SC2443
Dual-Phase Single or Two Output
Synchronous Step-Down Controller
POWER MANAGEMENT
Description
Features
The SC2443 is a high-frequency dual synchronous step-down
switching power supply controller. It provides out-of-phase
high-current output gate drives to all N-channel MOSFET power
stages. The SC2443 operates in synchronous continuous-con-
duction mode. Both phases are capable of maintaining regula-
tion with sourcing or sinking load currents, making the SC2443
suitable for generating both VDDQ and the tracking VTT for
DDR applications.
u Wide input voltage range: 4.7V to 16V
u 0.5V feedback voltage for low-voltage outputs
u Programmable frequency up to 1 MHz per phase
u 2-Phase synchronous continuous conduction mode for
high efficiency step-down converters
u Out-of-phase operation for low input current ripples
u Output source and sink currents
u Fixed frequency peak current-mode control
u 75mV/-110mV maximum current sense voltage
u Inductor DCR current-sensing for low-cost applications
u Dual outputs or 2-phase single output operation
u Excellent current sharing between individual phases
u Individual soft-start, overload shutdown and enable
u External reference input for DDR applications
u External synchronization
The SC2443 employs fixed frequency peak current-mode con-
trol for the ease of frequency compensation and fast transient
response.
The dual-phase step-down controllers of the SC2443 can be
used to produce two individually controlled and regulated out-
puts or a single output with shared current in each phase. The
Step-down controllers operate from an input of at least 4.7V
and are capable of regulating outputs as low as 0.5V
u Industrial temperature range
u 4mm X 4mm X1mm 24-lead MLPQ package
Applications
u Telecommunication power supplies
u DDR memory power supplies
u Graphic power supplies
Individual soft-start and overload shutdown timer is included
in each step-down controller. The SC2443 implements hiccup
overload protection. In single output current share configura-
tion, the master timer controls the soft-start and overload shut-
down functions of both controllers.

