The SP6641's 10A quiescent current, low 0.3 NFET switch, and unique PFM control scheme combine to provide excellent efficiency over a wide output power range. Other features include a logic level enable control pin, guaranteed 0.9V startup, a tiny SOT23 5 pin package, and precise inductor peak current control. SP6641A sources up to 90mA at 1.3V, typ. and SP6641B sources up to 500mA at 2.6V, typ. by supporting different peak inductor current levels. Only two capacitors, an inductor, and a diode are required to build a power supply. Loop Regulation The SP6641 combines a fixed inductor peak current limit, a feed-forward minimum off-time one-shot, and a precision loop comparator to regulate the output voltage. Under light-load conditions the loop operates as a standard PFM converter. The frequency of fixed amplitude inductor current triangles is modulated to regulate the load. Under heavy load conditions, the converter adjusts the number of successive continuous mode current pulses to regulate the load. Refer to the block diagram for the following explanation of operating modes in loop regulation. The output voltage is internally divided down and fed to the negative terminal of the loop comparator. A +1.25V bandage reference voltage is applied to the positive terminal of the comparator. As the output voltage droops below the regulation threshold due to the load the loop comparator output (signal VOUT(LOW)) transitions to a logic "1". This sets the SR latch and initiates inductor charging by pulling the signal NGATE high. Inductor charging continues until the current reaches the internally programmed limit, at which point, the off-time one-shot is triggered. The off-time one-shot via signal TOFF resets the SR latch regardless of the SET state (VOUT(LOW)), opens the NMOS charge switch, and forces the Rev. 8/27/01, *Patent Pending inductor to discharge through the rectifying diode for a minimum time defined by the oneshot duration. The end of the off-time pulse releases the SR latch, and its output state is once again determined by the output of the loop comparator (VOUT(LOW)). Under light load conditions, the output voltage will have been pulled above the regulation threshold during the minimum off-time, the signal VOUT(LOW) will be a logic "0", and the NMOS charging switch will remain open. The inductor current discharges until it reaches zero or the loop comparator triggers a new charge cycle. Under a heavy load, the output voltage will remain below the regulation point at the end of the off-time pulse. In this condition, VOUT(LOW) has a logic value of 1 which immediately starts a new charge/discharge cycle defined by the peak inductor current and the minimum offtime. The inductor current will remain in a continuous conduction mode until the loop comparator indicates the output voltage is above the regulation threshold, and the inductor current will relax towards zero. During continuous mode bursts, the inductor current frequency and ripple amplitude are controlled by the minimum off-time one-shot and the input and output voltage levels. The SP6641 sets the minimum off-time to: KOFF TOFF = (VOUT - VIN), where: KOFF VOUT VIN = Off-time Constant, typically 1.5s*V = Output Voltage = Input Voltage Plugging the TOFF expression into the boost mode equations yields the maximum output current in regulation: IOUT(MAX) ( )( VIN VOUT IPK - KOFF 2L ) where: = Efficiency, typically 0.80 to 0.90 IPK = Programmed inductor peak current, typically 0.33A for the SP6641A, typically 1.0A for the SP6641B.

This requires a low voltage oscillator and charging switch powered from the VBATT pin to pump up the output voltage until the reference is established. The reference provides a REFREADY signal that determines when output control is handed over to the regulator. REFREADY shuts down the startup circuit and enables the regulator when the reference is valid and VOUT is above +1.9V. Once the regulator is given control it will continue to pump up the output at full power until regulation is reached. For two cell alkaline input voltages and above, the output voltage will be pulled above +1.9V quickly through the rectifying diode before the reference has a chance to establish. In this scenario the startup circuit will coarsely regulate around +2.8V until the REFREADY signal asserts. This keeps the output from overshooting in startup with higher input voltages. Startup is guaranteed at +0.9V at room temperature with a 3k load. Heavier loads will require a higher input voltage. Shutdown/Enable Control Pin 4 of the device is a VBATT referred control pin that shuts down the converter with the pin tied to ground, or enables the converter with the pin tied to VBATT. When the converter is shutdown the power switch is opened and all circuit biasing is extinguished leaving only junction leakage currents on supply pins 3 and 5. The output voltage will droop to one diode drop below the battery voltage through the rectifying diode. After pin 4 is brought high, the startup circuit is enabled and starts pumping up the output until REFREADY hands over control to the internal regulator. The SP6641 feed forward off-time control delivers more load current than constant off-time control because the input battery voltage drops during its life cycle. The term (IPK - KOFF/2L) is the average current delivered to the output capacitor during the discharge phase. This is constant with respect to input and output voltage. With constant off-time control, the average discharge current term becomes (IPK-TOFF*(VOUT-VIN)/2L), which decreases as the input voltage drops. Table 1 illustrates the average inductor current delivered to the load during discharge versus the input voltage. The SP6641 feed forward offtime control and the constant off-time control are compared. For purposes of illustration, the off times of each control scheme are normalized at a typical two cell alkaline input voltage of 2.6V. The values used in Table 1 are: IPK = 0.33A L = 22H VOUT= 3.3V TOFF (SP6641) = 1.5V*s/(3.3-VIN) TOFF (constant) = 2.14s SP6641 TOFF 5.00s 2.14s 1.15s 0.75s 0.65s Avg Il 0.30A 0.30A 0.30A 0.30A 0.30A 3.0 2.6 2.0 1.3 1.0 Constant TOFF TOFF 2.14s 2.14s 2.14s 2.14s 2.14s Avg Il 0.32A 0.30A 0.27A 0.23A 0.22A VIN Table 1- Average IL vs. Input Voltage The following equation defines the burst mode frequency under heavy load conditions: F BURST = ( VOUT - VIN KOFF )( VIN - VC VOUT + VD -VC ) where: VD = Forward schottky drop, (0.4V, typ) VC = Average charging switch drop, Rnmos*IPK, typically 0.1V Rev. 8/27/01, *Patent Pending SP6641A/6641B Low Quiescent Current Boost Regulator (c) Copyright 2001 Sipex Corporation 5 PRELIMINARY INFORMATION PACKAGE: 5 Lead SOT23 b C L e E e1 D C L A A2 A C L a 0.20 DATUM 'A' C A1 A .10 E1 L 2 SYMBOL A A1 A2 b C D E E1 L e e1 a MIN 0.90 0.00 0.90 0.25 0.09 2.80 2.60 1.50 0.35 0.95ref 1.90ref 0 O MAX 1.45 0.15 1.30 0.50 0.20 3.10 3.00 1.75 0.55 10 O Rev. 8/27/01, *Patent Pending SP6641A/6641B Low Quiescent Current Boost Regulator (c) Copyright 2001 Sipex Corporation 6 PRELIMINARY INFORMATION ORDERING INFORMATION Part Number Temperature Range Package Type SP6641AEK-3.3 ....................................... -40C to 85C ......................................... 5-Pin SOT-23 SP6641AEK-3.3/TR ................................. -40C to 85C .................
