Function Block Diagram

Operation

The RT7285C is a synchronous step-down converter with

advanced constant on-time control mode. Using the ACOT

control mode can reduce the output capacitance and fast

transient response. It can minimize the component size

without additional external compensation network.

Current Protection

The inductor current is monitored via the internal switches

cycle-by-cycle. Once the output voltage drops under UV

threshold, the RT7285C will enter hiccup mode.

UVLO Protection

To protect the chip from operating at insufficient supply

voltage, the UVLO is needed. When the input voltage of

VIN is lower than the UVLO falling threshold voltage, the

device will be lockout.

Thermal Shutdown

When the junction temperature exceeds the OTP

threshold value, the IC will shut down the switching

operation. Once the junction temperature cools down and

is lower than the OTP lower threshold, the converter will

autocratically resume switching.

Application information

Inductor Selection

Selecting an inductor involves specifying its inductance

and also its required peak current. The exact inductor value

is generally flexible and is ultimately chosen to obtain the

best mix of cost, physical size, and circuit efficiency.

Lower inductor values benefit from reduced size and cost

and they can improve the circuit's transient response, but

they increase the inductor ripple current and output voltage

ripple and reduce the efficiency due to the resulting higher

peak currents. Conversely, higher inductor values increase

efficiency, but the inductor will either be physically larger

or have higher resistance since more turns of wire are

required and transient response will be slower since more

time is required to change current (up or down) in the

inductor. A good compromise between size, efficiency,

and transient response is to use a ripple current (ΔIL) about

20% to 40% of the desired full output load current.

Calculate the approximate inductor value by selecting the

input and output voltages, the switching frequency (fSW),

the maximum output current (I

OUT(MAX)

) and estimating a

ΔIL as some percentage of that current.

Inductor saturation current should be chosen over IC's

Input Capacitor Selection

The input filter capacitors are needed to smooth out the

switched current drawn from the input power source and

to reduce voltage ripple on the input. The actual

capacitance value is less important than the RMS current

rating (and voltage rating, of course). The RMS input ripple

current (I

RMS

) is a function of the input voltage, output

voltage, and load current :

OUT

RMS OUT(MAX)

IN OUT

I = I 1



Ceramic capacitors are most often used because of their

low cost, small size, high RMS current ratings, and robust

surge current capabilities. However, take care when these

capacitors are used at the input of circuits supplied by a

wall adapter or other supply connected through long, thin

wires. Current surges through the inductive wires can

induce ringing at the RT7285C input which could

potentially cause large, damaging voltage spikes at VIN.

If this phenomenon is observed, some bulk input

capacitance may be required. Ceramic capacitors (to meet

the RMS current requirement) can be placed in parallel

with other types such as tantalum, electrolytic, or polymer

(to reduce ringing and overshoot).

Choose capacitors rated at higher temperatures than

required. Several ceramic capacitors may be paralleled to

meet the RMS current, size, and height requirements of

the application. The typical operating circuit use 10μF and

one 0.1μF low ESR ceramic capacitors on the input.

RT7285C

DS7285C-03 July 2014www.richtek.com

Output Capacitor Selection

The RT7285C is optimized for ceramic output capacitors

and best performance will be obtained using them. The

total output capacitance value is usually determined by

the desired output voltage ripple level and transient response

requirements for sag (undershoot on positive load steps)

and soar (overshoot on negative load steps).

Output Ripple

Output ripple at the switching frequency is caused by the

inductor current ripple and its effect on the output

capacitor's ESR and stored charge. These two ripple

components are called ESR ripple and capacitive ripple.

Since ceramic capacitors have extremely low ESR and

relatively little capacitance, both components are similar

in amplitude and both should be considered if ripple is

critical.

Output Transient Undershoot and Overshoot

In addition to voltage ripple at the switching frequency,

the output capacitor and its ESR also affect the voltage

sag (undershoot) and soar (overshoot) when the load steps

up and down abruptly. The ACOT transient response is

very quick and output transients are usually small.

However, the combination of small ceramic output

capacitors (with little capacitance), low output voltages

(with little stored charge in the output capacitors), and

low duty cycle applications (which require high inductance

to get reasonable ripple currents with high input voltages)

increases the size of voltage variations in response to

very quick load changes. Typically, load changes occur

slowly with respect to the IC's 500kHz switching frequency.

For the Typical Operating Circuit for 1.2V output and an

inductor ripple of 0.46A, with 1 x 22μF output capacitance

each with about 5mΩ ESR including PCB trace resistance,

the output voltage ripple components are :

0.46A

V = = 5.227mV

RIPPLE

V = 2.3mV 5.227mV = 7.527mV

But some modern digital loads can exhibit nearly

instantaneous load changes and the following section

shows how to calculate the worst-case voltage swings in

response to very fast load steps.

The output voltage transient undershoot and overshoot each

have two components : the voltage steps caused by the

output capacitor's ESR, and the voltage sag and soar due

to the finite output capacitance and the inductor current

slew rate. Use the following formulas to check if the ESR

is low enough (typically not a problem with ceramic

capacitors) and the output capacitance is large enough to

prevent excessive sag and soar on very fast load step

edges, with the chosen inductor value.

