R1272S Series  
34 V Input Synchronous Step-down DC / DC Controller  
NO.EA-351-151001  
OUTLINE  
The R1272S is a step-down DC/DC controller which can generate an output voltage of 0.7 V to 5.3 V by driving  
external high- / low-side NMOSs. By the adoption of a unique current mode PWM architecture without an  
external current sense resistor, the R1272S can make up a stable DC/DC converter with high-efficiency even  
if adding low Ron MOSFETs and a low DCR inductor externally. And, by the frequency characteristics  
optimization with using external phase compensation capacitor, the R1272S can achieve a high-speed  
response to variations of input voltage and load current. The user-settable oscillation frequency is adjustable  
over a range of 250 kHz to 1 MHz1 by external resistors, and also can be synchronized to an external clock.  
Output Voltage Control Methods have three operating modes: Forced PWM mode, PLL_PWM mode, and  
PWM/VFM Auto-switching mode. These modes are selectable according to conditions of the MODE pin.  
Especially, the PWM/VFM Auto-switching mode can improve efficiency under light load conditions.  
When the input voltage drops down at cranking, to hold the output voltage level, the R1272S reduces the off-  
duty by decrease the operation frequency below one-quarter so that the input-output difference voltage  
becomes small.  
Protection functions include a current limit function, an UVLO (Under Voltage Lock Out) function, an OVP (Over  
Voltage Protection) function, a soft-start function, a low-inductor current shutdown function, and so on. Also, a  
power good function provide the status of output with using a power good (PGOOD) pin.  
For EMI reduction, SSCG (Spread-Spectrum Clock Generation) for diffused oscillation frequency at the PWM  
operation is optionally available. The R1272S is available in HSOP-18 package.

OPERATING DESCRIPTIONS  
MODE Pin Function  
The R1272S operating mode is switched among the forced PWM mode, PWM/VFM auto-switching mode and  
PLL_PWM mode, by a voltage or a pulse applied to MODE pin. The forced PWM mode is selected when the  
voltage of the MODE pin is more than 1.33 V, and the PWM works regardless of a load current. The PWM/VFM  
auto-switching mode is selected when it is less than 0.74 V, and control is switched between a PWM mode  
and a VFM mode depending on the load current.  
See Forced PWM mode and VFM mode for details. And see Frequency Synchronization Function for the  
operation on connecting an external clock.  
Frequency Synchronization Function  
The R1272S can synchronize to the external clock being inputted via the MODE pin, with using a PLL (Phase-  
locked loop). The forced PWM mode is selected during synchronization. The external clock with a pulse-width  
of 100 ns or more is required. The allowable range of oscillation frequency is 0.5 to 1.5 times of the set  
frequency1, and the operating guaranteed frequency is in the 250 kHz to 1 MHz range2. The R1272S can  
synchronize to the external clock even if the soft-start works. That is, the R1272S executes the soft-start and  
the synchronization functions at a time if having started up while inputting an external clock to the MODE pin.  
PGOOD (Power Good) Output Function  
The power good function with using a NMOS open drain output pin can detect the following states of the  
R1272S. The NMOS turns on and the PGOOD pin becomes “Low” when detecting them. After the R1272S  
returns to their original state, the NMOS turns off and the PGOOD pin outputs “High” (PGOOD Input Voltage:  
VUP).

The PGOOD pin is designed to become 0.54 V or less in “Low” level as the flag when the current floating to  
the PGOOD pin is 1 mA. The use of the PGOOD input voltage (VUP) of 5.5 V or less and the pull-up resistor  
(RPG) of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ are recommended. If not using the PGOOD pin, connect it to “Open” or “GND”.

