AAT2504
Adjustable 3-Channel Regulator General Description
The AAT2504 is a three-channel regulator consisting of a step-down converter with an input voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V plus two low dropout (LDO) linear regulators. The two LDOs have an input voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V, making them well-suited for post regulating from the step-down converter. The step-down converter optimizes power efficiency throughout the load range. Pulling the MODE/SYNC pin high enables "PWM Only" operation, maintaining constant frequency and low output ripple across the operating range. Alternatively, the converter may be synchronized to an external clock to the MODE/ SYNC pin. The step-down converter delivers up to 800mA of output current. The switching frequency is 2MHz, minimizing the size of external components. The two LDOs (LDOA/LDOB) have independent inputs and are capable of delivering up to 300mA each. A Power-OK (POK) function provides an open drain output signal when LDOA is within regulation. Both LDOs feature low quiescent current and a low dropout voltage. The output voltages for both LDOs are adjustable to as low as 0.6V. The linear regulators have independent Enable pins. Typical no load quiescent current is a low 80A when the stepdown converter and LDOs are enabled. The AAT2504 is available in a Pb-free 3x4mm QFN34-20 package and is rated over the -40C to +85C temperature range.

Functional Description
The AAT2504 is a high performance power management IC comprised of a step-down converter and two linear regulators. The step-down converter operates in both fixed and variable frequency modes for high efficiency performance. The switching frequency is 2MHz, minimizing the size of the inductor. The converter requires only three external power components (CIN, COUT, and L). Each LDO can deliver up to 300mA. Each regulator has independent input voltage and enable pins and operates with ceramic capacitors.
operation maintains high efficiency under light load conditions (typically <50mA) when MODE/SYNC is grounded. The MODE/SYNC pin tied high allows optional "PWM Only" operation. This maintains constant frequency and low output ripple across all load conditions. Alternatively, by connecting an external clock to the AAT2504's MODE/SYNC pin, the internal clock is disabled. The external synchronization must stay between 1MHz and 3MHz. The current through the P-channel MOSFET (high side) is sensed for current loop control, as well as short-circuit and overload protection. A fixed slope compensation signal is added to the sensed current to maintain stability for duty cycles greater than 50%. The peak current mode loop appears as a voltage-programmed current source in parallel with the output capacitor. The output of the voltage error amplifier programs the current mode loop for the necessary peak switch current to force a constant output voltage for all load and line conditions. Internal loop compen11
Switch-Mode Step-Down Converter
The switching regulator is a monolithic step-down converter operating with input voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V. Power devices are sized for 800mA current capability and achieves over 95% efficiency. The internal oscillator operates at 2MHz, minimizing the cost and size of external components. Light Load

sation terminates the transconductance voltage error amplifier output. The internal error amplifier reference is fixed at 0.9V. A logic low on the EN pin shuts the converter down and makes it consume less than 1A of current. Soft start increases the inductor current limit point in discrete steps when the input voltage or enable input is applied. It limits the current surge seen at the input and eliminates output voltage overshoot. For overload conditions, the peak input current is limited. As load impedance decreases and the output voltage falls closer to zero, more power is dissipated internally, raising the device temperature. Thermal protection completely disables switching when internal dissipation becomes excessive, protecting the device from damage. The junction over-temperature threshold is 140C with 15C of hysteresis.
Applications Information
Step-Down Converter Inductor Selection
The step-down converter uses peak current mode control with slope compensation to maintain stability for duty cycles greater than 50%. The output inductor value must be selected so the inductor current down slope meets the internal slope compensation requirements. The internal slope compensation for the AAT2504 step-down converter is 0.51A/sec. This equates to a slope compensation that is 75% of the inductor current down slope for a 1.5V output and 2.2H inductor.

