　　ROHM has developed 45V rated 500mA output primary LDO regulators: BD9xxM5-C (BD933M5EFJ-C / BD950M5EFJ-C / BD900M5EFJ-C / BD933M5WEFJ-C / BD950M5WEFJ-C / BD900M5WEFJ-C). These devices are suitable for supplying power to automotive electronic components such as ECUs that operate from vehicle batteries.

ROHM Develops Automotive Primary LDOs: Leveraging Original QuiCur™ Technology to Achieve Industry-Leading* Load Response Characteristics

　　In recent years, the number of onboard power supply system and functions continues to grow as electrification in the automotive industry progresses. This increases the demand for primary LDOs that can directly step down the battery voltage to MCUs and other components used in ECUs. However, the energy supplied by the vehicle’s lead-acid battery is often subject to sudden voltage fluctuations, which primary LDOs are required to provide with excellent line-transient response in these conditions.

　　At the same time, ECUs and other downstream devices often experience load current variations during operation, that also demand excellent load-transient response characteristics. A high frequency response is essential for fast output voltage recovery, but it has been difficult to provide sufficient phase margin at the same time to ensure stable operation. In response, ROHM developed a novel solution that addresses these challenges.

　　The BD9xxM5-C incorporates original QuiCur™ high-speed load response technology that delivers excellent response characteristics to load current fluctuations. For example, the LDO can maintain output to within 100mV of set voltage even as the load changes between 0 and 500mA in 1μs (Rise time/Fall time). Furthermore, low 9.5µA (typ.) current consumption contributes to lower power consumption in automotive applications. These new products will be available in four packages, ranging from the compact HTSOP-J8 to the high heat dissipation TO252 (TO252-3/TO252-5) and HRP5 types. This allows users to select the most suitable package for each use case.

ROHM Develops Automotive Primary LDOs: Leveraging Original QuiCur™ Technology to Achieve Industry-Leading* Load Response Characteristics

　　Going forward, ROHM will continue to improve reliability while reducing power consumption in automotive applications by developing products utilizing its strengths in analog and other technologies.

　　Product LineupThe new BD9xxM5-C meets the basic requirements for automotive products, including 150°C operation and qualification under the AEC-Q100 automotive reliability standard. A wide range of packages will be available to select from depending on the application environment, all featuring excellent response performance and low current consumption using proprietary QuiCur™ technology.

　　The lineup will be expanded to comprise a total of 18 models, (including the TO252-3, TO252-5, and HRP5 packages) by FY2024.

　　Application ExamplesSuitable for a wide range of automotive applications such as ECUs that operate on vehicle primary power supply systems.

　　• Powertrain: Fuel Injection (FI), Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

　　• Body systems: Body Control Modules

　　• Infotainment: Instrument Clusters, Head-Up Displays (HUDs)

　　QuiCur™ High-Speed Load Response TechnologyQuiCur™ is the name of ROHM’s proprietary ‘Quick Current’ high-speed load response circuit capable of maximizing load response characteristics (response performance) without causing instability in the feedback circuits of power supply ICs.

　　Stable operation of the power supply IC is also possible with minimal output capacitance. And in the case of switching regulators, which are a type of power supply IC, it is possible to linearly adjust the capacitance and output voltage fluctuation to easily achieve stable operation even when the capacitance is changed due to specification changes, significantly reducing the number of person-hours required for power circuit design - both in terms of decreasing component count and ensuring stable operation.

　　TerminologyPrimary

　　In a power supply circuit, the side in charge of 1st stage conversion from a power source such as a battery is called the primary and the side responsible for 2nd stage conversion referred to as the secondary.

　　LDO Regulator (Low Drop Out/Low Saturation Regulator)

　　A type of power supply IC that converts between two different DC voltage levels. Falls under the category of linear regulator (where the input/output voltages operate linearly) characterized by a small input-output voltage difference. Compared to DC-DC converter ICs (switching regulators), LDOs feature a simpler circuit configuration and lower noise.

　　Load Current

　　From the point of view of the power supply ICs, all electronic circuits in the subsequent stages, including MCUs and sensors, can be considered “loads”. When these loads operate, a (load) current flows, causing the output voltage of the power supply IC to undershoot (drop) or overshoot. Load transient response characteristics refer to the response time until the changed voltage due to load current is restored and the power supply stabilizes.

