7 Detailed Description  
7.1 Overview  
The LM43603 regulator is an easy to use synchronous step-down DC-DC converter that operates from 3.5 V to  
36 V supply voltage. It is capable of delivering up to 3 A DC load current with exceptional efficiency and thermal  
performance in a very small solution size. An extended family is available in 0.5 A, 1 A, and 2 A load options in  
pin to pin compatible packages.  
The LM43603 employs fixed frequency peak current mode control with Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM)  
and Pulse Frequency Modulation (PFM) mode at light load to achieve high efficiency across the load range. The  
device is internally compensated, which reduces design time, and requires fewer external components. The  
switching frequency is programmable from 200 kHz to 2.2 MHz by an external resistor RT. It is default at 500 kHz  
without RT resistor. The LM43603 is also capable of synchronization to an external clock within the 200 kHz to  
2.2 MHz frequency range. The wide switching frequency range allows the device to be optimized to fit small  
board space at higher frequency, or high efficient power conversion at lower frequency.  
Optional features are included for more comprehensive system requirements, including power-good (PGOOD)  
flag, precision enable, synchronization to external clock, extendable soft-start time, and output voltage tracking.  
These features provide a flexible and easy to use platform for a wide range of applications. Protection features  
include over temperature shutdown, VCC under-voltage lockout (UVLO), cycle-by-cycle current limit, and short-  
circuit protection with hiccup mode.  
The family requires few external components and the pin arrangement was designed for simple, optimum PCB  
layout. The LM43603 device is available in the HTSSOP / PWP 16 pin leaded package.

7.3 Feature Description  
7.3.1 Fixed Frequency Peak Current Mode Controlled Step-Down Regulator  
The following operating description of the LM43603 refer to the Functional Block Diagram and to the waveforms  
in Figure 35. The LM43603 is a step-down Buck regulator with both high-side (HS) switch and low-side (LS)  
switch (synchronous rectifier) integrated. The LM43603 supplies a regulated output voltage by turning on the HS  
and LS NMOS switches with controlled ON time. During the HS switch ON time, the SW pin voltage VSW swings  
up to approximately VIN, and the inductor current iL increases with a linear slope (VIN - VOUT) / L. When the HS  
switch is turned off by the control logic, the LS switch is turned on after a anti-shoot-through dead time. Inductor  
current discharges through the LS switch with a slope of -VOUT / L. The control parameter of Buck converters are  
defined as Duty Cycle D = tON / TSW, where tON is the HS switch ON time and TSW is the switching period. The  
regulator control loop maintains a constant output voltage by adjusting the duty cycle D. In an ideal Buck  
converter, where losses are ignored, D is proportional to the output voltage and inversely proportional to the input  
voltage: D = VOUT / VIN.

Figure 35. SW Node and Inductor Current Waveforms in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM)  
The LM43603 synchronous Buck converter employs peak current mode control topology. A voltage feedback  
loop is used to get accurate DC voltage regulation by adjusting the peak current command based on voltage  
offset. The peak inductor current is sensed from the HS switch and compared to the peak current to control the  
ON time of the HS switch. The voltage feedback loop is internally compensated, which allows for fewer external  
components, makes it easy to design, and provides stable operation with almost any combination of output  
capacitors. The regulator operates with fixed switching frequency in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) and  
Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM). At very light load, the LM43603 will operate in PFM to maintain high  
efficiency and the switching frequency will decrease with reduced load current.  
7.3.2 Light Load Operation  
DCM operation is employed in the LM43603 when the inductor current valley reaches zero. The LM43603 will be  
in DCM when load current is less than half of the peak-to-peak inductor current ripple in CCM. In DCM, the LS  
switch is turned off when the inductor current reaches zero. Switching loss is reduced by turning off the LS FET  
at zero current and the conduction loss is lowered by not allowing negative current conduction. Power conversion  
efficiency is higher in DCM than CCM under the same conditions.  
In DCM, the HS switch ON time will reduce with lower load current. When either the minimum HS switch ON time  
(tON-MIN) or the minimum peak inductor current (IPEAK-MIN) is reached, the switching frequency will decrease to  
maintain regulation. At this point, the LM43603 operates in PFM. In PFM, switching frequency is decreased by  
the control loop when load current reduces to maintain output voltage regulation. Switching loss is further  
reduced in PFM operation due to less frequent switching actions.

Feature Description (continued)  
In PFM operation, a small positive DC offset is required at the output voltage to activate the PFM detector. The  
lower the frequency in PFM, the more DC offset is needed at VOUT. Please refer to the Typical Characteristics for  
typical DC offset at very light load. If the DC offset on VOUT is not acceptable for a given application, a static load  
at output is recommended to reduce or eliminate the offset. Lowering values of the feedback divider RFBT and  
RFBB can also serve as a static load. In conditions with low VIN and/or high frequency, the LM43603 may not  
enter PFM mode if the output voltage cannot be charged up to provide the trigger to activate the PFM detector.  
Once the LM43603 is operating in PFM mode at higher VIN, it will remain in PFM operation when VIN is reduced.  
Please refer to Figure 45 for a sample of PFM operation  
7.3.3 Adjustable Output Voltage  
The voltage regulation loop in the LM43603 regulates output voltage by maintaining the voltage on FB pin ( VFB  
)
to be the same as the internal REF voltage (VREF). A resistor divider pair is needed to program the ratio from  
output voltage VOUT to VFB. The resistor divider is connected from the VOUT of the LM43603 to ground with the  
mid-point connecting to the FB pin.

