GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADP2121 is a high frequency, low quiescent current, step­down, dc-to-dc converter optimized for portable applications in which board area and battery life are critical constraints. Fixed frequency operation at 6 MHz enables the use of tiny ceramic inductors and capacitors. Additionally the synchronous rectification improves efficiency and results in fewer external components. At high load currents, the device uses a voltage regulating pulse-width modulation (PWM) mode that maintains a constant frequency with excellent stability and transient response. At light load conditions, the ADP2121 can automatically enter a power saving mode that utilizes pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) to reduce the effective switching frequency and ensure the longest battery life in portable applications. During logic controlled shutdown (EN = 0), the input is disconnected from the output and draws less than 0.28 A (typical) from the source.
The ADP2121 has an input voltage range of 2.3 V to 5.5 V allowing the use of a single Li+/Li-polymer cell, multiple alkaline/Ni-MH cell, PCMCIA, and other standard power sources. The converter is internally compensated to minimize external components, and its 1.80 V, 1.82 V, 1.85 V, or 1.875 V fixed output can source up to 500 mA. Other key features include undervoltage lockout (UVLO) to prevent deep-battery discharge and soft start to prevent input current overshoot at startup.

OVERVIEW

The ADP2121 is a high efficiency, synchronous, step-down, dc­to-dc converter that operates from a 2.3 V to 5.5 V input voltage. It provides up to 500 mA of continuous output current at a fixed
1.80 V, 1.82 V, 1.85 V, or 1.875 V (typical) output voltage. The 6
MHz operating frequency enables the use of tiny external components. The internal control schemes of the ADP2121 give excellent stability and transient response. External control for mode selection and part enabling provides power-saving options that are aided by internal features such as synchronous rectification and compensation. Other internal features such as current limit, soft start, undervoltage lockout, output-to-ground short circuit protection, and thermal shutdown provide protection for internal and external circuit components.

MODE SELECTION

The ADP2121 has two modes of operation, determined by the state of the MODE pin: auto and PWM.
Pull the MODE pin high to force the converter to operate in PWM mode, regardless of the output current. Otherwise, set MODE low to allow the converter to automatically enter the power saving PFM mode at light load currents. Do not leave this pin floating.
07407-034

Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) Mode

The PWM mode forces the part to maintain a fixed frequency of 6 MHz (typical) over all load conditions. The converter controls the amount of power delivered to the load by varying the duty cycle of the internal oscillator. This control provides excellent stability, transient response, and output regulation, but results in lower efficiencies at light load currents.

Auto Mode (PFM-PWM Switching)

Auto mode is a power saving feature that enables the converter to switch between PWM and PFM in response to the output load. The ADP2121 operates in PFM mode for light load currents and switches to PWM mode for medium and heavy load currents (Figure 15).

Figure 15. PFM-to-PWM Transition Point
Pulse-Frequency Modulation
When the converter is operating under light load conditions, the effective switching frequency and supply current are decreased and varied using PFM to regulate the output voltage. This results in improved efficiencies and lower quiescent currents. In PFM mode, as shown in Figure 16, the converter only switches when necessary to keep the output voltage within the PFM limits set by an internal comparator. Switching stops when the upper limit is reached and resumes when the lower limit is reached.
Once the upper level is reached, the output stage and oscillator turn off to reduce the quiescent current. During this stage, the output capacitor supplies the current to the load. As the output capacitor discharges and the output voltage reaches the lower PFM comparator threshold, switching resumes and the process repeats. The output voltage, switching node voltage, and inductor current during this process are shown in Figure 16.

Mode Transition
The converter switches between PFM and PWM automatically to maintain optimal transient response and efficiency. The mode transition point depends on input voltage. Hysteresis exists in the transition point to prevent instability and decreased efficiencies that could result if the converter were able to oscillate between PFM and PWM for a fixed input voltage and load current.
A switch from PFM to PWM occurs when the output voltage dips below the lower PFM comparator threshold. Switching to PWM allows the converter to maintain efficiency and supply a heavier current to the load.
A switch from PWM to PFM occurs when the converter outputs a decreased peak current for multiple consecutive switching cycles. Switching to PFM allows the converter to save power and supply a lighter load current with fewer switching cycles.
Figure 16 shows the threshold voltage in PFM mode is slightly higher to ensure that the converter is able to supply enough current when transitioning into PWM mode.

ENABLE/SHUTDOWN

The EN input turns the ADP2121 on or off. Connect EN to PGND or logic low to shut down the part and reduce the current consumption to 0.1 µA (typical). Connect EN to VIN or logic high to enable the part. Do not leave this pin floating.

INTERNAL CONTROL FEATURES

Overcurrent Protection

To ensure that excessively high currents do not damage the inductor, the ADP2121 incorporates cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection. This function is accomplished by monitoring the instantaneous peak current on the power PMOS switch. If this current exceeds the maximum level (1 A typical), then the PMOS is immediately turned off. This minimizes the potential
Rev. PrA | Page 9 of 14
ADP2121 Preliminary Technical Data
www.BDTIC.com/ADI
for damage to power components during certain faults and transient events.

