APW8724  
Common single PWM Controller with Multiform supply Voltage  
Features  
General Description  
·
Adjustable Output Voltage from +0.6V to +5.0V  
The APW8724 is a single-phase, constant on-time, syn-  
chronous PWM controller, which drives N-channel  
MOSFETs. The APW8724 steps down high voltage to  
generate low-voltage chipset, RAM supplies in notebook  
computers or mother board applications.  
- 0.6V Reference Voltage  
- +0.6% Accuracy  
·
·
Operates from An Input Battery Voltage Range of  
+3V to +25V  
The APW8724 provides excellent transient response and  
accurate DC voltage output in either PFM or PWM Mode.  
In Pulse Frequency Mode (PFM), the APW8724 provides  
very high efficiency over light to heavy loads with loading-  
modulated switching frequencies. In PWM Mode, the con-  
verter works nearly at constant frequency for low-noise  
requirements. The unique ultrasonic mode maintains the  
switching frequency above 37kHz, which eliminates noise  
in audio application. APW8724 is built in remote sense  
function for applications that require remote sense.  
The APW8724 is equipped with accurate positive current  
limit, output under-voltage, and output over-voltage  
protections, perfect for multiform applications. The Power-  
On-Reset function monitors the voltage on VCC to pre-  
vent wrong operation during power-on. The APW8724 has  
an internal 4ms digital soft start that ramps up the output  
voltage with programmable slew rate to reduce the start-  
up current. The enable function can let user easy to apply  
APW8724.

Function Description  
Constant-On-Time PWM Controller with Input Feed-For-  
ward  
Where FSW is the nominal switching frequency of the con-  
verter in PWM mode.  
The constant-on-time control architecture is a pseudo-  
fixed frequency with input voltage feed-forward. This ar-  
chitecture relies on the output filter capacitor’s effective  
series resistance (ESR) to act as a current-sense resis-  
tor so the output ripple voltage provides the PWM ramp  
signal. In PFM operation, the high-side switch on-time is  
controlled by the on-time generator is determined solely  
by a one-shot whose pulse width is inversely propor-  
tional to the input voltage and directly proportional to the  
output voltage. In PWM operation, the high-side switch

In this case, APW8724 operates in ultrasonic mode with  
PFM when the load is zero. The ultrasonic mode is illus-  
trated as below description.  
Ultrasonic Mode  
The ultrasonic mode activates an unique PFM mode with  
a minimum switching frequency of 25kHz. The minimum  
frequency 25kHz of ultrasonic mode eliminates audio-  
frequency interference in light load condition. It will transit  
to unique PFM mode when output loading makes the  
frequency bigger than ultrasonic frequency.  
The switching frequency control circuit senses the switch-  
ing frequency of the high-side switch and keeps regulat-  
ing it at a constant frequency in PWM mode. The design  
improves the frequency variation and is more outstand-  
ing than a conventional constant-on-time controller, which  
has large switching frequency variation over input voltage,  
output current, and temperature. Both in PFM and PWM,  
the on-time generator, which senses input voltage on  
PHASE pin, provides very fast on-time response to input  
line transients.  
In ultrasonic mode, the controller automatically transits  
to fixed-frequency PWM operation when the load reaches  
the same critical conduction point (ILOAD(PFM to PWM)).  
When the controller detects that no switching has oc-  
curred within about 40ms (Typical), an ultrasonic pulse  
will be occurred. The ultrasonic controller turns on the  
low-side MOSFET firstly to reduce the output voltage. Af-  
ter feedback voltage drops below the internal reference  
voltage, the controller turns off the low-side MOSFET and  
triggers a constant-on-time. When the constant-on-time  
has expired, the controller turns on the low-side MOSFET  
again until the inductor current is below the zero-cross-  
ing threshold. The behavior is the same as PFM mode.  
Another one-shot sets a minimum off-time (typical:  
400ns). The on-time one-shot is triggered if the error com-  
parator is high, the low-side switch current is below the  
current-limit threshold, and the minimum off-time one-  
shot has timed out.  
Pulse-Frequency Modulation (PFM)  
In PFM mode, an automatic switchover to pulse-frequency  
modulation (PFM) takes place at light loads. This  
switchover is affected by a comparator that truncates the  
low-side switch on-time at the inductor current zero  
crossing. This mechanism causes the threshold between  
PFM and PWM operation to coincide with the boundary  
between continuous and discontinuous inductor-current  
operation (also known as the critical conduction point).  
The on-time of PFM is given by:  
Power-On-Reset (POR)  
A Power-On-Reset (POR) function is designed to prevent  
wrong logic controls when the VCC voltage is low. The  
POR function continually monitors the bias supply volt-  
age on the VCC pin if at least one of the enable pins is set  
high. When the rising VCC voltage reaches the rising  
POR voltage threshold (4.35V, typical), the POR signal  
goes high and the chip initiates soft-start operations.  
When this voltage drops lower than 4.25V (typical), the  
POR disables the chip.