The voltage reference system produces a precise voltage reference over temperature. The internal REF voltage  
is 1.011 V typically. To program the output voltage of the LM43603 to be a certain value VOUT, RFBB can be  
calculated with a selected RFBT by  
VFB  
RFBB

RFBT  
VOUT - VFB  
(1)  
The choice of the RFBT depends on the application. RFBT in the range from 10 kΩ to 100 kis recommended for  
most applications. A lower RFBT value can be used if static loading is desired to reduce VOUT offset in PFM  
operation. Lower RFBT will reduce efficiency at very light load. Less static current goes through a larger RFBT and  
might be more desirable when light load efficiency is critical. But RFBT larger than 1 MΩ is not recommended  
because it makes the feedback path more susceptible to noise. Larger RFBT value requires more carefully  
designed feedback path on the PCB. The tolerance and temperature variation of the resistor dividers affect the  
output voltage regulation. It is recommended to use divider resistors with 1% tolerance or better and temperature  
coefficient of 100 ppm or lower.  
If the resistor divider is not connected properly, output voltage cannot be regulated since the feedback loop is  
broken. If the FB pin is shorted to ground, the output voltage will be driven close to VIN, since the regulator sees  
very low voltage on the FB pin and tries to regulator it up. The load connected to the output could be damaged  
under such a condition. Do not short FB pin to ground when the LM43603 is enabled. It is important to route the  
feedback trace away from the noisy area of the PCB. For more layout recommendations, please refer to the  
Layout section.  
7.3.4 Enable (EN)  
Voltage on the EN pin (VEN) controls the ON or OFF operation of the LM43603. Applying a voltage less than 0.4  
V to the EN input shuts down the operation of the LM43603. In shutdown mode the quiescent current drops to  
typically 1.2 µA at VIN = 12 V.  
The internal LDO output voltage VCC is turned on when VEN is higher than 1.2 V. The LM43603 switching action  
and output regulation are enabled when VEN is greater than 2.1 V (typical). The LM43603 supplies regulated  
output voltage when enabled and output current up to 3 A.  
The EN pin is an input and cannot be open circuit or floating. The simplest way to enable the operation of the  
LM43603 is to connect the EN pin to VIN pins directly. This allows self-start-up of the LM43603 when VIN is  
within the operation range.

Feature Description (continued)  
Many applications will benefit from the employment of an enable divider RENT and RENB in Figure 37 to establish  
a precision system UVLO level for the stage. System UVLO can be used for supplies operating from utility power  
as well as battery power. It can be used for sequencing, ensuring reliable operation, or supply protection, such  
as a battery discharge level. An external logic signal can also be used to drive EN input for system sequencing  
and protection.

7.3.5 VCC, UVLO and BIAS  
The LM43603 integrates an internal LDO to generate VCC for control circuitry and MOSFET drivers. The nominal  
voltage for VCC is 3.28 V. The VCC pin is the output of the LDO must be properly bypassed. A high quality  
ceramic capacitor with 2.2 µF to 10 µF capacitance and 6.3 V or higher rated voltage should be placed as close  
as possible to VCC and grounded to the exposed PAD and ground pins. The VCC output pin should not be  
loaded, left floating, or shorted to ground during operation. Shorting VCC to ground during operation may cause  
damage to the LM43603.  
Under voltage lockout (UVLO) prevents the LM43603 from operating until the VCC voltage exceeds 3.1 V  
(typical). The VCC UVLO threshold has 520 mV of hysteresis (typically) to prevent undesired shuting down due to  
temperary VIN droops.  
The internal LDO has two inputs: primary from VIN and secondary from BIAS input. The BIAS input powers the  
LDO when VBIAS is higher than the change-over threshold. Power loss of an LDO is calculated by ILDO * (VIN-LDO  
-
VOUT-LDO). The higher the difference between the input and output voltages of the LDO, the more power loss  
occur to supply the same output current. The BIAS input is designed to reduce the difference of the input and  
output voltages of the LDO to reduce power loss and improve LM43603 efficiency, especially at light load. It is  
recommended to tie the BIAS pin to VOUT when VOUT 3.3 V. The BIAS pin should be grounded in applications  
with VOUT less than 3.3 V. BIAS input can also come from an external voltage source, if available, to reduce  
power loss. When used, a 1 µF to 10 µF high quality ceramic capacitor is recommended to bypass the BIAS pin  
to ground.  
7.3.6 Soft-Start and Voltage Tracking (SS/TRK)  
The LM43603 has a flexible and easy to use start up rate control pin: SS/TRK. Soft-start feature is to prevent  
inrush current impacting the LM43603 and its supply when power is first applied. Soft-start is achieved by slowly  
ramping up the target regulation voltage when the device is first enabled or powered up.  
The simplest way to use the part is to leave the SS/TRK pin open circuit or floating. The LM43603 will employ  
the internal soft-start control ramp and start up to the regulated output voltage in 4.1 ms typically.  
In applications with a large amount of output capacitors, or higher VOUT, or other special requirements the soft-  
start time can be extended by connecting an external capacitor CSS from SS/TRK pin to AGND. Extended soft-  
start time further reduces the supply current needed to charge up output capacitors and supply any output  
loading. An internal current source (ISSC = 2.0 µA) charges CSS and generates a ramp from 0 V to VFB to control  
the ramp-up rate of the output voltage. For a desired soft start time tSS, the capacitance for CSS can be found by  
CSS = ISSC ì tSS  
(2)  
The LM43603 is capable of start up into prebiased output conditions. When the inductor current reaches zero,  
the LS switch will be turned off to avoid negative current conduction. This operation mode is also called diode  
emulation mode. It is built-in by the DCM operation in light loads. With a prebiased output voltage, the LM43603  
will wait until the soft-start ramp allows regulation above the prebiased voltage and then follow the soft-start ramp  
to the regulation level.

Feature Description (continued)  
When an external voltage ramp is applied to the SS/TRK pin, the LM43603 FB voltage follows the ramp if the  
ramp magnitude is lower than the internal soft-start ramp. A resistor divider pair can be used on the external  
control ramp to the SS/TRK pin to program the tracking rate of the output voltage. The final voltage seen by the  
SS/TRK pin should not fall below 1.2 V to avoid abnormal operation.

