DETAILED INFORMATION  
Functional Description  
CV/CC Loop Regulation  
As seen in Functional Block Diagram, the A7431A is a peak current mode pulse width modulation (PWM)  
converter with CC and CV control. The converter operates as follows:  
A switching cycle starts when the rising edge of the Oscillator clock output causes the High-Side Power  
Switch to turn on and the Low-Side Power Switch to turn off. With the SW side of the inductor now connected  
to VIN, the inductor current ramps up to store energy in the magnetic field. The inductor current level is  
measured by the Current Sense Amplifier and added to the Oscillator ramp signal. If the resulting summation  
is higher than the COMP voltage, the output of the PWM Comparator goes high. When this happens or when  
Oscillator clock output goes low, the High-Side Power Switch turns off.  
At this point, the SW side of the inductor swings to a diode voltage below ground, causing the inductor current  
to decrease and magnetic energy to be transferred to output. This state continues until the cycle starts again.  
The High-Side Power Switch is driven by logic using BS as the positive rail. This pin is charged to VSW + 5V  
when the Low-Side Power Switch turns on. The COMP voltage is the integration of the error between FB input  
and the internal 0.808V reference. If FB is lower than the reference voltage, COMP tends to go higher to  
increase current to the output. Output current will increase until it reaches the CC limit set by the ISET resistor.  
At this point, the device will transition from regulating output voltage to regulating output current, and the  
output voltage will drop with increasing load.  
The Oscillator normally switches at 230kHz. However, if FB voltage is less than 0.6V, then the switching  
frequency decreases to 50kHz gradually.  
Enable Pin  
The A7431A has an enable input EN for turning the IC on or off. The EN pin contains a precision 1.6V  
comparator with 125mV hysteresis and a 10μA pull-up current source. The comparator can be used with a  
resistor divider from VIN to program a startup voltage higher than the normal UVLO value. It can be used with  
a resistor divider from VOUT to disable charging of a deeply discharged battery, or it can be used with a resistor  
divider containing a thermistor to provide a temperature-dependent shutoff protection for over temperature  
battery. The thermistor should be thermally coupled to the battery pack for this usage.  
If left floating, the EN pin will be pulled up to roughly 5V by the internal 10μA current source. It can be driven  
from standard logic signals greater than 1.6V, or driven with open-drain logic to provide digital on/off control.  
Thermal Shutdown  
The A7431A disables switching when its junction temperature exceeds 160°C and resumes when the  
temperature has dropped by 40°C.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
Output Voltage Setting  
Figure 1: Output Voltage Setting  
Figure 1 shows the connections for setting the output voltage. Select the proper ratio of the two feedback  
resistors RFB1 and RFB2 based on the output voltage. Adding a capacitor in parallel with RFB1 helps the system  
stability. Typically, use RFB2 ≈10kΩ and determine RFB1 from the following equation:  
VOUT  
0.808V  
RFB1 = RFB2  
1  
CC Current Setting  
A7431A constant current value is set by a resistor connected between the ISET pin and GND. The CC output  
current is approximating linearly proportional to the current flowing out of the ISET pin. The voltage at ISET is  
roughly 1V and the current gain from ISET to output is roughly 27500 (27.5mA/1μA). To determine the proper  
resistor for a desired current, please refer to Figure 2 below.

Inductor Selection  
The inductor maintains a continuous current to the output load. This inductor current has a ripple that is  
dependent on the inductance value:  
Higher inductance reduces the peak-to-peak ripple current. The trade off for high inductance value is the  
increase in inductor core size and series resistance, and the reduction in current handling capability. In  
general, select an inductance value L based on ripple current requirement:  
V
OUT x (VIN VOUT)  
L =  
V
IN  
f
SW  
I
LOADMAX RIPPLE  
K
where VIN is the input voltage, VOUT is the output voltage, fSW is the switching frequency, ILOADMAX is the  
maximum load current, and KRIPPLE is the ripple factor. Typically, choose KRIPPLE = 30% to correspond to the  
peak-to-peak ripple current being 30% of the maximum load current.  
With a selected inductor value the peak-to-peak inductor current is estimated as:  
V
OUT x (VIN VOUT)  
L x VIN x fSW  
ILPK-PK  
The peak inductor current is estimated as:  
=
1
ILPK = ILOADMAX  
+
ILPK-PK  
2
The selected inductor should not saturate at ILPK. The maximum output current is calculated as:  
1
IOUTMAX = ILIM  
-
ILPK-PK

