It operates by taking a DC input voltage and regulating a higher DC output voltage. Figure 2 shows a typical circuit. Boost regulation is achieved by turning on an internal switch, which draws current through the inductor (L1). When the switch turns off, the inductor’s magnetic field collapses, causing the current to be discharged into the output capacitor through an external Schottky diode (D1). Voltage regulation is achieved through pulse-width modulation (PWM). 10µH 6.65K MIC2601/2 VIN VIN VOUT EN SW FB PGND 2.2µF 10µF SS 0.1µF VDD AGND 0.1µF GND GND Figure 2. Typical Application Circuit Duty Cycle Considerations Duty cycle refers to the switch on-to-off time ratio and can be calculated as follows for a boost regulator: OUT IN V V D − = 1 The duty cycle required for voltage conversion should be less than the maximum duty cycle of 85%. Also, in light load conditions, where the input voltage is close to the output voltage, the minimum duty cycle can cause pulse skipping. This is due to the energy stored in the inductor causing the output to overshoot slightly over the regulated output voltage. During the next cycle, the error amplifier detects the output as being high and skips the following pulse. This effect can be reduced by increasing the minimum load or by increasing the inductor value. Increasing the inductor value reduces peak current, which in turn reduces energy transfer in each cycle. Overvoltage Protection For the MIC2601/2 there is an over voltage protection function. If the output voltage overshoots the set voltage by 15% when feedback is high during input higher than output, turn on, load transients, line transients, load disconnection etc. the MIC2601/2 OVP ckt will shut the switch off saving itself and other sensitive circuitry downstream. Component Selection Inductor Inductor selection is a balance between efficiency, stability, cost, size, and rated current. For most applications, a 10µH is the recommended inductor value; it is usually a good balance between these considerations. Large inductance values reduce the peak-to-peak ripple current, affecting efficiency. This has an effect of reducing both the DC losses and the transition losses. There is also a secondary effect of an inductor’s DC resistance (DCR). The DCR of an inductor will be higher for more inductance in the same package size. This is due to the longer windings required for an increase in inductance. Since the majority of input current (minus the MIC2601 operating current) is passed through the inductor, higher DCR inductors will reduce efficiency. To maintain stability, increasing inductor size will have to be met with an increase in output capacitance. This is due to the unavoidable “right half plane zero” effect for the continuous current boost converter topology. The frequency at which the right half plane zero occurs can be calculated as follows: ( ) O O I L V D FRHPZ ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ = π 2 2 The right half plane zero has the undesirable effect of increasing gain, while decreasing phase. This requires that the loop gain is rolled off before this has significant effect on the total loop response. This can be accomplished by either reducing inductance (increasing RHPZ frequency) or increasing the output capacitor value (decreasing loop gain). Output Capacitor Output capacitor selection is also a trade-off between performance, size, and cost. Increasing output capacitance will lead to an improved transient response, but also an increase in size and cost. X5R or X7R dielectric ceramic capacitors are recommended for designs with the MIC2601/2. Y5V values may be used, but to offset their tolerance over temperature, more capacitance is required. Diode Selection The MIC2601/2 requires an external diode for operation. A Schottky diode is recommended for most applications due to their lower forward voltage drop and reverse recovery time. Ensure the diode selected can deliver the peak inductor current and the maximum reverse voltage is rated greater than the output voltage. Input capacitor A minimum 2.2μF ceramic capacitor is recommended for designing with the MIC2601/2. Increasing input capacitance will improve performance and greater noise |
