Low Quiescent Current  
410ꢀkHz Automotive  
Synchronous Buck Controller  
NCV881930  
The NCV881930 is a 410 kHz fixedfrequency low quiescent  
current buck controller with spread spectrum that operates up to 38 V  
(typical). It may be synchronized to a clock or to separate  
NCV881930. Peak current mode control is employed for fast transient  
response and tight regulation over wide input voltage and output load  
ranges. Feedback compensation is internal to the device, permitting  
design simplification. The NCV881930 is capable of converting from  
an automotive input voltage range of 3.5 V (4.5 V during startup) to  
18 V at a constant base switching frequency. Under load dump  
conditions up to 45 V the regulator shuts down. A high voltage bias  
regulator with automatic switchover to an external 5 V bias supply is  
used for improved efficiency. Several protection features such as  
UVLO, current limit, short circuit protection, and thermal shutdown  
are provided. High switching frequency produces low output voltage  
ripple even when using small inductor values and an allceramic  
output filter capacitor, forming a spaceefficient switching solution.

DETAILED OPERATING DESCRIPTION  
General  
10%  
Temperature tolerance  
10.5% at 40 C.  
Preset internal slope and feedback loop compensation  
results in predetermined values for current sense resistors  
and output filtering.  
DC bias voltage  
A capacitor technology mix of ceramic and aluminum  
polymer or solid aluminum electrolytic capacitors results in  
a cost effective solution. Nonsolid aluminum electrolytic  
capacitors are not recommended due to their large cold  
temperature ESR properties. An all ceramic solution filter  
implementation using 22 mF capacitor (like the  
GRJ32ER71A226KE11) was considered for Table 6 and  
Table 7 for a design objective of 3% transient voltage for  
a 50% load transient. Tolerances used in determining the  
number of required capacitors were:  
4.5% for 3.3 V, 18.8% for 5 V.  
100 mV AC RMS voltage  
10.5%  
At higher currents, optimal inductor and current sense  
resistor values may become limited. It may be necessary to  
parallel 3 resistor values to achieve the desired current sense  
resistor value. The manufacturer’s inductor tolerance and  
properties must be considered when determining the current  
sense resistor for desired current limiting under worst case  
component values.

Input Voltage  
The output voltage setting option must be selected prior to  
enabling the IC via the EN pin. The voltage setting option  
will be latched prior to initiation of softstart. The voltage  
option latch will be reset whenever the EN pin is toggled or  
during a UVLO event.  
An undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuit monitors the  
input and can inhibit switching and reset the softstart  
circuit if there is insufficient voltage for proper regulation.  
Depending on the output conditions (voltage option and  
loading), the NCV881930 may lose regulation and run in  
dropout mode before reaching the UVLO threshold. When  
the input voltage is sufficiently low so that the part cannot  
regulate due to maximum duty cycle limitation, the  
highside MOSFET can be kept on continuously for up to  
8 clock cycles (19.5 ms), to help lower the minimum voltage  
at which the controller loses regulation.  
ICVIN  
A 1 mF decoupling capacitor is recommended between  
ICVIN and ground. PCB layout inductance separating this  
decoupling capacitor and the input EMI capacitor may result  
in low amplitude highQ ringing. A 1 W damping resistor  
between the PCB VIN and ICVIN is recommended.  
Switching noise will be greater at the high side drain than  
at the input EMI ceramic filter capacitor. The trace providing  
voltage to ICVIN should originate from the EMI ceramic  
filter capacitor.  
The VOUT pin sinks 0 mA under typical conditions when  
the SYNCI pin is logiclow. The VOUT pin sinks 1 mA  
when any of the following conditions are present:  
SYNCI = logichigh  
SYNCI is driven by an external clock  
An overvoltage monitoring circuit automatically  
terminates switching and disables the output if the input  
exceeds 37 V (minimum). However, the NCV881930 can  
withstand input voltages up to 45 V.  
Output Voltage  
The output may be programmed to VSEL_LO when  
VSEL is ground referenced.  
When VSEL is connected to DBIAS via an optional 10 kΩ  
resistor, the output voltage is programmed to VSEL_HI.

