The value of RθJA given in this table is only valid for comparison with other packages and cannot be used for design  
purposes. These values were calculated in accordance with JESD 51-7, and simulated on a 4-layer JEDEC board. They do  
not represent the performance obtained in an actual application. For example, with a 4-layer PCB, a RΘJA = 25/W can be  
achieved. For design information see Maximum Ambient Temperature versus Output Current.

8 Detailed Description  
8.1 Overview  
The LM61460 is a wide input, synchronous peak-current mode buck regulator designed for a wide variety of  
industrial applications. The regulator can operate over a wide range of switching frequencies including sub-AM  
band at 400 kHz and above the AM band at 2.1 MHz. This device operates over a wide range of conversion  
ratios. If minimum on time or minimum off time does not support the desired conversion ratio, the frequency is  
reduced automatically, allowing output voltage regulation to be maintained during input voltage transients with a  
high operating-frequency setting.  
The LM61460 has been designed for low EMI and is optimized for both above and below AM band operation:  
HotRod package minimizes switch node ringing  
Parallel input path minimizes parasitic inductance  
Adjustable SW node rise time  
These features together can eliminate shielding and other expensive EMI mitigation measures.  
This device is designed to minimize end-product cost and size while operating in demanding high-performance  
industrial environments. The LM61460 can be set to operate in the range of 200 kHz through 2.2 MHz using its  
RT pin. Operation at 2.1 MHz allows for the use of small passive components. State-of-the-art current limit  
function allows the use of inductors optimized for 4-A and 6-A regulators. In addition, this device has low  
unloaded current consumption, which is desirable for off-battery, always-on applications. The low shutdown  
current and high maximum operating voltage also allow for the elimination of an external load switch and input  
transient protection. To further reduce system cost, an advanced PGOOD output is provided, which can often  
eliminate the use of an external reset or supervisory device.

8.3 Feature Description  
8.3.1 EN/SYNC Uses for Enable and VIN UVLO  
Start-up and shutdown are controlled by the EN/SYNC input and VIN UVLO. For the device to remain in  
shutdown mode, apply a voltage below VEN_WAKE (0.4 V) to the EN pin. In shutdown mode, the quiescent current  
drops to 0.6 µA (typical). At a voltage above VEN_WAKE and below VEN, VCC is active and the SW node is  
inactive. Once the EN voltage is above VEN, the chip begins to switch normally, provided the input voltage is  
above 3 V.  
The EN/SYNC pin cannot be left floating. The simplest way to enable the operation is to connect the EN/SYNC  
pin to VIN, allowing self-start-up of the LM61460 when VIN drives the internal VCC above its UVLO level.  
However, many applications benefit from the employment of an enable divider network as shown in 8-1, which  
establishes a precision input undervoltage lockout (UVLO). This can be used for sequencing, preventing re-  
triggering of the device when used with long input cables, or reducing the occurrence of deep discharge of a  
battery power source. Note that the precision enable threshold, VEN, has a 8.1% tolerance. Hysteresis must be  
enough to prevent re-triggering. External logic output of another IC can also be used to drive the EN/SYNC pin,  
allowing system power sequencing.

where  
VON is the desired typical start-up input voltage for the circuit being designed.  
Note that since the EN/SYNC pin can also be used as an external synchronization clock input. A blanking time,  
tB, is applied to the enable logic after a clock edge is detected. Any logic change within the blanking time is  
ignored. Blanking time is not applied when the device is in shutdown mode. The blanking time ranges from 4 µs  
to 28 µs. To effectively disable the output, the EN/SYNC input must stay low for longer than 28 µs.  
8.3.2 EN/SYNC Pin Uses for Synchronization  
The LM61460 EN/SYNC pin can be used to synchronize the internal oscillator to an external clock. The internal  
oscillator can be synchronized by AC coupling a positive clock edge into the EN pin, as shown in 8-2. It is  
recommended to keep the parallel combination value of RENT and RENB in the 100-kΩ range. RENT is required  
for synchronization, but RENB can be left unmounted. Switching action can be synchronized to an external clock  
ranging from 200 kHz to 2.2 MHz. The external clock must be off before start-up to allow proper start-up  
sequencing.

8-2. Typical Implementation Allowing Synchronization Using the EN Pin  
Referring to 8-3, the AC-coupled voltage edge at the EN pin must exceed the SYNC amplitude threshold,  
VEN_SYNC_MIN, to trip the internal synchronization pulse detector. In addition, the minimum EN/SYNC rising pulse  
and falling pulse durations must be longer than tSYNC_EDGE(MIN) and shorter than the blanking time, tB. A 3.3-V or  
higher amplitude pulse signal coupled through a 1-nF capacitor, CSYNC, is suggested.

8-3. Typical SYNC/EN Waveform  
After a valid synchronization signal is applied for 2048 cycles, the clock frequency abruptly changes to that of the  
applied signal. Also, if the device in use has the spread-spectrum feature, the valid synchronization signal  
overrides spread spectrum, turning it off, and the clock switches to the applied clock frequency.  
8.3.3 Clock Locking  
Once a valid synchronization signal is detected, a clock locking procedure is initiated. LMQ61460 devices  
receive this signal over the EN/SYNC pin. After approximately 2048 pulses, the clock frequency completes a  
smooth transition to the frequency of the synchronization signal without output variation. Note that while the  
frequency is adjusted suddenly, phase is maintained so the clock cycle that lies between operation at the default  
frequency and at the synchronization frequency is of intermediate length. This eliminates very long or very short  
pulses. Once frequency is adjusted, phase is adjusted over a few tens of cycles so that rising synchronization  
edges correspond to rising SW node pulses. See 8-4.