VOUT tracked to external voltage ramps has options of ramping up slower or faster than the internal voltage ramp.  
VFB always follows the lower potential of the internal voltage ramp and the voltage on the SS/TRK pin. Figure 39  
shows the case when VOUT ramps slower than the internal ramp, while Figure 40 shows when VOUT ramps faster  
than the internal ramp. Faster start up time may result in inductor current tripping current protection during start-  
up. Use with special care.

7.3.7 Switching Frequency (RT) and Synchronization (SYNC)  
The switching frequency of the LM43603 can be programmed by the impedance RT from the RT pin to ground.  
The frequency is inversely proportional to the RT resistance. The RT pin can be left floating and the LM43603 will  
operate at 500 kHz default switching frequency. The RT pin is not designed to be shorted to ground. For a  
desired frequency, typical RT resistance can be found by Equation 3. Table 1 gives typical RT values for a given  
FS.  
RT(k) = 40200 / Freq (kHz) - 0.6

The LM43603 switching action can also be synchronized to an external clock from 200 kHz to 2.2 MHz. Connect  
an external clock to the SYNC pin, with proper high speed termination, to avoid ringing. The SYNC pin should be  
grounded if not used.  
SYNC  
EXT CLOCK  
RTERM  
Figure 42. Frequency Synchronization  
The recommendations for the external clock include : high level no lower than 2 V, low level no higher than 0.4  
V, duty cycle between 10% and 90% and both positive and negative pulse width no shorter than 80 ns. When the  
external clock fails at logic high or low, the LM43603 will switch at the frequency programmed by the RT resistor  
after a time-out period. It is recommended to connect a resistor RT to the RT pin such that the internal oscillator  
frequency is the same as the target clock frequency when the LM43603 is synchronized to an external clock.  
This allows the regulator to continue operating at approximately the same switching frequency if the external  
clock fails.  
The choice of switching frequency is usually a compromise between conversion efficiency and the size of the  
circuit. Lower switching frequency implies reduced switching losses (including gate charge losses, switch  
transition losses, etc.) and usually results in higher overall efficiency. However, higher switching frequency allows  
use of smaller LC output filters and hence a more compact design. Lower inductance also helps transient  
response (higher large signal slew rate of inductor current), and reduces the DCR loss. The optimal switching  
frequency is usually a trade-off in a given application and thus needs to be determined on a case-by-case basis.  
It is related to the input voltage, output voltage, most frequent load current level(s), external component choices,  
and circuit size requirement. The choice of switching frequency may also be limited if an operating condition  
triggers TON-MIN or TOFF-MIN  
.

ZHCSCD7D APRIL 2014REVISED AUGUST 2017  
Feature Description (continued)  
7.3.8 Minimum ON-time, Minimum OFF-time and Frequency Foldback at Drop-Out Conditions  
Minimum ON-time, TON-MIN, is the smallest duration of time that the HS switch can be on. TON-MIN is typically 125  
ns in the LM43603. Minimum OFF-time, TOFF-MIN, is the smallest duration that the HS switch can be off. TOFF-MIN  
is typically 200 ns in the LM43603.  
In CCM operation, TON-MIN and TOFF-MIN limits the voltage conversion range given a selected switching frequency.  
The minimum duty cycle allowed is  
DMIN = TON-MIN × FS  
(4)  
And the maximum duty cycle allowed is  
DMAX = 1 - TOFF-MIN × FS  
(5)  
Given fixed TON-MIN and TOFF-MIN, the higher the switching frequency the narrower the range of the allowed duty  
cycle. In the LM43603, frequency foldback scheme is employed to extend the maximum duty cycle when TOFF-MIN  
is reached. The switching frequency will decrease once longer duty cycle is needed under low VIN conditions.  
The switching frequency can be decreased to approximately 1/10 of the programmed frequency by RT or the  
synchronization clock. Such wide range of frequency foldback allows the LM43603 output voltage stay in  
regulation with a much lower supply voltage VIN. This leads to a lower effective drop-out voltage. Please refer to  
Typical Characteristics for more details.  
Given an output voltage, the choice of the switching frequency affects the allowed input voltage range, solution  
size and efficiency. The maximum operatable supply voltage can be found by  
VIN-MAX = VOUT / (FS * TON-MIN  
)
(6)  
At lower supply voltage, the switching frequency will decrease once TOFF-MIN is tripped. The minimum VIN without  
frequency foldback can be approximated by  
VIN-MIN = VOUT / (1 - FS * TOFF-MIN  
)
(7)  
Taking considerations of power losses in the system with heavy load operation, VIN-MIN is higher than the result  
calculated in Equation 7 . With frequency foldback, VIN-MIN is lowered by decreased FS.

7.3.9 Internal Compensation and CFF  
The LM43603 is internally compensated with RC = 400 kΩ and CC = 50 pF as shown in Functional Block  
Diagram. The internal compensation is designed such that the loop response is stable over the entire operating  
frequency and output voltage range. Depending on the output voltage, the compensation loop phase margin can  
be low with all ceramic capacitors. An external feed-forward cap CFF is recommended to be placed in parallel  
with the top resistor divider RFBT for optimum transient performance.

