Rectifier (PWM) Controller and Output
Voltage Monitor
The HIP6002 provides complete control and protection for a
DC-DC converter optimized for high-performance
microprocessor applications. It is designed to drive two
N-Channel MOSFETs in a synchronous-rectified buck
topology. The HIP6002 integrates all of the control, output
adjustment, monitoring and protection functions into a single
package.
The output voltage of the converter is easily adjusted and
precisely regulated. The HIP6002 includes a 4-Input
Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) that adjusts the output
voltage from 2.0VDC to 3.5VDC in 0.1V increments. The
precision reference and voltage-mode regulator hold the
selected output voltage to within
±1%
over temperature and
line voltage variations.
The HIP6002 provides simple, single feedback loop, voltage-
mode control with fast transient response. It includes a
200kHz free-running triangle-wave oscillator that is
adjustable from below 50kHz to over 1MHz. The error
amplifier features a 15MHz gain-bandwidth product and
6V/µs slew rate which enables high converter bandwidth for
fast transient performance. The resulting PWM duty ratio
ranges from 0% to 100%.
The HIP6002 monitors the output voltage with a window
comparator that tracks the DAC output and issues a Power
Good signal when the output is within
±10%.
The HIP6002
protects against over-current conditions by inhibiting PWM
operation. Built-in over-voltage protection triggers an
external SCR to crowbar the input supply. The HIP6002
monitors the current by using the r
DS(ON)
of the upper
MOSFET which eliminates the need for a current sensing
resistor.

VID0-3 (Pins 4-7)
VID0-3 are the input pins to the 4-bit DAC. The states of
these four pins program the internal voltage reference
(DACOUT). The level of DACOUT sets the converter output
voltage. It also sets the PGOOD and OVP thresholds. Table
1 specifies DACOUT for the 16 combinations of DAC inputs.
EN (Pin 8)
This pin is the open-collector enable pin. Pull this pin below
1V to disable the converter. In shutdown, the soft start pin is
discharged and the UGATE pin is held low.
COMP (Pin 9) and FB (Pin 10)
COMP and FB are the available external pins of the error
amplifier. The FB pin is the inverting input of the error
amplifier and the COMP pin is the error amplifier output.
These pins are used to compensate the voltage-control
feedback loop of the converter.
FB 10
VSEN (Pin 1)
This pin is connected to the converters output voltage. The
PGOOD and OVP comparator circuits use this signal to
report output voltage status and for overvoltage protection.
GND (Pin 11)
Signal ground for the IC. All voltage levels are measured with
respect to this pin.
OCSET (Pin 2)
Connect a resistor (R
OCSET
) from this pin to the drain of the
upper MOSFET. R
OCSET
, an internal 200µA current source
(I
OCS
), and the upper MOSFET on-resistance (r
DS(ON)
) set
the converter over-current (OC) trip point according to the
following equation:

PGOOD (Pin 12)
PGOOD is an open collector output used to indicate the
status of the converter output voltage. This pin is pulled low
when the converter output is not within
±10%
of the
DACOUT reference voltage.
PHASE (Pin 13)
Connect the PHASE pin to the upper MOSFET source. This
input pin is used to monitor the voltage drop across the
MOSFET for over-current protection. This pin also provide
the return path for the upper gate drive.
An over-current trip cycles the soft-start function.
SS (Pin 3)
Connect a capacitor from this pin to ground. This capacitor,
along with an internal 10µA current source, sets the soft-
start interval of the converter.
UGATE (Pin 14)
Connect UGATE to the upper MOSFET gate. This pin
provides the gate drive for the upper MOSFET.

HIP6002
BOOT (Pin 15)
This pin provides bias voltage to the upper MOSFET driver.
A bootstrap circuit may be used to create a BOOT voltage
suitable to drive a standard N-Channel MOSFET.
Soft Start
The POR function initiates the soft start sequence. An
internal 10µA current source charges an external capacitor
(C
SS
) on the SS pin to 4V. Soft start clamps the error
amplifier output (COMP pin) and reference input (+
terminal of error amp) to the SS pin voltage. Figure 3
shows the soft start interval with C
SS
= 0.1µF. Initially the
clamp on the error amplifier (COMP pin) controls the
converter’s output voltage. At t1 in Figure 3, the SS voltage
reaches the valley of the oscillator’s triangle wave. The
oscillator’s triangular waveform is compared to the ramping
error amplifier voltage. This generates PHASE pulses of
increasing width that charge the output capacitor(s). This
interval of increasing pulse width continues to t2 . With
sufficient output voltage, the clamp on the reference input
controls the output voltage. This is the interval between t2
and t3 in Figure 3. At t3 the SS voltage exceeds the
DACOUT voltage and the output voltage is in regulation.
This method provides a rapid and controlled output voltage
rise. The PGOOD signal toggles ‘high’ when the output
voltage (VSEN pin) is with in
±5%
of DACOUT. The 2%
hysteresis built into the power good comparators prevents
PGOOD oscillation due to nominal output voltage ripple.
PGND (Pin 16)
This is the power ground connection. Tie the lower MOSFET
source to this pin.
LGATE (Pin 17)
Connect LGATE to the lower MOSFET gate. This pin
provides the gate drive for the lower MOSFET.
VCC (Pin 18)
Provide a 12V bias supply for the chip to this pin.
OVP (Pin 19)
The OVP pin can be used to drive an external SCR in the
event of an overvoltage condition.
RT (Pin 20)
This pin provides oscillator switching frequency adjustment.
By placing a resistor (R
T
) from this pin to GND, the nominal
200kHz switching frequency is increased according to the
following equation:

Functional Description
Initialization
The HIP6002 automatically initializes upon receipt of power.
Special sequencing of the input supplies is not necessary.
The Power-On Reset (POR) function continually monitors
the input supply voltages and the enable (EN) pin. The POR
monitors the bias voltage at the VCC pin and the input
voltage (V
IN
) on the OCSET pin. The level on OCSET is
equal to V
IN
less a fixed voltage drop (see over-current
protection). With the EN pin held to V
CC
, the POR function
initiates soft start operation after both input supply voltages
exceed their POR thresholds. For operation with a single
+12V power source, V
IN
and V
CC
are equivalent and the
+12V power source must exceed the rising V
CC
threshold
before POR initiates operation.
The Power-On Reset (POR) function inhibits operation with
the chip disabled (EN pin low). With both input supplies
above their POR thresholds, transitioning the EN pin high
initiates a soft start interval.
FIGURE 3. SOFT START INTERVAL
Over-Current Protection
The over-current function protects the converter from a
shorted output by using the upper MOSFET’s on-resistance,
r
DS(ON)
to monitor the current. This method enhances the
converter’s efficiency and reduces cost by eliminating a
current sensing resistor.
The over-current function cycles the soft-start function in a
hiccup mode to provide fault protection. A resistor (R
OCSET
)
programs the over-current trip level. An internal 200µA current
sink develops a voltage across R
OCSET
that is referenced to
V
IN
. When the voltage across the upper MOSFET (also
referenced to V
IN
) exceeds the voltage across R
OCSET
, the
over-current function initiates a soft-start sequence. The soft-
start function discharges C
SS
with a 10µA current sink and