8.3.4 Adjustable Switching Frequency  
A resistor tied from the device RT pin to AGND is used to set operating frequency. Use Equation 2 or refer to 图  
8-5 for resistor values. Note that a resistor value outside of the recommended range can cause the device to  
shut down. This prevents unintended operation if RT pin is shorted to ground or left open. Do not apply a pulsed  
signal to this pin to force synchronization. If synchronization is needed, refer to 8.3.2.

8.3.5 PGOOD Output Operation  
The PGOOD function is implemented to replace a discrete reset device, reducing BOM count and cost. The  
PGOOD pin voltage goes low when the feedback voltage is outside of the specified PGOOD thresholds (see 图  
7-8). This can occur in current limit and thermal shutdown, as well as while disabled and during normal start-up.  
A glitch filter prevents false flag operation for short excursions of the output voltage, such as during line and load  
transients. Output voltage excursions that are shorter than tPGDFLT_FALL do not trip the power-good flag. Power-  
good operation can be best understood by referring to 8-6.  
The power-good output consists of an open-drain NMOS, requiring an external pullup resistor to a suitable logic  
supply or VOUT. When EN is pulled low, the flag output is also forced low. With EN low, power good remains valid  
as long as the input voltage is 1 V (typical).

(1) As an additional operational check, PGOOD remains low during soft start, defined as until the lesser of either full output voltage  
reached or tSS2 has passed since initiation.  
8.3.6 Internal LDO, VCC UVLO, and BIAS Input  
The VCC pin is the output of the internal LDO used to supply the control circuits of the LM61460. The nominal  
output is 3 V to 3.3 V. The BIAS pin is the input to the internal LDO. This input can be connected to VOUT to  
provide the lowest possible input supply current. If the BIAS voltage is less than 3.1 V, VIN1 and VIN2 directly  
powers the internal LDO.  
To prevent unsafe operation, VCC has a UVLO that prevents switching if the internal voltage is too low. See  
VCC_UVLO and VCC_UVLO_HYST in the Electrical Characteristics. Note that these UVLO values and the dropout of  
the LDO are used to derive minimum VIN_OPERATE and VIN_OPERATE_H values.  
8.3.7 Bootstrap Voltage and VCBOOT-UVLO (CBOOT Pin)  
The driver of the high-side (HS) switch requires bias higher than VIN. The capacitor, CBOOT, connected between  
CBOOT and SW, works as a charge pump to boost voltage on the CBOOT pin to SW + VCC. A boot diode is  
integrated on the LM61460 die to minimize external component count. It is recommended that a 100-nF  
capacitor rated for 10 V or higher is used. The VBOOT_UVLO threshold (2.1 V typical) is designed to maintain  
proper HS switch operation. If the CBOOT capacitor voltage drops below VBOOT_UVLO, then the device initiates a  
charging sequence, turning on the low-side switch before attempting to turn on the HS switch.  
8.3.8 Adjustable SW Node Slew Rate  
To allow optimization of EMI with respect to efficiency, the LM61460 is designed to allow a resistor to select the  
strength of the driver of the high-side FET during turn on. See 8-7. The current drawn through the RBOOT pin  
(the dotted loop) is magnified and drawn through from CBOOT (the dashed line). This current is used to turn on  
the high-side power MOSEFT.

8-7. Simplified Circuit Showing How RBOOT Functions  
With RBOOT short circuited to CBOOT, rise time is very fast. As a result, SW node harmonics do not "roll off"  
until above 150 MHz. A boot resistor of 100 corresponds to approximately 2.7-ns SW node rise, and this 100-  
boot resistor virtually eliminates SW node overshoot. The slower rise time allows energy in SW node  
harmonics to roll off near 100 MHz under most conditions. Rolling off harmonics eliminates the need for shielding  
and common mode chokes in many applications. Note that rise time increases with increasing input voltage.  
Noise due to stored charge is also greatly reduced with higher RBOOT resistance. Switching with slower slew  
rate also decreases the efficiency.  
8.3.9 Spread Spectrum  
Spread spectrum is a factory option. To find which devices have spread spectrum enabled, see 5. The  
purpose of spread spectrum is to eliminate peak emissions at specific frequencies by spreading these emissions  
across a wider range of frequencies rather than apart with fixed frequency operation. In most systems containing  
the LM61460, low frequency-conducted emissions from the first few harmonics of the switching frequency can  
be easily filtered. A more difficult design criterion is reduction of emissions at higher harmonics that fall in the FM  
band. These harmonics often couple to the environment through electric fields around the switch node and  
inductor. The LM61460 uses a ±2% spread of frequencies which can spread energy smoothly across the FM and  
TV bands but is small enough to limit subharmonic emissions below the device switching frequency. Peak  
emissions at the switching frequency of the part are only reduced slightly, by less than 1 dB, while peaks in the  
FM band are typically reduced by more than 6 dB.  
The LM61460 uses a cycle-to-cycle frequency hopping method based on a linear feedback shift register (LFSR).  
This intelligent pseudo-random generator limits cycle-to-cycle frequency changes to limit output ripple. The  
pseudo-random pattern repeats at less than 1.5 Hz, which is below the audio band.  
The spread spectrum is only available while the clock of the LM61460 devices are free running at their natural  
frequency. Any of the following conditions overrides spread spectrum, turning it off:  
The clock is slowed during dropout.  
The clock is slowed at light load in auto mode. In FPWM mode, spread spectrum is active even if there is no  
load.  
At a high input voltage/low output voltage ratio when the device operates at minimum on-time, the internal  
clock is slowed, disabling spread spectrum. See the Timing Characteristics.  
The clock is synchronized with an external clock.

