IR3823
A RC network has to be connected between the FB
pin and the COMP pin to form a feedback
compensator. The goal of the compensator design
is to achieve a high control bandwidth with a phase
margin of 45° or above. The high control bandwidth
is beneficial for the loop dynamic response, which
helps to reduce the number of output capacitors, the
PCB size and the cost. A phase margin of 45° or
higher is desired to ensure the system stability. For
most applications, a gain margin of -10dB or higher
is preferred to accommodate component variations
and to eliminate jittering/noise. The proprietary PWM
modulator in IR3823 significantly reduces the PWM
jittering, allowing the control bandwidth in the range
of 1/10th to 1/5th of the switching frequency.
THEORY OF OPERATION
DESCRIPTION
The IR3823 SupIRBuck® is a 3A easy-to-use, fully
integrated and highly efficient synchronous Buck
regulator intended for Point-Of-Load (POL)
applications. It includes two IR HEXFETs with low
R
DS(on). The bottom FET has an integrated
monolithic schottky diode in place of a conventional
body diode.
The IR3823 provides precisely regulated output
voltage programmed via two external resistors from
0.6V to 0.86×Vin. It uses voltage mode control
employing a proprietary PWM modulator with input
voltage feedforward. That provides excellent noise
immunity, easy loop compensation design, and good
line transient response.
Two types of compensators are commonly used:
Type II (PI) and Type III (PID), as shown in Figure 5.
The selection of the compensation type is
dependent on the ESR of the output capacitors.
Electrolytic capacitors have relatively higher ESR. If
the ESR pole is located at the frequency lower than
the cross-over frequency, FC, the ESR pole will help
to boost the phase margin. Thus a type II
compensator can be used. For the output capacitors
with lower ESR such as ceramic capacitors, type III
compensation is often desired.
The IR3823 has an internal Low Dropout (LDO)
Regulator, allowing single supply operation without
resorting to an external bias supply voltage. To
further improve the light load efficiency, the internal
LDO can be bypassed by using an external bias
supply. This mode allows the input bus voltage
range extended down to 1.0V.
The IR3823 features programmable switching
frequency from 300kHz to 1.5MHz, three selectable
soft-start time, and smooth synchronization to an
external clock. The other important functions include
thermally compensated over current protection,
output over voltage protection, pre-bias start-up,
enable with input voltage monitoring, PGood output
and thermal shut-down.
VOLTAGE LOOP COMPESNATION DESIGN
(a)
The IR3823 uses PWM voltage mode control. The
output voltage of the POL, sensed by a resistor
divider, is fed into an internal Error Amplifier (E/A).
The output of the E/R is then compared to an
internal ramp voltage to determine the pulse width of
the gate signal for the control FET. The amplitude of
the ramp voltage is proportional to Vin so that the
bandwidth of the voltage loop remains almost
constant for different input voltages. This feature is
called input voltage feedfoward. It allows the
feedback loop design independent of the input
voltage. Please refer to the next section for more
information.

types of output capacitors.
function can also minimize impact on output voltage
from fast Vin change. The maximum Vin slew rate is
within 1V/µs.

compensation, please refer to the application note

The Under-Voltage Lockout (UVLO) circuit monitors
the voltage of VCC/LDO_Output pin and the Enable
pin. It assures that the MOSFET driver outputs
remain off whenever either of these two signals is
below the set thresholds. Normal operation resumes
once both VCC/LDO_Output and En voltages rise
above their thresholds.

The POR (Power On Ready) signal is generated
when all these signals reach the valid logic level
(see system block diagram). When the POR is
asserted, the soft start sequence starts (see soft
start section).
F0 is the cross-over frequency of the closed voltage
loop and FS is the switching frequency.
INPUT VOLTAGE FEEDFORWARD
Input voltage feedforward is an important feature,
because it can keep the converter stable and
preserve its load transient performance when Vin
varies in a large range. In IR3823, feedforward
function is enabled when Vin pin is connected to PVin
pin and Vin>5.5V. In this case, the internal low
dropout (LDO) regulator is used. The PWM ramp
amplitude (Vramp) is proportionally changed with Vin
to maintain the ratio Vin/Vramp almost constant
throughout Vin variation range (as shown in Figure
6). Thus, the control loop bandwidth and phase
margin can be maintained constant. Feed-forward
ENABLE/EXTERNAL PVIN MONITOR
The IR3823 has an Enable function providing
another level of flexibility for start-up. The Enable pin
has
a
precise threshold, which is internally
monitored by Under-Voltage Lockout (UVLO) circuit.
If the voltage at Enable pin is below its UVLO
threshold, both high-side and low-side FETs are off.
When Enable pin is below its UVLO, Over-Voltage
Protection (OVP) is disabled, and PGood stays low.

