This has created a major emphasis on improving the conversion efficiency of today's Synchronous Buck Topology. In particular, there has been an emphasis in improving the performance of the critical Power Semiconductor in the Power Stage of this Application (see Figure 28). As such, optimization of the power semiconductors in these applications, needs to go beyond simply reducing RDS(ON). Figure 28. The CSD87330Q3D is part of TI's Power Block product family which is a highly optimized product for use in a synchronous buck topology requiring high current, high efficiency, and high frequency. It incorporates TI's latest generation silicon which has been optimized for switching performance, as well as minimizing losses associated with QGD, QGS, and QRR. Furthermore, TI's patented packaging technology has minimized losses by nearly eliminating parasitic elements between the Control FET and Sync FET connections (see Figure 29). A key challenge solved by TI's patented packaging technology is the system level impact of Common Source Inductance (CSI). CSI greatly impedes the switching characteristics of any MOSFET which in turn increases switching losses and reduces system efficiency. As a result, the effects of CSI need to be considered during the MOSFET selection process. In addition, standard MOSFET switching loss equations used to predict system efficiency need to be modified in order to account for the effects of CSI. Further details behind the effects of CSI and modification of switching loss equations are outlined in TI's Application Note SLPA009. Figure 29.

Figure 30 and Figure 31 compare the efficiency and power loss performance of the CSD87330Q3D versus industry standard MOSFET chipsets commonly used in this type of application. This comparison purely focuses on the efficiency and generated loss of the power semiconductors only. The performance of CSD87330Q3D clearly highlights the importance of considering the Effective AC On-Impedance (ZDS(ON)) during the MOSFET selection process of any new design. Simply normalizing to traditional MOSFET RDS(ON) specifications is not an indicator of the actual in-circuit performance when using TI's Power Block technology. 96 5 94 4.5 PowerBlock HS/LS RDS(ON) = 9.4m/4.7m Discrete HS/LS RDS(ON) = 9.4m/4.7m Discrete HS/LS RDS(ON) = 9.4m/3.6m 4 Power Loss (W) Efficiency (%) 92 VGS = 5V VIN = 12V VOUT = 1.3V LOUT = 1H fSW = 500kHz TA = 25C 90 88 86 3.5 VGS = 5V VIN = 12V VOUT = 1.3V LOUT = 1H fSW = 500kHz TA = 25C 3 2.5 2 1.5 84 80 1 PowerBlock HS/LS RDS(ON) = 9.4m/4.7m Discrete HS/LS RDS(ON) = 9.4m/4.7m Discrete HS/LS RDS(ON) = 9.4m/3.6m 82 0 5 10 15 Output Current (A) 20 0.5 25 0 0 5 Figure 30. 10 15 Output Current (A) 20 25 Figure 31. The chart below compares the traditional DC measured RDS(ON) of CSD87330Q3D versus its ZDS(ON). This comparison takes into account the improved efficiency associated with TI's patented packaging technology. As such, when comparing TI's Power Block products to individually packaged discrete MOSFETs or dual MOSFETs in a standard package, the in-circuit switching performance of the solution must be considered. In this example, individually packaged discrete MOSFETs or dual MOSFETs in a standard package would need to have DC measured RDS(ON) values that are equivalent to CSD87330Q3D's ZDS(ON) value in order to have the same efficiency performance at full load. Mid to light-load efficiency will still be lower with individually packaged discrete MOSFETs or dual MOSFETs in a standard package.

The Control FET and Sync FET silicon are parametrically tuned to yield the lowest power loss and highest system efficiency. As a result, a new rating method is needed which is tailored towards a more systems centric environment. System level performance curves such as Power Loss, Safe Operating Area, and normalized graphs allow engineers to predict the product performance in the actual application. Power Loss Curves MOSFET centric parameters such as RDS(ON) and Qgd are needed to estimate the loss generated by the devices. In an effort to simplify the design process for engineers, Texas Instruments has provided measured power loss performance curves. Figure 1 plots the power loss of the CSD87330Q3D as a function of load current. This curve is measured by configuring and running the CSD87330Q3D as it would be in the final application (see Figure 32).The measured power loss is the CSD87330Q3D loss and consists of both input conversion loss and gate drive loss. Equation 1 is used to generate the power loss curve. (VIN x IIN) + (VDD x IDD) - (VSW_AVG x IOUT) = Power Loss (1) The power loss curve in Figure 1 is measured at the maximum recommended junction temperatures of 125C under isothermal test conditions. Safe Operating Curves (SOA) The SOA curves in the CSD87330Q3D data sheet provides guidance on the temperature boundaries within an operating system by incorporating the thermal resistance and system power loss. Figure 3 to Figure 5 outline the temperature and airflow conditions required for a given load current. The area under the curve dictates the safe operating area. All the curves are based on measurements made on a PCB design with dimensions of 4" (W) x 3.5" (L) x 0.062" (T) and 6 copper layers of 1 oz. copper thickness. Normalized Curves The normalized curves in the CSD87330Q3D data sheet provides guidance on the Power Loss and SOA adjustments based on their application specific needs. These curves show how the power loss and SOA boundaries will adjust for a given set of systems conditions. The primary Y-axis is the normalized change in power loss and the secondary Y-axis is the change is system temperature required in order to comply with the SOA curve. The change in power loss is a multiplier for the Power Loss curve and the change in temperature is subtracted from the SOA curve. Figure 32.