8.3.10 Soft Start and Recovery From Dropout  
The LM61460 uses a reference-based soft start that prevents output voltage overshoots and large inrush  
currents during start-up. Soft start is triggered by any of the following conditions:  
Power is applied to the VIN pin of the IC, releasing UVLO.  
EN is used to turn on the device.  
Recovery from a hiccup waiting period  
Recovery from shutdown due to overtemperature protection  
Once soft start is triggered, the IC takes the following actions:  
The reference used by the IC to regulate output voltage is slowly ramped. The net result is that output voltage  
takes tSS to reach 90% of its desired value.  
Operating mode is set to auto, activating diode emulation. This allows start-up without pulling output low if  
there is a voltage already present on output.  
These actions together provide start-up with limited inrush currents and also allow the use of larger output  
capacitors and higher loading conditions that cause current to border on current limit during start-up without  
triggering hiccup. See 8-8.

Soft start works with both output voltages starting from 0 V on the left curves, or if there is already voltage on the output, as shown on  
right. In either case, output voltage must reach within 10% of the desired value tSS after soft start is initiated. During soft start, FPWM  
and hiccup are disabled. Both hiccup and FPWM are enabled once output reaches regulation or tSS2, whichever happens first.  
8-8. Soft-Start Operation  
Any time the output voltage falls more than a few percent, the output voltage ramps up slowly. This condition is  
called recovery from dropout and differs from soft start in three important ways:  
The reference voltage is set to approximately 1% above what is needed to achieve the existing output  
voltage.  
Hiccup is allowed if output voltage is less than 0.4 times its set point. Note that during dropout regulation  
itself, hiccup is inhibited.  
FPWM mode is allowed during recovery from dropout. If the output voltage were to suddenly be pulled up by  
an external supply, the LM61460 can pull down on the output.  
Despite being called recovery from dropout, this feature is active whenever output voltage drops to a few percent  
lower than the set point. This primarily occurs under the following conditions:  
Dropout: When there is insufficient input voltage for the desired output voltage to be generated  
Overcurrent: When there is an overcurrent event that is not severe enough to trigger hiccup

Whether output voltage falls due to high load or low input voltage, once the condition that causes output to fall below its set point is  
removed, the output climbs at the same speed as during start-up. Even though hiccup does not trigger due to dropout, it can, in  
principle, be triggered during recovery if output voltage is below 0.4 times the output set point for more than 128 clock cycles.

In addition, a feedforward capacitor, CFF, connected in parallel with RFBT can be required to optimize the  
transient response.  
8.3.12 Overcurrent and Short Circuit Protection  
The LM61460 is protected from overcurrent conditions with cycle-by-cycle current limiting on both the high-side  
and the low-side MOSFETs.  
High-side MOSFET overcurrent 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 short blanking time. Every switching cycle, the HS  
switch current is compared to either the minimum of a fixed current set point or the output of the voltage  
regulation loop minus slope compensation. Because the voltage loop has a maximum value and slope  
compensation increases with duty cycle, HS current limit decreases with increased duty cycle when duty cycle is  
above 35%. See 8-12.

When the LS switch is turned on, the switch current is also sensed and monitored. Like the high-side device, the  
low-side device turns off as commanded by the voltage control loop and low-side current limit. If the LS switch  
current is higher than ILS_Limit at the end of a switching cycle, the switching cycle is extended until the LS current  
reduces below the limit. The LS switch is turned off once the LS current falls below its limit, and the HS switch is  
turned on again as long as at least one clock period has passed since the last time the HS device has turned on.

8-13. Current Limit Waveforms  
Since the current waveform assumes values between IL-HS and IL-LS, the maximum output current is very close  
to the average of these two values. Hysteretic control is used and current does not increase as output voltage  
approaches zero.  
The LM61460 employs hiccup overcurrent protection if there is an extreme overload, and the following  
conditions are met for 128 consecutive switching cycles:  
Output voltage is below approximately 0.4 times the output voltage set point.  
Greater than tSS2 has passed since soft start has started; see 8.3.10.  
The part is not operating in dropout, which is defined as having minimum off time controlled duty cycle.  
In hiccup mode, the device shuts itself down and attempts to soft start after tW. Hiccup mode helps reduce the  
device power dissipation under severe overcurrent conditions and short circuits. See 8-14.  
Once the overload is removed, the device recovers as though in soft start; see 8-15.