IR3823
The Enable pin should not be left floating. A pull-
down resistor in the range of several kilo ohms is
recommended to connect between the Enable Pin
and Gnd.
INTERNAL LOW DROPOUT REGULATOR
The IR3823 has an internal Low Dropout Regulator
(LDO), offering a VCC voltage of 5.1V. The internal
LDO is beneficial for single rail (supply) applications,
where no external bias supplies will be needed. For
these applications, Vin pin should be connected to
PVin and VCC/LDO_Out pin is left floating as shown
in Figure 9. 1.0μF and 2.2μF ceramic bypass
capacitors should be placed close to Vin pin and
VCC/LDO_Out pin respectively.
In addition to logical inputs, the Enable pin can be
used to implement precise input voltage UVLO. As
shown in Figure 7, the input of the Enable pin is
derived from the PVin voltage by a set of resistive
divider, R1 and R2. By selecting different divider
ratios, users can program the UVLO threshold
voltage. The bus voltage UVLO is a very desirable
feature. It prevents the IR3823 from regulating at
PVin lower than the desired voltage level. Figure 8
shows the start-up waveform with the input UVLO
voltage set at 10V.
Figure 9: Internally Biased Single-Rail Configuration
When Vin drops below 5.5V, the internal LDO enters
the dropout mode. Figure 10 shows the
VCC/LDO_Out voltage for Vin=PVin=5V with switching
frequency of 600kHz and 1500kHz respectively.
Alternatively, if the input bus voltage, PVin, is in the
range of 4.5V to 7.5V, VCC/LDO_Out pin can be
directly connected to PVin pin to bypass the internal
LDO and therefore to avoid the voltage drop on the
internal LDO. This configuration is illustrated in
Figure 11.
Figure 7: Implementation of Input Under-Voltage
Lockout (UVLO) using Enable Pin
Figure 12 shows the configuration using an external
VCC voltage. With this configuration, the input voltage
range can be extended down to 1.0V. Please note
that the input feedforward function is disabled for
this configuration. The feedback compensation
needs to be adjusted accordingly.
It should be noted as the VCC voltage decreases, the
efficiency and the over current limit will decrease
due to the increase of RDS(ON). Please refer to the
section of the over current protection for more
information.

SOFT-START
The IR3823 has an internal digital soft-start circuit to
control the output voltage rise time, and to limit the
current surge at the start-up. To ensure correct start-
up, the soft-start sequence initiates when the Enable
and Vcc voltages rise above their UVLO thresholds

The output starts in an asynchronous fashion and
keeps the synchronous MOSFET (Sync FET) off
until the first gate signal for control MOSFET (Ctrl
FET) is generated. Figure 14 shows a typical Pre-
Bias condition at start up. The gate signal of the
control FET is determined by the loop compensator.
The sync FET always starts with a narrow pulse
width (12.5% of a switching period) and gradually
increases its duty cycle with a step of 12.5% until it
reaches the steady state value. The number of these
startup pulses for each step is 16 and it’s internally
programmed. Figure 15 shows the series of 16x8

OVER CURRENT PROTECTION
The over current (OC) protection is performed by
sensing current through the RDS(on) of the
Synchronous MOSFET. This method enhances the
converter’s efficiency, reduces cost by eliminating a
current sense resistor and any layout related noise
issues. The current limit is pre-set internally and is
compensated according to the IC temperature. So at
different ambient temperature, the over-current trip
threshold remains almost constant.