Applications Information
Description
The supply voltages for the high-side gate drivers are
obtained from two diode-capacitor bootstrap circuits. If
the bootstrap capacitor is charged from VCC, the high-
side gate drive voltage swing will be from approximately
2VCC to the ground. The power dissipated in the high-
side gate driver is not higher with higher voltage swing
because the gate-source voltage of the high-side MOSFET
still swing from zero to VCC. The outputs of the low-side
gate drivers swing from VCC to ground.
The SC2443 is a constant frequency 2-phase current-mode
step-downPWMswitchingcontrollerdrivingallN-channel
MOSFET. The two channels of the controller operate at
ꢀ80 degrees out-of-phase from each other. Since input
currents are interleaved in a two-phase converter, input
ripple current is lower and smaller input capacitor can
be used for filtering. Also, with lower inductor current
and smaller inductor ripple current per phase, overall I2R
losses are reduced.
The SC2443 has internal ramp-compensation to prevent
sub-harmonic oscillation when operating above 50%
duty cycle. There is enough ramp internally for a sensed
voltage ripple between ꢀ/4 to ꢀ/3 of the full-scale sensed
voltage limit of 75mV. The maximum sensed voltage limit
is unaffected by the compensating ramp.
The SC2443 operates in synchronous continuous-
conduction mode. It can be configured either as two
independent step-down controllers producing two
separate outputs or as a dual-phase single-output
controller by tying the IN2- pin to VCC. In single output
operation, the channel one error amplifier controls both
channels and the channel two error amplifier is disabled.
Soft-start and overload hiccup of both channels is
synchronized to channel one.
Current-Sensing
There are two ways to sense the inductor current for
current-mode control with the SC2443. Since the peak
inductor current corresponds to 75mV of sensed voltage
(CS+ - CS-), resistor current sensing can be used at the
output without resulting in excessive power dissipation.
Although accurate and far easier to lay out than high-side
resistor sensing, a pair of precision sense resistors adds
cost to the converter.
Frequency Setting and Synchronization
The internal oscillator of the SC2443 runs at twice the
phase frequency. The free-running frequency of the
oscillator can be programmed with an external resistor
from the ROSC pin to ground. The step-down controllers
are capable of operating up to ꢀ MHz. It is necessary to
consider the operating duty-ratio before deciding the
switchingfrequency. SeeApplicationsInformationsection
for more details.
With proper RC filter, Inductor DCR sensing can also be
used for SC2443 resulting in low cost and without extra
power dissipation.
Whensynchronizedexternally,theappliedclockfrequency
should be twice the desired phase frequency. The
synchronizing clock frequency should also be between 2
- 2.6 times the set free-running channel frequency.
Error Amplifiers
In closed loop operation, the error amplifier output ranges
from ꢀ.ꢀV to 3.5V. The upper output operating range
of either error amplifier is reserved for positive current-
sense voltage (CS+ - CS-) and corresponds to positive
(sourcing) output current. If the amplifier swings to its
lower operating range, the amplifier will still modulate the
high-side gate drive duty-ratio. However the peak current-
sense voltage (hence the peak inductor current) will be
limited to a negative value. The error amplifier output
is about 2.2V when the peak sense-voltage is zero. The
built-in offset in the current sense amplifier together with
synchronous continuous-conduction mode of operation
allows the SC2443 to regulate the output irrespective of
the direction of the load current.
Control Loop
The SC2443 uses peak current-mode control for fast
transient response, ease of compensation and current
sharing in single output operation. The low-side MOSFET
of each channel is turned off at the falling-edge of the
phase timing clock. After a brief non-overlapping time
interval of 90ns, the high-side MOSFET is turned on.
The phase inductor current ramps up. When the sensed
inductor current reaches the threshold determined by
the error amplifier output and compensation ramp, the
high-side MOSFET is turned off. After a non-overlapping
conduction time of 90ns, the low-side MOSFET is turned
on.
ꢀꢀ
SC2443
Applications Information (continued)
current reaching its current limit and the instant the
converter shuts down. This is due to cycle skipping(a
consequence of inductor current sense) reduces the
actual operating frequency.
The non-inverting input of the first feedback amplifier is
tied to the internal 0.5V voltage reference. Both the non-
inverting and the inverting inputs of the second error
amplifier are brought out as device pins so that the output
of the second converter can be made to track the output
of the first channel. For example in DDR applications,
Channel ꢀ can be used to generate VDDQ (2.5V) from
the input (5V or ꢀ2V) and channel 2 is used to produce a
tracking VTT (ꢀ.25V) with VDDQ being its input.
The SS/EN pin can also be used as the enable input for that
channel. Both the high-side and the low-side MOSFETs
will be turned off if the SS/EN pin is pulled below 0.7V.
Operating Frequency (fs)
The switching frequency in the SC2443 is user-
programmable. The advantages of using constant
frequency operation are simple passive component
selection and ease of feedback compensation. Before
setting the operating frequency, the following trade-offs
should be considered.
ꢀ) Passive component size
2) Circuitry efficiency
3) EMI condition
Current-Limit
The maximum current sense voltage of +75mV is the
cycle-by-cycle peak current limit when the load is
drawing current from the converter. There is no cycle-by-
cycle current limiting when the inductor current flows in
the negative direction. However once the valley of the
current sense voltage exceeds -ꢀꢀ0mV, the corresponding
channel will undergo shutdown and restart (hiccup).
4) Minimum switch on time and
5) Maximum duty ratio
Soft-Start and Overload Protection
The undervoltage lockout circuit discharges the SS/EN
capacitors. AfterVCC rises above 4.5V, the SS/EN capacitors
are slowly charged by internal 2mA current source. With
internalPNPtransistors,theSS/ENvoltagesclamptheerror
amplifier outputs. When the error amplifier output rises
to 2.2V, the high-side MOSFET starts to switch. As the SS/
EN capacitor continues to be charged, the COMP voltage
follows. The converter gradually delivers increasing power
to the output. The inductor current follows the COMP
voltage envelope until the output goes into regulation.
The SS/EN clamp on COMP is then released.
For a given output power, the sizes of the passive
components are inversely proportional to the switching
frequency, whereas MOSFET and Diodes switching losses
are proportional to the operating frequency. Other
issues such as heat dissipation, packaging and the cost
issues are also to be considered. The frequency bands
for signal transmission should be avoided because of EM
interference.
Minimum Switch On Time Consideration
In the SC2443 the falling edge of the clock turns on the
top MOSFET. The inductor current and the sensed voltage
ramp up. After the sensed voltage crosses a threshold
determined by the error amplifier output, the top MOSFET
is turned off. The propagation delay time from the turn-
on of the controlling FET to its turn-off is the minimum
switch on time. The SC2443 has a minimum on time of
about ꢀ50ns at room temperature. This is the shortest on
interval of the controlling FET. The controller either does
not turn on the top MOSFET at all or turns it on for at least
ꢀ50ns.
After the SS/EN capacitor is charged above 3.2V (high
enough for the error amplifier to provide full load current),
the overload detection circuit is activated. If the output
voltage falls below 70% of its set value or the valley
current-sense voltage exceeds -ꢀꢀ0mV, an overload latch
will be set and both the top and the bottom MOSFETs will
be turned off. The SS/EN capacitor is slowly discharged
with an internal ꢀ.4mA current sink. The overload latch
is reset when the SS/EN capacitor is discharged below
0.5V. The SS/EN capacitor is then recharged with the 2uA
current source and the converter undergoes soft-start.
If overload persists, the SC2443 will undergo repetitive
shutdown and restart.
For a synchronous step-down converter, the operating
duty cycle is