Feature Description (continued)

CFF  
RFBT

Figure 44. Feed-forward Capacitor for Loop Compensation  
The feed-forward capacitor CFF in parallel with RFBT places an additional zero before the cross over frequency of  
the control loop to boost phase margin. The zero frequency can be found by  
fZ-CFF = 1 / ( 2π × RFBT × CFF ).  
(8)  
An additional pole is also introduced with CFF at the frequency of  
fP-CFF = 1 / ( 2π × CFF × ( RFBT // RFBB )).  
(9)  
The CFF should be selected such that the bandwidth of the control loop without the CFF is centered between fZ-CFF  
and fP-CFF. The zero fZ-CFF adds phase boost at the crossover frequency and improves transient response. The  
pole fP-CFF helps maintaining proper gain margin at frequency beyond the crossover.  
Designs with different combinations of output capacitors need different CFF. Different types of capacitors have  
different Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR). Ceramic capacitors have the smallest ESR and need the most  
CFF. Electrolytic capacitors have much larger ESR and the ESR zero frequency  
fZ-ESR = 1 / ( 2π × ESR × COUT  
)
(10)  
would be low enough to boost the phase up around the crossover frequency. Designs using mostly electrolytic  
capacitors at the output may not need any CFF.  
The CFF creates a time constant with RFBT that couples in the attenuated output voltage ripple to the FB node. If  
the CFF value is too large, it can couple too much ripple to the FB and affect VOUT regulation. It could also couple  
too much transient voltage deviation and falsely trip PGOOD thresholds. Therefore, CFF should be calculated  
based on output capacitors used in the system. At cold temperatures, the value of CFF might change based on  
the tolerance of the chosen component. This may reduce its impedance and ease noise coupling on the FB  
node. To avoid this, more capacitance can be added to the output or the value of CFF can be reduced. Please  
refer to the Detailed Design Procedure for the calculation of CFF.  
7.3.10 Bootstrap Voltage (BOOT)  
The driver of the HS switch requires a bias voltage higher than VIN when the HS switch is ON. The capacitor  
connected between CBOOT and SW pins works as a charge pump to boost voltage on the CBOOT pin to (VSW  
+
VCC). The boot diode is integrated on the LM43603 die to minimize the Bill-Of-Material (BOM). A synchronous  
switch is also integrated in parallel with the boot diode to reduce voltage drop on CBOOT. A high quality ceramic  
0.47 µF 6.3 V or higher capacitor is recommended for CBOOT  
.
7.3.11 Power Good (PGOOD)  
The LM43603 has a built in power-good flag shown on PGOOD pin to indicate whether the output voltage is  
within its regulation level. The PGOOD signal can be used for start-up sequencing of multiple rails or fault  
protection. The PGOOD pin is an open-drain output that requires a pull-up resistor to an appropriate DC voltage.  
Voltage seen by the PGOOD pin should never exceed 12 V. A resistor divider pair can be used to divide the  
voltage down from a higher potential. A typical range of pull-up resistor value is 10 kto 100 k.  
When the FB voltage is within the power-good band, +4% above and -7% below the internal reference VREF  
typically, the PGOOD switch will be turned off and the PGOOD voltage will be pulled up to the voltage level  
defined by the pull up resistor or divider. When the FB voltage is outside of the tolerance band, +10% above or  
-13% below VREF typically, the PGOOD switch will be turned on and the PGOOD pin voltage will be pulled low to  
indicate power bad. Both rising and falling edges of the power-good flag have a built-in 220 µs (typical) deglitch  
delay.

ZHCSCD7D APRIL 2014REVISED AUGUST 2017  
Feature Description (continued)  
7.3.12 Over Current and Short Circuit Protection  
The LM43603 is protected from over-current conditions by cycle-by-cycle current limiting on both the peak and  
valley of the inductor current. Hiccup mode will be activated if a fault condition persists to prevent over heating.  
High-side MOSFET over-current protection is implemented by the nature of the Peak Current Mode control. The  
HS switch current is sensed when the HS is turned on after a set blanking time. The HS switch current is  
compared to the output of the Error Amplifier (EA) minus slope compensation every switching cycle. Please refer  
to Functional Block Diagram for more details. The peak current of the HS switch is limited by the maximum EA  
output voltage minus the slope compensation at every switching cycle. The slope compensation magnitude at the  
peak current is proportional to the duty cycle.  
When the LS switch is turned on, the current going through it is also sensed and monitored. The LS switch will  
not be turned OFF at the end of a switching cycle if its current is above the LS current limit ILS-LIMIT. The LS  
switch will be kept ON so that inductor current keeps ramping down, until the inductor current ramps below the  
LS current limit. Then the LS switch will be turned OFF and the HS switch will be turned on after a dead time. If  
the current of the LS switch is higher than the LS current limit for 32 consecutive cycles and the power-good flag  
is low, hiccup current protection mode will be activated. In hiccup mode, the regulator will be shutdown and kept  
off for 5.5 ms typically before the LM43603 tries to start again. If over-current or short-circuit fault condition still  
exist, hiccup will repeat until the fault condition is removed. Hiccup mode reduces power dissipation under severe  
over-current conditions, prevents over heating and potential damage to the device.  
Hiccup is only activated when power-good flag is low. Under non-severe over-current conditions when VOUT has  
not fallen outside of the PGOOD tolerance band, the LM43603 will reduce the switching frequency and keep the  
inductor current valley clamped at the LS current limit level. This operation mode allows slight over current  
operation during load transients without tripping hiccup. If the power-good flag becomes low, hiccup operation  
will start after LS current limit is tripped 32 consecutive cycles.  
7.3.13 Thermal Shutdown  
Thermal shutdown is a built-in self protection to limit junction temperature and prevent damage due to over  
heating. Thermal shutdown turns off the device when the junction temperature exceeds 160°C typically to  
prevent further power dissipation and temperature rise. Junction temperature will reduce after thermal shutdown.  
The LM43603 will attempt to restart when the junction temperature drops to 150°C.  
7.4 Device Functional Modes  
7.4.1 Shutdown Mode  
The EN pin provides electrical ON and OFF control for the LM43603. When VEN is below 0.4 V, the device is in  
shutdown mode. Both the internal LDO and the switching regulator are off. In shutdown mode the quiescent  
current drops to 1.2 µA typically with VIN = 12 V. The LM43603 also employs under voltage lock out protection. If  
VCC voltage is below the UVLO level, the output of the regulator will be turned off.  
7.4.2 Stand-by Mode  
The internal LDO has a lower enable threshold than the regulator. When VEN is above 1.2 V and below the  
precision enable falling threshold (1.8 V typically), the internal LDO regulates the VCC voltage at 3.2 V. The  
precision enable circuitry is turned on once VCC is above the UVLO threshold. The switching action and voltage  
regulation are not enabled unless VEN rises above the precision enable threshold (2.1 V typically).  
7.4.3 Active Mode  
The LM43603 is in Active Mode when VEN is above the precision enable threshold and VCC is above its UVLO  
level. The simplest way to enable the LM43603 is to connect the EN pin to VIN. This allows self start-up of the  
LM43603 when the input voltage is in the operation range: 3.5 V to 36 V. Please refer to Enable (EN) and VCC,  
UVLO and BIAS for details on setting these operating levels.  
In Active Mode, depending on the load current, the LM43603 will be in one of four modes:  
1. Continuous conduction mode (CCM) with fixed switching frequency when load current is above half of the  
peak-to-peak inductor current ripple;

