The device implements constant frequency, current-mode control that reduces output capacitance and simplifies external frequency compensation. The wide switching-frequency range of 100 kHz to 2500 kHz allows either efficiency or size optimization when selecting the output filter components. The switching frequency is adjusted using a resistor to ground connected to the RT/CLK pin. The device has an internal phase-locked loop (PLL) connected to the RT/CLK pin that synchronizes the power switch turn on to a falling edge of an external clock signal. The TPS54540B has a default input start-up voltage of approximately 4.3 V. The EN pin can be used to adjust the input voltage undervoltage lockout (UVLO) threshold with two external resistors. An internal pullup current source enables operation when the EN pin is floating. The operating current is 146 μA under no-load condition (not switching). When the device is disabled, the supply current is 2 μA. The integrated 92-mΩ high-side MOSFET supports high efficiency power supply designs capable of delivering 5 amperes of continuous current to a load. The gate drive bias voltage for the integrated high-side MOSFET is supplied by a bootstrap capacitor connected from the BOOT to SW pins. The TPS54540B reduces the external component count by integrating the bootstrap recharge diode. The BOOT pin capacitor voltage is monitored by a UVLO circuit that turns off the high-side MOSFET when the BOOT to SW voltage falls below a preset threshold. An automatic BOOT capacitor recharge circuit allows the TPS54540B to operate at high duty cycles approaching 100%. Therefore, the maximum output voltage is near the minimum input supply voltage of the application. The minimum output voltage is the internal 0.8-V feedback reference. Output overvoltage transients are minimized by an overvoltage transient protection (OVP) comparator. When the OVP comparator is activated, the high-side MOSFET is turned off and remains off until the output voltage is less than 106% of the desired output voltage. The TPS54540B includes an internal soft-start circuit that slows the output rise time during start-up to reduce inrush current and output voltage overshoot. Output overload conditions reset the soft-start timer. When the overload condition is removed, the soft-start circuit controls the recovery from the fault output level to the nominal regulation voltage. A frequency foldback circuit reduces the switching frequency during start-up and overcurrent fault conditions to help maintain control of the inductor current. 10 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: TPS54540B TPS54540B www.ti.com SLVSEZ9 – JANUARY 2019 7.2 Functional Block Diagram EN VIN Thermal Shutdown UVLO Enable Comparator OV Shutdown Shutdown Logic Enable Threshold Boot Charge Voltage Reference Boot UVLO Minimum Clamp Pulse Skip Error Amplifier Current Sense PWM Comparator FB BOOT Logic Shutdown 6 Slope Compensation SW COMP Frequency Foldback Reference DAC for Soft- Start Maximum Clamp Oscillator with PLL 8/8/ 2012 A 0192789 GND POWERPAD RT/ CLK Copyright © 2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated 7.3 Feature Description 7.3.1 Fixed Frequency PWM Control The TPS54540B uses fixed-frequency, peak-current-mode control with adjustable switching frequency. The output voltage is compared through external resistors connected to the FB pin to an internal voltage reference by an error amplifier. An internal oscillator initiates the turnon of the high-side power switch. The error amplifier output at the COMP pin controls the high-side power switch current. When the high-side MOSFET switch current reaches the threshold level set by the COMP voltage, the power switch is turned off. The COMP pin voltage increases and decreases as the output current increases and decreases. The device implements current limiting by clamping the COMP pin voltage to a maximum level. The pulse skipping Eco-mode is implemented with a minimum voltage clamp on the COMP pin. 7.3.2 Slope Compensation Output Current The TPS54540B adds a compensating ramp to the MOSFET switch current sense signal. This slope compensation prevents sub-harmonic oscillations at duty cycles greater than 50%. The peak current limit of the high-side switch is not affected by the slope compensation and remains constant over the full duty-cycle range. Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: TPS54540B 11 TPS54540B SLVSEZ9 – JANUARY 2019 www.ti.com Feature Description (continued) 7.3.3 Pulse Skip Eco-mode The TPS54540B operates in a pulse skipping Eco-mode at light load currents to improve efficiency by reducing switching and gate-drive losses. If the output voltage is within regulation and the peak switch current at the end of any switching cycle is below the pulse skipping current threshold, the device enters Eco-mode. The pulse skipping current threshold is the peak switch current level corresponding to a nominal COMP voltage of 600 mV. When in Eco-mode, the COMP pin voltage is clamped at 600 mV, and the high-side MOSFET is inhibited. Because the device is not switching, the output voltage begins to decay. The voltage control loop responds to the falling output voltage by increasing the COMP pin voltage. The high-side MOSFET is enabled and switching resumes when the error amplifier lifts COMP above the pulse-skipping threshold. The output voltage recovers to the regulated value, and COMP eventually falls below the Eco-mode pulse-skipping threshold at which time the device again enters Eco-mode. The internal PLL remains operational when in Eco-mode. When operating at light load currents in Eco-mode, the switching transitions occur synchronously with the external clock signal. During Eco-mode operation, the TPS54540B senses and controls peak switch current, not the average load current. Therefore, the load current at which the device enters Eco-mode is dependent on the output inductor value. The circuit in Figure 32 enters Eco-mode at about 25.3-mA output current. As the load current approaches zero, the device enters a pulse-skip mode during which it draws only 146 μA input quiescent current. 