such that the required pulse width is less than ꢀ50ns,
then the converter will start skipping cycles. Due to

very high switching frequency and very short duty cycle

PC Board Layout Issues
and hence the required duty cycle is higher, the switching
frequency can be increased to reduce the sizes of passive
components.
There will not be enough modulation headroom if the
on time is simply made equal to the minimum on time
of the SC2443. For ease of control, we recommend the
required pulse width to be at least ꢀ.5 times the minimum
on time.
Circuit board layout is very important for the proper
operation of high frequency switching power converters.
A power ground plane is required to reduce ground
bounces. The following are suggested for proper layout:
Power Stage
ꢀ) Separate the power ground from the signal ground. In
the SC2443, the power ground PGND should be tied to
the source terminal of lower MOSFETs. The signal ground
AGND should be tied to the negative terminal of the
output capacitor.
Setting the Switching Frequency
The switching frequency is set with an external resistor
connected from Pin 24 to ground. The set frequency is
inversely proportional to the resistor value (Figure 2).
2) Minimize the size of high pulse current loop. Keep the
top MOSFET, bottom MOSFET and the input capacitors
within a small area with short and wide traces. In addition
to the aluminum energy storage capacitors, add multi-
layer ceramic (MLC) capacitors from the input to the
power ground to improve high frequency bypass.

3) Reduce high frequency voltage ringing. Widen and
shorten the drain and source traces of the MOSFET to
reduce stray inductances. Add a small RC snubber if
necessary to reduce the high frequency ringing at the
phase node. Sometimes slowing down the gate drive
signal also helps in reducing the high frequency ringing
at the phase node.

4) Shorten the gate driver path. Integrity of the gate drive
(voltage level, leading and falling edges) is important for
circuit operation and efficiency. Short and wide gate drive
traces reduce trace inductances. Bond wire inductance is
about 2~3nH. If the length of the PCB trace from the gate
driver to the MOSFET gate is ꢀ inch, the trace inductance
will be about 25nH. If the gate drive current is 2A with
ꢀ0ns rise and falling times, the voltage drops across
the bond wire and the PCB trace will be 0.6V and 5V
respectively. This may slow down the switching transient
of the MOSFET. These inductances may also ring with the
gate capacitance.
Rosc (k Ohm)
Setting the Output Voltage
The non-inverting input of the channel-one error amplifier
is internally tied the 0.5V voltage reference output (Pin 5).
The non-inverting input of the channel-two error amplifier
is brought out as a device pin (Pin 6) to which the user can
connect Pin 5 or an external voltage reference. A simple
voltage divider (Roꢀ at top and Ro2 at bottom) sets the
converter output voltage. The voltage feedback gain
h=0.5/Vo is related to the divider resistors value as

7) Solder the bias decoupling capacitor right across the
AVCC and analog ground AGND.
8) Place the inductor DCR sense components away from
the power circuit and close to the corresponding CS+
and CS- pins. Use X7R type ceramic capacitor for the DCR
sense capacitor because of their temperature stability.
9) Use an isolated local ground plane underneath the
controller and tie it to the negative side of output capacitor
bank.
ꢀ0) Comp pin is sensitive to noise. Place compensation
network components away from noise signal (i.e. gate
driver signals, phase node) and close to corresponding
Comp pin .
