WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module LIGHT LOAD OPERATION The 171040302 forces the CCM (Continuous Conduction Mode) operation at light load (forced CCM). The inductor current during tOFF can flow in the opposite direction, i.e. from the output capacitor and load to ground, through the low side MOSFET. In this way during tOFF the output capacitor is discharged and loses the excess of charge gathered during t ON.

Essential Steps 1. 2. 3. 4. Set output voltage Set operating frequency Select input capacitor Select output capacitor Optional Steps 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module Step 1 Setting the output voltage (VOUT ) The output voltage is selected with a resistor divider across FB pin and AGND. The upper resistor of 1430 Ω of the feedback voltage resistor divider is located inside the module. The output voltage adjustment range is from 0.8V to 3.6V. R VREF is the internal reference voltage (0.8V). = V V ∗ 1430Ω (Ω) −V (1) VOUT 3.3V 3.0V 2.5V 1.8V 1.5V 1.2V 1.0V 0.
WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module Step 2 Setting the operating frequency (fSW) The switching frequency must be selected according to the input voltage, output voltage and load current for the best performance in loop regulation and transient response. Note: RRT open (fSW = 500 kHz) is only allowed under specific conditions (see table below)! VIN = 5V OPERATING FREQUENCY [kHz] RRT [kΩ] VIN = 3.3V IOUT = 0 to 1.5A IOUT > 1.
WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module Step 3 Select input capacitor (CIN) The energy at the input of the power module is stored in the input capacitor. A small input capacitor (100nF) is integrated inside the 1710x0302 MagI³C Power Module series, ensuring good EMI performance. Additional input capacitance is required external to the power module to provide cycle-by-cycle switch current and to support load transients.

WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module The use of very low ESR capacitors leads to an output voltage ripple as shown below: Output voltage ripple with low ESR capacitors Output voltage ripple [mV] 10 5 0 -5 -10 0 1 2 3 time [µs] When capacitors with slightly higher ESR are utilized, the dominant parameter which influences the output voltage ripple is just the ESR: ESR ≤ V ∆I (7) Consequently the shape of the output voltage ripple changes, as
WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module Selection by load step requirements The output voltage is also affected by load transients (see picture below). When the output current transitions from a low to a high value, the voltage at the output capacitor (V OUT) drops. This involves two contributing factors. One is caused by the voltage drop across the ESR (V ESR) and depends on the slope of the rising edge of the current step (t rise).
WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module In order to choose the value of the output capacitor, the following steps should be utilized: 1. 2. 3. According to the operating conditions (VIN, VOUT and fSW ), select the minimum COUT recommended in table on page 35. Measure td. Calculate the appropriate value of COUT for the maximum voltage drop Vdischarge allowed at a defined load step, using the following equation (10), derived from equation (9): C 4.
WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module Nevertheless, as indicated in point 4, one or more measurements should be performed in order to find the most suitable value of COUT. After some iterations, the most suitable output capacitance is determined. Due to its high value, a combination of two MLCC (47µF each one) and an electrolytic capacitor (220µF) is implemented.
WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module Step 5 Select soft-start capacitor (CSS) Connecting the INTSS pin to AGND and leaving SS/TRK pin open enables the internal soft-start capacitor with a soft-start interval of approximately 1 ms. Adding additional capacitance between the SS/TRK pin and AGND increases the soft-start time according to the table below. There is no maximum value limit for CSS.

The first peak (same for any condition) is due to the initial charge of the capacitors at the input (C IN). This current peak is not affected by the soft-start.
WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module Step 6 Select undervoltage lockout divider Pin 29 connected to analog ground This connects the internal undervoltage lockout resistor divider. The enable rising threshold is typ. 1.25V. The enable falling threshold is at 1V max. Use at least 10% safety tolerance. For 3.3V input voltage use a rising threshold below 3V. This threshold is attainable by leaving pin 29 open.

WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module LAYOUT RECOMMENDATION PCB layout is an important part of DC-DC converter design. Poor board layout can interfere with the performance of a DC-DC converter and surrounding circuitry by contributing to EMI, ground bounce and resistive voltage drop in the traces. These can send erroneous signals to the DC-DC converter resulting in poor regulation or instability.
WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module The placement of the input capacitors is highlighted in the following pictures of the evaluation board. ENABLE The positive terminal of CIN1 and CIN2 need to be very close to the VIN pins of the power module.
WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module 2: Analog Ground (AGND) connections ENABLE The ground connections for the clock setting resistor (R RT), soft-start capacitor (SS/TRK), output voltage setting resistor (RSET) and enable components should be routed to the AGND pins of the device. If not properly handled, poor grounding can result in degraded load regulation or erratic output voltage ripple behavior. Place R RT, and CSS close to their respective pins.
WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module 4: Feedback layout ENABLE The feedback resistor, RSET should be located close to the FB pin. Since the FB node is high impedance, maintain the trace thickness small. The traces from RSET should be routed away from the body of the MagI³C power module to minimize noise pickup. Connect the feedback trace at the positive terminal of the last output capacitor (C OUT2). As this is the node of lowest noise.
WPMDB1400362Q / 171040302 MagI3C Power Module VDRM – Variable Step Down Regulator Module 6: Provide adequate device heat-sinking Place a dedicated PGND copper area beneath the MagI³C Power Module. ENABLE Use an array of heat-sinking vias to connect the PGND pad to the ground plane on the bottom PCB layer. If the PCB has a plurality of copper layers, these thermal vias can also be used to make connection to inner layer heat-spreading ground planes.
