The ZCC7890 uses an internal PWM controller and driver circuit to precisely control a dual-phase buck converter. It dynamically adjusts the switching frequency and duty cycle based on the input voltage and load current to achieve high-efficiency power conversion. Additionally, the ZCC7890 includes multiple protection features, such as overcurrent protection, overvoltage protection, and undervoltage lockout, ensuring safe and reliable operation under various conditions.

6. Design Considerations****

· PCB Layout: It is recommended to place the top N-channel MOSFETs close to the input capacitors to minimize parasitic inductance and resistance. Also, ensure that all high-speed switching nodes (e.g., SW1, SW2) are kept away from sensitive feedback signal nodes.

· Capacitor Selection: Use low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) ceramic or solid-state capacitors for input and output capacitors to improve the power supply's dynamic response and stability.

· Driver Power Supply: The DRVCC pin should be connected to INTVCC via a separate trace, and a 4.7µF to 10µF ceramic capacitor should be placed between INTVCC and GND to ensure stable driver power supply.

7. Typical Applications****

· Dual-Phase Buck Converter: By properly configuring the pins and external components of the ZCC7890, a high-efficiency, high-power-density dual-phase buck converter can be implemented, suitable for various power supply applications.