Detailed operation of OCP is explained as follows.
Over Current Protection circuit senses the inductor
current flowing through the Synchronous MOSFET
closer to the valley point. OCP circuit samples this
current for 40nsec typically after the rising edge of
the PWM set pulse, which has a width of 12.5% of
the switching period. The PWM pulse starts at the
falling edge of the PWM set pulse. This makes valley
current sense more robust as current is sensed
close to the bottom of the inductor downward slope
where transient and switching noise are lower and
helps to prevent false tripping due to noise and
transient. An OC condition is detected if the load
current exceeds the threshold, the converter enters
Figure 15: Pre-Bias startup pulses
SHUTDOWN
IR3823 can be shut down by pulling the Enable pin
below its 1.0V threshold. Both the high side and the
low side drivers will be pulled low.
OPERATING FREQUENCY
The switching frequency can be programmed
between 300kHz – 1200kHz by connecting an
external resistor from Rt pin to Gnd. Rt can be
calculated as follows.

into hiccup mode. PGood will go low and the internal
soft start signal will be pulled low. The converter
goes into hiccup mode with some hiccup blanking
time as shown in Figure 16. The convertor stays in
this mode until the over load or short circuit is
removed. With different SS_Select configurations,
the hiccup blanking time is different. Please refer to
the electrical table for details. The actual DC output
current limit point will be greater than the valley point
by an amount equal to approximately half of peak to
peak inductor ripple current.

OVER-VOLTAGE PROTECTION (OVP)
Over-voltage protection in IR3823 is achieved by
comparing FB pin voltage to a pre-set threshold.
OVP threshold is set at 1.2×Vref. When FB pin
voltage exceeds the over voltage threshold, an over
voltage trip signal asserts after 2us (typ.) delay.
Then the high side drive signal HDrv is turned off
immediately, PGood flags low. The sync FET
remains on to discharge the output capacitor. When
the VFB voltage drops below the threshold, the sync
FET turns off to prevent the complete depletion of
the output capacitor. After that, HDrv remains off
until a reset is performed by cycling either Vcc or
Enable. Figure 19 shows the timing diagram for over
voltage protection. Please note that OVP
comparator becomes active only when the IR3823 is
enabled.
Figure 16: Timing Diagram for Hiccup OCP
Over current limit is affected by the VCC voltage. For
some single rail operations where Vin is 5V or less,
the OCP limit will de-rated due to the drop of VCC
voltage. Figure 17 and Figure 18 show the over
current limit for two single rail applications with
Vin=PVin=5V and Vin=PVin=VCC=4.5V respectively.

IR3823
When an external clock is applied to Rt/Sync pin
after the converter runs in steady state with its free-
running frequency, a transition from the free-running
frequency to the external clock frequency will
happen. This transition is to gradually make the
actual switching frequency equal to the external
clock frequency, no matter which one is higher. On
the contrary, when the external clock signal is
removed from Rt/Sync pin, the switching frequency
is also changed to free-running gradually. In order to
minimize the impact from these transitions to output
voltage, a diode is recommended to add between
the external clock and Rt/Sync pin, as shown in
Figure 20. Figure 21 shows the timing diagram of
these transitions.
POWER GOOD OUTPUT
IR3823 continually monitors the output voltage via
FB voltage. The FB voltage is an input to the window
comparator with upper and lower threshold of 120%
and 85% of the reference voltage respectively.
PGood signal is high whenever FB voltage is within
the PGood comparator window thresholds. For pre-
biased start-up, PGood is not active until the first
gate signal of the control FET is generated.
The PGood pin is open drain and it needs to be
externally pulled high. High state indicates that
output is in regulation.
In addition, PGood is also gated by other faults
including over current and over temperature. When
either of the faults occurs, PGood pin will be pulled
low.
An internal compensation circuit is used to change
the PWM ramp slope according to the clock
frequency applied on Rt/Sync pin. Thus, the
effective amplitude of the PWM ramp (Vramp), which
is used in compensation loop calculation, has minor
impact from the variation of the external
synchronization signal.
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
Temperature sensing is provided inside IR3823. The
trip threshold is typically set to 145ºC. When trip
threshold is exceeded, thermal shutdown turns off
both MOSFETs and resets the internal soft start.
Automatic restart is initiated when the sensed
temperature drops within the operating range. There
is a 20°C hysteresis in the thermal shutdown
threshold.
EXTERNAL SYNCHRONIZATION
IR3823 incorporates an internal phase lock loop
(PLL) circuit which enables synchronization of the
internal oscillator to an external clock. This function
is important to avoid sub-harmonic oscillations due
to beat frequency for embedded systems when
multiple point-of-load (POL) regulators are used. A
multi-function pin, Rt/Sync, is used to connect the
external clock. If the external clock is present before
the converter turns on, Rt/Sync pin can be
connected to the external clock signal solely and no
other resistor is needed. If the external clock is
applied after the converter turns on, or the converter
switching frequency needs to toggle between the
external clock frequency and the internal free-
running frequency, an external resistor from Rt/Sync
pin to Gnd is required to set the free-running
frequency.

