LM25011  
42V, 2A Constant On-Time Switching Regulator with  
Adjustable Current Limit  
General Description  
Features  
The LM25011 Constant On-time Step-Down Switching Reg-  
ulator features all the functions needed to implement a low  
cost, efficient, buck bias regulator capable of supplying up to  
2A of load current. This high voltage regulator contains an N-  
Channel Buck switch, a startup regulator, current limit detec-  
tion, and internal ripple control. The constant on-time  
regulation principle requires no loop compensation, results in  
fast load transient response, and simplifies circuit implemen-  
tation. The operating frequency remains constant with line  
and load. The adjustable valley current limit detection results  
in a smooth transition from constant voltage to constant cur-  
rent mode when current limit is reached, without the use of  
current limit foldback. The PGD output indicates the output  
voltage has increased to within 5% of the expected regulation  
value. Additional features include: Low output ripple, VIN un-  
der-voltage lock-out, adjustable soft-start timing, thermal  
shutdown, gate drive pre-charge, gate drive under-voltage  
lock-out, and maximum duty cycle limit.

Functional Description  
The LM25011 Constant On-time Step-down Switching Reg-  
ulator features all the functions needed to implement a low  
cost, efficient buck bias power converter capable of supplying  
up to 2.0A to the load. This high voltage regulator contains an  
N-Channel buck switch, is easy to implement, and is available  
in a 10-pin MSOP power enhanced package. The regulator’s  
operation is based on a constant on-time control principle with  
the on-time inversely proportional to the input voltage. This  
feature results in the operating frequency remaining relatively  
constant with load and input voltage variations. The constant  
on-time feedback control principle requires no loop compen-  
sation resulting in very fast load transient response. The  
adjustable valley current limit detection results in a smooth  
transition from constant voltage to constant current when cur-  
rent limit is reached. To aid in controlling excessive switch  
current due to a possible saturating inductor the on-time is  
reduced by 40% when current limit is detected. The Power  
Good output (PGD pin) indicates when the output voltage is  
within 5% of the expected regulation voltage.  
Control Circuit Overview  
The LM25011 buck regulator employs a control principle  
based on a comparator and a one-shot on-timer, with the out-  
put voltage feedback (FB) compared to an internal reference  
(2.51V). If the FB voltage is below the reference the internal  
buck switch is switched on for the one-shot timer period,  
which is a function of the input voltage and the programming  
resistor (RT). Following the on-time the switch remains off until  
the FB voltage falls below the reference, but never less than  
the minimum off-time forced by the off-time one-shot timer.  
When the FB pin voltage falls below the reference and the off-  
time one-shot period expires, the buck switch is then turned  
on for another on-time one-shot period.  
When in regulation, the LM25011 operates in continuous con-  
duction mode at heavy load currents and discontinuous con-  
duction mode at light load currents. In continuous conduction  
mode the inductor’s current is always greater than zero, and  
the operating frequency remains relatively constant with load  
and line variations. The minimum load current for continuous  
conduction mode is one-half the inductor’s ripple current am-  
The LM25011 can be implemented to efficiently step-down  
higher voltages in non-isolated applications. Additional fea-  
tures include: Low output ripple, VIN under-voltage lock-out,  
adjustable soft-start timing, thermal shutdown, gate drive pre-

plitude. The approximate operating frequency is calculated as  
follows:  
The on-time must be chosen greater than 90 ns for proper  
operation. Equations 1, 5 and 6 are valid only during normal  
operation - i.e., the circuit is not in current limit. When the  
LM25011 operates in current limit, the on-time is reduced by  
40%. This feature reduces the peak inductor current which  
may be excessively high if the load current and the input volt-  
age are simultaneously high. This feature operates on a  
cycle-by-cycle basis until the load current is reduced and the  
output voltage resumes its normal regulated value. The max-  
imum continuous current into the RT pin must be less than 2  
mA. For high frequency applications, the maximum switching  
frequency is limited at the maximum input voltage by the min-  
imum on-time one-shot period (90 ns). At minimum input  
voltage the maximum switching frequency is limited by the  
minimum off-time one-shot period, which, if reached, pre-  
vents achievement of the proper duty cycle.  