NCV881930  
external 5 V source may be connected to VCCEXT to permit  
VIN < VIN_low threshold  
bypassing of the internal LDO (Table 7). The LDO bypass  
efficiency improvement is reduced at lower currents when  
the IC enters pulseskip mode. An IC power consumption  
reduction of about 100 mW has been measured on a demo  
board configured with NVMFS5C460NL power transistors  
at an input voltage of 13 V.  
VIN > frequency foldback threshold voltage  
VCCEXT  
VIN supplies VDRV and logic power via the IC’s internal  
LDO. VCCEXT pin is ignored if connected to a voltage less  
than 5 V or is left unconnected. For improved efficiency, an

SoftStart  
When the NCV881930MW00R2G/AR2G is configured  
for a 5 V output (VSEL connected to DBIAS) and VCCEXT  
is connected to the power supply’s output, VFB and CSN  
traces must be independent from the VCCEXT power trace.  
VDRV circuitry gate drive current pulses circulate through  
the VCCEXT PCB trace. Voltage disturbance from the trace  
parasitic layout inductance will distort CSN and ICVOUT  
measurements.  
The IC structure has a 2 series anodecathode diode path  
between pins VCCEXT and VIN (Figure 18). If the  
controller VIN power source is disconnected while  
VCCEXT is connected to an independent external 5 V  
supply, the diode path will deliver current to the converter’s  
input. VIN pin may remain biased to VCCEXT minus 2  
diode drops and could supply other devices sharing the same  
rail as the IC. To avoid unpredictable operating behavior, the  
EN pin must be set to a logiclow state to disable PWM  
operation upon disconnection of the IC’s power source and  
independent VCCEXT power source must be disabled if the  
IC VIN rail is shared by other devices.  
The NCV881930 features an externally adjustable  
softstart function, which reduces inrush current and  
overshoot of the output voltage. Figure 19 shows a typical  
softstart sequence.  
Softstart is achieved by charging an external softstart  
capacitor connected to the SSC pin via an internal 10 mA  
current source. Should the FB voltage slew rate be less than  
that of the SSC, the SSC pin will be clamped to V(FB) +  
123 mV. Once the SSC voltage is greater than 0.75 V, the  
clamp is released.  
During softstart, the SYNCI function is disabled and the  
controller will operate in diodeemulation mode. Pulse skip  
is allowed. The logic will enable the SYNCI function once  
SSC voltage exceeds 1.075 V.  
Following activation of the EN pin, there will be eight  
~250 ns GL pulses (102.5 kHz repetition rate) prior to  
initiation of the softstart to charge the bootstrap capacitor.  
During this event, there will be no GH pulses. If VOUT is  
< ~0.2 V at EN activation, the pulses are not required and the  
logic may disable the eight GL pulses.  
Should the power supply output voltage foldback from  
current limiting, it is necessary to prevent the feedback  
opamp from clamping high to avoid output overshoot when  
current limiting ends. If the opamp feedback pin is less than  
750 mV, the SSC pin voltage will be discharged to the  
opamp feedback voltage + 123 mV (Figure 19). Voltage  
returns to nominal regulation via softstart behavior.

