THEORY OF OPERATION
Detailed Description
The SP6648 is a step-up DC-DC converter that can start up with input voltages as low as 0.85V (typically) and operates with an input voltage down to 0.61V. Ultra low quiescent current of 12µA provides excellent efficiency, up to 94%. In addition to the main switch, a 0.3Ω internal MOSFET the SP6648 has an internal synchro­nous rectifier, increasing efficiency and reduc­ing the space of an external diode. An internal inductive-damping switch significantly reduces inductive ringing for low noise high efficiency
Control Scheme
A minimum off-time, current limited pulse fre­quency modulation (PFM) control scheme com­bines the high output power and efficiency of a pulse width modulation (PWM) device with the ultra low quiescent current of the traditional PFM. At low to moderate output loads the PFM control provides higher efficiency than tradi­tional PWM converters are capable of deliver­ing. At these loads the switching frequency is determined by a minimum off-time (t and a maximum on-time (tON,

) where:
operation. If the supply voltage drops below
0.61V the SP6648 goes into under voltage lock­out, thus opening both internal switches. An externally programmable low battery detector with open drain output provides the ability to flag battery low condition. The inductor peak current is externally programmable to allow for

THEORY OF OPERATION: Continued
At light loads (as shown in plot A in Figure 1) the charge cycle will last the maximum value for tON: For a 1V battery this would be as follows:
t
= KON / V
ON
= 4.0Vµs / 1V = 4.0µs
BATT
The current built up in the coil during the charge cycle gets fully discharged (discontinuous con­duction mode DCM) When the current in the coil has reached zero the synchronous rectifier switch is opened and the voltage across the coil (from V
to LX) is shorted internally to
BATT
eliminate inductive ringing.
With increasing load (as shown in plot B in Figure 1) this inductor damping time becomes shorter, because the output will quickly drop below its regulation point due to heavier load. If the load current increases further the SP6648 enters continuous conduction mode (CCM) where there is always current flowing in the inductor. The charge time remains at maximum tON as long as the inductor peak current limit is not reached as shown in plot C in Figure 1. The inductor peak current limit can be programmed by tying a resistor R

Maximum load is reached when this discharge time has shrunk to the minimum allowed value T

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Circuit Layout
Printed circuit board layout is a critical part of a power supply design. Poor designs can result in excessive EMI on the feedback paths and on the ground planes with applications involving high switching frequencies and large peak currents. Excessive EMI can result in instability or regu­lation errors. All power components should be placed on the PC board as closely as possible with the traces kept short, direct, and wide (>50mils or 1.25mm). Extra copper on the PC board should be integrated into ground as a pseudo-ground plane. On a multilayer PC board, route the star ground using component-side cop­per fill, then connect it to the internal ground plane using vias. For the SP6648 devices, the inductor and input and output filter capacitors should be soldered with their ground pins as close together as possible in a star-ground con­figuration. The V
pin must be bypassed di-
OUT
rectly to ground as close to the SP6648 devices as possible (within 0.2in or 5mm). The DC-DC converter and any digital circuitry should be placed on the opposite corner of the PC board as far away from sensitive RF and analog input stages. Noisy traces, such as from the LX pin, should be kept away from the voltage-feedback V
node and separated from it using grounded
OUT
copper to minimize EMI. See the SP6648EB Evaluation Board Manual for PC Board Layout design details.
Component Selection
Selection of capacitors for SP6648 power sup­ply circuits can be made through the use of the Component Selection Table. Capacitor equiva­lent series resistance (ESR) in the range of 0.2Ω to 0.3Ω is a requirement for obtaining sufficient output voltage ripple for the SP6648 to properly regulate under load. For ESR values in this range, low ESR Tantalum capacitors are recom­mended. For example, in the SP6648 applica­tion circuit a 47µF, 10V, low-ESR, surface­mount tantalum output filter capacitor typically provides 50mV output ripple when stepping up from 2.6V to 3.3V at 200mA. Ceramic capaci­tors have ESR too low to produce enough output
ripple for the SP6648 to regulate the output. Designers should select input and output ca­pacitors with a rating exceeding the inductor current ripple, which is typically set by the inductor value and the KON value as given in the following relationship:
I
L(RIPPLE)
= KON/L
For the example of the 10µH inductor the induc­tor current ripple would be 330mA, while for the 22µH inductor the inductor current ripple value would be 150mA. Do not allow tantalum ca­pacitors to exceed their ripple-current ratings. An input filter capacitor can reduce peak cur­rents drawn from the battery and improve effi­ciency. For most applications, use the same 47µF tantalum capacitor as used for the input. Low-ESR aluminum electrolytic capacitors are acceptable provided they meet the ESR require­ment of 0.2Ω to 0.3Ω, and we list an appropriate 100µF aluminum electrolytic in the component selection table, but standard aluminum electro­lytic capacitors are not recommended.
In selecting an inductor, the saturation current specified for the inductor needs to be greater then the SP6648 peak current to avoid saturating the inductor, which would result in a loss in efficiency and could damage the inductor. The SP6648 evaluation board uses a Sumida CDRH5D28 10µH inductor with an I
SAT
value of 1.3A and a DCR of 0.065Ω, which easily handles the I
of 0.85A of the SP6648 and
PEAK
will deliver high efficiencies. Other inductors could be selected provided their I than the I
of the SP6648.