Soft Start

To prevent excessive input inrush current at startup, the ADP2121 operates with an internal soft start. When EN goes high, or when the part recovers from a fault (UVLO, TSD, or short-circuit protection), a soft start timer begins. The soft start timer corresponds to the maximum soft start period for the given fixed output voltage. During this time, the peak current limit is gradually increased to its maximum. As seen in the start-up waveforms in the Typical Performance Characteristics, the output voltage passes through several stages to ensure that each stages of the converter is able to startup effectively and in proper sequence. After the soft start period has expired, the peak current limit remains at 1 A (typical) and the part enters the operating mode determined by the MODE pin.

Synchronous Rectification

In addition to the P-channel MOSFET switch, the ADP2121 includes an N-channel MOSFET synchronous rectifier. The synchronous rectifier improves efficiency, especially for small load currents, and reduces cost and board space by eliminating the need for an external rectifier.
erratic operation at low input voltages. The UVLO levels have approximately 100 mV of hysteresis to ensure glitch-free startup.

Output Short Circuit Protection

If the output voltage is inadvertently shorted to GND, a standard dc-to-dc controller would deliver maximum power into that short. This could result in a potentially catastrophic failure. To prevent this, the ADP2121 senses when the output voltage is below the SCP threshold (typically 1.2 V). At this point, the controller turns off for approximately 1.8 ms and then automatically initiates a soft start sequence. This cycle repeats until the short is removed or the part is disabled. This dramatically reduces the power delivered into the short circuit, yet still allows the converter to recover if the fault is removed.

Compensation

The control loop is internally compensated to deliver maximum performance with no additional external components. The error amplifier compares the regulated output voltage on the feedback pin (FB) to an internal reference voltage. The ADP2121 has been designed to work with 0.47 H chip inductors and 4.7 F capacitors (see performance and/or stability.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

The external component selection for the ADP2121 applications circuit is driven by the load requirement and begins with the selection of Inductor L (see ). Once the inductor is chosen, C
and C

can be selected.
OUT

INDUCTOR SELECTION

The high switching frequency of the ADP2121 allows for minimal output voltage ripple, even with small inductors. Inductor sizing is a trade-off between efficiency and transient response. A small inductor leads to a larger inductor current ripple that provides excellent transient response, but degrades efficiency. Due to the high switching frequency of the ADP2121, multilayer ceramic inductors can be used for an overall smaller solution size. Shielded ferrite core inductors are recommended for their low core losses and low electromagnetic interference (EMI).
As a guideline, the inductor peak-to-peak current ripple is typically set to

The dc current rating of the inductor should be at least equal to the maximum load current plus half the ripple current to prevent core saturation.

INPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION

The input capacitor must be able to support the maximum input operating voltage and the maximum rms input current. The maximum rms input current flowing through the input capacitor is at maximum I capable of withstanding the rms input current for the maximum load current in the application using the following equation:

In principle, different types of capacitors can be considered, but for battery-powered applications, the best choice is the multilayer ceramic capacitor, due to its small size and equivalent series resistance (ESR).
Table 7 offers input capacitor
suggestions.
It is recommended that the VIN pin be bypassed with a 2.2 µF or larger ceramic input capacitor if the supply line has a distributed capacitance of at least 10 F. If not, at least a 10 F capacitor is recommended on the input supply pin. The input capacitor can be increased without any limit for better input voltage filtering. X5R or X7R dielectrics are recommended, with a voltage rating of 6.3 V or 10 V. Y5U and Z5U dielectrics are not recommended, due to their poor temperature and dc bias characteristics.

OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION

The output capacitor selection affects both the output voltage ripple and the loop dynamics of the converter. For a given loop crossover frequency (the frequency at which the loop gain drops to 0 dB), the maximum voltage transient excursion (overshoot) is inversely proportional to the value of the output capacitor. The ADP2121 has been designed to operate with small ceramic capacitors in the 4.7 µF to 10 µF range that have low ESR and equivalent series inductance (ESL) and are able, therefore, to meet tight output voltage ripple specifications. X5R or X7R dielectrics are recommended with a voltage rating of 6.3
Table 7 shows a list of input and output MLCC capacitors
V. recommended for ADP2121 applications.
When choosing output capacitors, it is also important to account for the loss of capacitance due to output voltage dc bias. This may result in using a capacitor with a higher rated voltage to achieve the desired capacitance value. Additionally, if ceramic output capacitors are used, the capacitor rms ripple current rating should always meet the application requirements. The rms ripple current is calculated as:

For high efficiency, good regulation, and stability with the ADP2121, a well-designed printed circuit board layout is required.
Use the following guidelines when designing printed circuit boards:
Keep the low ESR input capacitor, C
, close to VIN and GND.
IN
Keep high current traces as short and as wide as possible.
Avoid routing high impedance traces near any node
connected to SW or near the inductor to prevent radiated noise injection.