ROHM’s New Energy-Saving DC-DC Converter ICs Offered in the TSOT23 Package

　　ROHM has developed four new compact DC-DC step-down converter ICs suitable for consumer and industrial applications, including refrigerators, washing machines, PLCs, and inverters. ROHM is expanding the lineup which includes the BD9E203FP4-Z, a 2A buck converter with switching frequency of 350kHz.　　In recent years, increasing application functionality in consumer devices and industrial equipment is driving the demand to minimize board space, resulting in a rise in the adoption rate of compact DC-DC converter ICs.　　Furthermore, as reducing standby power consumption is becoming a significant challenge, there is a growing need for DC-DC converter ICs to deliver higher efficiency during light load (low power) conditions. To meet these demands, ROHM developed products that achieve higher efficiency in an even smaller package than existing SOP-J8 (JEDEC standard: SOIC8 equivalent) products.　　The new converter ICs deliver an output current of 1A to 3A in the compact TSOT23 package (2.8mm × 2.9mm). This reduces component area by up to 72% compared to the general SOP-J8 package (4.9mm × 6.0mm), contributing to the miniaturization of power supply blocks. On top, adopting a flip chip on lead frame TSOT23 package design enables high-efficiency operation by eliminating bond wire resistance.　　The BD9E105FP4-Z, BD9E202FP4-Z, and BD9E304FP4-LBZ also utilize a COT control mode during light load operation. As a result, efficiency during light load operation is improved over standard products, making them ideal for applications requiring low standby power consumption.　　Going forward, ROHM will continue to focus on developing products that leverage analog design technologies, contributing to greater miniaturization and energy efficiency in consumer and industrial equipment applications.　　Application Examples3.3V/5V/12V/24V power supply applications　　Consumer Appliances:　　Refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners, etc.　　Industrial Equipment:　　PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers), inverters, AC servos, etc.　　Online Sales InformationSales Start Date: March 2024 (in succession)　　Pricing: $3.0/unit (samples, excluding tax)　　Online Distributors: DigiKey, Mouser and Farnell　　The products will be offered at other online distributors as they become available.　　Product Information　　In addition to the ICs, evaluation boards together with various support tools are available that enable immediate evaluation during application design.　　Various Support Tools• Calculation Sheet：A calculation tool for application circuits that facilitates external constant design. By setting values as described, users will be able to determine the circuit parameters that satisfy the desired characteristics.　　The sheet is available for download from the ‘Tools’ section on each product page on ROHM’s website.　　[BD9E105FP4-Z / BD9E304FP4-LBZ / BD9A201FP4-LBZ]　　• ROHM Solution Simulator：A free simulation tool that runs on ROHM’s website. Changing the external constants in the topology described in the datasheet allows the optimal solution for frequency response (for a power supply) to be considered.　　[BD9E105FP4-Z / BD9E202FP4-Z / BD9E304FP4-LBZ / BD9A201FP4-LBZ]　　*Logging in to MyROHM is required to use the tool.　　• Other Content: SPICE models for circuit simulation along with application notes that contain useful information on thermal design, circuit design, and verification can also be downloaded from each product page.　　TerminologyCOT (Constant ON Time) Control Method　　A feedback circuit control method for stabilizing the output voltage. When the feedback voltage drops below the reference voltage, the switching element turns ON, then automatically turns OFF after a fixed time has elapsed. This enables stable output to be efficiently obtained at light loads.　　Spurious　　Unnecessary electromagnetic waves that deviate from the originally required predetermined frequency.　　Overshoot Prevention Function　　If the output current of the power supply IC exceeds the expected value, the output is shut down by the OCP (overcurrent protection) function. When recovering from a shutdown, a momentary overshoot (excessive output voltage) occurs, causing a delay in recovery, so it is necessary to expedite recovery and suppress overshoot.　　ESD (Electrostatic Discharge)　　Static electricity (surge) is generated when electrically charged objects come into contact with each other. This static electricity (surge) may cause circuits and equipment to malfunction or destruction.　　EMI (Electromagnetic Interference)　　EMI is used as an indicator for how much noise is generated when operating the target product, which may cause problems in surrounding ICs and systems. ‘Good EMI characteristics’ mean that less noise is generated.

