Application Circuit COMPONENT SELECTION The values for the components used in this design example were selected for low output ripple voltage and small PCB area. Additional design information is available at www.ti.com. INPUT FILTER The input voltage is a nominal 5 VDC. The input filter C10 is a 10-F ceramic capacitor (Taiyo Yuden). C12, also a 10-F ceramic capacitor (Taiyo Yuden) provides high frequency decoupling of the TPS54810 from the input supply and must be located as close as possible to the device. Ripple current is carried in both C10 and C12, and the return path to PGND should avoid the current circulating in the output capacitors C5, C7, and C8. FEEDBACK CIRCUIT The values for these components have been selected to provide low output ripple voltage. The resistor divider network of R1 and R4 sets the output voltage for the circuit 8 at 1.8 V. R1, along with R2, R3, C1, C2, and C4 forms the loop compensation network for the circuit. For this design, a Type 3 topology is used. OPERATING FREQUENCY In the application circuit, RT is grounded through a 71.5 k resistor to select the operating frequency of 700 kHz. To set a different frequency, place a 68 k to 180 k resistor between RT (pin 28) and analog ground or leave RT floating to select the default of 350 kHz. The resistance can be approximated using the following equation: R+ 500 kHz Switching Frequency 100 [kW] (1) OUTPUT FILTER The output filter is composed of a 0.65-H inductor and 3 x 22-F capacitor. The inductor is a low dc resistance (0.017 ) type, Pulse Engineering PA0277. The capacitors used are 22-F, 6.3 V ceramic types with X5R dielectric. The feedback loop is compensated so that the unity gain frequency is approximately 75 kHz. www.ti.com TPS54810 SLVS420B - MARCH 2002 - R EVISED FEBRUARY 2005 PCB LAYOUT Figure 10 shows a generalized PCB layout guide for the TPS54810 The VIN pins are connected together on the printed-circuit board (PCB) and bypassed with a low-ESR ceramic-bypass capacitor. Care should be taken to minimize the loop area formed by the bypass capacitor connections, the VIN pins, and the TPS54810 ground pins. The minimum recommended bypass capacitance is 10-F ceramic capacitor with a X5R or X7R dielectric and the optimum placement is closest to the VIN pins and the PGND pins. The TPS54810 has two internal grounds (analog and power). Inside the TPS54810, the analog ground ties to all of the noise sensitive signals, while the power ground ties to the noisier power signals. Noise injected between the two grounds can degrade the performance of the TPS54810, particularly at higher output currents. Ground noise on an analog ground plane can also cause problems with some of the control and bias signals. For these reasons, separate analog and power ground traces are recommended. There is an area of ground on the top layer directly under the IC, with an exposed area for connection to the PowerPAD. Use vias to connect this ground area to any internal ground planes. Additional vias are also used at the ground side of the input and output filter capacitors. The AGND and PGND pins are tied to the PCB ground by connecting them to the ground area under the device as shown. The only components that tie directly to the power ground plane are the input capacitors, the output capacitors, the input voltage decoupling capacitor, and the PGND pins of the TPS54810. Use a separate wide trace for the analog ground signal path. The analog ground is used for the voltage set point divider, timing resistor RT, slow-start capacitor and bias capacitor grounds. Connect this trace directly to AGND (Pin 1). The PH pins are tied together and routed to the output inductor. Since the PH connection is the switching node, the inductor is located close to the PH pins. The area of the PCB conductor is minimized to prevent excessive capacitive coupling. Connect the boot capacitor between the phase node and the BOOT pin as shown Keep the boot capacitor close to the IC and minimize the conductor trace lengths. Connect the output filter capacitor(s) as shown between the VOUT trace and PGND. It is important to keep the loop formed by the PH pins, LOUT, COUT and PGND as small as practical. Place the compensation components from the VOUT trace to the VSENSE and COMP pins. Do not place these components too close to the PH trace. Due to the size of the IC package and the device pin-out, they must be routed close, but maintain as much separation as possible while still keeping the layout compact. Connect the bias capacitor from the VBIAS pin to analog ground using the isolated analog ground trace. If a slow-start capacitor or RT resistor is used, or if the SYNC pin is used to select 350-kHz operating frequency, connect them to this trace. 9 TPS54810 www.ti.com SLVS420B - MARCH 2002 - R EVISED FEBRUARY 2005 ANALOG GROUND TRACE FREQUENCY SET RESISTOR AGND RT VSENSE COMPENSA TION NETWORK COMP SYNC SLOW ST ART CAPACITOR SS/ENA BIAS CAP ACITOR PWRGD BOOT CAP ACITOR BOOT PH VOUT PH OUTPUT INDUCTOR OUTPUT FILTER CAPACITOR VBIAS VIN EXPOSED POWERP AD AREA VIN PH VIN PH VIN PH VIN PH PGND PH PGND PH PGND PH PGND PH PGND VIN INPUT BYP ASS CAPACITOR TOPSIDE GROUND AREA VIA to Ground Plane Figure 10.