and mid frequency range, while in high frequency
range this ratio increases, thus the lower the
maximum duty ratio at which IR3823 can operate.
Figure 22 shows a plot of the maximum duty ratio vs.
the switching frequency.
MINIMUM ON TIME CONSIDERATIONS
The minimum ON time is the shortest amount of time
for which Ctrl FET may be reliably turned on, and
this depends on the internal timing delays. For
IR3823, the worst case minimum on-time is specified
as 60ns.
Any design or application using IR3823 must ensure
operation with a pulse width that is higher than this
minimum on-time and preferably higher than 60ns.
This is necessary for the circuit to operate without
jitter and pulse-skipping, which can cause high
inductor current ripple and high output voltage ripple.

provides an upper limit on the operating duty ratio at
any given switching frequency. The off-time remains

EXTERNAL PVIN MONITOR (INPUT UVLO)
As explained in the section of Enable/External PVin
monitor, the input voltage, PVin, can be monitored by
connecting the Enable pin to PVin through a set of
resistor divider. When PVin exceeds the desired
voltage level such that the voltage at the Enable pin
exceeds the Enable threshold, 1.2V, the IR3823 is
turned on. The implementation of this function is
shown in Figure 7.

BOOTSTRAP CAPACITOR SELECTION
To drive the Control FET, it is necessary to supply a
gate voltage at least 4V greater than the voltage at
the SW pin, which is connected to the source of the
Control FET. This is achieved by using a bootstrap
configuration, which comprises the internal bootstrap
diode and an external bootstrap capacitor, C1, as
shown in Figure 24. The operation of the circuit is as
follows: When the sync FET is turned on, the
capacitor node connected to SW is pulled low. VCC
starts to charge C1 through the internal bootstrap
didoe. The voltage, Vc, across the bootstrap
capacitor C1 can be calculated as

A good quality ceramic capacitor of 0.1μF with
voltage rating of at least 25V is recommended for
most applications.
Panasonic may also be used as a bulk capacitor and
is recommended if the input power supply is not
located close to the converter.
INDUCTOR SELECTION
The inductor is selected based on output power,
operating frequency and efficiency requirements. A
low inductor value causes large ripple current,
resulting in the smaller size, faster response to a
load transient but poor efficiency and high output
noise. Generally, the selection of the inductor value
can be reduced to the desired maximum ripple
current in the inductor (∆i). The optimum point is
usually found between 20% and 50% ripple of the
output current.
The saturation current of the inductor is desired to
be higher than the over current limit plus the inductor
ripple current. An inductor with soft-saturation
characteristic is recommended.
Figure 24: Bootstrap circuit to generate the supply
voltage for the high-side driver voltage
INPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
For the buck converter, the inductor value for the
desired operating ripple current can be determined
using the following relation:
Good quality input capacitors are necessary to
minimize the input ripple voltage and to supply the
switch current during the on-time. The input
capacitors should be selected based on the RMS
value of the input ripple current and requirement of
the input ripple voltage.

The input voltage ripple is the result of the charging
of the input capacitors and the voltage induced by
ESR and ESL of the input capacitors.
Ceramic capacitors are recommended due to their
high ripple current capabilities. They also feature low
ESR and ESL at higher frequency which enables
better efficiency.
Select ∆iLmax ≈ 36%×Io, then the output inductor is
calculated to be 1.0μH. Select L=1.0μH, XFL4020-
102ME, from Coilcraft which provides a compact,
low profile inductor suitable for this application.
For this application, it is suggested to use two
10μF/25V ceramic capacitors, C3216X5R1E106M,
from TDK. In addition, although not mandatory, a
1x100uF, 25V SMD capacitor EEE-1EA101XP from

(2) load transient response. The load transient
response is also greatly affected by the control
bandwidth. So it is common practice to select the
output capacitors to meet the requirements of the
output ripple voltage first, and then design the
control bandwidth to meet the transient load
response. For some cases, even with the highest
allowable control bandwidth, the resulting load
transient response still cannot meet the requirement.
The number of output capacitors then need to be
increased.