ILIM is the internal current limit, which is typically 4.5A, as shown in Electrical Characteristics Table.  
External High Voltage Bias Diode

It is recommended that an external High Voltage Bias diode be added when the system has a 5V fixed input  
or the power supply generates a 5V output. This helps improve the efficiency of the regulator. The High  
Voltage Bias diode can be a low cost one such as IN4148 or BAT54.  
Figure 4: External High Voltage Bias Diode  
This diode is also recommended for high duty cycle operation and high output voltage applications.  
Input Capacitor  
The input capacitor needs to be carefully selected to maintain sufficiently low ripple at the supply input of the  
converter. A low ESR capacitor is highly recommended. Since large current flows in and out of this capacitor  
during switching, its ESR also affects efficiency.  
The input capacitance needs to be higher than 10μF. The best choice is the ceramic type, however, low ESR  
tantalum or electrolytic types may also be used provided that the RMS ripple current rating is higher than 50%  
of the output current. The input capacitor should be placed close to the IN and GND pins of the IC, with the  
shortest traces possible. In the case of tantalum or electrolytic types, they can be further away if a small  
parallel 10μF ceramic capacitor is placed right next to the IC.  
Output Capacitor  
The output capacitor also needs to have low ESR to keep low output voltage ripple. The output ripple voltage is:  
VIN  
VRIPPLE = IOUTMAXKRIPPLERESR  
+
28 x fS2WLCOUT  
Where IOUTMAX is the maximum output current, KRIPPLE is the ripple factor, RESR is the ESR of the output  
capacitor, fSW is the switching frequency, L is the inductor value, and COUT is the output capacitance. In the  
case of ceramic output capacitors, RESR is very small and does not contribute to the ripple. Therefore, a lower  
capacitance value can be used for ceramic type. In the case of tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, the ripple is  
dominated by RESR multiplied by the ripple current. In that case, the output capacitor is chosen to have  
sufficiently low ESR.  
For ceramic output capacitor, typically choose a capacitance of about 22μF. For tantalum or electrolytic  
capacitors, choose a capacitor with less than 50mΩ ESR.  
Rectifier Diode  
Use a Schottky diode as the rectifier to conduct current when the High-Side Power Switch is off. The Schottky

diode must have current rating higher than the maximum output current and a reverse voltage rating higher  
than the maximum input voltage.  
STABILITY COMPENSATION

CCOMP2 is needed only for high ESR output capacitor The feedback loop of the IC is stabilized by the

STEP 3. If the output capacitor’s ESR is high enough to cause a zero at lower than 4 times the cross over

Output Cable Resistance Compensation  
To compensate for resistive voltage drop across the charger's output cable, the A7431A integrates a simple,  
user-programmable cable voltage drop compensation using the impedance at the FB pin. Use the curve in  
Figure 6 to choose the proper feedback resistance values for cable compensation. RFB1 is the high side  
resistor of voltage divider.  
In the case of high RFB1 used, the frequency compensation needs to be adjusted correspondingly. As show in  
Figure 7, adding a capacitor in paralleled with RFB1 or increasing the compensation capacitance at COMP pin  
helps the system stability.

PC Board Layout Guidance  
Figure8 showed the example of components placement and PCB layout. When laying out the printed circuit  
board, the following checklist should be used to ensure proper operation of the IC.  
1) Arrange the power components to reduce the AC loop sizeconsisting of input ceramic capacitor C1, VIN  
pin, SW pin and the schottky diode D1.  
2) Place input decoupling ceramic capacitor C1 as close to VIN pin as possible. C1 is connected power GND  
with vias or short and wide path.  
3) Return FB, COMP and ISET to signal GND pin, and connect the signal GND to power GND at a single  
point for best noise immunity. Connect exposed pad to power ground copper area with copper and vias.  
4) Use copper plane for power GND for best heat dissipation and noise immunity.  
5) Place feedback resistor close to FB pin.  
6) Use short trace connecting BS-C5-SW loop.