(1)  
The buck switch duty cycle is approximately equal to:  
(2)  
When the load current is less than one half the inductor’s rip-  
ple current amplitude the circuit operates in discontinuous  
conduction mode. The off-time is longer than in continuous  
conduction mode while the inductor current is zero, causing  
the switching frequency to reduce as the load current is re-  
duced. Conversion efficiency is maintained at light loads  
since the switching losses are reduced with the reduction in  
load and frequency. The approximate discontinuous operat-  
ing frequency can be calculated as follows:  
Current Limit  
Current limit detection occurs during the off-time by monitor-  
ing the voltage across the external current sense resistor  
RS. Referring to the Block Diagram, during the off-time the  
recirculating current flows through the inductor, through the  
load, through the sense resistor, and through D1 to the in-  
ductor. If the voltage across the sense resistor exceeds the  
threshold (VILIM) the current limit comparator output switches  
to delay the start of the next on-time period. The next on-time  
starts when the recirculating current decreases such that the  
voltage across RS reduces to the threshold and the voltage at  
FB is below 2.51V. The operating frequency is typically lower  
due to longer-than-normal off-times. When current limit is de-  
tected, the on-time is reduced by 40% if the voltage at the  
FB pin is below its threshold when the voltage across RS re-  
duces to its threshold (VOUT is low due to current limiting).  
(3)  
where RL = the load resistance, and L1 is the circuit’s inductor.  
The output voltage is set by the two feedback resistors  
(RFB1, RFB2 in the Block Diagram). The regulated output volt-  
age is calculated as follows:  
VOUT = 2.51V x (RFB1 + RFB2) / RFB1  
(4)  
Ripple voltage, which is required at the input of the regulation  
comparator for proper output regulation, is generated inter-  
nally by the LM25011’s ERM (Emulated Ripple Mode) control  
block. The ERM circuit generates the required internal ripple  
voltage from the ripple waveform at the CS pin during each  
Figure 2 illustrates the inductor current waveform during nor-  
mal operation and in current limit. During the first “Normal  
Operation” the load current is I01, the average of the inductor  
current waveform. As the load resistance is reduced, the in-  
ductor current increases until the lower peak of the inductor  
ripple current exceeds the threshold. During the “Current Lim-  
ited” portion of Figure 2, each on-time is reduced by 40%,  
resulting in lower ripple amplitude for the inductor’s current.  
During this time the LM25011 is in a constant current mode  
with an average load current equal to the current limit thresh-  
old plus half the ripple amplitude (IOCL), and the output voltage  
is below the normal regulated value. Normal operation re-  
sumes when the load current is reduced (to IO2), allowing  
VOUT and the on-time to return to their normal values. Note  
that in the second period of “Normal Operation”, even though  
the inductor’s peak current exceeds the current limit threshold  
during part of each cycle, the circuit is not in current limit since  
the inductor current falls below the current limit threshold dur-  
ing each off time. The peak current allowed through the buck  
switch is 3.5A, and the maximum allowed average current is  
2.0A.  
off-time. This feature eliminates the need for ripple at VOUT  
,
allowing output ripple to be kept to a minimum. Output ripple  
is therefore a function of the inductor’s ripple current and the  
characteristics of the output capacitor.  
On-Time Timer  
The on-time for the LM25011 is determined by the RT resistor  
and the input voltage (VIN), calculated from:  
(5)  
The inverse relationship with VIN results in a nearly constant  
frequency as VIN is varied. To set a specific continuous con-  
duction mode switching frequency (FS), the RT resistor is  
determined from the following:

FIGURE 2. Normal and Current Limit Operation  
from the internal 5V regulator for the next on-time. The mini-  
mum off-time ensures a sufficient time each cycle to recharge  
the bootstrap capacitor.  
Ripple Requirements  
The LM25011 requires a minimum of 10 mVp-p ripple voltage  
at the CS pin. That ripple voltage is generated by the de-  
creasing recirculating current (the inductor’s ripple current)  
through RS during the off-time. See Figure 3.  
Soft-Start  
The soft-start feature allows the converter to gradually reach  
a steady state operating point, thereby reducing startup  
stresses and current surges. Upon turn-on, when VIN reaches  
its under-voltage lock-out threshold an internal 10 µA current  
source charges the external capacitor at the SS pin to 2.51V  
(t1 in Figure 1). The ramping voltage at SS ramps the non-  
inverting input of the regulation comparator, and the output  
voltage, in a controlled manner. For proper operation, the soft-  
start capacitor should be no smaller than 1000 pF.  