Good quality ceramic capacitors are recommended

ceramic capacitors are usually de-rated with the DC
and AC biased voltage. It is important to use the de-
rated capacitance value for the calculation of output
ripple voltage as well as the voltage loop
compensation design. The de-rated capacitance
value may be obtained from the manufacturer’s
datasheets.
In this case, one 22uF ceramic capacitors,
C2012X5R0J226M, from TDK are used to achieve
±12mV peak-to-peak ripple voltage requirement. The
de-rated capacitance value with 1.2VDC bias and

pins. It is important to place the feedback
components including feedback resistors and
compensation components close to Fb and Comp
pins.
LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS
The layout is very important when designing high
frequency switching converters. Layout will affect
noise pickup and can cause a good design to
perform with worse than expected results.
In a multilayer PCB use one layer as a power
ground plane and have a control circuit ground
(analog ground), to which all signals are referenced.
The goal is to localize the high current path to a
separate loop that does not interfere with the more
sensitive analog control function. These two grounds
must be connected together on the PC board layout
at a single point. It is recommended to place all
the compensation parts over the analog ground
plane in top layer.
Make the connections for the power components in
the top layer with wide, copper filled areas or
polygons. In general, it is desirable to make proper
use of power planes and polygons for power
distribution and heat dissipation.
The inductor, output capacitors and the IR3823
should be as close to each other as possible. This
helps to reduce the EMI radiated by the power
traces due to the high switching currents through
them. Place the input capacitor directly at the PVin
pin of IR3823.
The Power QFN is a thermally enhanced package.
Based on thermal performance it is recommended to
use at least a 4-layers PCB. To effectively remove
heat from the device the exposed pad should be
connected to the ground plane using via holes.
Figure 41-Figure 44 illustrates the implementation of
the layout guidelines outlined above, on the
IRDC3823 4-layer demo board.
The feedback part of the system should be kept
away from the inductor and other noise sources.
The critical bypass components such as capacitors
for Vin and VCC should be close to their respective

Evaluations have shown that the best overall
performance is achieved using the substrate/PCB

should be placed to an accuracy of 0.050mm on
both X and Y axes. Self-centering behavior is highly

IR recommends that the larger Power or Land Area
pads are Solder Mask Defined (SMD.) This allows
the underlying Copper traces to be as large as
possible, which helps in terms of current carrying
capability and device cooling capability.
are Non Solder Mask Defined (NSMD) or Copper
Defined.
When using NSMD pads, the Solder Resist Window
should be larger than the Copper Pad by at least
0.025mm on each edge, (i.e. 0.05mm in X&Y,) in
order to accommodate any layer to layer
misalignment.
When using SMD pads, the underlying copper
traces should be at least 0.05mm larger (on each
edge) than the Solder Mask window, in order to
accommodate any layer to layer misalignment. (i.e.
0.1mm in X & Y.)
Ensure that the solder resist in-between the smaller
signal lead areas are at least 0.15mm wide, due to
the high x/y aspect ratio of the solder mask strip.
However, for the smaller Signal type leads around
the edge of the device, IR recommends that these

STENCIL DESIGN
Stencils for PQFN can be used with thicknesses of
0.100-0.250mm (0.004-0.010"). Stencils thinner than
0.100mm are unsuitable because they deposit
insufficient solder paste to make good solder joints
with the ground pad; high reductions sometimes
create similar problems. Stencils in the range of
0.125mm-0.200mm (0.005-0.008"), with suitable
reductions, give the best results.
Evaluations have shown that the best overall
performance is achieved using the stencil design
shown in following figure. This design is for a stencil
thickness of 0.127mm (0.005"). The reduction
should
be
adjusted
for
stencils
of other thicknesses.