0.75 VO 0.75 1.5V A = = 0.51 L 2.2H sec
Linear Regulators
The two linear regulators are high performance LDOs where each LDO sources 300mA of current. For added flexibility, both regulators have independent input voltages operating from 1.8V to 5.5V. An external feedback pin for each LDO allows programming the output voltage from 3.6V to 0.6V. The regulators have thermal protection in case of adverse operating conditions. LDOA features an integrated Power-OK comparator which indicates when the output is out of regulation. The POK is an open drain output and it is held low when the AAT2504 is in shutdown mode.
Manufacturer's specifications list both the inductor DC current rating, which is a thermal limitation, and the peak current rating, which is determined by the saturation characteristics. The inductor should not show any appreciable saturation under normal load conditions. Some inductors may meet the peak and average current ratings yet result in excessive losses due to a high DCR. Always consider the losses associated with the DCR and its effect on the total converter efficiency when selecting an inductor. The 2.2H CDRH2D14 series Sumida inductor has a 94m DCR and a 1.5A DC current rating. At full 800mA load, the inductor DC loss is 60mW which gives a 4.16% loss in efficiency for a 800mA, 1.8V output.
Input Capacitor Under-Voltage Lockout
Internal bias of all circuits is controlled via the VIN pin. Under-voltage lockout guarantees sufficient VIN bias and proper operation of all internal circuits prior to activation. Select a 4.7F to 10F X7R or X5R ceramic capacitor for the input of the step-down converter. To estimate the required input capacitor size, determine the acceptable input ripple level (VPP) and solve for CIN. The calculated value varies with input voltage and is a maximum when VIN is double the output voltage.
Over-Temperature Protection
Thermal protection completely disables switching when internal dissipation becomes excessive. The junction over-temperature threshold is 140C with 15C of hysteresis. Once an over-temperature or over-current fault condition is removed, the output voltage automatically recovers.

equations and is a maximum when VO is twice VIN. This is why the input voltage ripple and the input capacitor RMS current ripple are a maximum at 50% duty cycle. The input capacitor provides a low impedance loop for the edges of pulsed current drawn by the AAT2504. Low ESR/ESL X7R and X5R ceramic capacitors are ideal for this function. To minimize stray inductance, the capacitor should be placed as closely as possible to the IC. This keeps the high frequency content of the input current localized, minimizing EMI and input voltage ripple. A laboratory test set-up typically consists of two long wires running from the bench power supply to the evaluation board input voltage pins. The inductance of these wires, along with the low-ESR ceramic input capacitor, can create a high Q network that may affect converter performance. This problem often becomes apparent in the form of excessive ringing in the output voltage during load transients. Errors in the loop phase and gain measurements can also result. Since the inductance of a short PCB trace feeding the input voltage is significantly lower than the power leads from the bench power supply, most applications do not exhibit this problem. In applications where the input power source lead inductance cannot be reduced to a level that does not affect the converter performance, a high ESR tantalum or aluminum electrolytic should be placed in parallel with the low ESR, ESL bypass ceramic. This dampens the high Q network and stabilizes the system.

Always examine the ceramic capacitor DC voltage coefficient characteristics when selecting the proper value. For example, the capacitance of a 10F, 6.3V, X5R ceramic capacitor with 5.0V DC applied is actually about 6F. The maximum input capacitor RMS current is:

Output Capacitor
The output capacitor limits the output ripple and provides holdup during large load transitions. A 4.7F to 10F X5R or X7R ceramic capacitor typically provides sufficient bulk capacitance to stabilize the output during large load transitions and has the ESR and ESL characteristics necessary for low output ripple. The output voltage droop due to a load transient is dominated by the capacitance of the ceramic output capacitor. During a step increase in load current, the ceramic output capacitor alone supplies the load current until the loop responds. Within two or three switching cycles, the loop responds and the inductor current increases to match the load current demand. The relationship of the output voltage droop during the three switching cycles to the output capacitance can be estimated by:

Once the average inductor current increases to the DC load level, the output voltage recovers. The above equation establishes a limit on the minimum value for the output capacitor with respect to load transients. The internal voltage loop compensation also limits the minimum output capacitor value to 4.7F. This is due to its effect on the loop crossover frequency (bandwidth), phase margin, and gain margin. Increased output capacitance will reduce the crossover frequency with greater phase margin.

Thermal Calculations
There are three types of losses associated with the AAT2504 step-down converter: switching losses, conduction losses, and quiescent current losses. Conduction losses are associated with the RDS(ON) characteristics of the power output switching devices. Switching losses are dominated by the gate charge of the power output switching devices. At full load, assuming continuous conduction mode (CCM), a simplified form of the LDO losses is given by:
PTOTAL = IO2 * (RDSON(HS) * VO + RDSON(LS) * [VIN - VO]) VIN
Adjustable Output Resistor Selection
The output voltage on the step-down converter is programmed with external resistors R2 and R6. To limit the bias current required for the external feedback resistor string while maintaining good noise immunity, the minimum suggested value for R6 is 59k. Although a larger value will further reduce quiescent current, it will also increase the impedance of the feedback node, making it more sensitive to external noise and interference. Table 2 summa-