NCV881930  
Peak Current Mode Control  
As a result of the IC’s CSPCSN high input impedance,  
noise reduction measures should be used for effective noise  
immunity from the current sense feedback traces.  
The NCV881930 incorporates a current mode control  
scheme, in which the PWM ramp signal is derived from the  
power switch current. This ramp signal is compared to the  
output of the error amplifier to control the ontime of the  
power switch. The oscillator is used as the frequency clock  
to ensure a PWM switching operation. The resulting control  
scheme features several advantages over conventional  
voltage mode control. First, derived directly from the  
inductor, the ramp signal responds immediately to line  
voltage transients. This eliminates the delay caused by the  
output filter and the error amplifier, which is commonly  
found in voltage mode controllers. The second benefit  
comes from inherent pulsebypulse current limiting by  
merely clamping the peak switching current. Finally, since  
current mode commands an output current rather than  
voltage, the filter offers only a single pole to the feedback  
loop. This permits simpler internal compensation.  
A fixed slope compensation signal is generated internally  
and added to the sensed current to avoid increased output  
voltage ripple due to bifurcation of inductor ripple current  
at duty cycles above 50%. The fixed amplitude of the slope  
compensation signal requires the inductor to be less than a  
maximum value, depending on output voltage, in order to  
avoid subharmonic oscillations. Recommended inductor  
values are described in Table 6. Other values may be  
possible.  
Current sense resistors have a small inherent parasitic  
inductance that will result in a small voltage excursion  
equaling L dI /dt distortion superimposed on the  
RSNS L  
triangular current sense waveform. The differential  
noise resulting from such a distortion can be minimized  
with the use of parallel sense resistors. The amplitude  
of such a distortion is difficult to predict (data not  
normally provided in resistor datasheets), validation of  
current limit response during power supply bench  
evaluation is required.  
Trace routing must not be adjacent to a switch node or  
other high noise trace.  
Traces should be coincident with of each other on inner  
layers to minimize coupling from external radiated  
fields. Traces should be shielded by a top or bottom  
ground layer (use both layers when possible).  
On layers having the feedback traces, there should be a  
ground poor next on each side of the traces for  
additional shielding.  
It is recommended that an output filter ceramic  
capacitor be located near RSNS/RSNS1 to help  
mitigate output switching noise at RSF2.  
An optional RCR pfilter on the IC’s CSP/CSN pins  
(Figure 23) is sometimes used to filter differential and  
common mode noise.  
To avoid creating a commonmode noise filter  
imbalance at the IC current sense pins, simple RC  
differential filters are not recommended.  
The pfilter must be adjacent to the IC to minimize  
field induced noise sensitivity on the high impedance  
side (IC side) of the filter.  
If used, a pfilter 3 dB rolloff frequency > 1 MHz is  
recommended to prevent the filter transfer function  
zero from influencing the feedback loop response.  
RSF1 = RSF2 = 49.9 W and CSF1 =100 pF is a  
recommended starting point.  
Current Sensing (CSPCSN):  
V_CS is derived from VIN. It is a supply input for the  
internal current sense amplifier and should never be used to  
power external circuitry. The V_CS ceramic decoupling  
capacitor a minimum of 50 V voltage rating. Ground this pin  
if not used.  
Kelvin connections to current sense resistor (RSNS) are  
required. CSPCSN feedback nodes must not be inline  
with the power path. An example of a good design practice  
is to connect the sense lines at the center of the inside edge  
of the sense resistors (Figure 22).

The RSTB resistor is commonly tied to VOUT. A RSTB  
resistor value setting the current at the reset pin in the range  
of 0.6 mA to 1 mA is not recommended due to the variation  
of the threshold between a set delay time and power good.  
Depending on the output voltage option, typical reset delay  
times for a 3.3 V pullup can be achieved with the following  
resistor values.  
Short Circuit Protection  
When the peak inductor current reaches the current limit  
threshold, dutycycle limiting occurs and output voltage  
will be foldback accordingly.  
A GH pulse skip will occur under severe shortcircuit  
conditions if the inductor current exceeds the peak current  
limit threshold at the beginning of the next GH activation  
cycle. GL pulses will continue to operate during this GH  
pulse skip operation.

Duty Cycle and Maximum Pulse Width Limits  
Maximum GH duty ratio is defined by t , the

minimum permissible GH off time. When this maximum  
duty ratio is reached while VIN < VIN_LOW, one or more  
GH off cycle pulse will be skipped to permit maintaining  
output voltage regulation. Although the internal 410 kHz  
clock frequency remains unchanged, skipping a GH off  
pulse results in a measured reduction of the operating  
frequency. For instance, skipping a single GH off pulse  
results in a 205 kHz measured waveform frequency.  
When VIN < VIN_LOW and VOUT falls below  
regulation, the period on GH pin ontime is 19.5 ms and the  
offtime is 200 ns (Figure 26). If this occurs while operating  
under light load, the VSW pin has 70 ns to decay below  
0.4 V for the internal logic to set the GL pin high. If the VSW  
pin is greater than 0.4 V after 70ns, the GL pin will be forced