7.3.4 Low Dropout Operation and Bootstrap Voltage (BOOT) The TPS54540B provides an integrated bootstrap voltage regulator. A small capacitor between the BOOT and SW pins provides the gate-drive voltage for the high-side MOSFET. The BOOT capacitor is refreshed when the high-side MOSFET is off and the external low-side diode conducts. The recommended value of the BOOT capacitor is 0.1 μF. TI recommends a ceramic capacitor with an X7R or X5R grade dielectric with a voltage rating of 10 V or higher for stable performance over temperature and voltage. When operating with a low voltage difference from input to output, the high-side MOSFET of the TPS54540B operates at 100% duty cycle as long as the BOOT to SW pin voltage is greater than 2.1 V. When the voltage from BOOT to SW drops below 2.1 V, the high-side MOSFET is turned off, and an integrated low side MOSFET pulls SW low to recharge the BOOT capacitor. To reduce the losses of the small low-side MOSFET at high output voltages, it is disabled at 24-V output and re-enabled when the output reaches 21.5 V. Because the gate drive current sourced from the BOOT capacitor is small, the high-side MOSFET can remain on for many switching cycles before the MOSFET is turned off to refresh the capacitor. Thus, the effective duty cycle of the switching regulator can be high, approaching 100%. The effective duty cycle of the converter during dropout is mainly influenced by the voltage drops across the power MOSFET, the inductor resistance, the lowside diode voltage, and the printed-circuit-board resistance. Equation 1 calculates the minimum input voltage required to regulate the output voltage and ensure normal operation of the device. This calculation must include tolerance of the component specifications and the variation of these specifications at their maximum operating temperature in the application.

If VBOOT calculates to greater than 6 V, set VBOOT = 6 V (2) 7.3.5 Error Amplifier The TPS54540B voltage-regulation loop is controlled by a transconductance error amplifier. The error amplifier compares the FB pin voltage to the lower of the internal soft-start voltage or the internal 0.8-V voltage reference. The transconductance (gm) of the error amplifier is 350 μA/V during normal operation. During soft-start operation, the transconductance is reduced to 78 μA/V, and the error amplifier is referenced to the internal soft-start voltage. The frequency compensation components (capacitor, series resistor, and capacitor) are connected between the error amplifier output COMP pin and GND pin. 7.3.6 Adjusting the Output Voltage The internal voltage reference produces a precise 0.8 V, ±1% voltage reference over the operating temperature and voltage range by scaling the output of a bandgap reference circuit. The output voltage is set by a resistor divider from the output node to the FB pin. TI recommends using 1% tolerance or better divider resistors. Select the low side resistor RLS for the desired divider current and use Equation 3 to calculate RHS. To improve efficiency at light loads consider using larger value resistors. However, if the values are too high, the regulator is more susceptible to noise, and voltage errors from the FB input current may become noticeable. æ Vout - 0.8V ö RHS = RLS ´ ç ÷ 0.8 V è ø (3) 7.3.7 Enable and Adjusting Undervoltage Lockout The TPS54540B is enabled when the VIN pin voltage rises above 4.3 V and the EN pin voltage exceeds the enable threshold of 1.2 V. The TPS54540B is disabled when the VIN pin voltage falls below 4 V or when the EN pin voltage is below 1.2 V. The EN pin has an internal pullup current source, I1, of 1.2 μA that enables operation of the TPS54540B when the EN pin floats. If an application requires a higher undervoltage lockout (UVLO) threshold, use the circuit shown in Figure 22 to adjust the input voltage UVLO with two external resistors. When the EN pin voltage exceeds 1.2 V, an additional 3.4 μA of hysteresis current, IHYS, is sourced out of the EN pin. When the EN pin is pulled below 1.2 V, the 3.4μA Ihys current is removed. This additional current facilitates adjustable input-voltage UVLO hysteresis. Use Equation 4 to calculate RUVLO1 for the desired UVLO hysteresis voltage. Use Equation 5 to calculate RUVLO2 for the desired VIN start voltage. In applications designed to start at relatively low input voltages (for example, from 4.5 V to 9 V) and withstand high input voltages (for example, from 40 V or 42 V), the EN pin may experience a voltage greater than the absolute maximum voltage of 8.4 V during the high input voltage condition. It is recommended to use a zener diode to clamp the pin voltage below the absolute maximum rating.

