(2) TPS51117 SLVS631–DECEMBER 2005 The main control loop of the TPS51117 is designed as an adaptive on-time pulse width modulation (PWM) controller. It supports proprietary D-CAP™Mode that uses an internal compensation circuit and is suitable for minimal external component count configuration when an appropriate amount of ESR at the output capacitor(s) is allowed. Basic operation of D-CAP Mode can be described as follows. At the beginning of each cycle, the synchronous high-side MOSFET is turned on, or becomes ON state. This MOSFET is turned off, or becomes OFF state, after the internal one shot timer expires. This one shot is determined by VIN and VOUT to keep the frequency fairly constant over the input voltage range at steady state, hence it is called adaptive on-time control or fixed frequency emulated on-time control (see PWM frequency and Adaptive On-Time Control). The MOSFET is turned on again when both feedback information, monitored at VFB voltage, indicates insufficient output voltage AND inductor current information indicates below the overcurrent limit. Repeating the operation in this manner, the controller regulates the output voltage. The synchronous low-side or rectifying MOSFET is turned on each OFF state to keep the conduction loss to a minimum. The TPS51117 supports selectable PWM-only and auto-skip operation modes. If EN_PSV is grounded, the switching regulator is disabled. If the EN_PSV pin is connected to 3.3 V or 5 V, the regulator is enabled with auto-skip mode selected. The rectifying MOSFET is turned off when inductor current information detects zero level. This enables a seamless transition to reduced frequency operation during a light load condition so that high efficiency is maintained over a broad range of load currents. If the EN_PSV pin is floated, it is internally pulled up to 1.95 V, and the regulator is enabled with PWM-only mode selected. The rectifying MOSFET is not turned off when inductor current reaches zero. The converter runs forced continuous conduction mode for the entire load range. System designers may want to use this mode to avoid a certain frequency during a light load condition but with the cost of low efficiency. However, be aware the output has the capability to both source and sink current in this mode. If the output terminal is connected to a voltage source higher than the regulator’s target, the converter sinks current from the output and boosts the charge into the input capacitor. This may cause unexpected high voltage at VIN and may damage the power FETs. DC output voltage can be set by the external resistor divider as follows (refer to Figure 22 and Figure 23). If auto-skip mode is selected, the TPS51117 automatically reduces the switching frequency during a light load condition to maintain high efficiency. This reduction of frequency is achieved smoothly and without an increase of Vout ripple or load regulation. Detailed operation is described as follows. As the output current decreases from a heavy load condition, the inductor current is also reduced and eventually comes to the point that its valley touches zero current, which is the boundary between continuous conduction and discontinuous conduction modes. The rectifying MOSFET is turned off when this zero inductor current is detected. Since the output voltage is still higher than the reference at this moment, both high-side and low-side MOSFETs are turned off and wait for the next cycle. As the load current decreases further, the converter runs in discontinuous conduction mode, taking longer time to discharge the output capacitor below the reference voltage. Note the ON time is kept the same as during the heavy load condition. In reverse, when the output current increases from a light load to a heavy load, the switching frequency increases to the preset value as the inductor current reaches to the continuous conduction. The transition load point to light load operation, IOUT(LL) (i.e., the threshold between continuous and discontinuous conduction mode), can be calculated as follows: where fsw is the PWM switching frequency. Switching frequency versus output current in the light load condition is a function of L, fsw, VIN and VOUT, but it decreases almost proportional to the output current from the IOUT(LL) given above. For example, it is about 60 kHz at IOUT(LL)/5 if the PWM switching frequency is 300 kHz.