When active, SYNCO is in phase with SYNCI  
(Figure 30). Rise/fall edge waveforms have a typical 10 ns  
delay relative to corresponding SYNCI waveform edges.  
SYNCO will be a fixed frequency 410 kHz signal under  
normal voltage when part is in current limit and VOUT  
bootstrap diode is located between VDRV to BST to create  
a bootstrap supply on the BST pin for the highside floating  
gate driver. This ensures that the voltage on BST is about  
4.5 Vhigher than V to drive the highside MOSFET. The  
SW  
boost capacitor supplies the charge used by the gate driver  
to charge up the input capacitance of the highside  
MOSFET, and is typically chosen to be at least a decade  
larger than its gate capacitance. Since the BST capacitor  
recharges when the lowside MOSFET is on, pulling VSW  
down to ground, the NCV881930 has a minimum offtime.  
This also means that the BST capacitor cannot be arbitrarily  
large, since VDRV needs to be able to replenish charge  
during this minimum offtime so the highside gate driver  
doesn’t run out of headroom. VDRV must supply charge to  
both the BST capacitor and the lowside driver, so the  
VDRV capacitor must be sufficiently larger than the BST  
capacitor. A 10:1 VDRV/BST capacitor ratio is effective. A  
1 mF VDRV capacitor along with a 0.1 mF BST capacitor is  
recommended.

when any of the following conditions are present:  
SYNCI = logichigh  
SYNCI is driven by an external clock  
VIN < VIN_low threshold  
VIN > frequency foldback threshold voltage  
Careful selection and layout of external components is  
required to realize the full benefit of the onboard drivers.  
The capacitors between VINand GND and between BST and  
VSW must be placed as close as possible to the IC. The  
current paths for the GH and GL connections must be  
optimized to minimize PCB parasitic resistance and  
inductance.

V_SO is a supply voltage strictly intended for the SYNCO  
output driver and should never be used to power external  
circuitry. The V_SO ceramic decoupling capacitor a  
minimum of 5 V voltage rating. Ground this pin if not used.  
An external pulldown resistor is recommended at the  
SYNCI pin if the function is unused. The SYNCO pulse may  
be used to synchronize other NCV881930 ICs. If a part does  
not have its switching frequency controlled by the SYNCI  
input, the part will operate at the oscillator frequency. A  
rising edge of the SYNCI pulse causes an NCV881930 to  
send a GH pulse. If another rising edge does not arrive at the  
SYNCI pin, the NCV881930 oscillator will take control  
after the master reassertion time delay which may last up to  
3 clock cycles if SYNCI is stopped at logiclow level, up to  
4 cycles if SYNCI is stopped at logichigh level. During the  
master reassertion time, GH will be off and GL will be  
activehigh (i.e. switch node tied to ground). As a result,  
SYNCI operating mode change should be avoided.  
After softstart event, SYNCO becomes active when SSC

DiodeEmulation Mode  
Diodeemulation mode is active when SYNCI is either  
open or grounded. A comparator in the current sense block  
detects the CSPCSN voltage transition from a positive  
voltage (positive inductor current) to 0 V (0 A inductor  
current). When 0 A is detected, the bottom GL signal turns  
off the low side MOSFET to prevent negative inductor  
current.  
PulseSkip Mode  
Pulseskipping is used at near discontinuous conduction  
mode operation as a method to improve low current  
operating efficiency. Pulseskip PWM regulation is used to  
mimic discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) behavior  
(Figure 31). The architecture does not use current sensing  
for pulseskip detection. The current sense amplifier  
response time and its input voltage hysteretic characteristics  
would have resulted in potentially objectionable output  
voltage ripple. Instead, the internal voltage feedback OTA  
compensation output voltage (VCOMP) is used to monitor  
nearDCM operating condition.

Current Limiting and Overcurrent Protection  
When VCOMP reaches a predetermined lower voltage  
threshold, the IC control logic enters pulsedskip mode  
to maintain regulation. Some output voltage ripple  
associated with the pulse skipping is to be expected.  
Current limit activation propagation delay between the  
sense resistor reaching the threshold and the GH gate turning  
off is typically about 39 ns. Voltage regulation continues  
despite slight increase in peak inductor current as a  
consequence of this current limit propagation delay. If the  
peak inductor current occurs after this propagation delay,  
duty ratio will decrease.