The internal soft-start time (10% to 90%) is calculated using Equation 6. 1024 tSS (ms) = fSW (kHz) (6) If the EN pin is pulled below the stop threshold of 1.2 V, switching stops, and the internal soft-start resets. The soft start also resets in thermal shutdown. 7.3.9 Constant Switching Frequency and Timing Resistor (RT/CLK) pin) The switching frequency of the TPS54540B is adjustable over a wide range from 100 kHz to 2500 kHz by placing a resistor between the RT/CLK pin and GND pin. The RT/CLK pin voltage is typically 0.5 V and must have a resistor to ground to set the switching frequency. To determine the timing resistance for a given switching frequency, use Equation 7 or Equation 8 or the curves in Figure 6 and Figure 7. To reduce the solution size one would typically set the switching frequency as high as possible, but tradeoffs of the conversion efficiency, maximum input voltage, and minimum controllable on time should be considered. The minimum controllable ontime is typically 135 ns, which limits the maximum operating frequency in applications with high input-to-output step-down ratios. The maximum switching frequency is also limited by the frequency foldback circuit. A more detailed discussion of the maximum switching frequency is provided in Accurate Current-Limit Operation and Maximum Switching Frequency. 101756 RT (kW) = f sw (kHz)1.008 (7) f sw (kHz) = 14 92417 RT (kW)0.991 (8) Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: TPS54540B TPS54540B www.ti.com SLVSEZ9 – JANUARY 2019 Feature Description (continued) 7.3.10 Accurate Current-Limit Operation and Maximum Switching Frequency The TPS54540B implements peak-current-mode control in which the COMP pin voltage controls the peak current of the high-side MOSFET. A signal proportional to the high-side switch current and the COMP pin voltage are compared each cycle. When the peak switch current intersects the COMP control voltage, the high-side switch is turned off. During overcurrent conditions that pull the output voltage low, the error amplifier increases switch current by driving the COMP pin high. The error amplifier output is clamped internally at a level which sets the peak switch-current limit. The TPS54540B provides an accurate current limit threshold with a typical current limit delay of 60 ns. With smaller inductor values, the delay results in a higher peak inductor current. The relationship between the inductor value and the peak inductor current is shown in Figure 23. Inductor Current (A) Peak Inductor Current ΔCLPeak Open Loop Current Limit ΔCLPeak = VIN/L x tCLdelay tCLdelay tON Figure 23. Current Limit Delay To protect the converter in overload conditions at higher switching frequencies and input voltages, the TPS54540B implements a frequency foldback. The oscillator frequency is divided by 1, 2, 4, and 8 as the FB pin voltage falls from 0.8 V to 0 V. The TPS54540B uses a digital frequency foldback to enable synchronization to an external clock during normal start-up and fault conditions. During short-circuit events, the inductor current can exceed the peak current limit because of the high input voltage and the minimum controllable on-time. When the output voltage is forced low by the shorted load, the inductor current decreases slowly during the switch off-time. The frequency foldback effectively increases the off-time by increasing the period of the switching cycle providing more time for the inductor current to ramp down. With a maximum frequency foldback ratio of 8, there is a maximum frequency at which the inductor current can be controlled by frequency foldback protection. Equation 10 calculates the maximum switching frequency at which the inductor current remains under control when VOUT is forced to VOUT(SC). The selected operating frequency must not exceed the calculated value. Equation 9 calculates the maximum switching frequency limitation set by the minimum controllable on time and the input to output step down ratio. Setting the switching frequency above this value causes the regulator to skip switching pulses to achieve the low duty cycle required at maximum input voltage.

To implement this synchronization feature connect a square wave to the RT/CLK pin through either circuit network shown in Figure 24. The square wave applied to the RT/CLK pin must switch lower than 0.5 V and higher than 1.7 V and have a pulse width greater than 15 ns. The synchronization frequency range is 160 kHz to 2300 kHz. The rising edge of the SW is synchronized to the falling edge of RT/CLK pin signal. Design the external synchronization circuit so that the default frequency set resistor is connected from the RT/CLK pin to ground when the synchronization signal is off. When using a low impedance-signal source, the frequency set resistor is connected in parallel with an AC-coupling capacitor to a termination resistor (for example, 50 Ω) as shown in Figure 24. The two resistors in series provide the default frequency setting resistance when the signal source is turned off. The sum of the resistance must set the switching frequency close to the external CLK frequency. TI recommends accoupling the synchronization signal through a 10-pF ceramic capacitor to the RT/CLK pin. The first time the RT/CLK is pulled above the PLL threshold the TPS54540B switches from the RT resistor freerunning frequency mode to the PLL synchronized mode. The internal 0.5-V voltage source is removed, and the RT/CLK pin becomes high impedance as the PLL starts to lock onto the external signal. The switching frequency can be higher or lower than the frequency set with the RT/CLK resistor. The device transitions from the resistor mode to the PLL mode and locks onto the external clock frequency within 78 microseconds. During the transition from the PLL mode to the resistor programmed mode, the switching frequency falls to 150 kHz and then increases or decreases to the resistor-programmed frequency when the 0.5-V bias voltage is reapplied to the RT/CLK resistor. The switching frequency is divided by 8, 4, 2, and 1 as the FB pin voltage ramps from 0 to 0.8 volts. The device implements a digital frequency foldback to enable synchronizing to an external clock during normal start-up and fault conditions. Figure 25, Figure 26, and Figure 27 show the device synchronized to an external system clock in continuous conduction mode (CCM), discontinuous conduction (DCM), and pulse-skip mode (Eco-Mode).

