(1) setting a high value for r1 and r2 can achieve a low quiescent current. however, a resistance that is too high is sensitive to noise and leads to a low loop bandwidth. set the r1 value between 499k ? and 1m ? for good leakage, stability, and transient balance.
MP3415?3.6a, 1mhz step-up converter with output disconnect MP3415 rev. 1.0 www.monolithicpower.com 13 3/29/2016 mps proprietary information. patent protec ted. unauthorized photocopy and duplication prohibited. ? 2016 mps. all rights reserved. current sensing in a linear charge condition, the high-side, p- channel mosfet current is sensed and compared with the current limit threshold. the compared output manages the linear charge current. in boost switching condition, lossless current sensing converts the n-channel mosfet switch current signal to a voltage that is summed with the internal slope compensation. the summed signal is compared with the ea output to provide a peak-current control command for pwm. the peak switch current is limited to approximately 4.2a. the switch- current signal is blanked internally for 60ns to enhance noise immunity. output disconnect the MP3415 is designed to allow for true output disconnect by eliminating body diode conduction of the internal p-channel mosfet rectifier. this allows v out to reach 0v during shutdown, drawing zero current from the input source. this also allows for inrush current limiting at start-up, which minimizes the surge current seen by the input supply. to obtain the advantages of the output disconnect, there cannot be an external schottky diode connected between sw and vout. overload (olp) and short-circuit (scp) protections when an overload or a short circuit occurs, the output voltage drops. if v out drops below v in - 0.3v, the MP3415 stops for about 50s and then runs in a linear charge mode. if the overload or short circuit is removed, the MP3415 restarts under ss control automatically. over-voltage protection (ovp) if v out is higher than the typical 6v threshold, the boost switching stops. after the output drops to about 5.7v, the switching recovers automatically. this protects the internal power mosfet from over-voltage stress. thermal shutdown (tsd) the device has an internal temperature monitor. if the die temperature exceeds 155c, the converter turns off. once the temperature drops below 130c, the converter restarts.
MP3415?3.6a, 1mhz step-up converter with output disconnect MP3415 rev. 1.0 www.monolithicpower.com 14 3/29/2016 mps proprietary information. patent protec ted. unauthorized photocopy and duplication prohibited. ? 2016 mps. all rights reserved. application information selecting the input capacitor low equivalent series resistance (esr) input capacitors reduce input switching noise and peak current drawn from the input power. ceramic capacitors are recommended for input decoupling and should be placed as close to the device as possible. use a ceramic capacitor larger than 10 f to limit the v in ripple. output capacitor selection to ensure stability over the full operating range, the output capacitor requires a minimum capacitance value of 22 f at the programmed output voltage. a higher capacitance value may be required to lower the output and transient ripple. x5r or x7r capacitors are recommended for their low esr values. supposing the esr is zero, calculate the minimum output capacitor value needed to support the ripple in pwm mode with equation (2): o out(max) in(min) o sout(max) i(v v ) c fv ? v ?? ? ?? (2) where v out(max) is the maximum output voltage, v in(min) is the minimum input voltage, i o is the output current, f s is the switching frequency, and ? v is the acceptable output ripple. a 1 f ceramic capacitor is recommended to be placed between v out and pgnd with a short loop to reduce spikes on the sw node and improve emi performance. selecting the inductor the MP3415 utilizes small, surface-mounted chip inductors for their 1mhz switching frequencies. inductor values between 1 h and 2.2 h are suitable for most applications. inductors with larger values allow for slightly greater output current capabilities by reducing the inductor ripple current. however, a larger inductance value increases component size. the minimum inductance value can be calculated with equation (3): in(min) out(max) in(min) out(max) l s v(v v) l vif ? ? ? ?? ? (3) where ? i l is the acceptable inductor current ripple. typically, the inductor current ripple is set to 30% to 50% of the maximum inductor current. maintain a low series resistance of the inductor (dcr) to reduce resistive power loss. the saturated current (i sat ) should be large enough to support the peak current. sw rc snubber when the MP3415 is used to generate an output of 4v or higher, an rc snubber should be added to protect the internal mosfet from over-voltage caused by the sw spike. the recommended rc snubber parameters are 1 ? and 1nf (see figure 3).
