so that the maximum I

current of the ISEN pin to meet the overcurrent protection
and the change the current loop gain. The lower the current
sensing resistor, the higher gain of the current loop, which
can damp the output LC filter more.
A higher value current-sensing resistor will decrease the
current sense gain. If the phase node of the converter is very
noisy due to poor layout, the sensed current will be
contaminated, resulting in duty cycle jittering by the current
loop. In such a case, a bigger current sense resistor can be
used to reduce both real and noise current levels. This can
help damp the phase node wave form jittering.
Sometimes, if the phase node is very noisy, a resistor can be
put on the ISEN pin to ground. This resistor together with the
R
internal current sense amplifier, and reduce noise coupling.
Sizing the Overcurrent Setpoint Resistor
The internal 0.9V reference is buffered to the OCSET pin
with a voltage follower (refer to the equivalent circuit in
Figure 42). The current going through the external
overcurrent set resistor is sensed from the OCSET pin. This
current, divided by 2.9, sets up the overcurrent threshold and
compares with the scaled ISEN pin current going through
R
than the threshold value, an OC signal is generated. The first
OC signal starts a counter and activates a pulse skipping
function. The inductor current will be continuously monitored
through the phase node voltage after the first OC trip. As
long as the sensed current exceeds the OC threshold value,
the following PWM pulse will be skipped. This operation will
be the same for 8 switching cycles. Another OC occurring
between 8 to 16 switching cycles would result in a latch off
with both upper and lower drives low. If there is no OC within
8 to 16 switching cycles, normal operation resumes.