(5) TPS51117 SLVS631–DECEMBER 2005 DETAILED DESCRIPTION (continued) The high-side driver is designed to drive high-current, low RDS(on) N-channel MOSFET(s). When configured as a floating driver, 5-V bias voltage is delivered from V5DRV supply. An internal PN diode is connected between V5DRV to this pin. The designer can add an external schottky diode if forward drop is critical to drive the high-side NFET or to achieve the last one percent efficiency improvement. The average drive current is also estimated by the gate charge at Vgs = 5 V times the switching frequency. The instantaneous drive current is supplied by the flying capacitor between the VBST pin and LL pin. The drive capability is represented by its internal resistance, which is 5 Ωfor VBST to DRVH and 1.5 Ωfor DRVH to LL. The TPS51117 has an internal, 1.2-ms, voltage servo softstart with overcurrent limit. When the EN_PSV pin becomes high, an internal DAC begins ramping up the reference voltage to the error amplifier. Smooth control of the output voltage is maintained during start up. The TPS51117 has power-good output. PGOOD is an open drain 7.5-mA pull-down output. This pin should be typically connected to a 5-V power supply node through a 100-kΩresistor. The power-good function is activated after the soft start has finished. If the output voltage becomes within ±5% of the target value, internal comparators detect the power-good state and the power-good signal becomes high after a 64-µs internal delay. If the output voltage goes outside ±10% of the target value, the power-good signal becomes low immediately. The TPS51117 discharges output when EN_PSV is low or the converter is in a fault condition (UVP, OVP, UVLO, or thermal shutdown). The TPS51117 discharges output using an internal 20-ΩMOSFET which is connected to VOUT and PGND. The discharge time-constant is a function of the output capacitance and resistance of the discharge transistor. The TPS51117 has cycle-by-cycle overcurrent limiting control. Inductor current is monitored during the OFF state and the controller keeps the OFF state when inductor current is larger than the overcurrent trip level. In order to provide both good accuracy and a cost effective solution, the TPS51117 supports temperature compensated MOSFET RDS(on) sensing. The TRIP pin should be connected to GND through the trip voltage setting resistor, RTRIP. The TRIP terminal sources 10-µA ITRIP current, and the trip level is set to the OCL trip voltage, VTRIP as in the following equation. Inductor current is monitored by the voltage between the PGND pin and the LL pin so the LL pin should be connected to the drain terminal of the low-side MOSFET. ITRIP has 4500 ppm/°C temperature coefficient to compensate the temperature dependency of the RDS(on). PGND is used as the positive current sensing node so PGND should be connected to the source terminal of the bottom MOSFET. As the comparison is done during the OFF state, VTRIP sets the valley level of the inductor current. Thus, the load current at overcurrent threshold, Iocp, can be calculated as follows; In an overcurrent condition, the current to the load exceeds the current to the output capacitor thus the output voltage tends to fall. Eventually it crosses the undervoltage protection threshold and shutdown.

www.ti.com NEGATIVE OVERCURRENT LIMIT (PWM-ONLY MODE) OVERVOLTAGE PROTECTION UNDERVOLTAGE PROTECTION UVLO PROTECTION THERMAL SHUTDOWN TPS51117 SLVS631–DECEMBER 2005 DETAILED DESCRIPTION (continued) The TPS51117 also supports cycle-by-cycle negative overcurrent limiting in PWM-only mode. The overcurrent limit is set to be negative but is the same absolute value as the positive overcurrent limit. If output voltage continues to rise, the bottom MOSFET stays on, thus inductor current is reduced and reverses direction after it reaches zero. When there is too much negative current in the inductor, the bottom MOSFET is turned off and the current flows to VIN through the body diode of the top MOSFET. Because this protection reduces current to discharge the output capacitor, output voltage tends to rise, eventually hitting the overvoltage protection threshold and shutdown. In order to prevent false OVP from triggering, the bottom MOSFET is turned on again 400 ns after it is turned off. If the device hits the negative overcurrent threshold again before output voltage is discharged to the target level, the bottom MOSFET is turned off and the process repeats, which is called NOCL Buzz. It ensures maximum allowable discharge capability when output voltage continues to rise. On the other hand, if the output voltage is discharged to the target level before the NOCL threshold is reached, the bottom MOSFET is turned off, the top MOSFET is then turned on, and the device resumes normal operation. The TPS51117 monitors a resistor divided feedback voltage to detect overvoltage and undervoltage condition. When the feedback voltage becomes higher than 115% of the target value, the top MOSFET is turned off and the bottom MOSFET is turned on immediately. The output is also discharged by the internal 20-Ωtransistor. Also, the TPS51117 monitors VOUT terminal voltage directly and if it becomes greater than 5.75 V, it turns off the top MOSFET driver. When the feedback voltage becomes lower than 70% of the target value, the UVP comparator output goes high and an internal UVP delay counter begins counting. After 32 µs, the TPS51117 latches off the high-side and low-side MOSFETs and discharges the output with the internal 20-Ωtransistor. This function is enabled after 2 ms from when EN_PSV is brought high, i.e., UVP is disabled during start up. The TPS51117 has V5FILT undervoltage lockout protection (UVLO). When the V5FILT voltage is lower than the UVLO threshold voltage, the TPS51117 is shut off. This is a nonlatched protection. The TPS51117 monitors the temperature of itself. If the temperature exceeds the threshold value (typically 160°C), the TPS51117 shuts itself off. Both top and bottom gate drivers are tied low with output discharged through the VOUT terminal. This is also a nonlatched protection. The device recovers once the temperature has decreased approximately 12°C.