Device Functional Modes (continued)  
2. Discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) with fixed switching frequency when load current is lower than half of  
the peak-to-peak inductor current ripple in CCM operation;  
3. Pulse Frequency Modulation (PFM) when switching frequency is decreased at very light load;  
4. Fold-back mode when switching frequency is decreased to maintain output regulation at lower supply voltage  
VIN.  
7.4.4 CCM Mode  
Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) operation is employed in the LM43603 when the load current is higher than  
half of the peak-to-peak inductor current. In CCM peration, the frequency of operation is fixed by internal  
oscillator unless the the minimum HS switch ON-time (TON_MIN) or OFF-time (TOFF_MIN) is exceeded. Output  
voltage ripple will be at a minimum in this mode and the maximum output current of 2 A can be supplied by the  
LM43603.  
7.4.5 Light Load Operation  
When the load current is lower than half of the peak-to-peak inductor current in CCM, the LM43603 will operate  
in Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM), also known as Diode Emulation Mode (DEM). In DCM operation, the  
LS FET is turned off when the inductor current drops to 0 A to improve efficiency. Both switching losses and  
conduction losses are reduced in DCM, comparing to forced PWM operation at light load.  
At even lighter current loads, Pulse Frequency Mode (PFM) is activated to maintain high efficiency operation.  
When the HS switch ON-time reduces to TON_MIN or peak inductor current reduces to its minimum IPEAK-MIN, the  
switching frequency will reduce to maintain proper regulation. Efficiency is greatly improved by reducing  
switching and gate drive losses.

7.4.6 Self-Bias Mode  
For highest efficiency of operation, it is recommended that the BIAS pin be connected directly to VOUT when VOUT  
3.3 V. In this Self-Bias Mode of operation, the difference between the input and output voltages of the internal  
LDO are reduced and therefore the total efficiency of the LM43603 is improved. These efficiency gains are more  
evident during light load operation. During this mode of operation, the LM43603 operates with a minimum  
quiescent current of 27 µA (typical). Please refer to VCC, UVLO and BIAS for more details.

8 Application and Implementation  
NOTE  
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component  
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are  
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should  
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.  
8.1 Application Information  
The LM43603 is a step down DC-to-DC regulator. It is typically used to convert a higher DC voltage to a lower  
DC voltage with a maximum output current of 3 A. The following design procedure can be used to select  
components for the LM43603. Alternately, the WEBENCH® software may be used to generate complete designs.  
When generating a design, the WEBENCH® software utilizes iterative design procedure and accesses  
comprehensive databases of components. Please go to ti.com for more details.  
This section presents a simplified discussion of the design process.  
8.2 Typical Applications  
The LM43603 only requires a few external components to convert from a wide voltage range supply to a fixed  
output voltage. Figure 46 shows a basic schematic when BIAS is connected to VOUT and this is recommended for  
VOUT 3.3 V. For VOUT < 3.3 V, BIAS should be connected to ground, as shown in Figure 47.

The external components have to fulfill the needs of the application, but also the stability criteria of the device's  
control loop. The LM43603 is optimized to work within a range of external components. The LC output filter's  
inductance and capacitance have to be considered in conjunction, creating a double pole, responsible for the  
corner frequency of the converter. Table 2 can be used to simplify the output filter component selection.

8.2.2.2 Output Voltage Set-Point  
The output voltage of the LM43603 device is externally adjustable using a resistor divider network. The divider  
network is comprised of top feedback resistor RFBT and bottom feedback resistor RFBB. The following equation is  
used to determine the output voltage of the converter:  
VFB  
RFBB  
=
RFBT  
VOUT - VFB  
(11)  
Choose the value of the RFBT to be 1 MΩ to minimize quiescent current to improve light load efficiency in this  
application. With the desired output voltage set to be 3.3 V and the VFB = 1.011 V, the RFBB value can then be  
calculated using Equation 11. The formula yields a value of 434.78 kΩ. Choose the closest available value of 432  
kΩ for the RFBB. Please refer to Adjustable Output Voltage for more details.  
8.2.2.3 Switching Frequency  
The default switching frequency of the LM43603 device is set at 500 kHz when RT pin is open circuit. The  
switching frequency is selected to be 500 kHz in this application for one less passive components. If other  
frequency is desired, use Equation 12 to calculate the required value for RT.  
RT(k) = 40200 / Freq (kHz) - 0.6  
(12)  
For 500 kHz, the calculated RT is 79.8 kΩ and standard value 80.6 kΩ can also be used to set the switching  
frequency at 500 kHz.