Thermal shutdown prevents the device from extreme junction temperatures by turning off the internal switches

drops to approximately 155°C. When the junction temperature falls below 155°C (typical), the LM61460 attempts

While the LM61460 is shut down due to high junction temperature, power continues to be provided to VCC. To  
prevent overheating due to a short circuit applied to VCC, the LDO that provides power for VCC has reduced  
current limit while the part is disabled due to high junction temperature. The VCC current limit is reduced to a few  
milliamperes during thermal shutdown.  
8.3.14 Input Supply Current  
The LM61460 is designed to have very low input supply current when regulating light loads. This is achieved by  
powering much of the internal circuitry from the output. The BIAS pin is the input to the LDO that powers the  
majority of the control circuits. By connecting the BIAS input pin to the output of the regulator, a small amount of  
current is drawn from the output. This current is reduced at the input by the ratio of VOUT / VIN.

• ηeff is the light-load efficiency of the buck converter with IQ_VIN removed from the input current of the buck

8.4 Device Functional Modes  
8.4.1 Shutdown Mode  
The EN pin provides electrical ON and OFF control of the device. When the EN pin voltage is below 0.4 V, both  
the converter and the internal LDO have no output voltage and the device is in shutdown mode. In shutdown  
mode, the quiescent current drops to typically 0.6 µA.  
8.4.2 Standby Mode  
The internal LDO has a lower EN threshold than the output of the converter. When the EN pin voltage is above  
1.1 V (maximum) and below the precision enable threshold for the output voltage, the internal LDO regulates the  
VCC voltage at 3.3 V typical. The precision enable circuitry is ON once VCC is above its UVLO. The internal  
power MOSFETs of the SW node remain off unless the voltage on EN pin goes above its precision enable  
threshold. The LM61460 also employs UVLO protection. If the VCC voltage is below its UVLO level, the output  
of the converter is turned off.  
8.4.3 Active Mode  
The LM61460 is in active mode whenever the EN pin is above VEN, VIN is high enough to satisfy VIN_OPERATE  
and no other fault conditions are present. The simplest way to enable the operation is to connect the EN pin to  
VIN, which allows self start-up when the applied input voltage exceeds the minimum VIN_OPERATE  
,
.
In active mode, depending on the load current, input voltage, and output voltage, the LM61460 is in one of five  
modes:  
Continuous conduction mode (CCM) with fixed switching frequency when load current is above half of the  
inductor current ripple.  
Auto mode Light-Load Operation: PFM when switching frequency is decreased at very light load.  
FPWM mode Light-Load Operation: Discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) when the load current is lower  
than half of the inductor current ripple.  
Minimum on time: At high input voltage and low output voltages, the switching frequency is reduced to  
maintain regulation.  
Dropout mode: When switching frequency is reduced to minimize voltage dropout.

8.4.3.1 CCM Mode  
The following operating description of the LM61460 refers to 8.2 and to the waveforms in 8-16. In CCM,  
the LM61460 supplies a regulated output voltage by turning on the internal high-side (HS) and low-side (LS)  
NMOS switches with varying duty cycle (D). 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. The HS switch is turned off by  
the control logic. During the HS switch off time, tOFF, the LS switch is turned on. Inductor current discharges  
through the LS switch, which forces the VSW to swing below ground by the voltage drop across the LS switch.  
The converter loop adjusts the duty cycle to maintain a constant output voltage. D is defined by the on-time of  
the HS switch over the switching period:  
D = TON / TSW  
(5)  
In an ideal buck converter where losses are ignored, D is proportional to the output voltage and inversely  
proportional to the input voltage:

8.4.3.2 Auto Mode Light-Load Operation  
The LM61460 can have two behaviors while lightly loaded. One behavior, called auto mode operation, allows for  
seamless transition between normal current mode operation while heavily loaded and highly efficient light load  
operation. The other behavior, called FPWM mode, maintains full frequency even when unloaded. Which mode  
the LM61460 operates in depends on which factory option is employed. See 5 for options. Note that all parts  
operate in FPWM mode when synchronizing frequency to an external signal.  
In auto mode, light load operation is employed in the LM61460 at load lower than approximately a tenth of the  
rated maximum output current. Light load operation employs two techniques to improve efficiency:  
Diode emulation, which allows DCM operation  
Frequency reduction  
Note that while these two features operate together to create excellent light load behavior, they operate  
independently of each other.  
8.4.3.2.1 Diode Emulation  
Diode emulation prevents reverse current through the inductor, which requires a lower frequency needed to  
regulate given a fixed peak inductor current. Diode emulation also limits ripple current as frequency is reduced.  
With a fixed peak current, as output current is reduced to zero, frequency must be reduced to near zero to  
maintain regulation.

In auto mode, the low-side device is turned off once SW node current is near zero. As a result, once output current is less than half of  
what inductor ripple would be in CCM, the part operates in DCM which is equivalent to the statement that diode emulation is active.  
8-17. PFM Operation  
The device has a minimum peak inductor current setting while in auto mode. Once current is reduced to a low  
value with fixed input voltage, on time is constant. Regulation is then achieved by adjusting frequency. This  
mode of operation is called PFM mode regulation.  
8.4.3.2.2 Frequency Reduction  
The LM61460 reduces frequency whenever output voltage is high. This function is enabled whenever Comp, an  
internal signal, is low and there is an offset between the regulation set point of FB and the voltage applied to FB.  
The net effect is that there is larger output impedance while lightly loaded in auto mode than in normal operation.  
Output voltage must be approximately 1% high when the part is completely unloaded.