In the case where an extremely low or high duty factor is expected, the minimum on-time or off-time also needs to be considered to satisfy the required duty factor. Once the switching frequency is decided, RTON can be determined by Equation 8 and Equation 9, 3. Choose inductor A good starting point inductance value is where the ripple current is approximately 1/4 to 1/2 of the maximum output current. For applications that require fast transient response with minimum VOUT overshoot, consider a smaller inductance than above. The cost of a small inductance value is higher steady state ripple, larger line regulation, and higher switching loss. The inductor also needs to have low DCR to achieve good efficiency, as well as enough room above peak inductor current before saturation. The peak inductor current can be estimated as follows. 4. Choose output capacitor(s) Organic semiconductor capacitor(s) or specialty polymer capacitor(s) are recommended. Determine ESR to meet the required ripple voltage above. A quick approximation is shown in Equation 12. 5. Choose MOSFETs Loss-less current sensing and overcurrent protection of the TPS51117 is determined by RDS(on) of the low-side MOSFET. So, RDS(on) times the inductor current value at the overcurrent point should be in the range of 30 mV to 200 mV for the entire operational temperature range. Assuming a 20% guard band, RDS(on) in the following equation should satisfy the full temperature range. 6. Choose Rtrip Once the low-side FET is decided, select an appropriate Rtrip value that provides Vtrip equal to RDS(on) times Ipeak. 7. LPF for V5FILT In order to reject high frequency noise and also secure safe start-up of the internal reference circuit, apply 1 µF of MLCC closely at the V5FILT pin with a 300-Ωresistor to create a LPF between +5-V supply and the pin. 8.

The TPS51117 has its own boost diode on-board between V5DRV and VBST. This is a PN junction diode and strong enough for most typical applications. However, in case efficiency has priority over cost, the designer may add a Schottky diode externally to improve gate drive voltage of the high-side FET. A Schottky diode has a higher leakage current, especially at high temperature, than a PN junction diode. A low leakage diode should be selected in order to maintain VBST voltage during low frequency operation in skip mode. Power dissipation of the TPS51117 is mainly generated from the FET drivers. Average drive current can be estimated by gate charge, Qg, times the switching frequency. Qg is the charge needed to charge gate capacitance up to the V5DRV voltage of 5 V. Actual values are shown on MOSFET datasheets provided by the manufacturer. Total power dissipation, therefore, to drive the top and bottom MOSFETs can be calculated by the following equation Equation 15. This power plus a small amount of dissipation (less than 5 mW) from controller circuitry needs to be effectively dissipated from the package. Maximum power dissipation allowed for the package is calculated by: Where TJ(max) is 125°C TA(max) is the maximum ambient temperature in the system θJA is the thermal resistance from the silicon junction to the ambient This thermal resistance strongly depends on board layout. The TPS51117 is assembled in a standard TSSOP package and the heat mainly moves to the board through its leads. Certain points must be considered before starting a layout work using the TPS51117. Connect the RC low-pass filter from 5-V supply to V5FILT, 300 kΩand 1 µF are recommended. Place the filter capacitor close to the IC, within 12 mm (0.5 inches) if possible. Connect the overcurrent setting resistors from TRIP to GND close to the IC, right next to the IC, if possible. The trace from TRIP to resistor and resistor to GND should avoid coupling to a high voltage switching node. The discharge path (VOUT) should have a dedicated trace to the output capacitor(s); separate from the output voltage sensing trace, and use a 1,5 mm (60 mils) or wider trace with no loops. Make sure the feedback current setting resistor (the resistor between VFB to GND) is tied close to the IC GND. The trace from this resistor to the VFB pin should be short and thin. Place on the component side and avoid vias between this resistor and the IC. Connections from the drivers to the respective gate of the high-side or the low-side MOSFET should be as short as possible to reduce stray inductance. Use a 0.65 mm (25 mils) or wider trace. All sensitive analog traces and components such as VOUT, VFB, GND, EN_PSV, PGOOD, TRIP, V5FILT, and TON should be placed away from high-voltage switching nodes such as LL, DRVL, DRVH or VBST to avoid coupling. Use internal layer(s) as ground plane(s) and shield feedback trace from power traces and components. Gather the ground terminals of the VIN capacitor(s), VOUT capacitor(s), and the source of the low-side MOSFETs as close as possible. GND (signal ground) and PGND (power ground) should be connected strongly together near the IC. The PCB trace defined as LL node, which connects to the source of the high-side MOSFET, the drain of the low-side MOSFET, and the high-voltage side of the inductor, should be as short and wide as possible.