The LM25011 can be employed as a tracking regulator by  
applying the controlling voltage to the SS pin. The regulator’s  
output voltage tracks the applied voltage, gained up by the  
ratio of the feedback resistors. The applied voltage at the SS  
pin must be within the range of 0.5V to 2.6V. The absolute  
maximum rating for the SS pin is 3.0V. If the tracking function  
causes the voltage at the FB pin to go below the thresholds  
for the PGD pin, the PGD pin will switch low (see the Power  
Good Output section). An internal switch grounds the SS pin  
if the input voltage at VIN is below its under-voltage lock-out  
threshold or if the Thermal Shutdown activates. If the tracking  
function (described above) is used, the tracking voltage ap-  
plied to the SS pin must be current limited to a maximum of 1  
mA.  
30094625  
FIGURE 3. CS Pin Waveform  
The ripple voltage is equal to:  
VRIPPLE = ΔI x RS  
where ΔI is the inductor current ripple amplitude, and RS is  
the current sense resistor at the CS pin.  
N-Channel Buck Switch and Driver  
The LM25011 integrates an N-Channel buck switch and as-  
sociated floating high voltage gate driver. The gate driver  
circuit works in conjunction with an external bootstrap capac-  
itor (CBST) and an internal high voltage diode. A 0.1 µF ca-  
pacitor connected between BST and SW provides the supply  
voltage for the driver during the on-time. During each off-time,  
the SW pin is at approximately -1V, and CBST is recharged  
Shutdown Function  
The SS pin can be used to shutdown the LM25011 by ground-  
ing the SS pin as shown in Figure 4. Releasing the pin allows  
normal operation to resume.

RFB2/RFB1 = (VOUT/2.51V) - 1  
(7)  
For this example, RFB2/RFB1 = 0.992. RFB1 and RFB2 should  
be chosen from standard value resistors in the range of 1.0  
kΩ – 10 kwhich satisfy the above ratio. For this example,  
4.99 kis chosen for both resistors, providing a 5.02V output.  
30094626  
RT: This resistor sets the on-time, and (by default) the switch-  
ing frequency. First check that the desired frequency does not  
require an on-time or off-time shorter than the minimum al-  
lowed values (90 ns and 150, respectively). The minimum on-  
time occurs at the maximum input voltage. For this example:  
FIGURE 4. Shutdown Implemetation  
Power Good Output (PGD)  
The Power Good output (PGD) indicates when the voltage at  
the FB pin is close to the internal 2.51V reference voltage.  
The rising threshold at the FB pin for the PGD output to switch  
high is 95% of the internal reference. The falling threshold for  
the PGD output to switch low is approximately 3.3% below the  
rising threshold.  
The minimum off-time occurs at the minimum input voltage.  
For this example:  
The PGD pin is internally connected to the drain of an N-  
channel MOSFET switch. An external pull-up resistor  
(RPGD), connected to an appropriate voltage not exceeding  
7V, is required at PGD to indicate the LM25011’s status to  
other circuitry. When PGD is low, the pin’s voltage is deter-  
mined by the current into the pin. See the graph “PGD Low  
Voltage vs. Sink Current”.  
Both the on-time and off-time are acceptable since they are  
significantly greater than the minimum value for each. The  
RT resistor is calculated from equation 6 using the minimum  
input voltage:  
Upon powering up the LM25011, the PGD pin is high until the  
voltage at VIN reaches 2V, at which time PGD switches low.  
As VIN is increased PGD stays low until the output voltage  
takes the voltage at the FB pin above 95% of the internal ref-  
erence voltage, at which time PGD switches high. As VIN is  
decreased (during shutdown) PGD remains high until either  
the voltage at the FB pin falls below 92% of the internal ref-  
erence, or when VIN falls below its lower UVLO threshold,  
whichever occurs first. PGD then switches low, and remains  
low until VIN falls below 2V, at which time PGD switches high.  
If the LM25011 is used as a tracking regulator (see the Soft-  
start section), the PGD output is high as long as the voltage  
at the FB pin is above the thresholds mentioned above.  