In auto mode, once output current drops below approximately 1/10th the rated current of the part, output resistance increases so that  
output voltage is 1% high while the buck is completely unloaded.  
8-18. Steady State Output Voltage Versus Output Current in Auto Mode  
In PFM operation, a small DC positive offset is required on the output voltage to activate the PFM detector. The  
lower the frequency in PFM, the more DC offset is needed on VOUT. If the DC offset on VOUT is not acceptable, a  
dummy load at VOUT or FPWM Mode can be used to reduce or eliminate this offset.

8.4.3.3 FPWM Mode Light-Load Operation  
Like auto mode operation, FPWM mode operation during light load operation is selected as a factory option.  
In FPWM mode, frequency is maintained while lightly loaded. To maintain frequency, a limited reverse current is  
allowed to flow through the inductor. Reverse current is limited by reverse current limit circuitry, see 7.4 for  
reverse current limit values.

8-19. FPWM Mode Operation  
For all devices, in FPWM mode, frequency reduction is still available if output voltage is high enough to  
command minimum on time even while lightly loaded, allowing good behavior during faults which involve output  
being pulled up.  
8.4.3.4 Minimum On-Time (High Input Voltage) Operation  
The LM61460 continues to regulate output voltage even if the input-to-output voltage ratio requires an on time  
less than the minimum on time of the chip with a given clock setting. This is accomplished using valley current  
control. At all times, the compensation circuit dictates both a maximum peak inductor current and a maximum  
valley inductor current. If for any reason, valley current is exceeded, the clock cycle is extended until valley  
current falls below that determined by the compensation circuit. If the converter is not operating in current limit,  
the maximum valley current is set above the peak inductor current, preventing valley control from being used  
unless there is a failure to regulate using peak current only. If the input-to-output voltage ratio is too high, even  
though current exceeds the peak value dictated by compensation, the high-side device cannot be turned off  
quickly enough to regulate output voltage. As a result, the compensation circuit reduces both peak and valley  
current. Once a low enough current is selected by the compensation circuit, valley current matches that being  
commanded by the compensation circuit. Under these conditions, the low-side device is kept on and the next  
clock cycle is prevented from starting until inductor current drops below the desired valley current. Since on-time  
is fixed at its minimum value, this type of operation resembles that of a device using a Constant On-Time (COT)  
control scheme; see 8-20.

In valley control mode, minimum inductor current is regulated, not peak inductor current.  
8-20. Valley Current Mode Operation  
8.4.3.5 Dropout  
Dropout operation is defined as any input-to-output voltage ratio that requires frequency to drop to achieve the  
required duty cycle. At a given clock frequency, duty cycle is limited by minimum off time. Once this limit is  
reached, if clock frequency were maintained, output voltage would fall. Instead of allowing the output voltage to  
drop, the LM61460 extends on time past the end of the clock cycle until the required peak inductor current is  
achieved. The clock is allowed to start a new cycle once peak inductor current is achieved or once a pre-  
determined maximum on time, tON_MAX, of approximately 9 µs passes. As a result, once the needed duty cycle  
cannot be achieved at the selected clock frequency due to the existence of a minimum off time, frequency drops  
to maintain regulation. If input voltage is low enough so that output voltage cannot be regulated even with an on  
time of tON_MAX, output voltage drops to slightly below the input voltage, VDROP1. For additional information on  
recovery from dropout, reference 8-9.

9.1 Application Information  
The LM61460 step-down DC-to-DC converter is typically used to convert a higher DC voltage to a lower DC  
voltage with a maximum output current of 6 A. Using a 4-layer LM61460EVM at 400kHz, the LM61460 can  
sustain a continuous 6 A load up to an ambient temperature of approximately 95C; see 9-2. If ambient  
temperature is 105°C and the frequency is set to 2.1 MHz, the current must be limited to 4 A; see 9-3. The  
following design procedure can be used to select components for the LM61460.

9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure  
The following design procedure applies to 9-1 and 9-1.  
9.2.2.1 Choosing the Switching Frequency  
The choice of switching frequency is a compromise between conversion efficiency and overall solution size.  
Lower switching frequency implies reduced switching losses and usually results in higher system efficiency.  
However, higher switching frequency allows for the use of smaller inductors and output capacitors, hence, a  
more compact design.  
When choosing operating frequency, the most important consideration is thermal limitations. This constraint  
typically dominates frequency selection. See 9-2 for circuits running at 400 kHz and 9-3 for circuits running  
at 2.1 MHz. These curves show how much output current can be supported at a given ambient temperature  
given these switching frequencies. Note that power dissipation is layout dependent so while these curves are a  
good starting point, thermal resistance in any design will be different from the estimates used to generate 9-2

LM61460EVM. Unless a larger copper area or cooling is provided to reduce the effective RθJA, if ambient  
temperature is 105°C and the switching frequency is set to 2.1 MHz, the load current must typically be limited to  
4 A.

Two other considerations are what maximum and minimum input voltage the part must maintain its frequency  
setting. Since the LM61460 adjusts its frequency under conditions in which regulation would normally be  
prevented by minimum on time or minimum off time, these constraints are only important for input voltages  
requiring constant frequency operation.

