1.4MHz, 1A Synchronous Step-Down
Converter
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AX3513 is a high efficiency monolithic synchronous buck regulator using a constant frequency, current mode architecture. The device is available in an adjustable version. Supply current with no load is 250uA and drops to <1uA in shutdown. The 2.5V to 6V input voltage range makes AX3513 ideally suited for single Li-Ion, two to four AA battery-powered applications. 100% duty cycle provides low dropout operation, extending battery life in portable systems. PWM pulse skipping mode operation provides very low output ripple voltage for noise sensitive applications. Switching frequency is internally set at 1.4MHz, allowing the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors. The internal synchronous switch increases efficiency and decreases need of an external schottky diode. Low output voltages are easily supported with the 0.6V feedback reference voltage. AX3513 is available in small TSOT23-5L and DFN-6L packages. FEATURES

FUNCTION DESCRIPTIONS
Operation
AX3513 is a monolithic switching mode step-down DC-DC converter. It utilizes internal MOSFETs to achieve high efficiency and can generate very low output voltage by using internal reference at 0.6V. It operates at a fixed switching frequency, and uses the slope compensated current mode architecture. This step-down DC-DC Converter supplies minimum 1000mA output current at input voltage range from 2.5V to 5.5V.
Current Mode PWM Control
Slope compensated current mode PWM control provides stable switching and cycle-by-cycle current limit for excellent load and line transient responses and protection of the internal main switch (P-Ch MOSFET) and synchronous rectifier (N-CH MOSFET). During normal operation, the internal P-Ch MOSFET is turned on for a certain time to ramp the inductor current at each rising edge of the internal oscillator, and switched off when the peak inductor current is above the error voltage. The current comparator, I COMP, limits the peak inductor current. When the main switch is off, the synchronous rectifier will be turned on immediately and stay on until either the inductor current starts to reverse, as indicated by the current reversal comparator, I ZERO , or the beginning of the next clock cycle.

Inductor Selection
For most designs, the AX3513 operates with inductors of 2.2μH to 3.3μH. Low inductance values are physically smaller but require faster switching, which results in some efficiency loss. The inductor value can be derived from the following equation:

For output voltages above 2.0V, when light-load efficiency is important, the minimum recommended inductor is 2.7μH. For optimum voltage-positioning load transients, choose an inductor with DC series resistance in the 50m ? to 150m ? range. For higher efficiency at heavy loads (above 200mA), or minimal load regulation (but some transient overshoot), the resistance should be kept below 100m ?. The DC current rating of the inductor should be at least equal to the maximum load current plus half the ripple current to prevent core saturation (1000mA+100mA).
Input Capacitor Selection
The input capacitor reduces the surge current drawn from the input and switching noise from the device. The input capacitor impedance at the switching frequency shall be less than input source impedance to prevent high frequency switching current passing to the input. A low ESR input capacitor sized for maximum RMS current must be used. Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics are highly recommended because of their low ESR and small temperature coefficients. A 4.7μF ceramic capacitor for most applications is sufficient.
Output Capacitor Selection
The output capacitor is required to be 10uF to keep the output voltage ripple small and to ensure regulation loop stability. The output capacitor must have low impedance at the switching frequency. Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics are recommended due to their low ESR and high ripple current.
Compensation Capacitor Selection
The compensation capacitors for increasing phase margin provide additional stability. It is required 15pF, Please refer to Demo Board Schematic to design.