ROHM Develops a New Op Amp that Minimizes Current Consumption

　　ROHM has developed a linear operational amplifier (op amp) - LMR1901YG-M - featuring the lowest* current consumption in the industry. This makes it ideal for amplifying sensor signals used to detect and measure temperature, flow rate, gas concentration, and other parameters in applications powered by internal sources (i.e. batteries).　　In recent years, advanced control has been in increasing demand for various applications in consumer and industrial electronics. Therefore, there is an increasing need for accurate sensing of parameters relevant to the application - such as, temperature, humidity, vibration, pressure, and flow rate. Op amps whose main function is to amplify sensor signals for subsequent detection and/or analog-to-digital conversion, is a crucial component in the signal chain - greatly affecting both accuracy and power consumption. ROHM is developing op amps that satisfy the dual need for high accuracy and low current consumption. By further refining the circuit design based on original Nano Energy™ technology, ROHM is now able to offer an op amp that delivers the lowest current consumption on the market.　　The LMR1901YG-M leverages original ultra-low power technology that thoroughly suppresses current increase caused by temperature and voltage changes to reduce current consumption to just 160nA (Typ.) - approximately 38% lower than that of general low power op amps. This not only extends the life of applications powered by internal batteries like electronic shelf labels, but also contributes to longer operating times for smartphones and other devices equipped with rechargeable batteries. At the same time, this low current consumption does not change over the temperature range of -40°C to +105°C - allowing stable low-power operation, even in environments where external temperatures fluctuate, including fire alarms and environmental sensors.　　Other performance enhancements include 45% reduction of input offset voltage to just 0.55mV (Max. Ta=25°C) over general low-current op amps while a maximum input offset voltage temperature drift of 7V/°C is guaranteed. This enabling high accuracy amplification of sensor signals. Capable of operating from 1.7V to 5.5V supply voltage and offering rail-to-rail input/output, LMR1901YG-M is suitable for a wide variety of applications in the industrial equipment and consumer markets. ROHM’s new op amp also complies with the automotive reliability standard AEC-Q100 - ensuring stable operation even under harsh conditions such as vehicle cabins without compromising functionality.　　In addition to various technical documents necessary for circuit design and SPICE models for simulation (available free of charge on ROHM’s website), the LMR1901YG-M can be used with ROHM Solution Simulator to speed up time to market.　　Going forward, ROHM will continue to pursue further power savings in op amps using proprietary ultra-low power technology. On top, ROHM aims to improve the performance of op amp lineups by reducing noise and offset - increasing power savings and expanding the power supply voltage range while contributing to solving social issues through higher accuracy application control.　　Application Examples• Consumer applications: smartphones, smartwatches, wearables, fire alarms, motion sensors, etc.　　• Industrial equipment: electronic shelf labels (ESL), handheld measurement instruments, data loggers, environmental sensors for IoT, etc.　　• Automotive systems: anti-theft sensors, drive recorders, etc.　　Online Sales InformationSales Launch Date: November 2023　　Pricing: $4.0/unit (samples, excluding tax)　　Online Distributors: DigiKey, Mouser and Farnell　　The products will be offered at other online distributors as they become available.。　　Product Information　　Applicable Part No: LMR1901YG-M　　Online Distributors　　What is Nano Energy™ Technology?Nano Energy™ refers to proprietary ultra-low current consumption technology that achieves a current consumption on the order of nano ampere (nA) by combining advanced analog technologies covering circuit design, layout, and processes utilizing ROHM’s vertically integrated production system.　　This contributes to not only extending the operating time of battery operated IoT and mobile devices, but also improved efficiency in industrial and automotive equipment where increased power consumption is problematic.　　*Nano Energy™ is a trademark or registered trademark of ROHM Co., Ltd.　　TerminologyInput Offset Voltage　　Refers to the error voltage that occurs between the input terminals of an op amp.　　Input Offset Voltage Temperature Drift　　The fluctuation in input offset voltage caused by a rise/fall in temperature.