IQ is the step-down converter quiescent current. The term tsw is used to estimate the full load stepdown converter switching losses. For the condition where the step-down converter is in dropout at 100% duty cycle, the total device dissipation reduces to:
PTOTAL = IO2 * RDSON(HS) + IQ * VIN
performance. The AAT2504 has been specifically designed to function with very low ESR ceramic capacitors. For best performance, ceramic capacitors are recommended. Typical output capacitor values for maximum output current conditions range from 1F to 10F. Applications utilizing the exceptionally low output noise and optimum power supply ripple rejection characteristics of the AAT2504 should use 2.2F or greater for COUT. If desired, COUT may be increased without limit. In low output current applications where output load is less than 10mA, the minimum value for COUT can be as low as 0.47F.
Since RDS(ON), quiescent current, and switching losses all vary with input voltage, the total losses should be investigated over the complete input voltage range. Given the total losses, the maximum junction temperature can be derived from the JA for the QFN34-20 package which is 50C/W.
TJ(MAX) = PTOTAL * JA + TAMB
Capacitor Characteristics
Ceramic composition capacitors are highly recommended over all other types of capacitors for use with the AAT2504. Ceramic capacitors offer many advantages over their tantalum and aluminum electrolytic counterparts. A ceramic capacitor typically has very low ESR, is lower cost, has a smaller PCB footprint, and is non-polarized. Line and load transient response of the LDO regulator is improved by using low ESR ceramic capacitors. Since ceramic capacitors are non-polarized, they are not prone to incorrect connection damage.
LDO Linear Regulator Input Capacitor
A 1F or larger capacitor is typically recommended for CIN in most applications. A CIN capacitor is not required for basic LDO regulator operation; however, if the AAT2504 is physically located more than three centimeters from an input power source, a CIN capacitor will be needed for stable operation. CIN should be located as closely to the device VLDO pins as practically possible. CIN values greater than 1F will offer superior input line transient response and will assist in maximizing the highest possible power supply ripple rejection. Ceramic, tantalum, or aluminum electrolytic capacitors may be selected for CIN. There is no specific capacitor ESR requirement for CIN; however, ceramic capacitors are recommended for CIN due to their inherent capability over tantalum capacitors to withstand input current surges from low impedance sources such as batteries in portable devices.
Equivalent Series Resistance
ESR is a very important characteristic to consider when selecting a capacitor. ESR is the internal series resistance associated with a capacitor that includes lead resistance, internal connections, size and area, material composition, and ambient temperature. Typically, capacitor ESR is measured in milliohms for ceramic capacitors and can range to more than several ohms for tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors.
Ceramic Capacitor Materials
Ceramic capacitors less than 0.1F are typically made from NPO or C0G materials. NPO and C0G materials generally have tight tolerance and are very stable over temperature. Larger capacitor values are usually composed of X7R, X5R, Z5U, or Y5V dielectric materials. NPO and C0G material types are not recommended for use with LDO regulators since the
Output Capacitor
For proper load voltage regulation and operational stability, a capacitor is required between pins OUTA, OUTB, and GND. The COUT capacitor connection to the LDO regulator ground pin should be made as direct as practically possible for maximum device

capacitor tolerance can vary more than 50% over the operating temperature range of the device. A 2.2F Y5V capacitor could be reduced to 1F over temperature; this could cause problems for circuit operation. X7R and X5R dielectrics are much more desirable. The temperature tolerance of X7R dielectric is better than 15%. Capacitor area is another contributor to ESR. Capacitors which are physically large in size will have a lower ESR when compared to a smaller sized capacitor of an equivalent material and capacitance value. These larger devices can improve circuit transient response when compared to an equal value capacitor in a smaller package size. Consult capacitor vendor datasheets carefully when selecting capacitors for LDO regulators.
POK Output
LDOA of the AAT2504 features an integrated Power OK comparator which can be used as an error flag. The POK open drain output goes low when output voltage is 10% (typ) below its nominal regulation voltage. Additionally, any time LDOA is in shutdown, the POK output is pulled low. Connect a pull-up resistor from POK to OUTA.
Enable Function
The AAT2504 features an LDO regulator enable/disable function. Each LDO has its own dedicated enable pin. These pins (ENA, ENB) are active high and are compatible with CMOS logic. To assure the LDO regulators will switch on, ENA/B must be greater than 1.4V. The LDO regulators will shut down when the voltage on the ENA/B pins falls below 0.6V. In shutdown, the LDO regulators will consume less than 1.0A of current. If the enable function is not needed in a specific application, it may be tied to VIN to keep the LDO regulator in a continuously on state.
Adjustable Output Resistor Selection
The output voltage on the linear regulator is programmed with external resistors: R4 and R7 for LDOA and R5 and R8 for LDOB. Table 3 summarizes the resistor values for various output voltages with R4 and R5 set to either 59k for good noise immunity or 221k for reduced no load input current. LDO VOUT (V)

Thermal Protection
Each of the two LDOs of the AAT2504 has an internal thermal protection circuit which will turn on when the device die temperature exceeds 140C. The LDO regulator outputs will remain in a shutdown state until the internal die temperature falls back below the 125C trip point.