A standard value 118 kresistor is selected. The minimum  
on-time calculates to 152 ns at Vin = 36V, and the maximum  
on-time calculates to 672 ns at Vin = 8V  
L1: The parameters controlled by the inductor are the inductor  
current ripple amplitude (IOR), and the ripple voltage ampli-  
tude across the current sense resistor RS. The minimum load  
current is used to determine the maximum allowable ripple in  
order to maintain continuous conduction mode (the lower  
peak does not reach 0 mA). This is not a requirement of the  
LM25011, but serves as a guideline for selecting L1. For this  
example, the maximum ripple current should be less than:  
Thermal Shutdown  
The LM25011 should be operated so the junction temperature  
does not exceed 125°C. If the junction temperature increases  
above that, an internal Thermal Shutdown circuit activates  
(typically) at 155°C, taking the controller to a low power reset  
state by disabling the buck switch and taking the SS pin to  
ground. This feature helps prevent catastrophic failures from  
accidental device overheating. When the junction tempera-  
ture reduces below 135°C (typical hysteresis = 20°C) normal  
operation resumes.  
IOR(max) = 2 x IOUT(min) = 600 mA p-p  
(8)  
For applications where the minimum load current is zero, a  
good starting point for allowable ripple is 20% of the maximum  
load current. In this case substitute 20% of IOUT(max) for IOUT  
(min) in equation 8. The ripple amplitude calculated in Equation  
8 is then used in the following equation:  
Applications Information  
EXTERNAL COMPONENTS  
The procedure for calculating the external components is il-  
lustrated with a design example. Referring to the Block Dia-  
gram, the circuit is to be configured for the following  
specifications:  
A standard value 10 µH inductor is chosen. Using this inductor  
value, the maximum ripple current amplitude, which occurs at  
maximum VIN, calculates to 472 mAp-p, and the peak current  
is 1736 mA at maximum load current. Ensure the selected  
inductor is rated for this peak current. The minimum ripple  
current, which occurs at minimum VIN, calculates to 200 mAp-  
p.  
VOUT = 5V  
VIN = 8V to 36V  
Minimum load current for continuous conduction mode  
(IOUT(min) = 300 mA  
RS: The minimum current limit threshold is calculated at max-  
imum load current, using the minimum ripple current calcu-  
lated above. The current limit threshold is the lower peak of  
the inductor current waveform when in current limit (see Fig-  
ure 2).  
Maximum load current (IOUT(max) = 1.5 A  
Switching frequency (FS) = 1.0 MHz  
Soft-start time = 5 ms  
RFB2 and RFB1: These resistors set the output voltage, and  
ILIM = 1.5A – (0.2 A/2) = 1.4A  
their ratio is calculated from:  
www.national.com  
12  
Current limit detection occurs when the voltage across the  
sense resistor (RS) reaches the current limit threshold. To al-  
low for tolerances, the sense resistor value is calculated using  
the minimum threshold specification:  
at VIN, since it is assumed the voltage source feeding VIN has  
some amount of source impedance. When the buck switch  
turns on, the current into VIN suddenly increases to the lower  
peak of the inductor’s ripple current, then ramps up to the up-  
per peak, then drops to zero at turn-off. The average current  
during the on-time is the average load current. For a worst  
case calculation, CIN must supply this average load current  
during the maximum on-time, without letting the voltage at the  
VIN pin drop below a minimum operating level of 5.5V. For  
this exercise 0.5V is chosen as the maximum allowed input  
ripple voltage. Using the maximum load current, the minimum  
value for CIN is calculated from:  
RS = 115 mV/1.4A = 82 mΩ  
The next smaller standard value, 80 m, is selected. The next  
step is to ensure that sufficient ripple voltage occurs across  
RS with this value sense resistor. As mentioned in the Ripple  
Requirements section, a minimum of 10mVp-p voltage ripple  
is required across the RS sense resistor during the off-time to  
ensure the regulation circuit operates properly. The ripple  
voltage is the product of the inductor ripple current amplitude  
and the sense resistor value. In this case, the minimum ripple  
voltage calculates to:  
(9)  
VRIPPLE = ΔI x RS = 200 mA x 0.080= 16 mV  
where tON is the maximum on-time, and ΔV is the allowable  
ripple voltage at VIN. The purpose of CBYP is to minimize tran-  
sients and ringing due to long lead inductance leading to the  
VIN pin. A low ESR 0.1 µF ceramic chip capacitor is recom-  
mended, and CBYP must be located close to the VIN and  
SGND pins.  
If the ripple voltage had calculated to less than 10 mVp-p the  
inductor value would have to be reduced to increase the ripple  
current amplitude. This would have required a recalculation  
of ILIM and RS in the above equations. Since the minimum  
requirement is satisfied in this case no change is necessary.  