8.2.2.4 Input Capacitors  
The LM43603 device requires high frequency input decoupling capacitor(s) and a bulk input capacitor, depending  
on the application. The typical recommended value for the high frequency decoupling capacitor is 4.7 µF to 10  
µF. A high-quality ceramic type X5R or X7R with sufficiency voltage rating is recommended. The voltage rating  
must be greater than the maximum input voltage. To compensate the derating of ceramic capactors, a voltage  
rating of twice the maximum input voltage is recommended. Additionally, some bulk capacitance can be required,  
especially if the LM43603 circuit is not located within approximately 5 cm from the input voltage source. This  
capacitor is used to provide damping to the voltage spiking due to the lead inductance of the cable or trace. The  
value for this capacitor is not critical but must be rated to handle the maximum input voltage including ripple. For  
this design, a 10 µF, X7R dielectric capacitor rated for 100 V is used for the input decoupling capacitor. The  
equivalent series resistance (ESR) is approximately 3 mΩ, and the current-rating is 3 A. Include a capacitor with  
a value of 0.1 µF for high-frequency filtering and place it as close as possible to the device pins.  
NOTE  
DC Bias effect: High capacitance ceramic capacitors have a DC Bias effect, which will  
have a strong influence on the final effective capacitance. Therefore the right capacitor  
value has to be chosen carefully. Package size and voltage rating in combination with  
dielectric material are responsible for differences between the rated capacitor value and  
the effective capacitance.  
8.2.2.5 Inductor Selection  
The first criterion for selecting an output inductor is the inductance itself. In most buck converters, this value is  
based on the desired peak-to-peak ripple current, ΔiL, that flows in the inductor along with the DC load current.  
As with switching frequency, the selection of the inductor is a tradeoff between size and cost. Higher inductance  
gives lower ripple current and hence lower output voltage ripple with the same output capacitors. Lower  
inductance could result in smaller, less expensive component. An inductance that gives a ripple current of 20% to  
40% of the 3 A at the typical supply voltage is a good starting point. ΔiL = (1/5 to 2/5) x IOUT. The peak-to-peak  
inductor current ripple can be found by Equation 13 and the range of inductance can be found by Equation 14  
with the typical input voltage used as VIN.

DiL =

(13)  
(VIN - VOUT )ìD  
0.4ìFS ìIL-MAX  
(VIN - VOUT )ìD  
0.2ìFS ìIL-MAX  
Ç L Ç  
(14)  
D is the duty cycle of the converter where in a buck converter case it can be approximated as D = VOUT / VIN,  
assuming no loss power conversion. By calculating in terms of amperes, volts, and megahertz, the inductance  
value will come out in micro Henries. The inductor ripple current ratio is defined by:  
DiL  
IOUT  
r =  
(15)  
The second criterion is inductor saturation current rating. The inductor should be rated to handle the maximum  
load current plus the ripple current:  
IL-PEAK = ILOAD-MAX + ΔiL/ 2  
(16)  
The LM43603 has both valley current limit and peak current limit. During an instantaneous short, the peak  
inductor current can be high due to a momentary increase in duty cycle. The inductor current rating should be  
higher than the HS current limit. It is advised to select an inductor with a larger core saturation margin and  
preferably a softer roll off of the inductance value over load current.

ZHCSCD7D APRIL 2014REVISED AUGUST 2017  
In general, it is preferable to choose lower inductance in switching power supplies, because it usually  
corresponds to faster transient response, smaller DCR, and reduced size for more compact designs. But too low  
of an inductance can generate too large of an inductor current ripple such that over current protection at the full  
load could be falsely triggered. It also generates more conduction loss, since the RMS current is slightly higher  
relative that with lower current ripple at the same DC current. Larger inductor current ripple also implies larger  
output voltage ripple with the same output capacitors. With peak current mode control, it is not recommended to  
have too small of an inductor current ripple. A larger peak current ripple improves the comparator signal to noise  
ratio.  
Once the inductance is determined, the type of inductor must be selected. Ferrite designs have very low core  
losses and are preferred at high switching frequencies, so design goals can concentrate on copper loss and  
preventing saturation. Ferrite core material saturates hard, which means that inductance collapses abruptly when  
the peak design current is exceeded. The ‘hard’ saturation results in an abrupt increase in inductor ripple current  
and consequent output voltage ripple. Do not allow the core to saturate!  
For the design example, a standard 6.8 μH inductor from Wurth Elektronik, Coilcraft, or Vishay can be used for  
the 3.3 V output with plenty of current rating margin.  
8.2.2.6 Output Capacitor Selection  
The device is designed to be used with a wide variety of LC filters. It is generally desired to use as little output  
capacitance as possible to keep cost and size down. The output capacitor (s), COUT, should be chosen with  
care since it directly affects the steady state output voltage ripple, loop stability and the voltage over/undershoot  
during load current transients.  
The output voltage ripple is essentially composed of two parts. One is caused by the inductor current ripple going  
through the Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) of the output capacitors:  
ΔVOUT-ESR =ΔiL×ESR  
(17)  
The other is caused by the inductor current ripple charging and discharging the output capacitors:  
ΔVOUT-C =ΔiL/ ( 8 × FS × COUT  
)
(18)  
The two components in the voltage ripple are not in phase, so the actual peak-to-peak ripple is smaller than the  
sum of the two peaks.  
Output capacitance is usually limited by transient performance specifications if the system requires tight voltage  
regulation with presence of large current steps and fast slew rates. When a fast large load transient happens,  
output capacitors provide the required charge before the inductor current can slew to the appropriate level. The  
initial output voltage step is equal to the load current step multiplied by the ESR. VOUT continues to droop until  
the control loop response increases or decreases the inductor current to supply the load. To maintain a small  
over- or undershoot during a transient, small ESR and large capacitance are desired. But these also come with  
higher cost and size. Thus, the motivation is to seek a fast control loop response to reduce the output voltage  
deviation.  
For a given input and output requirement, the following inequality gives an approximation for an absolute  
minimum output cap required:

