DESCRIPTION
The IRU3138 controller IC is designed to provide a low
cost synchronous Buck regulator for voltage tracking
applications such DDR memory and general purpose
on-board DC to DC converter. Modern micro processors
combined with DDR memory, need high-speed bandwidth
data bus which requires a particular bus termination volt-
age. This voltage will be tightly regulated to track the
half of chipset voltage for best performance. The IRU3138
together with two N-channel MOSFETs, provide a low
cost solution for such applications. This device features
a programmable frequency set from 200KHz to 400KHz,
under-voltage lockout for both Vcc and Vc supplies, an
external programmable soft-start function as well as
output under-voltage detection that latches off the de-
vice when an output short is detected.

IRU3138
THEORY OF OPERATION
Introduction
The IRU3138 is a fixed frequency, voltage mode syn-
chronous controller and consists of a precision refer-
ence voltage, an error amplifier, an internal oscillator, a
PWM comparator, 1A peak gate driver, soft-start and
shutdown circuits (see Block Diagram). The output volt-
age of the synchronous converter is set and controlled
by the output of the error amplifier; this is the amplified
error signal from the sensed output voltage and the refer-
ence voltage. This voltage is compared to a fixed fre-
quency linear sawtooth ramp and generates fixed fre-
www.DataSheet4U.comquency pulses of variable duty-cycle, which drives the
two N-channel external MOSFETs.The timing of the IC
is provided through an internal oscillator circuit which
uses on-chip capacitor. The oscillation frequency is pro-
grammable between 200KHz to 400KHz by using an
external resistor. Figure 4A shows switching frequency
vs. external resistor.
The magnitude of this current is inversely proportional to
the voltage at soft-start pin.
The 20mA current source starts to charge up the exter-
nal capacitor. In the mean time, the soft-start voltage
ramps up, the current flowing into Fb pin starts to de-
crease linearly and so does the voltage at the positive
pin of feedback UVLO comparator and the voltage nega-
tive input of E/A.
When the soft-start capacitor is around 1V, the current
flowing into the Fb pin is approximately 32mA. The volt-
age at the positive input of the E/A is approximately:
32mA325K = 0.8V
The E/A will start to operate and the output voltage starts
to increase. As the soft-start capacitor voltage contin-
ues to go up, the current flowing into the Fb pin will keep
decreasing. Because the voltage at pin of E/A is regu-
lated to reference voltage 0.8V, the voltage at the Fb is:
Soft-Start
The IRU3138 has a programmable soft-start to control
the output voltage rise and limit the current surge at the
start-up. To ensure correct start-up, the soft-start se-
quence initiates when the Vc and Vcc rise above their
threshold (3.5V and 4.25V respectively) and generates
the Power On Reset (POR) signal. Soft-start function
operates by sourcing an internal current to charge an
external capacitor to about 3V. Initially, the soft-start func-
tion clamps the E/A’s output of the PWM converter and
disables the short circuit protection. During the power
up, the output starts at zero and voltage at Fb is below
0.4V. The feedback UVLO is disabled during this time
by injecting a current (64mA) into the Fb. This generates
a voltage about 1.6V (64mA325K) across the negative
input of E/A and positive input of the feedback UVLO
comparator (see Fig3).

VFB = 0.8-25K3(Injected Current)
The feedback voltage increases linearly as the injecting
current goes down. The injecting current drops to zero
when soft-start voltage is around 2V and the output volt-
age goes into steady state.
As shown in Figure 4, the positive pin of feedback UVLO
comparator is always higher than 0.4V, therefore, feed-
back UVLO is not functional during soft-start.