Under Voltage Detection (UVD)  
The UVD function indirectly monitors the output voltage with using the FB pin. The PGOOD pin outputs “L”  
when the UVD detector threshold is 90% (Typ.) of VFB and VFB is less than the UVD detector threshold for  
more than 30 µs (Typ.). When VFB is over 93% (Typ.) of 0.64 V, the PGOOD pin outputs “H” after delay time  
(Typ.120 µs.). And, the hiccup- / latch-type overcurrent protection works when detecting an overcurrent, an LX  
power supply protection, or an over voltage protection during the UVD detection.  
Over Voltage Detection (OVD)  
The OVD function indirectly monitors the output voltage with using the FB pin. Switching stops even if the  
internal circuit is active state, when detecting the over voltage of VFB. The PGOOD pin outputs “L” when the  
OVD detector threshold is 110% (Typ.) of VFB and VFB is over the OVD detector threshold for more than 30 µs  
(Typ.). When VFB is under 107% (Typ.) of VFB, which is the OVD released voltage, the PGOOD pin outputs “H”  
after delay time (Typ.120 µs.). Then, switching is controlled by normal operation. The over voltage protection  
works when an error is caused by a feedback resistor in peripheral circuits for the FB pin.  
Over Voltage Protection (OVP)  
The OVP function monitors the voltage of VOUT pin to reduce an over voltage, when an error is caused in  
peripheral circuits for the FB pin. Switching stops even if the internal circuit is active state, when VOUT is over  
the OVP detector threshold. When VOUT is under the OVP detector threshold, switching is controlled by normal  
operation. If the UVD for FB pin occur during the OVP detect state, an error will occur and hiccup- / latch-type  
protection will work. However, the operation under this function is not guaranteed because the OVP detector  
threshold is set to the absolute maximum rating and more for the VOUT pin.  
LX Power Supply (VIN Short) / GND (GND Short) Protection  
In addition to normal current limit, the R1272S provides the LX power supply / GND short protection to monitor  
the voltage between the FET’s drain and source. Since the current limit function is controlled with an external  
inductor’s DCR or a sense resistance, the current limit function cannot work when a flow-through current is  
generated on FET and when an overcurrent is generated by shorting the LX pin to VDD/GND. The detecting  
current is determined by LX shot to VDD/GND detector threshold voltage (FET_ON-Resistance x Current,  
Typ.0.43 V).  
Hiccup-type / Latch-type Overcurrent Protection  
The hiccup-type / latch-type overcurrent protection can work under the operating conditions that is the UVD  
can function during the current limit or OVP and the LX GND short protection. The latch-type protection can  
release the circuit by setting the CE pin to “L” or by reducing VIN to be less than the UVLO detector threshold,  
when the output is latched off. The hiccup type protection stops switching releases the circuit after the  
protection delay time (Typ. 3.5 ms). Since this protection is auto-release, the CE pin switching of “L” / “H” is  
unnecessary. And, damage due to the overheating might not be caused because the term to release is long.  
When the output is shorted to GND, switching of “ON” / “OFF” is repeated until the shorting is released.

Current Limit Function  
The current limit function can be to limit the current by the peak current method to turn the high-side transistor  
off that the potential differences is over the current limit threshold voltage. The threshold voltage is selectable  
among 50 mV / 70 mV / 100 mV. And, the two following detection methods can be selected by external  
components connected.  
A. Detecting Method with RSENSE  
The current limit value is detected with the voltage across the inductor that a sense resistance is connected in  
series. By connecting a resistance with low level of variation, the current limit with high accuracy can achieve.  
As a result, be caution that the power loss is caused from the current and RSENSE. The peak current in the  
current limit inductor can be calculated by the following equation.  
Peak current in Current limit inductor (A) = Current limit threshold voltage (mV) / RSENSE (Ω)

B. Detecting Method with DCR of Inductor  
The current limit value is detected with the DCR of the inductor. The reduction of the loss is minimized since  
the inductor is in no need of a resistance. But, the SENSE pin requires to connect a resistor and a capacitor  
to each end of the inductor. Because a constant slope is caused depending on the inductance and the  
capacitance. Factors causing the poor accuracy of current limit value include the variation in production of the  
inductor’s DCR and the temperature characteristics. RS and CS can be calculated by the following equation.

Output Voltage Setting  
The output voltage (VOUT) can be set by adjustable values of RTOP and RBOT. The value of VOUT can be  
calculated by the following equation (1) :  
VOUT = VFB × (RTOP + RBOT) / RBOT ······················································································· (1)  
For example, when setting VOUT = 3.3 V and setting RBOT = 22 kΩ, RTOP can be calculated by substituting them  
to the equation (1). As a result of the expanding equation (2), RTOP can be set to 91.4 kΩ.  
To make 91.4 kΩ with using the E24 type resistors, the connecting use of 91 kΩ and 0.39 kΩ resistors in series  
is required. If the tolerance level of the set output voltage is wide, using a resistor of 91 kΩ to RTOP can reduce  
the number of components.

