Detailed Description
Functional Overview
The EN5312QI is a complete DCDC converter
solution requiring only two low cost MLCC
capacitors.

efficiency, low ripple, and high performance.
The converter uses voltage mode control to
provide the simplest implementation and high
noise immunity. The device operates at a high

performance. The high switching frequency
enables the use of very small components
making possible this unprecedented level of
integration.
Enpirion’s
technology provides very low switching loss at
frequencies of 4 MHz and higher, allowing for
the use of very small internal components, and
very wide control loop bandwidth.

0.6V range. This reduces the number of
components that must be qualified and
reduces inventory burden. The VID pins can
be toggled on the fly to implement glitch free

Integrated Inductor
Enpirion has introduced the world’s first
product family featuring integrated inductors.
The EN5312QI utilizes a low loss, planar
construction inductor. The use of an internal
inductor localizes the noises associated with
the output loop currents. The inherent shielding
and compact construction of the integrated
inductor reduces the radiated noise that
couples into the traces of the circuit board.
Further, the package layout is optimized to
reduce the electrical path length for the AC
ripple currents that are a major source of
radiated emissions from DCDC converters.
The integrated inductor significantly reduces
parasitic effects that can harm loop stability,
and makes layout very simple.
Soft Start
Internal soft start circuits limit in-rush current
when the device starts up from a power down
condition or when the “ENABLE” pin is
asserted “high”. Digital control circuitry limits
the V
the Power MOSFETS and the integrated
inductor. The soft start ramp rate is nominally
1.65V/mS.
Over Current/Short Circuit Protection
The current limit function is achieved by
sensing the current flowing through a sense P-
MOSFET which is compared to a reference
current. When this level is exceeded the P-
FET is turned off and the N-FET is turned on,
pulling V
for a period of 1mS and then a normal soft start
is initiated. If the over current condition still
persists, this cycle will repeat in a “hick-up”
mode.