Though the Power Loss and SOA curves in this data sheet are taken for a specific set of test conditions, the following procedure will outline the steps the user should take to predict product performance for any set of system conditions. Design Example Operating Conditions: * Output Current = 15A * Input Voltage = 12V * Output Voltage = 1.2V * Switching Frequency = 1000kHz * Inductor = 0.4H Calculating Power Loss * * * * * * Power Loss at 15A = 2.2W (Figure 1) Normalized Power Loss for input voltage 1.0 (Figure 7) Normalized Power Loss for output voltage 0.98 (Figure 8) Normalized Power Loss for switching frequency 1.17 (Figure 6) Normalized Power Loss for output inductor 1.06 (Figure 9) Final calculated Power Loss = 2.2W x 1.0 x 0.98 x 1.17 x 1.06 2.67W Calculating SOA Adjustments * * * * * SOA adjustment for input voltage 0C (Figure 7) SOA adjustment for output voltage -0.29C (Figure 8) SOA adjustment for switching frequency 4.1C (Figure 6) SOA adjustment for output inductor 1.5C (Figure 9) Final calculated SOA adjustment = 0 + (-0.29) + 4.1 + 1.5 5.3C In the design example above, the estimated power loss of the CSD87330Q3D would increase to 2.67W. In addition, the maximum allowable board and/or ambient temperature would have to decrease by 5.3C. Figure 33 graphically shows how the SOA curve would be adjusted accordingly. 1. Start by drawing a horizontal line from the application current to the SOA curve. 2. Draw a vertical line from the SOA curve intercept down to the board/ambient temperature. 3. Adjust the SOA board/ambient temperature by subtracting the temperature adjustment value. In the design example, the SOA temperature adjustment yields a reduction in allowable board/ambient temperature of 5.3C. In the event the adjustment value is a negative number, subtracting the negative number would yield an increase in allowable board/ambient temperature. 25 Output Current (A) 20 1 15 10 VGS = 5V VIN = 12V VOUT = 1.3V fSW = 500kHz LOUT = 1mH 5 2 3 0 0 20 40 60 80 100 Board Temperature (C) 120 140 G028 Figure 33. Power Block SOA 12 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2011, Texas Instruments Incorporated CSD87330Q3D SLPS284B - AUGUST 2011 - REVISED SEPTEMBER 2011 www.ti.com RECOMMENDED PCB DESIGN OVERVIEW There are two key system-level parameters that can be addressed with a proper PCB design: Electrical and Thermal performance. Properly optimizing the PCB layout will yield maximum performance in both areas. A brief description on how to address each parameter is provided. Electrical Performance The Power Block has the ability to switch voltages at rates greater than 10kV/s. Special care must be then taken with the PCB layout design and placement of the input capacitors, Driver IC, and output inductor. * The placement of the input capacitors relative to the Power Block's VIN and PGND pins should have the highest priority during the component placement routine. It is critical to minimize these node lengths. As such, ceramic input capacitors need to be placed as close as possible to the VIN and PGND pins (see Figure 34). The example in Figure 34 uses 6 x 10-F ceramic capacitors (TDK Part # C3216X5R1C106KT or equivalent). Notice there are ceramic capacitors on both sides of the board with an appropriate amount of vias interconnecting both layers. In terms of priority of placement next to the Power Block, C5, C7, C19, and C8 should follow in order. * The Driver IC should be placed relatively close to the Power Block Gate pins. TG and BG should connect to the outputs of the Driver IC. The TGR pin serves as the return path of the high-side gate drive circuitry and should be connected to the Phase pin of the IC (sometimes called LX, LL, SW, PH, etc.). The bootstrap capacitor for the Driver IC will also connect to this pin. * The switching node of the output inductor should be placed relatively close to the Power Block VSW pins. Minimizing the node length between these two components will reduce the PCB conduction losses and actually reduce the switching noise level. In the event the switch node waveform exhibits ringing that reaches undesirable levels, the use of a Boost Resistor or RC snubber can be an effective way to easily reduce the peak ring level. The recommended Boost Resistor value will range between 1.0 Ohms to 4.7 Ohms depending on the output characteristics of Driver IC used in conjunction with the Power Block. The RC snubber values can range from 0.5 Ohms to 2.2 Ohms for the R and 330pF to 2200pF for the C. Please refer to TI App Note SLUP100 for more details on how to properly tune the RC snubber values. The RC snubber should be placed as close as possible to the Vsw node and PGND see Figure 34 (1) (1) Keong W.

As such, the use of thermal vias is an effective way to pull away heat from the device and into the system board. Concerns of solder voids and manufacturability problems can be addressed by the use of three basic tactics to minimize the amount of solder attach that will wick down the via barrel: * Intentionally space out the vias from each other to avoid a cluster of holes in a given area. * Use the smallest drill size allowed in your design. The example in Figure 34 uses vias with a 10 mil drill hole and a 16 mil capture pad. * Tent the opposite side of the via with solder-mask. In the end, the number and drill size of the thermal vias should align with the end user's PCB design rules and manufacturing capabilities. Figure 34.