No-Load Stability
The LDOs in the AAT2504 are designed to maintain output voltage regulation and stability under operational no-load conditions. This is an important characteristic for applications where the output current may drop to zero.

Reverse Output-to-Input Voltage Conditions and Protection
Under normal operating conditions, a parasitic diode exists between the output and input of the LDO regulator. The input voltage should always remain greater than the output load voltage maintaining a reverse bias on the internal parasitic diode. Conditions where VOUT might exceed VIN should be avoided since this would forward bias the internal parasitic diode and allow excessive current flow into the VOUT pin, possibly damaging the LDO regulator. In applications where there is a possibility of VOUT exceeding VIN for brief amounts of time during normal operation, the use of a larger value CIN capacitor is highly recommended. A larger value of CIN with respect to COUT will effect a slower CIN decay rate during shutdown, thus preventing VOUT from exceeding VIN. In applications where there is a greater danger of VOUT exceeding VIN for extended periods of time, it is recommended to place a Schottky diode across VIN to VOUT (connecting the cathode to VIN and anode to VOUT). The Schottky diode forward voltage should be less than 0.45V. package power dissipation and the internal preset thermal limit of the device. In order to obtain high operating currents, careful device layout and circuit operating conditions need to be taken into account. The following discussions will assume the LDO regulator is mounted on a printed circuit board utilizing the minimum recommended footprint as stated in the layout considerations section of this document. At any given ambient temperature (TA), the maximum package power dissipation can be determined by the following equation:
PD(MAX) =
TJ(MAX) - TA JA
Thermal Considerations and High Output Current Applications
The LDOs of the AAT2504 are designed to deliver continuous output load currents of 300mA each under normal operation. This is desirable for circuit applications where there might be a brief high inrush current during a power-on event. The limiting characteristic for the maximum output load current safe operating area is essentially
Constants for the AAT2504 are TJ(MAX) (the maximum junction temperature for the device, which is 125C) and JA = 50C/W (the package thermal resistance). Typically, maximum conditions are calculated at the maximum operating temperature of TA = 85C and under normal ambient conditions where TA = 25C. Given TA = 85C, the maximum package power dissipation is 800mW. At TA = 25C, the maximum package power dissipation is 2W. The maximum continuous output current for the AAT2504 is a function of the package power dissipation and the input-to-output voltage drop across the LDO regulator. To determine the maximum output current for a given output voltage, refer to the following equation. This calculation accounts for the total power dissipation of the LDO regulator, including that caused by ground current.
PD(MAX) = [(VIN - VOUTA)IOUTA + (VIN * IGND)] + [(VIN - VOUTB)IOUTB + (VIN * IGND)]

Layout
The suggested PCB layout for the AAT2504 is shown in Figures 1 and 2. The following guidelines should be used to help ensure a proper layout. 1. The input capacitors (C4, C7, C8, and C9) should connect as closely as possible to VIN, VLDOA, VLDOB, VP, and PGND. 2. The output capacitor (C5, and C6) of the LDOs connect as closely as possible to OUT. C2 and L1 should be connected as closely as possible. The connection of L1 to the LX pin should be as short as possible. Do not make the node small by using a narrow trace. The trace should be kept wide, direct, and short. 3. The feedback trace should be separate from any power trace and connect as closely as possible to the load point. Sensing along a highcurrent load trace will degrade DC load regulation. Feedback resistors should be placed as closely as possible to VOUT to minimize the length of the high impedance feedback trace. If possible, they should also be placed away from the LX (switching node) and inductor to improve noise immunity. 4. The resistance of the trace from the load return to the PGND should be kept to a minimum. This will help to minimize any error in DC regulation due to differences in the potential of the internal signal ground and the power ground. 5. Ensure all ground pins are tied to the ground plane. No pins should be left floating. For maximum power dissipation, it is recommended that the exposed pad (EP) must be soldered to a good conductive PCB ground plane layer to further increase local heat dissipation.