Feedback Loop Measurement  
The compensation network and voltage feedback OTA are  
internal to the IC. Monitoring points permitting  
measurements of the modulator controltooutput response  
and the OTA compensation network are not accessible. The  
openloopresponse in closedloopform may be measured  
by injecting a signal between the power supply output and  
ICVOUT. The signal injection path must not share a power  
path; traces to ICVCCEXT and ICCSN must kept outside  
the signal injection path.  
When operating in diodeemulation mode, the OTA  
feedback loop is disabled when pulse skipping occurs and a  
hysteretic type mode control is activated. It may be found in  
literature that feedback loop measurements from small  
signal injection with hysteretic control yields meaningless  
information.

reduced peak radiated emissions. This IC uses a pseudo−  
random generator to set the oscillator frequency to one of 8  
discrete frequency bins. Each digital bin represents a shift in  
frequency by 8.2 kHz over the range 410 kHz to 467 kHz.  
Over time, each bin is used an equal number of times to  
ensure an even spread of the spectrum. This reduces the peak  
energy at the fundamental 410 kHz frequency, and spreads  
it into a wider band.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
Design Methodology  
Choosing external components encompasses the  
following design process:  
applied to the SYNC pin to increase the frequency dynamically  
to avoid given frequencies. A spread spectrum signal could  
also be used for the SYNC input, as long as the lowest  
frequency in the range is above the programmed frequency  
set by ROSC. Additionally, the highest SYNC frequency  
must not exceed maximum switching frequency limits.  
There are two limits on the maximum allowable switching  
frequency: minimum offtime and minimum ontime.  
These set two different maximum switching frequencies, as  
follows:  
1. Operational parameter definition  
2. Switching frequency selection (ROSC)  
3. Output inductor selection  
4. Current sense resistor selection  
5. Output capacitor selection  
6. Input capacitor selection

The switching frequency is programmed by selecting the  
resistor connected between the ROSC pin and ground. The  
grounded side of this resistor should be directly connected  
to the GND pin. Avoid running any noisy signals beneath the  
resistor, as injected noise could cause frequency jitter. The  
graph in Figure 49 shows the required resistance to program  
the frequency.

These are ideal duty cycle expressions; actual duty cycles  
will be marginally higher than these values. Actual duty  
cycles are dependent on load due to voltage drops in the  
MOSFETs, inductor and current sense resistor.  
(3) Output Inductor Selection  
Both mechanical and electrical considerations influence  
the selection of an output inductor. From a mechanical  
perspective, smaller inductor values generally correspond to  
smaller physical size. Since the inductor is often one of the  
largest components in the power supply, a minimum  
inductor value is particularly important in space−  
constrained applications. From an electrical perspective, an  
inductor is chosen for a set amount of ripple current and to  
assure adequate transient response.  
Larger inductor values limit the switcher’s ability to slew  
current through the output inductor in response to output  
load transients, impacting incremental dynamic response.  
While the inductor is slewing current during this time,  
output capacitors must supply the load current. Therefore,  
decreasing the inductance allows for less output capacitance  
to hold the output voltage up during a load transient.  
(2) Switching Frequency Selection (ROSC)  
Selecting the switching frequency is a tradeoff between  
component size and power losses. Operation at higher  
switching frequencies allows the use of smaller inductor and  
capacitor values to achieve the same inductor current ripple  
and output voltage ripple. However, increasing the  
frequency increases the switching losses of the MOSFETs,  
leading to decreased efficiency, especially noticeable at light  
loads.  
Typically, the switching frequency is selected to avoid  
interfering with signals of known frequencies. Often, in this  
case, the frequency can be programmed to a lower value  
with ROSC and then a higherfrequency signal can be

A ripple current dI equaling 2040% of the output rated  
current is a typical objective when selecting an inductor  
value for a duty ratio D normally selected at the nominal  
input operating voltage. The inductor value may be  
calculated using the following expression:  
Alternative current measurement methods such as  
lossless inductor current sensing may be feasible but beyond  
the scope of this document.

