General Description
The XC9106 / 07 series are step-up DC/DC controller ICs with
an externally applied reference voltage (Vref).
Output voltage will be set with external resistors (RFB1 and 2)
and Vref value. The series make it easy to control output
voltage externally and are suited to software applications that
need to vary voltage, such as LCD power supply for PDA.
Output will be stable no matter which load capacitors are used
but if a low ESR capacitor is used, R
SENSE
of about 0.1Ω will
be required and phase compensation will be achieved. This
makes the use of ceramic capacitors much easier, and allows
for lower output ripple and reduced PCB area requirements.
Tantalum and electrolytic capacitors can also be used, in which
case, R
SENSE
becomes unnecessary.
Oscillation frequencies of high clock, low ripple 300kHz and low
supply current 100kHz are available.
The XC9107 series are PWM/PFM automatic switching
controlled. Control switches from PWM to PFM during light
loads with the XC9107 and the series is highly efficient from
light loads to large output currents. By bringing the whole circuit
down while the series is in the stand-by mode (CE/PWM pin :
low), supply current can be reduced to less than 1.0µA.

XC9106 / 07 Series
Preliminary
Operational Description
PWM Control, PWM/PFM Switching Control,
Step-up DC/DC Converters
Externally Applied Reference Voltage (Vref)
The XC9106 / 07 series are reference voltage (Vref) apply external step-up DC/DC Controler ICs. Output voltage will be set with external
resistors (RFB1 and 2) and Vref value. The series make it easy to control output voltage externally and are suited to software applications
that need to vary voltage such as LCD power supply for PDA.
<Error Amp.>
Error Amplifier is designed to monitor the output voltage, comparing the feedback voltage (FB) with the reference voltage Vref. In
response to feedback of a voltage lower than the reference voltage Vref, the output voltage of the error amp. decreases.
<OSC Generator>
This circuit generates the internal reference clock.
<Ramp Wave Generator>
The Ramp Wave Generator generates a saw-tooth waveform based on outputs from the OSC Generator.
<PWM Comparator>
The PWM Comparator compares outputs from the Error Amp. and saw-tooth waveform. When the voltage from the Error Amp's output is
low, the external switch will be set to ON.
<PWM/PFM Controler>
This circuit generates PFM pulses.
The PWM/PFM automatic switching mode switches between PWM and PFM automatically depending on the load. As the PFM circuit
generates pulses based on outputs from the PWM Comparator, shifting between modes occurs smoothly. Noise is easily reduced with
PWM control since the switching frequency is fixed. Because of the function, control suited to the application can easily be selected.
<Vref 1 with Soft Start>
The reference voltage of the XC9106/9107 series is adjusted and fixed by external applied voltage. (For output voltage settings, please
refer to the output voltage setting on page 6.)
To protect against inrush current, when the power is switched on, and also to protect against voltage overshoot, soft-start time is set
internally to 10ms. It should be noted, however, that this circuit does not protect the load capacitor (CL) from inrush current. With the Vref
voltage limited, and depending upon the input to error amp, the operation maintains a balance between the two inputs of error amps and
controls the EXT pin's ON time so that it doesn't increase more than is necessary.
The XC9106/9107 series alters soft start times by the setting value of reference voltage in order to protect against voltage overshoot and
also to protect against inrush current. Please determine soft start time by the formula equation.
TSS = 8.65 x Vref + 2.21

<Enable Function>
This function controls the operation and shutdown of the IC. When the voltage of the CE pin drops to 0.2V or less, disable mode will
be entered, the IC's operations will stop and the EXT pin will be kept at a low level (the external N-type MOSFET will be OFF) . When
the IC is in a state of chip disable, current consumption will be no more than 1.0µA.
When the CE pin's voltage rises to 0.65V or more, enable mode will be entered and operations will recommence. The CE pin also
doubles with reference voltage in the XC9106/9107 series, and the range of reference voltage can be varied externally from 0.8V to
2.5V.