See the Electrical Characteristics for tOFF_MIN(MAX).  
See the Electrical Characteristics for RDS(ON)_HS(MAX).  
The fourth constraint is the rated frequency range of the IC. See fADJ in Electrical Characteristics. All previously  
stated constraints (thermal, VIN(MAX2), VIN(MIN2), and device-specified frequency range) must be considered  
when selecting frequency.  
Many applications require that the AM band can be avoided. These applications tend to operate at either 400  
kHz below the AM band or 2.1 MHz above the AM band. In this example, 400 kHz is chosen.  
9.2.2.2 Setting the Output Voltage  
The output voltage of LM61460 is externally adjustable using a resistor divider network. The range of  
recommended output voltage is found in 7.2. The divider network is comprised of RFBT and RFBB, and closes  
the loop between the output voltage and the converter. The converter regulates the output voltage by holding the  
voltage on the FB pin equal to the internal reference voltage, VREF. The resistance of the divider is a  
compromise between excessive noise pickup and excessive loading of the output. Smaller values of resistance  
reduce noise sensitivity but also reduce the light load efficiency. The recommended value for RFBT is 100 kΩ  
with a maximum value of 1 MΩ. If 1 MΩis selected for RFBT, then a feedforward capacitor must be used across  
this resistor to provide adequate loop phase margin (see 9.2.2.10). Once RFBT is selected, 方程3 is used to  
select RFBB. VREF is nominally 1 V. For this 5-V example, RFBT = 100 kΩand RFBB = 24.9 kΩare chosen.  
9.2.2.3 Inductor Selection  
The parameters for selecting the inductor are the inductance and saturation current. The inductance is based on  
the desired peak-to-peak ripple current and is normally chosen to be in the range of 20% to 40% of the  
maximum output current. Experience shows that the best value for inductor ripple current is 30% of the  
maximum load current for systems with a fixed input voltage and 25% for systems with a variable input voltage  
such as the 12 volt battery in a car. Note that when selecting the ripple current for applications with much smaller  
maximum load than the maximum available from the device, the maximum device current must still be used. 方  
程式 9 can be used to determine the value of inductance. The constant K is the percentage of inductor current  
ripple. For this example, K = 0.25 was chosen and an inductance of approximately 5.2 µH was found. The next  
standard value of 4.7 μH was selected.

The saturation current rating of the inductor must be at least as large as the high-side switch current limit, IL-HS  
(see 7.4). This ensures that the inductor does not saturate even during a short circuit on the output. When the  
inductor core material saturates, the inductance falls to a very low value, causing the inductor current to rise very

rapidly. Although the valley current limit, IL-LS, is designed to reduce the risk of current run-away, a saturated  
inductor can cause the current to rise to high values very rapidly. This can lead to component damage; do not  
allow the inductor to saturate. Inductors with a ferrite core material have very hard saturation characteristics, but  
usually have lower core losses than powdered iron cores. Powdered iron cores exhibit a soft saturation, allowing  
some relaxation in the current rating of the inductor. However, they have more core losses at frequencies  
typically above 1 MHz. In any case, the inductor saturation current must not be less than the device high-side  
current limit, IL-HS (see 7.4). To avoid subharmonic oscillation, the inductance value must not be less than that  
given in 方程式 10. The maximum inductance is limited by the minimum current ripple required for the current  
mode control to perform correctly. As a rule-of-thumb, the minimum inductor ripple current must be no less than  
about 10% of the device maximum rated current under nominal conditions.

方程式 10 assumes that this design must operate with input voltage near or in dropout. If minimum operating

Note that choosing an inductor that is larger than the minimum inductance calculated using 方程式 9 through 方  
程式 11 results in less output capacitance being needed to limit output ripple but more output capacitance being  
needed to manage large load transients. See 9.2.2.4.  
9.2.2.4 Output Capacitor Selection  
The value of the output capacitor and its ESR determine the output voltage ripple and load transient  
performance. The output capacitor is usually determined by the load transient requirements rather than the  
output voltage ripple. 9-3 can be used to find the output capacitor and CFF selection for a few common  
applications. Note that a 1-kΩ RFF can be used in series with CFF to further improve noise performance. In this  
example, improved transient performance is desired giving 2 × 47-µF ceramic as the output capacitor and 22 pF  
as CFF.

Most ceramic capacitors deliver far less capacitance than the rating of the capacitor indicates. Be sure to check  
any capacitor selected for initial accuracy, temperature derating, and voltage derating. 9-3 and 9-4 have  
been generated assuming typical derating for 16-V, X7R, automotive grade capacitors. If lower voltage, non-  
automotive grade, or lower temperature rated capacitors are used, more capacitors than listed are likely to be  
needed.  
9.2.2.5 Input Capacitor Selection  
The ceramic input capacitors provide a low impedance source to the converter in addition to supplying the ripple  
current and isolating switching noise from other circuits. A minimum of 10 μF of ceramic capacitance is required  
on the input of the device. This must be rated for at least the maximum input voltage that the application  
requires; preferably twice the maximum input voltage. This capacitance can be increased to help reduce input  
voltage ripple and maintain the input voltage during load transients. In addition, a small case size 100-nF  
ceramic capacitor must be used at each input/ground pin pair, VIN1/PGND1 and VIN2/PGND2, immediately  
adjacent to the converter. This provides a high-frequency bypass for the control circuits internal to the device.  
These capacitors also suppress SW node ringing, which reduces the maximum voltage present on the SW node  
and EMI. The two 100 nF must also be rated at 50 V with an X7R or better dielectric. The VQFN-HR (RJR)  
package provides two input voltage pins and two power ground pins on opposite sides of the package. This  
allows the input capacitors to be split, and placed optimally with respect to the internal power MOSFETs, thus  
improving the effectiveness of the input bypassing. In this example, two 4.7-μF and two 100-nF ceramic  
capacitors are used, one at each VIN/PGND location. A single 10-μF capacitor can also be used on one side of  
the package.  
Many times, it is desirable and necessary to use an electrolytic capacitor on the input in parallel with the  
ceramics. This is especially true if long leads or traces are used to connect the input supply to the converter. The  
moderate ESR of this capacitor can help damp any ringing on the input supply caused by the long power leads.  
The use of this additional capacitor also helps with momentary voltage dips caused by input supplies with  
unusually high impedance.  
Most of the input switching current passes through the ceramic input capacitors. The approximate worst case  
RMS value of this current can be calculated from 方程式 12 and must be checked against the manufacturers'  
maximum ratings.