A 3 inch by 3 inch plane of 1 ounce copper is recommended, though not mandatory, depending on ambient temperature and airflow. Most applications have larger areas of internal ground plane available, and the PowerPAD should be connected to the largest area available. Additional areas on the top or bottom layers also help dissipate heat, and 8 PL O 0.0130 4 PL O 0.0180 Connect Pin 1 to Analog Ground Plane in This Area for Optimum Performance any area available should be used when 8 A or greater operation is desired. Connection from the exposes area of the PowerPAD to the analog ground plane layer should be made using 0.013 inch diameter vias to avoid solder wicking through the vias. Eight vias should be in the PowerPAD area with four additional vias located under the device package. The size of the vias under the package, but not in the exposed thermal pad area, can be increased to 0.018. Additional vias beyond the twelve recommended that enhance thermal performance should be included in areas not under the device package.

During power up, internal circuits are held inactive until VIN exceeds the nominal UVLO threshold voltage of 3.80 V. Once the UVLO start threshold is reached, device start-up begins. The device operates until VIN falls below the nominal UVLO stop threshold of 3.5 V. Hysteresis in the UVLO comparator, and a 2.5-s rising and falling edge deglitch circuit reduce the likelihood of shutting the device down due to noise on VIN. Slow-Start/Enable (SS/ENA) The slow-start/enable pin provides two functions. First, the pin acts as an enable (shutdown) control by keeping the device turned off until the voltage exceeds the start threshold voltage of approximately 1.2 V. When SS/ENA exceeds the enable threshold, device start up begins. The reference voltage fed to the error amplifier is linearly ramped up from 0 V to 0.891 V in 3.35 ms. Similarly, the converter output voltage reaches regulation in approximately 3.35 ms. Voltage hysteresis and a 2.5-s falling edge deglitch circuit reduce the likelihood of triggering the enable due to noise. The second function of the SS/ENA pin provides an external means of extending the slow-start time with a low-value capacitor connected between SS/ENA and AGND. Adding a capacitor to the SS/ENA pin has two effects on start-up. First, a delay occurs between release of the SS/ENA pin and start up of the output. The delay is proportional to the slow-start capacitor value and lasts until the SS/ENA pin reaches the enable threshold. The start-up delay is approximately: t +C d (SS) 1.2 V 5 mA (2) Second, as the output becomes active, a brief ramp-up at the internal slow-start rate may be observed before the externally set slow-start rate takes control and the output rises at a rate proportional to the slow-start capacitor. The ramp-up time set by the capacitor is approximately: t (d) +C (SS) 0.7 V 5 mA (3) The actual ramp-up time is likely to be less than the above approximation due to the brief ramp-up at the internal rate. VBIAS Regulator (VBIAS) The VBIAS regulator provides internal analog and digital blocks with a stable supply voltage over variations in junction temperature and input voltage. A high quality, low-ESR, ceramic bypass capacitor is required on the VBIAS pin. X7R or X5R grade dielectrics are recommended because their values are more stable over temperature. The bypass capacitor should be placed close to the VBIAS pin and returned to AGND. External loading on VBIAS is allowed, with the caution that internal circuits require a minimum VBIAS of 2.70 V, and external loads on VBIAS with ac or digital switching noise may degrade performance. The VBIAS pin may be useful as a reference voltage for external circuits. Voltage Reference The voltage reference system produces a precise Vref signal by scaling the output of a temperature stable bandgap circuit. During manufacture, the bandgap and scaling circuits are trimmed to produce 0.891 V at the output of the error amplifier, with the amplifier connected as a voltage follower. The trim procedure adds to the high precision regulation of the TPS54810, since it cancels offset errors in the scale and error amplifier circuits. Oscillator and PWM Ramp The oscillator frequency can be set to internally fixed values of 350 kHz or 550 kHz using the SYNC pin as a static digital input. If a different frequency of operation is required for the application, the oscillator frequency can be externally adjusted from 280 to 700 kHz by connecting a resistor between the RT pin and AGND and floating the SYNC pin. The switching frequency is approximated by the following equation, where R is the resistance from RT to AGND: Switching Frequency + 100 kW R 500 [kHz] (4) External synchronization of the PWM ramp is possible over the frequency range of 330 kHz to 700 kHz by driving a synchronization signal into SYNC and connecting a resistor from RT to AGND. Choose an RT resistor which sets the free running frequency to 80% of the synchronization signal. The following table summarizes the frequency selection configurations: SWITCHING FREQUENCY SYNC PIN RT PIN 350 kHz, internally set Float or AGND Float 550 kHz, internally set =2.5 V Float Externally set 280 kHz to 700 kHz Float R = 68 k to 180 k Externally synchronized frequency Synchronization signal R = RT value for 85% of external synchronization frequency Error Amplifier The high