LM2640
Dual Adjustable Step-Down Switching Power Supply
Controller

General Description

The LM2640 is a dual step-down power supply controller in­tended for application in notebook personal computers and
other battery-powered equipment.

Fixed-frequency synchronous drive of logic-level N-channel
power MOSFETs is combined with an optional
pulse-skipping mode to achieve ultra efficient powerconver­sion over a 1000:1 load current range. The pulse-skipping
mode can be disabled in favor of fixed-frequency operation
regardless of the load current level.

High DC gain andcurrent-mode feedback control assure ex­cellent line and load regulation and a wide loop bandwidth
for fast response to dynamic loads.

An internal oscillator fixes the switching frequency at
200 kHz. Optionally,switching can be synchronized to an ex­ternal clock running as fast as 400 kHz.

An optional soft-start feature limits current surges from the
input power supply at start up and provides a simple means
of start-up sequencing.

Logic-level inputs allow the controllers to be turned ON and
OFF separately.

Pin Description (Refer to Typical Application Circuits)

Pin

#

Name Function

1 CSH2 The sense point for the positive side of the voltage across the current sense resistor (R13)

placed in series with output

#

2.

2 FB2 The regulated output voltage appearing at output

#

2 is sensed using this pin by connecting it to

the center of the output resistive divider (R15 and R16).

3 COMP2 An R-C network made up of R11, C10, and C12 is connected to this pin which provides loop

compensation for regulated output

#

2.

4 SS2 This provides programmable soft-start for the

#

2 output along with capacitor C15.

5 ON/OFF2

This pin turns off only output#2.

6SD

The part can be put into “sleep” mode using this pin, where both outputs are off and the internal

chip functions are shut down.
7 SYNC The internal oscillator may be synchronized to an external clock via this pin.
8 GND Connect this pin to circuit Signal Ground.
9 REF Internal 2.5V reference voltage. This voltage is turned off by the SD pin, but remains on if either

or both ON/OFF pins are pulled low, which turns off the regulated output(s).

10 2NDFB/FPWM A 12V supply can be generated using an auxiliary winding on the 5V output inductor. Feedback

to control this 12V output is brought in through this pin. If the 12V supply is not required, this

pin can also force the chip to operate at fixed frequency at light loads by pulling the pin low

(this is the “forced-PWM” mode of operation). This will prevent the converter from operating in

pulse-skipping mode.

11 ON/OFF1

This pin turns off only output#1.

12 SS1 This provides programmable soft-start for the

#

1 output along with capacitor C3.

13 COMP1 An R-C network made up of R6, C5, and C7 is connected to this pin which provides loop

compensation for regulated output

#

1.

14 FB1 The regulated output voltage appearing at output

#

1 is sensed using this pin by connecting it to

the center of the output resistive divider (R1 and R2).

15 CSH1 The sense point for the positive side of the voltage across the current sense resistor (R4)

placed in series with output

#

1.

16 HDRV1 The drive for the gate of the high-side switching FET used for output

#

1.

17 SW1 This is the switching output drive point of the two power FETs which produce output

#

1.

18 CBOOT1 The bootstrap capacitor (C8) for output

#

1 is returned to this point.

19 LDRV1 The drive for the gate of the low-side switching FET (synchronous rectifier) used for output

#

1.
20 PGND Connect this pin to circuit Power Ground.
21 CSL1 The sense point for the negative side of the voltage across the current sense resistor (R4)

placed in series with output

#

1.

22 LIN This pin provides a low-current (50 mA max) 5V output. This output is always on, and can not

be turned off by either the SD or ON/OFF pins.
23 IN This is the connection for the main input power.
24 LDRV2 The drive for the gate of the low-side switching FET (synchronous rectifier) used for output

#

2.

25 CBOOT2 The bootstrap capacitor (C9) for output

#

2 is returned to this point.

26 SW2 This is the switching output drive point of the two power FETs which produce output

#

2.

27 HDRV2 The drive for the gate of the high-side switching FET used for output

#

2.

28 CSL2 The sense point for the negative side of the voltage across the current sense resistor (R13)

placed in series with output

#
