Product details
Overview
FAN48630BUC315X from onsemi is a synchronous boost regulator with integrated power switches, designed for single-cell Li-ion battery systems requiring 3.15 V / 3.33 V fixed output, 2.5 MHz switching, 1500 mA load capability at VIN ≥ 2.35 V, and true bypass operation when VIN exceeds VOUT. It enables brownout prevention and USB OTG power in space-constrained portable devices.
For engineers reviewing the FAN48630BUC315X datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its backside-laminated WLCSP16 package, forced bypass mode with <10 µA quiescent current, valley-current limiting architecture, and compatibility with 0.47 µH inductors and 0603 capacitors.
Technical Context
The FAN48630BUC315X implements current-mode control in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) at ~2.5 MHz, transitioning to Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM) at light loads to maintain efficiency. Its valley-current limit is 2.6–3.1 A, with soft-start ramping enabled via internal reference stepping.
Bypass entry occurs automatically when VIN > VOUT_TARGET + 25 mV (25 mV hysteresis), using linear current sourcing for first 5 s to minimize transients; forced bypass is activated by pulling BYP low, disabling most circuitry for ultra-low IQ (<10 µA). Power Good (PG) signals regulation status and faults including thermal shutdown (>120 °C) and overload.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.15 V / 3.33 V - dual-target setting selected via VSEL; ensures stable rail for RF power stages and audio codecs. |
| Max Load Current | 1500 mA at VIN = 2.6 V → VOUT = 3.5 V - supports peak LTE/3G transmit bursts without dropout. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.0–3.0 MHz (typ. 2.5 MHz) - enables use of tiny 0.47 µH inductors and minimizes EMI in noise-sensitive RF sections. |
| Quiescent Current | 4–10 µA in Forced Bypass Mode - extends battery life during system sleep states with no external discharge path. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.35 V to 5.5 V - accommodates full Li-ion discharge curve (4.2 V → 2.8 V) while supporting USB 5 V input. |
| Package | 16-bump WLCSP, 1.78 × 1.78 × 0.586 mm - ultra-compact footprint with backside lamination for enhanced mechanical reliability in thin mobile PCBs. |
| Protection Features | UVLO (2.20–2.35 V), OVP (6.0–6.3 V), thermal shutdown (150 °C), short-circuit detection - prevents damage during battery fault or load surge. |
Pinout & Package
Package: Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP), 16-bump, 0.4 mm pitch, 1.78 × 1.78 × 0.586 mm, backside laminated per ordering note.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | EN | Enable input (1.2 V VIH, 0.4 V VIL); must be driven by logic-level signal - not connected to VIN to avoid startup failure. |
| A2 | PG | Open-drain Power Good flag; pulled low on fault (overload, thermal >120 °C) or regulation loss - used for system sequencing and watchdog reset. |
| A3–A4 | VIN | Main input supply (2.35–5.5 V); connects directly to Li-ion battery or USB input - requires local 4.7 µF decoupling. |
| B1 | VSEL | Output voltage select; asserts fixed 3.33 V target when high - enables dynamic headroom optimization before load transients. |
| B2, C2, D1 | AGND | Analog ground reference for internal comparators and reference - isolated from PGND to reduce noise coupling into feedback loop. |
| B3–B4 | VOUT | Regulated output (3.15/3.33 V); connects to load with minimal trace length - COUT must be placed adjacent to these pins and PGND. |
| C1 | BYP | Forced bypass control; pulled low to enter ultra-low-IQ bypass state - disables switching and activates low-RDS(ON) P-channel path (65–85 mΩ). |
| C3–C4 | SW | Switching node; connects to inductor - high di/dt node requiring shortest possible routing and no vias to minimize EMI and losses. |
| D2–D4 | PGND | Power ground return for SW and output capacitor - tied directly to thermal pad and internal ground plane with multiple vias for thermal dissipation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| True Bypass Operation | Enables direct VIN-to-VOUT conduction when VIN > VOUT_TARGET + 25 mV, reducing voltage drop to <100 mV at 1.5 A and eliminating switching losses. |
| Synchronous Rectification | Integrates N-channel boost switch (85–120 mΩ) and P-channel sync rectifier (65–85 mΩ), achieving up to 96% efficiency at 1 A with 3.5 V output. |
| Soft-Start with Load Disconnect | Prevents inrush current via controlled reference ramp and true output disconnect during startup - avoids brownout on shared battery rails. |
| VSEL-Controlled Output Target | Allows dynamic adjustment between 3.15 V and 3.33 V output targets in <20 µs, mitigating undershoot during line transients while minimizing idle power. |
| Backside Lamination | Enhanced mechanical robustness for 0.4 mm pitch WLCSP - reduces risk of bump cracking during board flexure or thermal cycling in smartphones and wearables. |

FAQ
What is the purpose of the BYP pin on the FAN48630BUC315X?
The BYP pin on the FAN48630BUC315X enables Forced Bypass Mode when pulled low. In this state, the device disables switching and activates low-RDS(ON) P-channel bypass switches (65–85 mΩ), reducing quiescent current to 4–10 µA. This mode is critical for extending battery life during system sleep, and FAN48630BUC315X maintains reverse-current blocking and VIN-to-VOUT conduction without regulation overhead.
How does the FAN48630BUC315X handle input voltage transitions near the output voltage?
The FAN48630BUC315X uses 25 mV hysteresis on its automatic bypass threshold: it enters Bypass Mode when VIN > VOUT_TARGET + 25 mV and exits when VIN falls below VOUT_TARGET. This prevents oscillation during voltage droop or recovery. The transition is softened via 5 s linear current sourcing through Q3, ensuring smooth handoff without output glitches - a behavior confirmed in Figure 27 of the FAN48630BUC315X datasheet.
Can the FAN48630BUC315X operate with a 0.33 µH inductor?
Yes - the FAN48630BUC315X supports 0.33 µH inductors for improved transient response, as explicitly permitted for FAN48630BUC315X and related variants in the Application Information section. Using 0.33 µH reduces output voltage deviation during 500–1250 mA load steps (Figure 21), though peak inductor current rises to ~3.8 A under overload, requiring saturation-rated magnetics.
What is the significance of backside lamination for the FAN48630BUC315X?
Backside lamination in the FAN48630BUC315X enhances mechanical integrity of its 0.4 mm pitch WLCSP package, reducing susceptibility to bump fracture during PCB flexure, drop testing, or thermal cycling. This feature is explicitly called out for FAN48630BUC315X in the ordering row and improves field reliability in thin-profile smartphones and IoT wearables where board stress is common.
Does the FAN48630BUC315X provide power-good signaling?
Yes - the FAN48630BUC315X features an open-drain PG pin that goes high-impedance when regulation is achieved and remains asserted unless a fault occurs. PG is pulled low during overload, thermal events (>120 °C), or regulation loss, providing real-time system monitoring. This signal is essential for safe power sequencing in multi-rail portable devices using the FAN48630BUC315X.