Oscillation Frequency Setting  
Connecting the oscillation frequency setting resistor (RRT) between the RT pin and GND can control the  
oscillation frequency in the range of 250 kHz to 1 MHz1. For example, using the resistor of 66 kΩ can set the  
frequency of about 500 kHz.  
The Electrical Characteristics guarantees the oscillation frequency under the conditions stated below for fOSC0  
(at RRT = 135 kΩ) and fOSC1 (at RRT = 55 kΩ).

Soft-start Function  
The soft-start time is a time between a rising edge (“H” level) of the CE pin and the timing when the output  
voltage reaches the set output voltage. Connecting a capacitor (CSS) to the CSS / TRK pin can adjust the soft-  
start time (tSS) – provided the internal soft-start time of 500 µs (Typ.) as a lower limit. The adjustable soft-start  
time (tSS2) is 1.6 ms (Typ.) when connecting an external capacitor of 4.7 nF with the charging current of 2.0  
μA (Typ.). If not required to adjust the soft-start time, set the CSS / TRK pin to “Open” to enable the internal  
soft-start time (tSS1) of 500 µs (Typ.).  
Each of soft-start time (tss1/ tss2) is guaranteed under the conditions described in the chapter of “Electrical  
Characteristics”.

Tracking Function  
Applying an external tracking voltage to the CSS / TRK pin can control the soft-start sequence – provided that  
the lowest internal soft-start time is limited to 500 µs (Typ.). Since VFB becomes nearly equal to VCSS/TRK at  
tracking, the complex start timing and soft-start can be easily designed. The available voltage at tracking is  
between 0 V and 0.64 V. If the tracking voltage is over 0.64 V, the internal reference voltage of 0.64 V is  
enabled. Also, an arbitrary falling waveform can be generated by reducing VCSS/TRK to 0.64 V (Typ.) or less,  
because the R1272S supports both of up- and down- tracking.

Min. ON-time  
The min. ON time (Max. 120 ns), which is determined in the R1272S internal circuit, is a minimum time to turn  
high-side FET on. The R1272S cannot generate a pulse width less than the min. ON time. Therefore, settings  
of the output set voltage and the oscillator frequency are required so that the minimum step-down ratio  
[VOUT/VIN x (1 / fOSC)] does not stay below 120ns. If staying below 120 ns, the pulse skipping will operate to  
stabilize the output voltage. However, the ripple current and the output voltage ripple will be larger.  
Min. OFF-time  
By the adoption of bootstrap method, the high-side FET, which is used as the R1272S internal circuit for the  
min. OFF time, is used a NMOS . The voltage sufficient to drive the high-side FET must be charged. Therefore,  
the min. OFF time is determined from the required time to charge the voltage. By the adoption of the  
frequency’s reduction method by one-quarter of a set value (Min.), if the input-output difference voltage  
becomes small or load transients are caused, the OFF period can be caused once in four-cycle period of  
normal cycle. As a result, the min. OFF time becomes 30 ns (Typ.) substantially, and the maximum duty cycle  
can be improved.

Through-type Current Protection  
The HGATE pin voltage (VHGATE) and the LGATE pin voltage (VLGATE) are monitored to protect a through-type  
current caused by an external FET. For example, if the HGATE pin changes from “High” to “Low” (that is, VHGATE  
is less than 1 V), boosting of VLGATE can control not to turn high- / low- both side of the FET on, in order to  
protect the through-type current. If the LGATE pin changes form “High” to “Low”, this protection will work  
likewise.  
Reverse Current Limit Function  
The reverse current limit function works when the output voltage is pulled up more than the set output voltage  
by shorting. When the current is over the threshold current to detect the reverse current, the LGATE pin  
becomes to “L” to control the reverse current. As with the current limit value, the reverse current limit value is  
determined by the voltage between the VOUT pin and the SENSE pin. The detector threshold is one half of  
the current limit value.  
SSCG (Spread Spectrum Clock Generator)  
The SSCG function works for EMI reduction at the PWM mode. This function is enabled in the R1272S03xA.  
This function make EMI waveforms decrease in amplitude to generate a ramp waveform within approximately  
±3.6% (Typ.) of the oscillator frequency (fOSC). The modulation cycle is fOSC / 128. At the VFM mode, the SSCG  
is disabled.  
Bad Frequency (BADFREQ) Protection  
If a current equivalent to 2 MHz (Typ.) or more or 125 kHz (Typ.) or less is applied to the RT pin when the  
resistor of the RT pin is in open / short, the R1272S will stop switching to protect the IC and will cause the  
internal state to transition to its state before the soft-start. The CLKOUT pin is fixed to “L” while the bad  
frequency as above is detected. The R1272S will restart under the normal control from the state of soft-start  
when recover after the abnormal condition.