IOUT = Load Current  
A general guide line for COUT range is that COUT should be larger than the minimum required output capacitance  
calculated by Equation 19, and smaller than 10 times the minimum required output capacitance or 1 mF. In  
applications with VOUT less than 3.3 V, it is critical that low ESR output capacitors are selected. This will limit  
potential output voltage overshoots as the input voltage falls below the device normal operating range. To  
optimize the transient behavior a feed-forward capacitor could be added in parallel with the upper feedback  
resistor. For this design example, three 47 µF,10 V, X7R ceramic capacitors are used in parallel.  
8.2.2.7 Feed-Forward Capacitor  
The LM43603 is internally compensated and the internal R-C values are 400 kΩ and 50 pF respectively.  
Depending on the VOUT and frequency FS, if the output capacitor COUT is dominated by low ESR (ceramic types)  
capacitors, it could result in low phase margin. To improve the phase boost an external feedforward capacitor  
CFF can be added in parallel with RFBT. CFF is chosen such that phase margin is boosted at the crossover  
frequency without CFF. A simple estimation for the crossover frequency without CFF (fx) is shown in Equation 21,  
assuming COUT has very small ESR.  
5.3  
fx =  
VOUT ì COUT  
(21)  
The following equation for CFF was tested:  
1
1
CFF  
=
ì
2pfx  
RFBT ì(RFBT / /RFBB  
)
(22)  
This equation indicates that the crossover frequency is geometrically centered on the zero and pole frequencies  
caused by the CFF capacitor.  
For designs with higher ESR, CFF is not neeed when COUT has very high ESR and CFF calculated from  
Equation 22 should be reduced with medium ESR. Table 2 can be used as a quick starting point.  
For the application in this design example, a 47 pF COG capacitor is selected.  
8.2.2.8 Bootstrap Capacitors  
Every LM43603 design requires a bootstrap capacitor, CBOOT. The recommended bootstrap capacitor is 0.47 μF  
and rated at 6.3 V or higher. The bootstrap capacitor is located between the SW pin and the CBOOT pin. The  
bootstrap capacitor must be a high-quality ceramic type with X7R or X5R grade dielectric for temperature  
stability.  
8.2.2.9 VCC Capacitor  
The VCC pin is the output of an internal LDO for LM43603. The input for this LDO comes from either VIN or  
BIAS (please refer to Functional Block Diagram for LM43603). To insure stability of the part, place a minimum of  
2.2 µF, 10 V capacitor for this pin to ground.  
8.2.2.10 BIAS Capacitors  
For an output voltage of 3.3 V and greater, the BIAS pin can be connected to the output in order to increase light  
load efficiency. This pin is an input for the VCC LDO. When BIAS is not connected, the input for the VCC LDO  
will be internally connected into VIN. Since this is an LDO, the voltage differences between the input and output  
will affect the efficiency of the LDO. If necessary, a capacitor with a value of 1 μF can be added close to the  
BIAS pin as an input capacitor for the LDO.  
8.2.2.11 Soft-Start Capacitors  
The user can left the SS/TRK pin floating and the LM43603 will implement a soft start time of 4.1 ms typically. In  
order to use an external soft start capacitor, the capacitor should be sized such that the soft start time will be  
longer than 4.1 ms. Use the following equation in order to calculate the soft start capacitor value:  
CSS = ISSC ì tSS

ISS = Soft start charging current (µA)  
tSS = Desired soft start time (s)  
For the desired soft start time of 10 ms and soft start charging current of 2.0 µA, the equation above yield a soft  
start capacitor value of 0.020 µF.  
8.2.2.12 Under Voltage Lockout Set-Point  
The undervoltage lockout (UVLO) is adjusted using the external voltage divider network of RENT and RENB. RENT  
is connected between the VIN pin and the EN pin of the LM43603. RENB is connected between the EN pin and  
the GND pin. The UVLO has two thresholds, one for power up when the input voltage is rising and one for power  
down or brown outs when the input voltage is falling. The following equation can be used to determine the VIN  
UVLO level.  
VIN-UVLO-RISING = VENH × (RENB + RENT) / RENB  
(24)  
The EN rising threshold (VENH) for LM43603 is set to be 2.2 V (typical). Choose the value of RENB to be 1 Mto  
minimize input current from the supply. If the desired VIN UVLO level is at 5.0 V, then the value of RENT can be  
calculated using the equation below:  
RENT = (VIN-UVLO-RISING / VENH -1) × RENB  
(25)  
The above equation yields a value of 1.27 MΩ. The resulting falling UVLO threshold, equals 4.3 V, can be  
calculated by below equation, where EN falling threshold (VENL) is 1.9 V (typical).  
VIN-UVLO-FALLING = VENL × (RENB + RENT) / RENB  
(26)  
8.2.2.13 PGOOD  
A typical pull-up resistor value is 10 kto 100 kfrom PGOOD pin to a voltage no higher than 12 V. If it is  
desired to pull up PGOOD pin to a voltage higher than 12 V, a resistor can be added from PGOOD pin to ground  
to divide the voltage seen by the PGOOD pin to a value no higher than 12 V.

