DIODES AP63300Q 32v Input 3A Low IQ Synchronous Buck Instructions

DIODES AP63300Q 32v Input 3A Low IQ Synchronous Buck

DESCRIPTION

The AP63300Q and AP63301Q are 3A, synchronous buck converters each with a wide input voltage range of 3.8V to 32V. The devices fully integrate a 75mΩ high- side power MOSFET and a 40mΩ low-side power MOSFET to provide high efficiency step-down DC-DC conversion.
The AP63300Q and AP63301Q are easily used by minimizing the external component count due to their adoption of peak current mode control along with their integrated loop compensation network.

The AP63300Q and AP63301Q are optimized for Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) reduction. The device has a proprietary gate driver scheme to resist switching node ringing without sacrificing MOSFET turn-on and turn-off times, reducing high-frequency radiated EMI noise caused by MOSFET switching.
AP63300Q also features Frequency Spread Spectrum (FSS) with a switching frequency jitter of ±6%, reducing EMI by not allowing emitted energy to stay in any one frequency for a significant period of time.
The devices are available in the TSOT26 package.

RECOMMENDED OPERATING CONDITIONS

EVALUATION BOARD

QUICK START GUIDE

The AP63300Q/1Q-EVM has a simple layout and allows access to the appropriate signals through test points. To evaluate the performance of the AP63300Q/1Q, follow the procedure below:

1. For evaluation board configured at VOUT=5V, connect a power supply to the input terminals VIN and GND. Set VIN to 12V.
2. Connect the positive terminal of the electronic load to VOUT and negative terminal to GND.
3. For Enable, place a jumper to “H” position to enable IC. Jump to “L” position to disable IC.
4. The evaluation board should now power up with a 5V output voltage.
5. Check for the proper output voltage of 5V (±1%) at the output terminals VOUT and GND. Measurement can also be done with a multimeter with the positive and negative leads between VOUT and GND.
6. Set the load to 3A through the electronic load. Check for the stable operation of the SW signal on the oscilloscope. Measure the switching frequency.

MEASUREMENT/PERFORMANCE GUIDELINES:

1. When measuring the output voltage ripple, maintain the shortest possible ground lengths on the oscilloscope probe. Long ground leads can erroneously inject high frequency noise into the measured ripple.
2. For efficiency measurements, connect an ammeter in series with the input supply to measure the input current. Connect an electronic load to the output for output current.

Setting the Output Voltage of AP63300Q/1Q

1. Setting the output voltage
   The AP63300Q/1Q features external programmable output voltage by using a resistor divider network R3 and R1 as shown in the typical application circuit. The output voltage is calculated as below,
   
   First, select a value for R1 according to the value recommended in the table

2. Then, R3 is determined. The output voltage is given by Table 1 for reference. For accurate output voltage, 1% tolerance is required.

3. Output feed-forward capacitor selection
   The AP63300Q/1Q has the internal integrated loop compensation as shown in the function block diagram. The compensation network includes an 18k resistor and a 7.6nF capacitor. Usually, the type II compensation network has a phase margin between 60 and 90 degree. However, if the output capacitor has ultra- low ESR, the converter results in low phase margin. To increase the converter phase margin, a feed-forward cap C4 is used to boost the phase margin at the converter cross-over frequency fc.
   The feed-forward capacitor is given by Table 1 for reference. The feed-forward capacitor is calculated as below,
   

Table 1. Resistor selection for output voltage setting

EXTERNAL COMPONENT SELECTION:

1. Input & output Capacitors (Cin, Cout)
2. For lower output ripple, low ESR is required.
3. Low leakage current needed, multiple capacitor parallel connection.
4. The Cin and Cout capacitances are greater than 10µF and 44µF respective.
5. Bootstrap Voltage Regulator
6. An external 0.1µF ceramic capacitor is required as bootstrap capacitor between BST and SW pin to work as high side power MOSFET gate driver.
7. Inductor (L)
8. Low DCR for good efficiency
9. Inductance saturate current must higher than the output current
10. The recommended inductance is shown in the table 2 below.