Operation of the Step-down Converter  
A basic step-down DC/DC converter circuit is illustrated in the following figures. This DC/DC converter charges  
energy in the inductor when the high-side transistor turns on, and discharges the energy from the inductor  
when the high-side transistor turns off and controls with less energy loss, so that a lower output voltage than  
the input voltage is obtained.

Basic Circuit  
Current Through Inductor  
Step1. The high-side transistor turns on and current IL (= i1) flows, and energy is charged into COUT. At this  
moment, IL increases from ILMIN (= 0) to reach ILMAX in proportion to the on-time period (ton) of the  
high-side transistor turns on and current IL (= i1) flows, and energy is charged into COUT. At this  
moment, IL increases from ILMIN (= 0) to reach ILMAX in proportion to the on-time period (tON) of the  
high-side transistor.  
Step2. When the high-side transistor turns off, the low-side transistor turns on in order to maintain IL at ILMAX  
,
and current IL (= i2) flows.  
Step3. When MODE = L (VFM/PWM Auto-switching mode),  
IL (= i2) decreases gradually and reaches IL = ILMIN = 0 after a time period of tOPEN, and the low-side  
transistor turns off. This case is called as discontinuous mode. The VFM mode is switched if go to  
the discontinuous mode. If the output current is increased, a time period of tOFF runs out prior to reach  
of IL = ILMIN = 0. The result is that the high-side transistor turns on and the low-side transistor turns off  
in the next cycle. This case is called continuous mode.  
When MODE = H (Forced PWM mode), MODE = External Clock (PLL_PWM mode),  
Since the continuous mode works at all time, the low-side transistor turns on until going to the next  
cycle. That is, the low-side transistor must keep “On” to meet IL = ILMIN < 0, when reaches IL = ILMIN  
0 after a time period of tOPEN  
=
.
In the PWM mode, the output voltage is maintained constant by controlling tON with the constant switching  
frequency (fOSC).

NO.EA-351-151001  
Forced PWM Mode and VFM Mode  
The output voltage control methods are selectable between the PWM / VFM Auto-switching mode and the  
forced PWM mode by using the MODE pin.  
Forced PWM Mode  
Forced PWM mode is selected when setting the MODE pin to “H”. This mode can reduce the output noise,  
since the frequency is fixed during light load conditions. Thus, ILMIN becomes less than "0" when IOUT is less  
than IL/2. That is, the electric charge, which is charged to COUT, is discharged via FET for the durations –  
when IL reaches “0” from ILMIN during the tON periods and when IL reaches ILMIN from “0” during tOFF periods.  
VFM Mode  
PWM / VFM Auto-switching mode is selected when setting the MODE pin to “L”. This mode can automatically  
switch from PWM to VFM to achieve a high-efficiency during light load conditions. By the VFM mode  
architecture, the high-side FET is turned on for tON x 1.54 (typ.) at the PWM mode under the same condition  
as the VFM mode when the VFB pin voltage drops below the internal reference voltage (Typ.0.64 V). After the  
On-time, the high-side FET is turned off and the low-side FET is turned on. When the inductor current of 0 A  
is detected, the low-side FET is turned off and the switching operation is stopped (Both of hi- and low-side  
FETs are OFF). The switching operation restarts when the VFB pin voltage becomes less than 0.64 V.  
The On-time at the PWM mode is determined by a resistance, input and output voltages, which are connected  
to the RT pin. Refer to “Calculation of VFM Ripple” for detailed description on the On-time at the VFM mode.

Calculation of VFM Ripple  
Calculation example of output ripple voltage (VOUT_VFM) is described. VOUT_VFM can be calculated by the  
following equation (1). And, the maximum value of inductor current (IL_VFM) can be calculated by the following  
equation (2).  
VOUT_VFM = RCOUT_ESR × (IL_VFM) + COEF_TON_VFM × (IL_VFM / 2) / fOSC / COUT_EFF ··································· (1)

