1A 200kHz SuperSwitcherTM Buck Regulator
Final Information
General Description
The MIC4680 SuperSwitcherTM is an easy-to-use fixed or
adjustable output voltage step-down (buck) switch-mode
voltage regulator. The 200kHz MIC4680 achieves up to 1.3A
of continuous output current over a wide input range in a
8-lead SOP (small outline package).
The MIC4680 is available in 3.3V and 5V fixed output ver-
sions or adjustable output down to 1.25V.
The MIC4680 has an input voltage range of 4V to 34V, with
excellent line, load, and transient response. The regulator
performs cycle-by-cycle current limiting and thermal shut-
down for protection under fault conditions. In shutdown
mode, the regulator draws less than 2
A of standby current.
The MIC4680 SuperSwitcherTM regulator requires a mini-
mum number of external components and can operate using
a standard series of inductors and capacitors. Frequency
compensation is provided internally for fast transient re-
sponse and ease of use.
The MIC4680 is available in the 8-lead SOP with a
40
C to +125
C junction temperature range.

MIC4680

Functional Description
The MIC4680 is a variable duty cycle switch-mode regulator
with an internal power switch. Refer to the block diagrams.
Supply Voltage
The MIC4680 operates from a +4V to +34V unregulated
input. Highest efficiency operation is from a supply voltage
around +15V. See the efficiency curves.
Enable/Shutdown
The shutdown (
SHDN
) input is TTL compatible. Ground the
input if unused. A logic-low enables the regulator. A logic-
high shuts down the internal regulator which reduces the
current to typically 1.5
A when V
SHDN
= V
IN
= 12V and 30
A
when V
SHDN
= 5V. See "Shutdown Input Behavior: Shutdown
Hysteresis."
Feedback
Fixed-voltage versions of the regulator have an internal
resistive divider from the feedback (
FB
) pin. Connect
FB
directly to the output voltage.
Adjustable versions require an external resistive voltage
divider from the output voltage to ground, center tapped to the
FB
pin. See Figure 6b for recommended resistor values.
Duty Cycle Control
A fixed-gain error amplifier compares the feedback signal
with a 1.23V bandgap voltage reference. The resulting error
amplifier output voltage is compared to a 200kHz sawtooth
waveform to produce a voltage controlled variable duty cycle
output.
A higher feedback voltage increases the error amplifier
output voltage. A higher error amplifier voltage (comparator
inverting input) causes the comparator to detect only the
peaks of the sawtooth, reducing the duty cycle of the com-
parator output. A lower feedback voltage increases the duty
cycle. The MIC4680 uses a voltage-mode control architec-
ture.
Output Switching
When the internal switch is on, an increasing current flows
from the supply V
IN,
through external storage inductor L1, to
output capacitor C
OUT
and the load. Energy is stored in the
inductor as the current increases with time.
When the internal switch is turned off, the collapse of the
magnetic field in L1 forces current to flow through fast
recovery diode D1, charging C
OUT
.
Output Capacitor
External output capacitor C
OUT
provides stabilization and
reduces ripple. See "Bode Plots" for additional information.
Return Paths
During the on portion of the cycle, the output capacitor and
load currents return to the supply ground. During the off
portion of the cycle, current is being supplied to the output
capacitor and load by storage inductor L1, which means that
D1 is part of the high-current return path.

Minimum Copper/Maximum Current Method
Using Figure 3, for a given input voltage range, determine the
minimum ground-plane heat-sink area required for the
application's maximum output current. Figure 3 assumes a
constant die temperature of 75

Figure 3. Output Current vs. Ground Plane Area
When designing with the MIC4680, it is a good practice to
connect pins 5 through 8 to the largest ground plane that is
practical for the specific design.
Checking the Maximum Junction Temperature:
For this example, with an output power (P
OUT
) of 5W, (5V
output at 1A maximum with V
IN
= 12V) and 65
C maximum
ambient temperature, what is the maximum junction tem-
perature?
Referring to the "Typical Characteristics: 5V Output Effi-
ciency" graph, read the efficiency (
) for 1A output current at
V
IN
= 12V or perform you own measurement.
= 79%
The efficiency is used to determine how much of the output
power (P
OUT
) is dissipated in the regulator circuit (P
D
).

= 1.33W
A worst-case rule of thumb is to assume that 80% of the total
output power dissipation is in the MIC4680 (P
D(IC)
) and 20%
is in the diode-inductor-capacitor circuit.

for the MIC4680's power-SOP-8 is

Thermal Considerations
The MIC4680 SuperSwitcher features the power-SOP-8.
This package has a standard 8-lead small-outline package
profile but with much higher power dissipation than a stan-
dard SOP-8. The MIC4680 SuperSwitcher is the first dc-to-dc
converter to take full advantage of this package.
The reason that the power SOP-8 has higher power dissipa-
tion (lower thermal resistance) is that pins 5 though 8 and the
die-attach paddle are a single piece of metal. The die is
attached to the paddle with thermally conductive adhesive.
This provides a low thermal resistance path from the junction
of the die to the ground pins. This design significantly im-
proves package power dissipation by allowing excellent heat
transfer through the ground leads to the printed circuit board.
One of the limitation of the maximum output current on any
MIC4680 design is the junction-to-ambient thermal resis-
tance (
JA
) of the design (package and ground plane).
Examining
JA
in more detail:
JA
= (
JC
+
CA
)
where:
JC
= junction-to-case thermal resistance
CA
= case-to-ambient thermal resistance
JC
is a relatively constant 20
C/W for a power SOP-8.
CA
is dependent on layout and is primarily governed by the
connection of pins 5 though 8 to the ground plane. The
purpose of the ground plane is to function as a heat sink.
JA
is ideally 63
C/W but will vary depending on the size of the
ground plane to which the power SOP-8 is attached.
Determining Ground-Plane Heat-Sink Area
There are two methods of determining the minimum ground
plane area required by the MIC4680.
Quick Method
Make sure that MIC4680 pins 5 though 8 are connected to a
ground plane with a minimum area of 6cm
2
. This ground
plane should be as close to the MIC4680 as possible. The
area maybe disributed in any shape around the package or
on any pcb layer
as long as there is good thermal contact to
pins 5 though 8. This ground plane area is more than
sufficient for most designs.

C
This value is less than the allowable maximum operating
junction temperature of 125
C as listed in "Operating Rat-
ings." Typical thermal shutdown is 160
C and is listed in
"Electrical Characteristics."
Increasing the Maximum Output Current
The maximum output current at high input voltages can be
increased for a given board layout. The additional three
components shown in Figure 4 will reduce the overall loss in
the MIC4680 by about 20% at high V
IN
and high I
OUT
.
Even higher output current can be achieved by using the
MIC4680 to switch an external FET. See Figure 9 for a 5A
supply with current limiting.
Layout Considerations
Layout is very important when designing any switching regu-
lator. Rapidly changing switching currents through the printed
circuit board traces and stray inductance can generate volt-
age transients which can cause problems.
To minimize stray inductance and ground loops, keep trace
lengths, indicated by the heavy lines in Figure 5, as short as
possible. For example, keep D1 close to pin 3 and pins 5
through 8, keep L1 away from sensitive node FB, and keep
C
IN
close to pin 2 and pins 5 though 8. See "Applications
Information: Thermal Considerations" for ground plane lay-
out.
The feedback pin should be kept as far way from the switching
elements (usually L1 and D1) as possible.
A circuit with sample layouts are provided. See Figure 6a
though 6e.