Programming
OUT
The SP6648 can be programmed as either a voltage source or a current source. To program the SP6648 as voltage source, the SP6648 re­quires 2 feedback resistors R1 & R2, as shown in the SP6648EB evaluation board schematic, to control the output voltage. To set V

in the
voltage mode, use the equation:
R1 = [(V
/1.25)-1] * R2

output goes low as determined by the relation­ship:

LOWBATT
= 0.61 * [(R3 + R4)/R4]
The SP6648 evaluation board R3 & R4 resistors have been set to trip for a falling battery thresh­old of about 2.0V. Using this relationship, other low battery threshold values can be set by the user.

current is defined by:

The saturation current specified for the inductor needs to be greater than the peak current to avoid saturating the inductor, which would result in a loss in efficiency and could damage the induc­tor. The SP6648 evaluation board uses a R value of 1.87K for an I
= 850mA to allow

LIM
the circuit to deliver up to 180mA for 1.3V input and 400mA for 2.6V input. Other values could be selected using the above relationships.
Using the LBON - Low Battery Output Function
The SP6648 will regulate the output until the input battery is completely discharged or until the under voltage lock-out (UVLO) occurs at V
= 0.61V. To provide a low battery warn-
BATT
ing, the Low Battery Output function of the SP6648 can be used. LBON is programmed externally by the R3 and R4 resistor divider connected between V
, the LBI input pin
BATT
and GND. The LBON is an open drain output, which is active low and is pulled up by a 1M resistor R5 to V
. When the LBI comparator

falling threshold of 0.61V is reached, the LBON
UVLO the Under Voltage Lock-Out Function
Once started up, the SP6648 will regulate the output until the input battery is completely dis­charged or until the under voltage lock-out (UVLO) occurs at V
= 0.61V. The UVLO
BATT
function will completely open all switches until the battery again rises above the 0.61V thresh­old.
Maximum Startup Current
It should be noted that for low input voltages the SP6648 startup circuit can not support large load currents at startup. In startup the SP6648 needs to boost the output from zero volts using the input voltage. Once the output is greater than
1.9V the operate circuit takes over and the SP6648 can supply much more current. Curves of maximum load current in startup for the SP6648 are shown in the typical performance characteristics and can be compared with the page one curve for maximum load current in operation.
For 1-cell battery applications, it is recommended to apply any large load current after the SP6648 has started up, typically in a few milliseconds. This is typically not a problem in many applica­tions where the load is a processor whose load current is low until the processor voltage comes up.

where V
is around 0.61V, IF is the operating

current of the LumiLED. To set the operating current to be about 350mA, Rb is selected as 1.8 Ω as shown in the following schematic. The effi­ciency of the SP6648 LumiLED circuit is im­proved by the use of a silicon diode D1 and resistor R1 to set the voltage at the current sense resistor R2 to 0.61V instead of the higher 1.25V at the FB pin. An efficiency curve follows showing the SP6648 efficiency driving 350mA output current into the high brightness LumiLED.

Battery Voltage (V)
As shown in following scope photos, if the SP6648 is powered up before the LumiLED is plugged in, the circuit will bring the Feedback pin to 0V and the SP6648 has a feature to set the output voltage to be 3.3V. Once the LumiLED is plugged in, the Feedback pin will go up to 1.25V and begin to regulate. The output voltage will go from 3.3V to 3.68V (=VF+0.61V), where VF is the forward voltage of the LumiLED. When the LumiLED is open, the Feedback pin voltage will go to 0V and the output voltage will go to
3.3V which will protect the part.

Brightness Control
One approach to control LED brightness is to apply a PWM signal to the SHDN input of the SP6648. In this case, the output current will be equal to the product of 350mA and the average duty cycle at the SHDN pin. An optional 10K potentiometer (R5) may also be used for dim­ming the LED current by varying the potentiom­eter between low brightness and full brightness.