Output voltage can be calculated by the following simple equation.  
VOUT = I × T/C  
I : Current, C : Capacitance, T : Time  
Since I is represented by 1/2 x IL_VFM as the average current, the time of current passing at the VFM mode can  
be expressed by the following equation.  
T = COEF_TON_VFM / fOSC  
And, the output ripple voltage (VOUT_VFM) is superimposed a voltage for ESR × I, and the equation (1) is  
determined. But, ESR is so small that it may be ignored if ceramic capacitors are connected in parallel.  
The amount of charge to the output capacitor can be calculated by the following equation (3).  
(High-side FET’s On-time (T1) + Low-side FET’s On-time (T2)) × Average amount of current·········· (3)  
Then, T1 and T2 can be calculated by the following equations, and the time of current passing can be  
determined.  
T1 = COEF_TON_VFM / fOSC × VOUT / VIN····· (On-time at VFM)  
T2 = (VIN/VOUT-1) × T1 (0 = IL_VFM – VOUT/L × T2)  
T = T1 + T2  
= VIN /VOUT × T1  
= COEF_TON_VFM / fOSC  
And then, the amount of charge can be determine as the following equation (4).  
T x IL_VFM /2 = COEF_TON_VFM / fOSC × IL_VFM /2 ·········································································· (4)  
With using above-equations, the output ripple voltage (VOUT_VFM) can be calculated by the following equation  
(5).

Selection of External Components  
External components and its value required for R1272S are described. Each value is reference value at initial.  
Since inductor’s variations and output capacitor’s effective value may lead a drift of phase characteristics,  
adjustment to a unity-gain and phase characteristics may be required by evaluation on the actual unit.  
1. Determination of Requirements  
Determine the frequency, the output capacitor, and the input voltage required. For reference values,  
parameters listed in the following table will be used to explain each equation.

)
2. Selection of Unity-gain frequency (fUNITY  
)
The unity-gain frequency (fUNITY) is determined by the frequency that the loop gain becomes “1” (zero dB). It is  
recommended to select within the range of one-sixth to one-tenth of the oscillator frequency (fOSC). Since the  
f
UNITY determines the transient response, the higher the fUNITY, the faster response is achieved, but the phase  
margin will be tight. Therefore, it is required that the fUNITY can secure the adequate stability. As for the reference,  
the fUNITY is set to 70 kHz.  
3. Selection of Inductor  
After the input and the output voltages are determined, a ripple current (IL) for the inductor current is  
determined by an inductance (L) and an oscillator frequency (fOSC). The ripple current (IL) can be calculated  
by the following equation (1).  
IL= (VOUT / L / fOSC) x (1-VOUT / VIN_MAX) ··················································································· (1)  
VIN_MAX : Maximum input voltage  
The core loss in the inductor and the ripple current of the output voltage become small when the ripple current  
(IL) is small. But, a large inductance is required as shown by the equation (1). The inductance can be  
calculated by the following equation (2) when a reference value of IL assumes 30% of IOUT is appropriate  
value.  
L = (VOUT / IL / fOSC) x (1-VOUT / VIN_MAX)··················································································· (2)  
= (VOUT / (IOUT x 0.3) / fOSC) x (1-VOUT / VIN_MAX  
)
24  
R1272S  
NO.EA-351-151001  
The inductance can be calculated by substituting each parameter to the equation (2).  
L = (3.3 V / 3 A / 500 kHz) x (1-3.3 V / 16 V)  
= 1.75 µH  
When selecting the inductor of 2.2µH as an approximate value of the above calculated value, IL can be shown  
as below.  
IL = (3.3 V / 2.2 µH / 500 kHz) x (1-3.3 V / 16 V)  
= 2.38 A  
4. Setting of Output Capacitance  
The output capacitance (COUT) must be set to meet the following conditions.  
Calculation based on phase margin  
To secure the adequate stability, it is recommended that the pole frequency (fP_OUT) is set to become equal or  
below one-fourteenth of the unity-gain frequency. The pole frequency (fP_OUT) can be calculated by the following  
equation (3).  
f
P_OUT = 1/(2 x π x COUT_EFF x ((ROUT_MIN x 2 x π x fOSC x L) / (ROUT_MIN + 2 x π x fOSC x L) + RCOUT_ESR))  
············(3)  
COUT_EFF : Output capacitance (rms)  
ROUT_MIN : Output resistance at maximum output current  
ROUT_MIN = VOUT/ IOUT  
= 3.3 V / 10 A  
= 0.33 Ω  
The following equation (4) can be expressed by substituting fP_OUT = fUNITY / 14 to the equation (3).  
C
OUT_EFF = 14 / (2 ×π× fUNITY × ((ROUT_MIN × 2 ×π× fOSC × L) / (ROUT_MIN + 2 ×π× fOSC × L) + RCOUT_ESR))  
············ (4)  
Then, the output capacitance (rms) can be calculated by substituting each parameter to the equation (4).  
C
OUT_EFF =14 / (2 ×π×70kHz×((0.33Ω × 2 ×π× 500 kHz × 2.2 µH) / (0.33Ω+ 2 ×π× 500kHz × 2.2µH)+3mΩ))  
= 100.1 µF  
It is recommended that the output capacitance is set to become equal or over the value (rms) calculated by  
the equation (4).  
The output capacitance (rms), which is derated depending on the DC voltage applied, can be calculated by  
the following equation (5). Refer to “Capacitor Manufacture’s Datasheet” for details about derating.

