General Description
The APW7004 provides a complete control and mul-
tiple protection for a DC-DC converter optimized for
high performance microprocessor applications. It is
designed to drive two N-Channel MOSFETs in a syn-
chronous-rectified buck topology. The APW7004 in-
tegrates output voltage control, output voltage
programming, monitoring and protection functions into
a single chip IC.
The APW7004 includes a 5-bit digital-to-analog con-
verter (DAC) that provides a easily adjustable and
precisely output voltage from 2.1V
DC
to 3.5V
DC
in 0.
1 increments and from 1.3 V
DC
to 2.05 V
DC
in
0.
05V increments. Any selected output voltage can be
maintained within ±1% accuracy over temperature
and line voltage variations.
With a 200kHz free-running triangle-wave oscillator
and a error amplifier featuring a 15MHz unity-gain
bandwidth and 6V/us slew rate inside the chip,
APW7004 can implement a simple, single feedback
loop, voltage-mode control topology with high tran-
sient performance.
The APW7004 also features with multiple protections
against over-current and over-voltage conditions by
inhibiting PWM operation. The APW7004 uses the
R
DS(ON)
of the upper MOSFET as the current sensing
element which eliminates the demend for an extra
component. The APW7004 also monitors the output
voltage using a comparator with hysteresis that tracks
the DAC output and issues a Power Good signal once
the output is within ±10%.