9.2.2.6 BOOT Capacitor  
The LM61460 requires a bootstrap capacitor connected between the CBOOT pin and the SW pin. This capacitor  
stores energy that is used to supply the gate drivers for the high-side power MOSFET. A high-quality (X7R)  
ceramic capacitor of 100 nF and at least 10 V is required.  
9.2.2.7 BOOT Resistor  
A BOOT resistor can be connected between the CBOOT and RBOOT pins. Unless EMI for the application being  
designed is critical, these two pins can be shorted. A 100-Ω resistor between these pins eliminates overshoot.  
Even with 0 Ω, overshoot and ringing are minimal, less than 2 V if input capacitors are placed correctly. A boot  
resistor of 100 Ω, which corresponds to approximately 2.7-ns SW node rise time and decreases efficiency by  
approximately 0.5% at 2 MHz. To maximize efficiency, 0 Ω is chosen for this example. Under most  
circumstances, selecting an RBOOT resistor value above 100 Ω is undesirable since the resulting small  
improvement in EMI is not enough to justify further decreased efficiency.  
9.2.2.8 VCC  
The VCC pin is the output of the internal LDO used to supply the control circuits of the converter. This output  
requires a 1-μF, 16-V ceramic capacitor connected from VCC to AGND for proper operation. In general, avoid  
loading this output with any external circuitry. However, this output can be used to supply the pullup for the

power-good function (see 8.3.5). A pullup resistor with a value of 100 kΩ is a good choice in this case. Note,  
VCC remains high when VEN_WAKE< EN < VEN. The nominal output voltage on VCC is 3.3 V. Do not short this  
output to ground or any other external voltage.  
9.2.2.9 BIAS  
Because VOUT = 5 V in this design, the BIAS pin is tied to VOUT to reduce LDO power loss. The output voltage is  
supplying the LDO current instead of the input voltage. The power saving is ILDO × (VIN VOUT). The power  
saving is more significant when VIN >> VOUT and with higher frequency operation. To prevent VOUT noise and  
transients from coupling to BIAS, a series resistor, 1 Ω to 10 Ω, can be added between VOUT and BIAS. A  
bypass capacitor with a value of 1 μF or higher can be added close to the BIAS pin to filter noise. Note the  
maximum allowed voltage on the BIAS pin is 16 V.  
9.2.2.10 CFF and RFF Selection  
A feedforward capacitor, CFF, is used to improve phase margin and transient response of circuits, which have  
output capacitors with low ESR. Since this capacitor can conduct noise from the output of the circuit directly to  
the FB node of the IC, a 1-kΩ resistor, RFF, can be placed in series with CFF. If the ESR zero of the output  
capacitor is below 200 kHz, no CFF must be used.  
If output voltage is less than 2.5 V, CFF has little effect, so it can be omitted. If output voltage is greater than 14 V,  
CFF must not be used since it introduces too much gain at higher frequencies.  
9.2.2.11 External UVLO  
In some cases, an input UVLO level different than that provided internal to the device is needed. This can be  
accomplished by using the circuit shown in 9-4. The input voltage at which the device turns on is designated  
V
ON while the turnoff voltage is VOFF. First, a value for RENB is chosen in the range of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ, then 方  
程式 14 is used to calculate RENT and VOFF. RENB is typically set based on how much current this voltage divider  
must consume. RENB can be calculated using 方程13.

10 Power Supply Recommendations  
The characteristics of the input supply must be compatible with Absolute Maximum Ratings and Recommended  
Operating Conditions in this data sheet. In addition, the input supply must be capable of delivering the required  
input current to the loaded converter. The average input current can be estimated with 方程15.  
VOUT ‡ IOUT  
VIN  
IIN =  
(15)  
where  
ηis the efficiency.  
If the converter is connected to the input supply through long wires or PCB traces, special care is required to  
achieve good performance. The parasitic inductance and resistance of the input cables can have an adverse  
effect on the operation of the converter. The parasitic inductance, in combination with the low-ESR, ceramic  
input capacitors, can form an under-damped resonant circuit, resulting in overvoltage transients at the input to  
the converter or tripping UVLO. The parasitic resistance can cause the voltage at the VIN pin to dip whenever a  
load transient is applied to the output. If the application is operating close to the minimum input voltage, this dip  
can cause the converter to momentarily shutdown and reset. The best way to solve these kind of issues is to  
reduce the distance from the input supply to the converter and use an aluminum input capacitor in parallel with  
the ceramics. The moderate ESR of this type of capacitor helps damp the input resonant circuit and reduce any  
overshoot or undershoot at the input. A value in the range of 20 µF to 100 µF is usually sufficient to provide input  
damping and help hold the input voltage steady during large load transients.  
In some cases, a transient voltage suppressor (TVS) is used on the input of converters. One class of this device  
has a snap-back characteristic (thyristor type). The use of a device with this type of characteristic is not  
recommended. When the TVS fires, the clamping voltage falls to a very low value. If this voltage is less than the  
output voltage of the converter, the output capacitors discharge through the device back to the input. This  
uncontrolled current flow can damage the TVS and cause large input transients.  
The input voltage must not be allowed to fall below the output voltage. In this scenario, such as a shorted input  
test, the output capacitors discharge through the internal parasitic diode found between the VIN and SW pins of  
the device. During this condition, the current can become uncontrolled, possibly causing damage to the device. If  
this scenario is considered likely, then a Schottky diode between the input supply and the output must be used.