COUT_EFF = COUT_SET × (VCO_AB - VOUT) / VCO_AB ··········································································· (5)  
COUT_SET : Output capacitor’s spec  
VCO_AB : Capacitor’s voltage rating  
With using the equation (5), the effective value (rms) is calculated to become 100.1 µF or more. The output  
voltage (COUT) can be shown as below when VCO_AB is 10 V.  
C
OUT_SET > COUT_EFF / ((VCO_AB - VOUT) / VCO_AB)  
COUT_SET > 100.1µF / ((10 - 3.3) / 10)  
COUT > 149.4 µF  
As the calculated result, COUT selects a capacitor of 150 µF (rms is 100.5 µF).  
Calculation based on ripple at VFM mode  
With using the calculated value of COUT, the amount of ripple at the VFM mode can be shown as the following  
equations of (6) and (7).  
IL_VFM = ((VIN_MAX-VOUT) / L) × COEF_TON_VFM × VOUT / VIN_MAX / fOSC ··················································· (6)  
VOUT_VFM = RCOUT_ESR × (IL_VFM) + COEF_TON_VFM × (IL_VFM / 2) / fOSC / COUT_EFF ····································· (7)  
IL_VFM : Maximum current of inductor  
COEF_TON_VFM : On-time scaling (multiples of PWM_ON time)  
VOUT_VFM : Maximum output ripple  
COEF_TON_VFM can be calculated by 1.54 times (Typ.) as the design value. The ripple value can be calculated by  
substituting each parameter to the equations of (6) and (7).  
IL_VFM = ((16 V - 3.3 V ) / 2.2 µH) × 1.54 × 3.3 V / 16 V / 500 kHz  
= 3.67 A  
VOUT_VFM = 3 mΩ ×3.67 A + 1.54 × (3.67 A / 2) / 500 kHz / 100.5 µF  
= 67.2 mV  
VOUT_VFM must be set to become the target ripple value or less. If VOUT_VFM is over the target value, the output  
capacitance must be calculated by the following equation (8).  
C
OUT_EFF = 1.54 × (IL_VFM / 2) / fOSC / (VOUT_VFM - RCOUT_ESR × (IL_VFM)) ··············································· (8)  
5. Designation of Phase Compensation  
Since the current amplifier for the voltage feedback is output via the COMP pin, the phase compensation is  
achieved with using external components. The phase compensation is able to secure stable operation with  
using an external ceramic capacitor and the phase compensation circuit.

Calculation of RC  
The phase compensation resistance (RC) to set the calculated unity-gain frequency can be calculated by the  
following equation (9).  
RC = 2 ×π× fUNITY × VOUT × COUT_EFF / (gm_ea × VREF × gm_pwr) ························································ (9)  
gm_ea : Error amplifier of gm  
VREF : Reference voltage (0.64 V)  
gm_pwr : power level of gm  
gm_pwr × VS = IL  
gm_ea / VS = 0.05 × 10 ^ 6 × fOSC / VOUT  
gm_ea × gm_pwr = 0.05 × 10 ^ 6 ×IL × fOSC / VOUT ·······································································(10)  
VS : Output amplitude of the slope circuit  
RC can be calculated by substituting the equation (10) to the equation (9).  
RC = 2 ×π× fUNITY × VOUT × COUT_EFF / (VREF × 0.05 × 10 ^ 6 × IL × fOSC / VOUT  
)
= 2 ×π× 70 kHz × 3.3 V × 100.5 µF / (0.64 × 0.05 × 10 ^ 6 × 2.38A × 500 kHz / 3.3 V)  
=12.63 13 kΩ  
Calculation of CC  
CC must be calculated by the equation (11) so that the zero frequency of the error amplifier meets the highest  
pole frequency (fP_OUT). Then, fP_OUT = 5.0 kHz is determined by calculation of the equation (3).  
CC = 1 / (2 ×π× RC × fP_OUT) ································································································(11)