APW8724  
Function Description (Cont.)  
Current-Limit  
The PCB layout guidelines should ensure that noise and  
DC errors do not corrupt the current-sense signals at  
PHASE. Place the hottest power MOSEFTs as close to  
the IC as possible for best thermal coupling. When com-  
bined with the under-voltage protection circuit, this cur-  
rent-limit method is effective in almost every circumstance.  
The current-limit circuit employs a “valley” current-sens-  
ing algorithm (See Figure 1). The APW8724 uses the  
low-side MOSFET RDS(ON) of the synchronous rectifier as a  
current-sensing element. If the magnitude of the current-  
sense signal at PHASE pin is above the current-limit  
threshold, the PWM is not allowed to initiate a new cycle.  
The actual peak current is greater than the current-limit  
threshold by an amount equal to the inductor ripple current.  
Therefore, the exact current-limit characteristic and maxi-  
mum load capability are the functions of the sense  
resistance, inductor value, and input voltage.  
Under-Voltage Protection  
In the operational process, if a short-circuit occurs, the  
output voltage will drop quickly. When load current is big-  
ger than current-limit threshold value, the output voltage  
will fall out of the required regulation range. The under-  
voltage protection circuit continually monitors the FB volt-  
age after soft-start is completed. If a load step is strong  
enough to pull the output voltage lower than the under-  
voltage threshold, the under-voltage threshold is 70% of  
the nominal output voltage, the internal UVP delay counter  
starts to count. After 30ms debounce time, the device turns  
off both high-side and low-side MOSEFET with latched  
and starts a soft-stop process to shut down the output  
gradually. Toggling enable pin to low or recycling VCC,  
will clear the latch and bring the chip back to operation.

Over-Voltage Protection (OVP) of the PWM Converter  
The over-voltage protection monitors the FB voltage to  
prevent the output from over-voltage condition. When the  
output voltage rises above 125% of the nominal output  
voltage, the APW8724 turns off the high-side MOSFET  
and turns on the low-side MOSFET until the output volt-  
age falls below the falling below 105%, the OVP com-  
parator is disengaged and both high-side and low-side  
drivers turn off.  
A resistor (ROCSET), connected from the LGATE/OCSET to  
GND, programs the current-limit threshold. Before the IC  
initiates a soft-start process, an internal current source,  
IOCSET (25mA typical), flowing through the ROCSET develops  
a voltage (VOCSET) across the ROCSET. The device holds  
VOCSET and stops the current source, IOCSET, during normal  
operation. The relationship between the sampled volt-  
age VOCSET and the current-limit threshold ILIMIT is given by:  
This OVP scheme only clamps the voltage overshoot and  
does not invert the output voltage when otherwise acti-  
vated with a continuously high output from low-side  
MOSFET driver. It’s a common problem for OVP schemes  
with a latch. Once an over-voltage fault condition is set, it  
can be reset by releasing COMP or toggling VCC power-  
on-reset signal.  
2´ IOCSET ´ ROCSET  
ILIMIT =  
RDS(ON)(low - side)  
ILIMIT can be expressed as IOUT minus half of peak-to-peak  
inductor current.  
The APW8724 has an internal current-limit voltage  
(VOCSET_MAX), and the value is 0.4V typically. When the ROCSET  
x IOCSET exceeds 0.4V or the ROCSET is floating or not  
connected, the over current threshold will be the internal  
default value 0.4V.