11 Layout  
11.1 Layout Guidelines  
The PCB layout of any DC-DC converter is critical to the optimal performance of the design. Bad PCB layout can  
disrupt the operation of an otherwise good schematic design. Even if the converter regulates correctly, bad PCB  
layout can mean the difference between a robust design and one that cannot be mass produced. Furthermore,  
the EMI performance of the converter is dependent on the PCB layout, to a great extent. In a buck converter, the  
most critical PCB feature is the loop formed by the input capacitor or capacitors and power ground, as shown in  
11-1. This loop carries large transient currents that can cause large transient voltages when reacting with the  
trace inductance. These unwanted transient voltages disrupt the proper operation of the converter. Because of  
this, the traces in this loop must be wide and short, and the loop area as small as possible to reduce the parasitic  
inductance. 11-2 shows a recommended layout for the critical components for the circuit of the device.  
Place the input capacitor or capacitors as close as possible input pin pairs: VIN1 to PGND1 and VIN2 to  
PGND2. Each pair of pins are adjacent, simplifying the input capacitor placement. With the VQFN-HR  
package, there are two VIN/PGND pairs on either side of the package. This provides for a symmetrical layout  
and helps minimize switching noise and EMI generation. Use a wide VIN plane on a lower layer to connect  
both of the VIN pairs together to the input supply.  
Place bypass capacitor for VCC close to the VCC pin and AGND pins: This capacitor must routed with short,  
wide traces to the VCC and AGND pins.  
Use wide traces for the CBOOT capacitor: Place the CBOOT capacitor as close to the device with short, wide  
traces to the CBOOT and SW pins. It is important to route the SW connection under the device through the  
gap between VIN2 and RBOOT pins, reducing exposed SW node area. If an RBOOT resistor is used, place  
as close as possible to CBOOT and RBOOT pins. If high efficiency is desired, RBOOT and CBOOT pins can  
be shorted. This short must be placed as close as possible to RBOOT and CBOOT pins as possible.  
Place the feedback divider as close as possible to the FB pin of the device: Place RFBB, RFBT, and CFF, if  
used, physically close to the device. The connections to FB and AGND through RFBB must be short and close  
to those pins on the device. The connection to VOUT can be somewhat longer. However, this latter trace must  
not be routed near any noise source (such as the SW node) that can capacitively couple into the feedback  
path of the converter. For fixed output variants, the FB pin must be directly routed to the output of the device.  
Layer of the PCB beneath the top layer with the IC must be a ground plane: This plane acts as a noise shield  
and a heat dissipation path. Using the layer directly next to the IC reduces the inclosed area in the input  
circulating current in the input loop, reducing inductance.  
Provide wide paths for VIN, VOUT, and GND: These paths must be wide and direct as possible to reduce any  
voltage drops on the input or output paths of the converter and maximizes efficiency.  
Provide enough PCB area for proper heat sinking: Enough copper area must be used to ensure a low RθJA  
commensurate with the maximum load current and ambient temperature. Make the top and bottom PCB  
layers with two-ounce copper and no less than one ounce. If the PCB design uses multiple copper layers  
(recommended), thermal vias can also be connected to the inner layer heat-spreading ground planes. Note  
,
that the package of this device dissipates heat through all pins. Wide traces must be used for all pins except  
where noise considerations dictate minimization of area.  
Keep switch area small: Keep the copper area connecting the SW pin to the inductor as short and wide as  
possible. At the same time, the total area of this node must be minimized to help reduce radiated EMI.

11.1.1 Ground and Thermal Considerations  
As mentioned above, TI recommends using one of the middle layers as a solid ground plane. A 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 must be connected to the ground planes using vias next to the bypass  
capacitors. PGND pins are connected directly to the source of the low-side MOSFET switch, and also connected  
directly to the grounds of the input and output capacitors. The PGND net contains noise at the switching  
frequency and can bounce due to load variations. The PGND trace, as well as the VIN and SW traces, must be  
constrained to one side of the ground planes. The other side of the ground plane contains much less noise and  
must be used for sensitive routes.  
TI recommends providing adequate device heat sinking by using vias near ground and VIN to connect to the  
system ground plane or VIN strap, both of which dissipate heat. 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 as: 2 oz / 1 oz / 1 oz / 2 oz. A four-layer board with enough  
copper thickness and proper layout, provides low current conduction impedance, proper shielding, and lower  
thermal resistance.
