There are several critical components that must be used in conjunction with this Power Stage device. Figure 16 shows a portion of a schematic with the critical components needed for proper operation.
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. Below is a brief description on how to address each parameter.
The CSD95372AQ5M has the ability to switch at voltage rates greater than 10 kV/µs. Special care must be then taken with the PCB layout design and placement of the input capacitors, inductor and output capacitors.
The CSD95372AQ5M has the ability to use the GND planes as the primary thermal path. 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:
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.
The integrated temperature sensing technology built in the driver of the CSD95372AQ5M produces an analog signal that is proportional to the temperature of the lead-frame of the device, which is almost identical to the junction temperature of the Sync FET. To calculate the junction temperature based on the TAO voltage, use Equation 2. TAO should be bypassed to PGND with a 1 nF X7R ceramic capacitor for optimal performance. The TAO pin has limited sinking current capability in order to enable several power stages that are wire OR-ed together to report only the highest temperature (or fault condition if present). In order to ensure accurate temperature reporting, the TAO nets should be routed on a quiet inner layer between ground planes where possible. In addition, the TAO bypass capacitor should have a PGND pour on the layer directly beneath to ensure proper decoupling. The TAO net should always be shielded from VSW and VIN whenever possible.
