and it is reduced to 4.4 (typ.) at light load condition to reduce gate drive loss. the smart ldo can select its output voltage according to the load condition by sensing switch node (sw) voltage. at light load condition when part of the inductor current flows in the reverse direction (dcm=1) , v sw > 0 on ldrv falling edge in a switching cycle. if this case happens for consecutive 256 switching cycles, the smart ldo reduces its output to 4. 4. if in any one of the 256 cycles, vsw < 0 on ldrv falling edge, the counter is reset and ldo voltage doesnt change. on the other hand, if vsw < 0 on ldrv falling edge (dcm=0) , ldo output is increased to 6.4v. a hysteresis band is added to vsw comparison to avoid chattering. figure 1 1a shows the timing diagram. whenever device turns on, ldo always starts with 6.4v, then goes to 4.4v /6.4v depending upon the load condition. for internally biased single rail operation, vin pin should be connected to pvin pin , as shown in figure 11b. if external bias voltage is used, vin pin should be connected to vcc/ldo_out pin, as shown in figure 11c. vcc / ldo 0 0 il 256/ fs ... ... ... 6 . 4 v 6 . 4 v 4 . 4 v ... figure 11a : time diagram for smart ldo ir3898 vcc/ ldo_out pgnd vin vin pvin figure 11b : internally bi ased single rail operation ext vcc vin ir3898 vcc/ ldo_out pgnd vin pvin figure 11c : use external bias voltage output voltage track ing and sequencing ir 3898 can accommodate user programmable tracking and/or sequencing options using vp, vref, enable, and power good pins. in the block diagram presented on page 3, the error - amplifier (e/a) has been depicted with three

- 43 - august 08, 2012 | data sheet | rev 3.3 43 ir3898 6a highly integrated supirbuck tm single - input voltage, synchronous buck regulator pd - 9766 2 solder resist ? ir recommends that the larger power or land area pads are solder mask defined (smd.) this allows the underlying copper traces to be as large as possible, which helps in terms of current carrying capability and device cooling capability. ? when using smd pads, the underlying copper traces should be at least 0.05mm larger (on each edge) than the solder mask window, in order to accommodate any layer to layer misalignment. (i.e. 0.1mm in x & y.) ? however, for the smaller signal type leads around the edge of the device, ir recommends that these are non solder mask defined or copper defined. ? when using nsmd pads, the solder resist window should be larger than the copper pad by at least 0.025mm on each edge, (i.e. 0.05mm in x&y,) in order to accommodate any la yer to layer misalignment. ? ensure that the solder resist in - between the smaller signal lead areas are at least 0.15mm wide, due to the high x/y aspect ratio of the solder mask strip. figure 51: solder resist * contact i nternational r ectifier to receive an electronic pcb library file in your preferred format
- 44 - august 08, 2012 | data sheet | rev 3.3 44 ir3898 6a highly integrated supirbuck tm single - input voltage, synchronous buck regulator pd - 9766 2 stencil design ? stencils for pqfn can be used with thicknesses of 0.100 - 0.250mm (0.004 - 0.010"). stencils thinner than 0.100mm are unsuitabl e because they deposit insufficient solder paste to make good solder joints with the ground pad; high reductions sometimes create similar problems. stencils in the range of 0.125mm - 0.200mm (0.005 - 0.008"), with suitable reductions, give the best results. ? evaluations have shown that the best overall performance is achieved using the stencil design shown in following figure. this design is for a stencil thickness of 0.127mm (0.005"). the reduction should be adjusted for stencils of other thicknesses. figure 52: stencil pad spacing (all dimensions in mm) * contact i nternational r ectifier to receive an electronic pcb library file in your preferred format