Function Description (Cont.)  
ENPin Control  
When VEN is above the EN high threshold (0.83V,  
minimum). th converter is enabled in automatic PFM/  
PWM operation mode. When VEN is below the EN low  
threshold (0.4V, maximum), the chip is in the shutdown  
and only low leakage current is taken from VCC.  
Adaptive Shoot-Through Protection of the PWM Con-  
verter  
The gate drivers incorporate an adaptive shoot-through  
protection to prevent high-side and low-side MOSFETs  
from conducting simultaneously and shorting the input  
supply. This is accomplished by ensuring the falling gate  
has turned off one MOSFET before the other is allowed to  
rise.  
During turn-off the low-side MOSFET, the LGATE voltage  
is monitored until it is below 1.5V threshold, at which  
time the UGATE is released to rise after a constant delay.  
During turn-off of the high-side MOSFET, the UGATE-to-  
PHASE voltage is also monitored until it is below 1.5V  
threshold, at which time the LGATE is released to rise  
after a constant delay.  
Remote Sense  
APW8724 has a FBRTN pin for applications that require  
remote sense. In some applications where high current,  
low voltage and accurate output voltage regulation are  
needed, FBRTN can sense the negative terminal of re-  
mote load capacitor directly, and improve output voltage  
drop which is due to the board interconnection loss.  
Power OK Indicator  
The APW8724 features an open-drain POK output pin to  
indicate one of the IC's working statuses including soft-  
start, under-voltage fault, over-current fault.  
In normal operation, when the output voltage rises 90%  
of its target value, the POK goes high. When the output  
voltage outruns 50% or 125% of the target voltage, POK  
signal will be pulled low immediately.

Output Voltage Selection  
saturation. In some types of inductors, especially core  
that is made of ferrite, the ripple current will increase  
abruptly when it saturates. This results in a larger output  
ripple voltage. Besides, the inductor needs to have low  
DCR to reduce the loss of efficiency.  
The output voltage can be programmed with a resistive  
divider. Use 1% or better resistors for the resistive divider  
is recommended. The FB pin is the inverter input of the  
error amplifier, and the reference voltage is 0.6V. The  
output voltage is determined by:

VOUT = 0.6 ´ 1+  
Output voltage ripple and the transient voltage devia-  
tion are factors which have to be taken into consider-  
ation when selecting an output capacitor. Higher capaci-  
tor value and lower ESR reduce the output ripple and  
the load transient drop. Therefore, selecting high per-  
formance low ESR capacitors is recommended for  
switching regulator applications. In addition to high  
frequency noise related to MOSFET turn-on and turn-  
off, the output voltage ripple includes the capacitance  
voltage drop DVCOUT and ESR voltage drop DVESR caused  
by the AC peak-to-peak inductor’s current. These two  
voltages can be represented by:  
Where R1 is the resistor connected from VOUT to FB and  
R2 is the resistor connected from FB to the GND.  
Output Inductor Selection  
The duty cycle (D) of a buck converter is the function of the  
input voltage and output voltage. Once an output voltage  
is fixed, it can be written as:  
VOUT  
D =  
V
IN  
The inductor value (L) determines the inductor ripple  
current, IRIPPLE, and affects the load transient reponse.  
Higher inductor value reduces the inductor’s ripple cur-  
rent and induces lower output ripple voltage. The ripple  
current and ripple voltage can be approximated by:  
VIN - VOUT VOUT  
IRIPPLE  
DVCOUT =  
8COUTFSW  
DVESR = IRIPPLE ´ RESR  
These two components constitute a large portion of the  
total output voltage ripple. In some applications, multiple  
capacitors have to be paralleled to achieve the desired  
ESR value. If the output of the converter has to support  
another load with high pulsating current, more capaci-  
tors are needed in order to reduce the equivalent ESR  
and suppress the voltage ripple to a tolerable level. A  
small decoupling capacitor (1mF) in parallel for bypass-  
ing the noise is also recommended, and the voltage rat-  
ing of the output capacitors are also must be considered.  
To support a load transient that is faster than the switch-  
ing frequency, more capacitors are needed for reducing  
the voltage excursion during load step change. Another  
aspect of the capacitor selection is that the total AC cur-  
rent going through the capacitors has to be less than the  
rated RMS current specified on the capacitors in order to  
prevent the capacitor from over-heating.  
IRIPPLE =

FSW ´ L

Where FSW is the switching frequency of the regulator.  
Although the inductor value and frequency are increased  
and the ripple current and voltage are reduced, a tradeoff  
exists between the inductor’s ripple current and the regu-  
lator load transient response time.  
A smaller inductor will give the regulator a faster load  
transient response at the expense of higher ripple current.  
Increasing the switching frequency (FSW) also reduces  
the ripple current and voltage, but it will increase the  
switching loss of the MOSFETs and the power dissipa-  
tion of the converter. The maximum ripple current occurs  
at the maximum input voltage. A good starting point is to  
choose the ripple current to be approximately 30% of the  
maximum output current. Once the inductance value has  
been chosen, selecting an inductor which is capable of  
carrying the required peak current without going into  
Input Capacitor Selection  
The input capacitor is chosen based on the voltage rating  
and the RMS current rating. For reliable operation, select-  
ing the capacitor voltage rating to be at least 1.3 times

RMS current rating requirement is approximately IOUT/2,  
where IOUT is the load current. During power-up, the input  
capacitors have to handle great amount of surge current.  
For low-duty notebook appliactions, ceramic capacitor is  
recommended. The capacitors must be connected be-

low-side MOSFET with very low-impeadance PCB layout.