The nominal current limit threshold calculates to 1.63A. The  
minimum and maximum thresholds calculate to 1.44A and  
1.83A respectively, using the minimum and maximum limits  
for the current limit threshold specification. The load current  
is equal to the threshold current plus one half the ripple cur-  
rent. Under normal load conditions, the maximum power dis-  
sipation in RS occurs at maximum load current, and at  
maximum input voltage where the on-time duty cycle is min-  
imum. In this design example, the minimum on-time duty  
cycle is:  
CBST: The recommended value for CBST is 0.1 µF. A high  
quality ceramic capacitor with low ESR is recommended as  
CBST supplies a surge current to charge the buck switch gate  
at each turn-on. A low ESR also helps ensure a complete  
recharge during each off-time.  
CSS: The capacitor at the SS pin determines the soft-start  
time, i.e. the time for the output voltage to reach its final value  
(t1 in Figure 1). For a soft-start time of 5 ms, the capacitor  
value is determined from the following:  
D1: A Schottky diode is recommended. Ultra-fast recovery  
diodes are not recommended as the high speed transitions at  
the SW pin may affect the regulator’s operation due to the  
diode’s reverse recovery transients. The diode must be rated  
for the maximum input voltage, the maximum load current,  
and the peak current which occurs when the current limit and  
maximum ripple current are reached simultaneously. The  
diode’s average power dissipation is calculated from:  
At maximum load current, the power dissipation in RS is equal  
to:  
P(RS) = (1.5A)2 x 0.080x (1 – 0.139) = 155 mW  
When in current limit the maximum power dissipation in RS  
calculates to  
P(RS) = (1.83A + 0.472A/4)2 x 0.080= 304 mW  
Duty cycle is not included in this power calculation since the  
on-time duty cycle is typically <5% when in current limit.  
PD1 = VF x IOUT x (1 - D)  
where VF is the diode’s forward voltage drop, and D is the on-  
time duty cycle.  
COUT: The output capacitor should typically be no smaller than  
3.3 µF, although that is dependent on the frequency and the  
desired output characteristics. COUT should be a low ESR  
good quality ceramic capacitor. Experimentation is usually  
necessary to determine the minimum value for COUT, as the  
nature of the load may require a larger value. A load which  
creates significant transients requires a larger value for  
COUT than a non-varying load.  
FINAL CIRCUIT  
The final circuit is shown in Figure 5, and its performance is  
shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7. The current limit measured  
approximately 1.62A at Vin = 8V, and 1.69A at Vin = 36V.  
CIN and CBYP: The purpose of CIN is to supply most of the  
switch current during the on-time, and limit the voltage ripple

PC BOARD LAYOUT  
The LM25011 regulation and current limit comparators are  
very fast, and respond to short duration noise pulses. Layout  
considerations are therefore critical for optimum perfor-  
mance. The layout must be as neat and compact as possible,  
and all of the components must be as close as possible to  
their associated pins. The two major current loops conduct  
currents which switch very fast, and therefore those loops  
must be as small as possible to minimize conducted and ra-  
diated EMI. The first loop is formed by CIN, through the VIN  
to SW pins, L1, COUT, and back to CIN. The second current  
loop is formed by RS, D1, L1, COUT and back to RS. The  
ground connection from CSG to the ground end of CIN should  
be as short and direct as possible.  
The power dissipation within the LM25011 can be approxi-  
mated by determining the circuit’s total conversion loss (PIN  
-
POUT), and then subtracting the power losses in the free-  
wheeling diode, the sense resistor, and the inductor. The  
power loss in the diode is approximately:  
30094603  
FIGURE 6. Efficiency (Circuit of Figure 5)  
PD1 = IOUT x VF x (1-D)  
where Iout is the load current, VF is the diode’s forward volt-  
age drop, and D is the on-time duty cycle. The power loss in  
the sense resistor is:  
PRS = (IOUT)2 x RS x (1 – D)  
The power loss in the inductor is approximately:  
PL1 = IOUT2 x RL x 1.1  
where RL is the inductor’s DC resistance, and the 1.1 factor  
is an approximation for the AC losses. If it is expected that the  
internal dissipation of the LM25011 will produce excessive  
junction temperatures during normal operation, good use of  
the PC board’s ground plane can help to dissipate heat. Ad-  
ditionally the use of wide PC board traces, where possible,  
can help conduct heat away from the IC pins. Judicious po-  
sitioning of the PC board within the end product, along with  
the use of any available air flow (forced or natural convection)  
can help reduce the junction temperature.