performance, wide bandwidth, voltage error amplifier sets the TPS54810 apart from most dc/dc converters. The user is given the flexibility to use a wide range of output L and C filter components to suit the 13 TPS54810 www.ti.com SLVS420B - MARCH 2002 - R EVISED FEBRUARY 2005 particular application needs. Type 2 or type 3 compensation can be employed using external compensation components. PWM Control Signals from the error amplifier output, oscillator, and current limit circuit are processed by the PWM control logic. Referring to the internal block diagram, the control logic includes the PWM comparator, OR gate, PWM latch, and portions of the adaptive dead-time and control logic block. During steady-state operation below the current limit threshold, the PWM comparator output and oscillator pulse train alternately reset and set the PWM latch. Once the PWM latch is reset, the low-side FET remains on for a minimum duration set by the oscillator pulse width. During this period, the PWM ramp discharges rapidly to its valley voltage. When the ramp begins to charge back up, the low-side FET turns off and high-side FET turns on. As the PWM ramp voltage exceeds the error amplifier output voltage, the PWM comparator resets the latch, thus turning off the high-side FET and turning on the low-side FET. The low-side FET remains on until the next oscillator pulse discharges the PWM ramp. During transient conditions, the error amplifier output could be below the PWM ramp valley voltage or above the PWM peak voltage. If the error amplifier is high, the PWM latch is never reset and the high-side FET remains on until the oscillator pulse signals the control logic to turn the high-side FET off and the low-side FET on. The device operates at its maximum duty cycle until the output voltage rises to the regulation set-point, setting VSENSE to approximately the same voltage as VREF. If the error amplifier output is low, the PWM latch is continually reset and the high-side FET does not turn on. The low-side FET remains on until the VSENSE voltage decreases to a range that allows the PWM comparator to change states. The TPS54810 is capable of sinking current continuously until the output reaches the regulation set-point. If the current limit comparator trips for longer than 100 ns, the PWM latch resets before the PWM ramp exceeds the error amplifier output. The high-side FET turns off and low-side FET turns on to decrease the energy in the output inductor and consequently the output current. This process is repeated each cycle in which the current limit comparator is tripped. Dead-Time Control and MOSFET Drivers Adaptive dead-time control prevents shoot-through current from flowing in both N-channel power MOSFETs during the switching transitions by actively controlling the turnon times of the MOSFET drivers. The high-side driver does not turn on until the voltage at the gate of the low-side 14 FET is below 2 V. While the low-side driver does not turn on until the voltage at the gate of the high-side MOSFET is below 2 V. The high-side and low-side drivers are designed with 300-mA source and sink capability to quickly drive the power MOSFETs gates. The low-side driver is supplied from VIN, while the high-side drive is supplied from the BOOT pin. A bootstrap circuit uses an external BOOT capacitor and an internal 2.5- bootstrap switch connected between the VIN and BOOT pins. The integrated bootstrap switch improves drive efficiency and reduces external component count. Overcurrent Protection The cycle by cycle current limiting is achieved by sensing the current flowing through the high-side MOSFET and comparing this signal to a preset overcurrent threshold. The high side MOSFET is turned off within 200 ns of reaching the current limit threshold. A 100 ns leading edge blanking circuit prevents false tripping of the current limit when the high side switch is turning on. Current limit detection occurs only when current flows from VIN to PH when sourcing current to the output filter. Load protection during current sink operation is provided by thermal shutdown. Thermal Shutdown The device uses the thermal shutdown to turn off the power MOSFETs and disable the controller if the junction temperature exceeds 150C. The device is released from shutdown automatically when the junction temperature decreases to 10C below the thermal shutdown trip point, and starts up under control of the slow-start circuit. Thermal shutdown provides protection when an overload condition is sustained for several milliseconds. With a persistent fault condition, the device cycles continuously; starting up by control of the soft-start circuit, heating up due to the fault condition, and then shutting down upon reaching the thermal shutdown trip point. This sequence repeats until the fault condition is removed. Power Good (PWRGD) The power good circuit monitors for under voltage conditions on VSENSE. If the voltage on VSENSE is 10% below the reference voltage, the open-drain PWRGD output is pulled low. PWRGD is also pulled low if VIN is less than the UVLO threshold or SS/ENA is low. When VIN UVLO threshold, SS/ENA enable threshold, and VSENSE > 90% of Vref, the open drain output of the PWRGD pin is high. A hysteresis voltage equal to 3% of Vref and a 35 s falling edge deglitch circuit prevent tripping of the power good comparator due to high frequency noise.