ZHCSCD7D APRIL 2014REVISED AUGUST 2017

9 Power Supply Recommendations  
The LM43603 is designed to operate from an input voltage supply range between 3.5 V and 36 V. This input  
supply should be well regulated and able to withstand maximum input current and maintain a stable voltage. The  
resistance of the input supply rail should be low enough that an input current transient does not cause a high  
enough drop at the LM43603 supply voltage that can cause a false UVLO fault triggering and system reset.  
If the input supply is located more than a few inches from the LM43603 additional bulk capacitance may be  
required in addition to the ceramic bypass capacitors. The amount of bulk capacitance is not critical, but a 47 µF  
or 100 µF electrolytic capacitor is a typical choice.  
10 Layout  
The performance of any switching converter depends as much upon the layout of the PCB as the component  
selection. The following guidelines will help users design a PCB with the best power conversion performance,  
thermal performance, and minimized generation of unwanted EMI.  
10.1 Layout Guidelines  
1. Place ceramic high frequency bypass CIN as close as possible to the LM43603 VIN and PGND pins.  
Grounding for both the input and output capacitors should consist of localized top side planes that connect to  
the PGND pins and PAD.  
2. Place bypass capacitors for VCC and BIAS close to the pins and ground the bypass capacitors to device  
ground.  
3. Minimize trace length to the FB pin net. Both feedback resistors, RFBT and RFBB should be located close to  
the FB pin. Place Cff directly in parallel with RFBT. If VOUT accuracy at the load is important, make sure VOUT  
sense is made at the load. Route VOUT sense path away from noisy nodes and preferably through a layer on  
the other side of a shieldig layer.  
4. Use ground plane in one of the middle layers as noise shielding and heat dissipation path.  
5. Have a single point ground connection to the plane. The ground connections for the feedback, soft-start, and  
enable components should be routed to the ground plane. This prevents any switched or load currents from  
flowing in the analog ground traces. If not properly handled, poor grounding can result in degraded load  
regulation or erratic output voltage ripple behavior.  
6. Make VIN, VOUT and ground bus connections as wide as possible. This reduces any voltage drops on the  
input or output paths of the converter and maximizes efficiency.  
7. Provide adequate device heat-sinking. Use an array of heat-sinking vias to connect the exposed pad to the  
ground plane on the bottom PCB layer. If the PCB has multiple copper layers, these thermal vias can also be  
connected to inner layer heat-spreading ground planes. Ensure enough copper area is used for heat-sinking  
to keep the junction temperature below 125°C.  
10.1.1 Compact Layout for EMI Reduction  
Radiated EMI is generated by the high di/dt components in pulsing currents in switching converters. The larger  
area covered by the path of a pulsing current, the more EMI is generated. The key to minimize radiated EMI is to  
identify pulsing current path and minimize the area of the path. In Buck converters,the pulsing current path is  
from the VIN side of the input capacitors to HS switch, to the LS switch, and then return to the ground of the input  
capacitors, as shown in Figure 97.

ZHCSCD7D APRIL 2014REVISED AUGUST 2017  
Layout Guidelines (continued)  
High frequency ceramic bypass capacitors at the input side provide primary path for the high di/dt components of  
the pulsing current. Placing ceramic bypass capacitor(s) as close as possible to the VIN and PGND pins is the  
key to EMI reduction.  
The SW pin connecting to the inductor should be as short as possible, and just wide enough to carry the load  
current without excessive heating. Short, thick traces or copper pours (shapes) should be used for high current  
condution path to minimize parasitic resistance. The output capacitors should be place close to the VOUT end of  
the inductor and closely grounded to PGND pin and exposed PAD.  
The bypass capacitors on VCC and BIAS pins should be placed as close as possible to the pins respectively and  
closely grounded to PGND and the exposed PAD.  
10.1.2 Ground Plane and Thermal Considerations  
It is recommended to use one of the middle layers as a solid ground plane. Ground plane provides shielding for  
sensitive circuits and traces. It also provides a quiet reference potential for the control circuitry. The AGND and  
PGND pins should be connected to the ground plane using vias right next to the bypass capacitors. PGND pins  
are connected to the source of the internal LS switch. They should be connected directly to the grounds of the  
input and output capacitors. The PGND net contains noise at switching frequency and may bounce due to load  
variations. PGND trace, as well as PVIN and SW traces, should be constrained to one side of the ground plane.  
The other side of the ground plane contains much less noise and should be used for sensitive routes.  
It is recommended to provide adequate device heat sinking by utilizing the PAD of the IC as the primary thermal  
path. Use a minimum 4 by 4 array of 10 mil thermal vias to connect the PAD to the system ground plane heat  
sink. The vias should be evenly distributed under the PAD. Use as much copper as possible, for system ground  
plane, on the top and bottom layers for the best heat dissipation. Use a four-layer board with the copper  
thickness for the four layers, starting from the top of, 2 oz / 1 oz / 1 oz / 2 oz. Four layer boards with enough  
copper thickness provides low current conduction impedance, proper shielding and lower thermal resistance.  
The thermal characteristics of the LM43603 are specified using the parameter θJA, which characterize the  
junction temperature of silicon to the abient temperature in a specific system. Although the value of θJA is  
dependant on manhy variables, it still can be used to approximate the operating junction temperature of the  
device. To obtain an estimate of the device junction temperature, one may use the following relationship:  
TJ = PD x θJA+ TA  
(27)  
where  
TJ = Junction temperature in °C  
PD = VIN x IIN x (1 - Efficiency) - 1.1 x IOUT x DCR  
DCR = Inductor DC parasitic resistance in Ω  
θJA = Junction to ambient thermal resistance of the device in °C/W  
TA = Ambient temperature in °C  
The maximum operating junction temperature of the LM43603 is 125 °C. θJA is highly related to PCB size and  
layout, as well as enviromental factors such as heat sinking and air flow. Figure 98 shows measured results of  
θJA with different copper area on a 2-layer board and 4-layer board.

10.1.3 Feedback Resistors  
To reduce noise sensitivity of the output voltage feedback path, it is important to place the resistor divider and  
CFF close to the FB pin, rather than close to the load. The FB pin is the input to the error amplifier, so it is a high  
impedance node and very sensitive to noise. Placing the resistor divider and CFF closer to the FB pin reduces the  
trace length of FB signal and reduces noise coupling. The output node is a low impedance node, so the trace  
from VOUT to the resistor divider can be long if short path is not available.  
If voltage accuracy at the load is important, make sure voltage sense is made at the load. Doing so will correct  
for voltage drops along the traces and provide the best output accuracy. The voltage sense trace from the load to  
the feedback resistor divider should be routed away from the SW node path and the inductor to avoid  
contaminating the feedback signal with switch noise, while also minimizing the trace length. This is most  
important when high value resistors are used to set the output voltage. It is recommended to route the voltage  
sense trace and place the resistor divider on a different layer than the inductor and SW node path, such that  
there is a ground plane in between the feedback trace and inductor/SW node polygon. This provides further  
shielding for the voltage feedback path from EMI noises.