Calculation of CC2  
C
C2 can be calculated by two different calculation methods to vary from the zero frequency (fZ_ESR) depending  
on the ESR of a capacitor. Z_ESR can be calculated by the equation (12).  
f
fZ_ESR = 1 / (2 ×π× RCOUT_ESR × COUT_EFF) ···············································································(12)

[When the zero frequency is lower than fOSC / 2]  
CC2 sets the pole to fZ_ESR  
.
CC2 = RCOUT_ESR × COUT_EFF / RC·····························································································(13)  
[When the zero frequency is higher fOSC / 2]  
C
C2 sets the pole to fOSC / 2 so as to be a noise filter for the COMP pin.  
fOSC / 2 = 1 / (2 ×π× RC × CC2)  
CC2 = 2 / (2 ×π× RC × fOSC)··································································································(14)  
In the reference example, CC2 is used as the noise filter for the COMP pin because of being higher than fOSC/2.  
CC2 = 49 47 pF  
Calculation of CSPD

SPD sets the zero frequency to meet the unity-gain frequency.

When RBOT = 22 kΩ,  
RTOP = 22 k × (3.3 V / 0.64 V -1)

Cautions in Selecting External Components  
Inductor  
Choose an inductor that has small DC resistance, has sufficient allowable current and is hard to cause  
magnetic saturation. The inductance value must be determined with consideration of load current under the  
actual condition. If the inductance value of an inductor is extremely small, the peak current of LX may  
increase along with the load current. As a result, the current limit circuit may start to operate when the peak  
current of LX reaches to “LX limit current”.  
Capacitor  
Choose a capacitor that has a sufficient margin to the drive voltage ratings with consideration of the DC  
bias characteristics and the temperature characteristics.  
The combined use of a ceramic capacitor and an electrolyte capacitor is recommended though CIN is able  
to connect a ceramic capacitor. Especially, choose the electrolyte capacitor with the lowest possible ESR  
with consideration of the allowable ripple current rating (IRMS). IRMS can be calculated by the following  
equation.  
IRMS IOUT/ VIN x { VOUT x (VIN – VOUT) }  
FET  
Gate – Source Voltage  
When considering variations in production and margin, a FET with a withstand voltage of 10 V or more is  
recommended despite the 5 V high and low driver.  
Gate Threshold Voltage  
Choose a FET with the threshold voltage between 1.0 V (Min.) and 3.4 V (Max.) with consideration of  
variations in production and margin.  
Drain Current  
Choose a FET having a sufficient margin with consideration of peak current and limit current.  
Connection of Body Diode for Source Current  
Choose a diode with the withstand current over the reverse limit current rating. The R1272S reverse current  
value becomes one-half of the normal limit current value.  
On-resistance (RDS (on)) & All Gate Capacitance (Qg)  
Choose a FET with the lowest possible characteristics because having an influence on efficiency. Generally,  
a high-performance FET is rated that RDS x Qq (performance figure) is small.  
FET Losses  
The FET total loss is calculated by the sum of the switching losses when the high side and the low side  
FETs turning-on / off and the conduction losses by the FET’s on-resistance. If the total loss become larger  
than expected, the external FET must be selected with consideration of the on-resistance, the switching  
losses and the package’s power dissipation. The following figure shows the timing chart of the high side /  
low side FETs at normal switching. The loss at each delay time can be calculated as follows.