(5) Output Capacitor Selection  
When used in conjuncture with ceramic capacitors,  
VOUT @ (1 * D)  
aluminum

bulk  
capacitors  
are  
(eq. 13)  
L +  
dIL @ fS  
recommended instead of aluminum electrolytic capacitors  
due to their low 40°C/25°C ESR ratio. Use of EMI bulk  
capacitors having a high 40°C/25°C ESR ratio may result  
in an ineffective output filter along with potential stability  
issues under cold temperature operating conditions.  
The output capacitor is a basic component for the fast  
response of the power supply. During the first few  
microseconds following a load step, it supplies the  
incremental load current. The controller immediately  
recognizes the load step and increases the duty cycle, but the  
current slew rate is limited by the inductor. During a load  
release, the output voltage will overshoot. The capacitance  
will decrease this undesirable response, decreasing the  
amount of voltage overshoot.  
Inductor saturation current is specified by inductor  
manufacturers as the current at which the inductance value  
has dropped a certain percentage from the nominal value,  
typically 1030%. It is recommended to choose an inductor  
with saturation current sufficiently higher than the peak  
output current, such that the inductance is very close to the  
nominal value at the peak output current. This introduces a  
safety factor and allows for more optimized compensation.  
Inductor efficiency is another consideration when  
selecting an output inductor. Inductor losses include DC and  
AC winding losses as well as core losses. Core losses are  
proportional to the amplitude of the ripple current and  
operating frequency.  
The worst case is when initial current is at the current limit  
and the initial voltage is at the output voltage set point,  
calculating. The overshoot is:  
AC winding losses are based on the AC resistance of the  
winding and the RMS ripple current through the inductor,  
which is much lower than the DC current. AC winding losses  
are due to skin and proximity effects and are typically much  
less than the DC losses, but increase with frequency. The DC  
winding losses in the inductor can be calculated with the  
following equation:

OS(MAX)  
Current sensing for peak current mode control relies on  
the amplitude of the inductor current. The current is  
translated into a voltage via a current sense resistor placed  
in series with the output inductor located between the output  
inductor and capacitors. The resulting voltage is then  
measured differentially by a current sense amplifier,  
generating a singleended output to use as a control signal.  
If a current sense pfilter is implemented as in Figure , the  
following expression may be used to determine the current  
sense resistor value.

A maximum amount of capacitance can be found based on  
the output inductor overshoot current and current limit. To  
calculate the output inductor startup overshoot current, the

During softstart, the inductor current must provide  
current to the load as well as current to charge the output

which the inductor is allowed to conduct. Setting the inrush  
current to the current limit places a limit on the maximum  
capacitor size as follows:

Capacitors should also be chosen to provide acceptable  
scrutiny due to poor ESR cold temperature characteristics.  
As a result of the large ripple current, it is common to place  
ceramic capacitors in parallel with the bulk  
electrolytic/polymer input capacitors to reduce switching  
voltage ripple. A value of 0.01 mF to 0.1 mF placed near the  
MOSFETs is also recommended.  
output voltage ripple with a DC load, in addition to limiting  
voltage overshoot during a dynamic response. Key  
specifications are equivalent series resistance (ESR) and  
equivalent series inductance (ESL). The output capacitors  
must have very low ESL for best transient response. The  
PCB traces will add to the ESL, but by positioning the output  
capacitors close to the load, this effect can be minimized and  
ESL neglected when determining output voltage ripple.

The input EMI capacitors must sustain the ripple current  
produced during the on time of the highside MOSFET and  
must have a low ESR to minimize the losses. The RMS value  
of this ripple is:  
(7) Thermal Considerations  
This controller is intended to be used in applications  
where currents of above 10 A may exist. The following  
should be considered for best performance.  
Use of 2 oz (70 micron) copper for the high current  
handling layers.  
4 layer (or more) boards are best suited to facilitate  
thermal management of lossy devices (output inductor,  
MOSFETs, IC)

High frequency layout methods dictate that the

MOSFET switches. Inadequate thermal management

significant localized PCB temperature rise from  
thermal coupling between devices and caseambient  
thermal resistances. Resulting IC (and MOSFET)  
case temperatures may become significantly higher  
than ambient temperature.

Input capacitor RMS current losses may be calculated