The amplitude of the ESR step up or down is a function of

the load step and the ESR of the output capacitor :

ESR _STEP

= ΔI

OUT

x R

ESR

The amplitude of the capacitive sag is a function of the

load step, the output capacitor value, the inductor value,the

input-to-output voltage differential, and the maximum duty

cycle. The maximum duty cycle during a fast transient is

a function of the on-time and the minimum off-time since

the ACOTTM control scheme will ramp the current using

on-times spaced apart with minimum off-times, which is

as fast as allowed. Calculate the approximate on-time

(neglecting parasitics) and maximum duty cycle for a given

input and output voltage as :

t = and D =

The actual on-time will be slightly longer as the IC

compensates for voltage drops in the circuit, but we can

compensates for the voltage losses. Calculate the output

Feed-forward Capacitor (Cff)

The RT7285C is optimized for ceramic output capacitors

and for low duty cycle applications. However for high-output

voltages, with high feedback attenuation, the circuit's

response becomes over-damped and transient response

can be slowed. In high-output voltage circuits (V

OUT

> 3.3V)

transient response is improved by adding a small “feed- forward” capacitor (C

) across the upper FB divider resistor

(Figure 1), to increase the circuit's Q and reduce damping

to speed up the transient response without affecting the

steady-state stability of the circuit. Choose a suitable

capacitor value that following below step.

 Get the BW the quickest method to do transient

response form no load to full load. Confirm the damping



Enable Operation (EN)

For automatic start-up the EN pin can be connected to

VIN, through a 100kΩ resistor. Its large hysteresis band

makes EN useful for simple delay and timing circuits. EN

can be externally pulled to VIN by adding a resistor-

capacitor delay (REN and CEN in Figure 2). Calculate the

delay time using EN's internal threshold where switching

operation begins (1.4V, typical).

An external MOSFET can be added to implement digital

control of EN when no system voltage above 2V is available

(Figure 3). In this case, a 100kΩ pull-up resistor, REN, is

connected between VIN and the EN pin. MOSFET Q1 will

be under logic control to pull down the EN pin. To prevent

enabling circuit when VIN is smaller than the VOUT target

value or some other desired voltage level, a resistive voltage

divider can be placed between the input voltage and ground

and connected to EN to create an additional input under

voltage lockout threshold (Figure 4).

External BOOT Bootstrap Diode

When the input voltage is lower than 5.5V it is

recommended to add an external bootstrap diode between

VIN (or VINR) and the BOOT pin to improve enhancement

of the internal MOSFET switch and improve efficiency.

The bootstrap diode can be a low cost one such as 1N4148

or BAT54.

External BOOT Capacitor Series Resistance

The internal power MOSFET switch gate driver is

optimized to turn the switch on fast enough for low power

loss and good efficiency, but also slow enough to reduce

EMI. Switch turn-on is when most EMI occurs since VSW

rises rapidly. During switch turn-off, SW is discharged

relatively slowly by the inductor current during the

deadtime between high-side and low-side switch on-times.

In some cases it is desirable to reduce EMI further, at the

expense of some additional power dissipation. The switch

Over-Temperature Protection

The RT7285C features an Over-Temperature Protection

(OTP) circuitry to prevent from overheating due to

excessive power dissipation. The OTP will shut down

switching operation when junction temperature exceeds

160°C. Once the junction temperature cools down by

approximately 20°C, the converter will resume operation.

To maintain continuous operation, the maximum junction

temperature should be lower than 125°C.

Under-Voltage Protection

Hiccup Mode

The RT7285C provides Hiccup Mode Under-Voltage

Protection (UVP). When the VFB voltage drops below

0.4V, the UVP function will be triggered to shut down

switching operation. If the UVP condition remains for a

period, the RT7285C will retry automatically. When the

UVP condition is removed, the converter will resume

operation. The UVP is disabled during soft-start period.

turn-on can be slowed by placing a small (<47Ω)

resistance between BOOT and the external bootstrap

capacitor. This will slow the high-side switch turn-on and

VSW's rise. To remove the resistor from the capacitor

charging path (avoiding poor enhancement due to

undercharging the BOOT capacitor), use the external diode

shown in figure 6 to charge the BOOT capacitor and place

the resistance between BOOT and the capacitor/diode

connection.

Thermal Considerations

For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute

maximum junction temperature. The maximum power

dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC

package, PCB layout, rate of surrounding airflow, and

difference between junction and ambient temperature. The

maximum power dissipation can be calculated by the

following formula :

D(MAX)

= (T

J(MAX)

− TA) / θ

where T

J(MAX)

is the maximum junction temperature, TA is

the ambient temperature, and θ

is the junction to ambient

thermal resistance.

For recommended operating condition specifications, the

maximum junction temperature is 125°C. The junction to

ambient thermal resistance, θJA, is layout dependent. For

SOT-23-6 / TSOT-23-6 package, the thermal resistance,

θJA, is 160°C/W on a standard four-layer thermal test board.

The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C can be

calculated by the following formula :

D(MAX)

= (125°C − 25°C) / (160°C/W) = 0.625W for

SOT-23-6 / TSOT-23-6 package

The maximum power dissipation depends on the operating

ambient temperature for fixed T

J(MAX)

and thermal

resistance, θJA. The derating curve in Figure 7 allows the

designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature

on the maximum power dissipation.

Layout Considerations

For best performance of the RT7285C, the following layout

guidelines must be strictly followed.

 Input capacitor must be placed as close to the IC as

possible.

 SW should be connected to inductor by wide and short

trace. Keep sensitive components away from this trace.
