Introduction to Product

The LX7165 is a digitally controlled step-down regulator IC with an integrated 30mΩ high-side P-

channel MOSFET and a 10mΩ low-side N-channel MOSFET. It features Microsemi’s proprietary

constant-frequency hysteretic control engine for near-instantaneous correction to sudden line/load

transients. It does not require high-ESR output capacitors and incorporates energy-saving “PSM”

(Power Saving or Pulse Skip Mode) at light loads, to extend battery life in mobile applications.

The LX7165 has an I2C serial interface port for output voltage margining and monitoring if

required (it can operate in default mode too). It includes robust fault monitoring functions.

The LX7165 will operate from 3V to 5.5V, and is available in several fixed output voltage options

from 0.6V to 0.97V (no voltage divider is necessary). Each version’s output voltage can also be

made adjustable with use of an external voltage divider.

LX7165 I2C GUI

Figure 4 LX7165 GUI

LX7165 I2C GUI is a graphic user interface that can read/write IC status or change default

settings via I2C serial portal. For example, it can used to enable/disable device, change output

voltage, or enable power saving mode, etc.

More information about register map and I2C function can be found in LX7165 datasheet.

Note: To use this GUI, a SUB-20 USB-I2C adaptor is needed. See Dimax SUB-20 and LX7165

GUI Installation for details.

Enabling Regulator from I2C Bus

In addition to the ENABLE pin, the regulator can be enabled and disabled via the I2C bus by

programming the control register. During disable, the regulator and most of the support circuitry

is turned off. However, the I2C bus circuitry is still active and maybe programmed.

Setting the Output Voltage

Only use I2C interface can adjust VOUT from 0.6V to 1.2V. When I2C interface is implemented,

the reference voltage is programmed with the I2C bus VSEL register value.

Where NSEL is the decimal value of the 7 VSEL bits.

In case a higher output voltage is needed, it must be programmed through an external resistor

divider connected from SW to VOUT then to GND. For noise immunity, the lower resistor R2

from VOUT to GND should be greater than 100kOhm. A feed-forward capacitor C9 in parallel

with upper resistor is needed to ensure loop stability. Recommend C9=33pF. The formula below

gives the value of VOUT.



VREF is determined by the chip, for example, to set LX7165-03CSP VOUT = 1.83V, given

VREF = 0.97V. First pick the lower resistor R2=150k, calculate the upper resistor R1=133k, and

C9=33pF.

PCB Layout of Evaluation Board

The LX7165 EVAL Board is a 4-layer board, the thickness of the board is 63mil in total. The

second layer to top layer is 7mil, the third layer to the bottom layer is 7mil. There’s no

microvias or blind vias needed, each signal can leave the LX7165 directly without using any

via under the device. And, it can lower the ESL with the bypass capacitors C2, C3 and C9

implemented. C4 is only needed when there’s long wires connected.