t1 (t5):  
For the duration between the high side FET’s turn-on and the low side FET’s turn-off, the loss occurs to  
supply a current from the body diode on the low side FET. Likewise, for the duration between the high side  
FET’s turn-off and the low side FET’s turn-on, the loss occurs. The losses (PDEAD) for t1 and t5 can be  
calculated by the following equation.  
PDEAD = VF × IOUT × fOSC × (tDEAD1 + tDEAD5  
)
VF: The forward voltage of a body-diode  
t
DEAD1: The delay time from the instant when the gate-source voltage (VGS) falls below the threshold voltage  
(VTH) on the low side FET to the instant when VGS exceeds VTH on the high side FET.  
tDEAD5: The delay time from the instant when VGS falls below VTH on the high side FET to the instant when  
VGS exceeds VTH on the low side FET.  
t2 (t4):  
Since the drain-source voltage (VDS) is equal to VIN when the high side FET turns on/off after delay time  
(tDEAD1 / tDEAD5), the source current and the output current (IOUT) become equal. Therefore, a large loss  
occurs. The losses (PSW) at turn-on / off can be calculated by the following equation.  
PSW = 1/2 × VIN × IOUT × fOSC × (tRISE + tFALL)  
30  
R1272S  
NO.EA-351-151001  
tRISE: A duration between the gate voltage rising start time from the threshold voltage and the end of  
stabilized voltage (VSP) on the high side FET.  
tFALL: A duration between the start time of the gate voltage stabilizing and the falling time below the threshold  
voltage on the high side FET.  
For the stabilized duration, VGS of the high side FET remains constant roughly since the gate charge current  
is used to charge CGD. And, the reverse recovery loss (PRR) occurs to recover the body diode of the low  
side FET when the high side FET turns on. Refer to the FET datasheet for information about the electric  
charge (Qrr) required for recovery.  
PRR = VIN × Qrr × fOSC  
And, the power (PGH, PGL) for electric charge of the FET’ gate and the power (POSSH, POSSL) for electric  
charge of the FET’s output capacity occur. Each power can be calculated by following equations. Refer to  
the FET datasheet for detailed values.

t3 (t6):  
For the duration of t3, the conduction loss of the high side FET (PHS(on)) occurs. For the duration of t6, the  
conduction loss of the low side FET (PLS(on)) occurs. Each loss can be calculated by the following equation.  
ON duty is closely analogous to VIN / VOUT

R
ONH, RONL: On-resistance for High- /Low- side FETs  
31  
R1272S  
NO.EA-351-151001  
Since the conduction loss depends on the duty, the loss varies with step-down ratio. When the step-down  
ratio is large and the ON duty is small, the loss of the low side FET becomes larger, and when the ratio is  
small, the loss of the high side FET becomes larger. From above equations, each loss of the high side and  
the low side FETs can be calculated by the following equations.  
P
HS = PHS (on) + PSW + PRR + PGH + POSSH  
LS = PLS (on) + PGL + POSSL + PDEAD  
P
As is evident from these equations, the switching loss becomes predominant when the input voltage and  
the frequency are high, and the conduction loss conversely becomes predominant when they are low.

TECHNICAL NOTES  
The performance of power source circuits using this IC largely depends on peripheral circuits. When selecting  
the peripheral components, please consider the conditions of use. Do not allow each component, PCB pattern  
or the IC to exceed their respected rated values (voltage, current, and power) when designing the peripheral  
circuits.  
External components must be connected as close as possible to the ICs and make wiring as short as  
possible. Especially, the capacitor connected in between VIN pin and GND pin must be wiring the shortest.  
If their impedance is high, internal voltage of the IC may shift by the switching current, and the operating  
may be unstable. Make the power supply and GND lines sufficient.  
Place a capacitor (COUT) to keep a distance between CIN and COUT in order to avoid the high-  
frequency noise by input.  
AGND and PGND for the controller must be wired to the GND line at the low impedance point of the same  
layer with CIN and COUT  
.
Place a capacitor (CBST) as close as possible to the LX pin and the BST pin. If controlling slew rate  
for EMI, a land pattern to add a resistor (RBST) in series to CBST must be provided.  
The tab on the bottom of the HSOP-18 package must be connected to GND when mounted on the  
board. To improve thermal dissipation on the multilayer board, set via to release the heat to the other  
layer in the connecting part of the tab on the bottom. Likewise, thermal dissipation for FET is required.  
The NC pin must be set to “Open”.  
The MODE pin requires the H / L voltages with the high stability when the forced PWM mode (MODE =  
“H”) or the VFM mode (MODE = “L”) is enabled. If the voltage with the high stability cannot be applied,  
connection to the VCC pin as “H” level or the AGND pin as “L” level is recommended. If connecting to the  
PGND pin as noisy, a malfunction may occur. Avoid the use of the MODE pin being “Open”.  
If VOUT is a minus potential, the setup cannot occur.  
The power for the controller and for the high-side FET must be used on the same power supply, since the  
internal slope compensation is applied as the power supply voltage of the high-side FET is equal to the  
controller’s. If applying the other power supply voltage, the controller will become unstable owing to the  
inappropriate slope compensation.
