SC2463

POWER MANAGEMENT

Applications Information (Cont.)

Shoot through control circuitry provides a 30ns dead time

to ensure both the upper and lower MOSFET will not turn

on simultaneously and cause a shoot through condition.

Error Amplifier and PWM Controller

In closed loop operation, the internal oscillator ramp

ranges from 0.75V to 3.8V. The error amplifier output

ranges determines duty-ratio of a converter. The synchro-

nous continuous-conduction mode of operation allows

the SC2463 to regulate the output irrespective of the

direction of the load current.

The SC2463 uses voltage-mode control for good noise

immunity and ease of compensation. The low-side

MOSFET of each channel is turned off at the falling-edge

of the phase timing clock. After a brief non-overlapping

time interval of 30ns, the high-side MOSFET is turned

on. The phase inductor current ramps up. When the in-

ternal ramp reaches the threshold determined by the

error amplifier output, the high-side MOSFET is turned

off. As long as phase voltage collapses below 1.5V, the

low-side MOSFET is turned on.

6) voltage sensing circuit

7) loop compensation network

Operating Frequency (fs)

The switching frequency in the SC2463 is user-

programmable. The advantages of using constant

frequency operation are simple passive component

selection and ease of feedback compensation. Before

setting the operating frequency, the following trade-offs

should be considered:

1) Passive component size

2) Circuitry efficiency

3) EMI condition

4) Minimum switch on time and

5) Maximum duty ratio

For a given output power, the sizes of the passive

components are inversely proportional to the switching

frequency, whereas MOSFET/Diode switching losses are

proportional to the operating frequency. Other issues

such as heat dissipation, packaging and the cost issues

are also to be considered. The frequency bands for

signal transmission should be avoided because of EM

interference.

Minimum Switch On Time Consideration

In the SC2463, the falling edge of the clock turns on

the top MOSFET. The inductor current and the sensed

voltage ramp up. After the internal ramp voltage crosses

a threshold determined by the error amplifier output,

the top MOSFET is turned off. The propagation delay

time from the turn-on of the controlling FET to its turn-

off is the minimum switch on time. The SC2463 has a

minimum on time of about 50ns at room temperature.

This is the shortest on interval of the controlling FET.

The controller either does not turn on the top MOSFET

at all or turns it on for at least 50ns.

For a synchronous step-down converter, the operating

duty cycle is VO/VIN. So the required on time for the top

MOSFET is VO/(VINfs). If the frequency is set such that

the required pulse width is less than 50ns, then the

converter will start skipping cycles. Due to minimum on

time limitation, simultaneously operating at very high

switching frequency and very short duty cycle is not

practical. If the voltage conversion ratio VO/VIN and

hence the required duty cycle is higher, the switching

frequency can be increased to reduce the size of passive

components.
