EM5301F/G

Functional Description

EM5301F/G is a voltage mode synchronous buck

PWM controller. This device provides complete

protection function such as over current protection,

under

voltage

protection

and

over

voltage

protection.

Supply Voltage

control circuit, as well as lower MOSFET’s gate and

the BOOT voltage for the upper MOSFET’s gate. A

minimum 0.1uF ceramic capacitor is recommended

to bypass the supply voltage.

Power ON Reset

must be higher than its POR voltage even when

REFIN voltage is pulled higher than enable high

voltage. Typical POR voltage is 8.8V.

Shutdown

The COMP/SD pin can be used to enable or disable

EM5301F/G. Pull down COMP/SD pin below 0.2V

can disable the controller.

Soft Start

EM5301F/G provides soft start function internally.

The FB voltage will track the internal soft start

signal, which ramps up from zero during soft start

period.

OCP, Over Current Protection

The over current function protects the converter

from a shorted output by using lower MOSFET’s

on-resistance to monitor the current. The OCP level

can be calculated as the following equation:

When OCP is triggered, EM5301F/G will shut down

the converter and cycles the soft start function in a

hiccup mode. If over current condition still exist

after 3 times of hiccup, EM5301F/G will shut down

the controller and latch.

UVP, Under Voltage Protection

The FB voltage is monitored for under voltage

protection. The UVP threshold is typical 0.6V.

When UVP is triggered, EM5301F/G will shut down

the converter and cycles the soft start function in a

hiccup mode.

OVP, Over Voltage Protection

The FB voltage is monitored for over voltage

protection. The OVP threshold is typical 1.04V.

When OVP is triggered, EM5301F/G will turn off

upper MOSFET and turn on lower MOSFET.

Feedback Compensation

The goal of the compensation network is to

provide a closed loop transfer function with

adequate phase margin.