Note that both MOSFETs have conduction losses while  
the high-side MOSFET includes an additional transition loss.  
The switching interval, tSW, is the function of the reverse  
transfer capacitance CRSS. The (1+TC) term is a factor in  
the temperature dependency of the RDS(ON) and can be  
extracted from the “RDS(ON) vs. Temperature” curve of the  
power MOSFET.  
MOSFETSelection  
The application for a notebook battery with a maximum  
voltage of 24V, at least a minimum 30V MOSFETs should  
be used. The design has to trade off the gate charge with  
the RDS(ON) of the MOSFET:  
For the low-side MOSFET, before it is turned on, the body  
diode has been conducting. The low-side MOSFET driver  
will not charge the miller capacitor of this MOSFET.  
In the turning off process of the low-side MOSFET, the  
load current will shift to the body diode first. The high dv/  
dt of the phase node voltage will charge the miller capaci-  
tor through the low-side MOSFET driver sinking current  
path. This results in much less switching loss of the low-  
side MOSFETs. The duty cycle is often very small in high  
battery voltage applications, and the low-side MOSFET  
will conduct most of the switching cycle; therefore, when  
using smaller RDS(ON) of the low-side MOSFET, the con-  
verter can reduce power loss. The gate charge for this  
MOSFET is usually the secondary consideration. The  
high-side MOSFET does not have this zero voltage switch-  
ing condition; in addition, it conducts for less time com-  
pared to the low-side MOSFET, so the switching loss  
tends to be dominant. Priority should be given to the  
MOSFETs with less gate charge, so that both the gate  
driver loss and switching loss will be minimized.  
Layout Consideration  
In any high switching frequency converter, a correct layout  
is important to ensure proper operation of the regulator.  
With power devices switching at higher frequency, the  
resulting current transient will cause voltage spike across  
the interconnecting impedance and parasitic circuit  
elements. As an example, consider the turn-off transition  
of the PWM MOSFET. Before turn-off condition, the  
MOSFET is carrying the full load current. During turn-off,  
current stops flowing in the MOSFET and is freewheeling  
by the low side MOSFET and parasitic diode. Any parasitic  
inductance of the circuit generates a large voltage spike  
during the switching interval. In general, using short and  
wide printed circuit traces should minimize interconnect-  
ing impedances and the magnitude of voltage spike.  
Besides, signal and power grounds are to be kept sepa-  
rating and finally combined using ground plane construc-  
tion or single point grounding. The best tie-point between  
the signal ground and the power ground is at the nega-  
tive side of the output capacitor on each channel, where  
there is less noise. Noisy traces beneath the IC are not  
recommended. Below is a checklist for your layout:  
· Keep the switching nodes (UGATE, LGATE, BOOT,  
and PHASE) away from sensitive small signal nodes  
since these nodes are fast moving signals.  
The selection of the N-channel power MOSFETs are  
determined by the RDS(ON), reversing transfer capaci-  
tance (CRSS) and maximum output current requirement.  
The losses in the MOSFETs have two components:  
conduction loss and transition loss. For the high-side  
and low-side MOSFETs, the losses are approximately  
given by the following equations:  
Therefore, keep traces to these nodes as short as

· The signals going through theses traces have both  
high dv/dt and high di/dt with high peak charging and  
discharging current. The traces from the gate drivers

· The PGND is the current sensing circuit reference  
ground and also the power ground of the LGATE low-  
side MOSFET. On the other hand, the PGND trace  
should be a separate trace and independently go to  
the source of the low-side MOSFET. Besides, the cur-  
rent sense resistor should be close to OCSET pin to  
avoid parasitic capacitor effect and noise coupling.  
· Decoupling capacitors, the resistor-divider, and boot  
capacitor should be close to their pins. (For example,  
place the decoupling ceramic capacitor close to the  
drain of the high-side MOSFET as close as possible.)  
· The input bulk capacitors should be close to the drain  
of the high-side MOSFET, and the output bulk capaci-  
tors should be close to the loads. The input capaci-  
tor’s ground should be close to the grounds of the  
output capacitors and low-side MOSFET.  
· Locate the resistor-divider close to the FB pin to mini-  
mize the high impedance trace. In addition, FB pin  
traces can’t be close to the switching signal traces  
(UGATE, LGATE, BOOT, and PHASE).