Plot of Synchronizing in Eco-mode 7.3.12 Overvoltage Protection The TPS54540B incorporates an output OVP circuit to minimize voltage overshoot when recovering from output fault conditions or strong unload transients in designs with low output capacitance. For example, when the power supply output is overloaded the error amplifier compares the actual output voltage to the internal reference voltage. If the FB pin voltage is lower than the internal reference voltage for a considerable time, the output of the error amplifier increases to a maximum voltage corresponding to the peak-current-limit threshold. When the overload condition is removed, the regulator output rises, and the error amplifier output transitions to the normal operating level. In some applications, the power-supply-output voltage can increase faster than the response of the error-amplifier output resulting in an output overshoot. The OVP feature minimizes output overshoot when using a low-value output capacitor by comparing the FB pin voltage to the rising OVP threshold, which is nominally 109% of the internal voltage reference. If the FB pin voltage is greater than the rising OVP threshold, the high-side MOSFET is immediately disabled to minimize output overshoot. When the FB voltage drops below the falling OVP threshold, which is nominally 106% of the internal voltage reference, the high-side MOSFET resumes normal operation. 7.3.13 Thermal Shutdown The TPS54540B provides an internal thermal shutdown to protect the device when the junction temperature exceeds 176°C. The high-side MOSFET stops switching when the junction temperature exceeds the thermal trip threshold. Once the die temperature falls below 164°C, the device reinitiates the power-up sequence controlled by the internal soft-start circuitry. 7.3.14 Small Signal Model for Loop Response Figure 28 shows an equivalent model for the TPS54540B control loop that can be simulated to check the frequency response and dynamic load response. The error amplifier is a transconductance amplifier with a gmEA of 350 μA/V. The error amplifier can be modeled using an ideal voltage-controlled current source. The resistor Ro and capacitor Co model the open-loop gain and frequency response of the amplifier. The 1-mV ac voltage source between the nodes a and b effectively breaks the control loop for the frequency response measurements. Plotting c/a provides the small signal response of the frequency compensation. Plotting a/b provides the small signal response of the overall loop. The dynamic loop response can be evaluated by replacing RL with a current source with the appropriate load-step amplitude and step rate in a time-domain analysis. This equivalent model is only valid for CCM operation. 18 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: TPS54540B TPS54540B www.ti.com SLVSEZ9 – JANUARY 2019 Feature Description (continued) SW VO Power Stage gmps 17 A/V a b RESR R1 RL COMP c 0.8 V R3 CO C2 RO FB COUT gmea R2 350 mA/V C1 Copyright © 2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Figure 28. Small Signal Model for Loop Response 7.3.15 Simple Small Signal Model for Peak-Current-Mode Control Figure 29 describes a simple small signal model that can be used to design frequency compensation. The TPS54540B power stage can be approximated by a voltage-controlled current source (duty-cycle modulator) supplying current to the output capacitor and load resistor. The control to output transfer function is shown in Equation 11 and consists of a DC gain, one dominant pole, and one ESR zero. The quotient of the change in switch current and the change in COMP pin voltage (node c in Figure 28) is the power stage transconductance, gmPS. The gmPS for the TPS54540B is 17 A/V. The low-frequency gain of the power stage is the product of the transconductance and the load resistance as shown in Equation 12. As the load current increases and decreases, the low-frequency gain decreases and increases, respectively. This variation with the load may seem problematic at first glance, but fortunately the dominant pole moves with the load current (see Equation 13). The combined effect is highlighted by the dashed line in the right half of Figure 29. As the load current decreases, the gain increases and the pole frequency lowers, keeping the 0-dB crossover frequency the same with varying load conditions. The type of output capacitor chosen determines whether the ESR zero has a profound effect on the frequency compensation design. Using high-ESR aluminum electrolytic capacitors may reduce the number frequency compensation components needed to stabilize the overall loop because the phase margin is increased by the ESR zero of the output capacitor (see Equation 14).

The typical VIN UVLO threshold is 4.3 V, and the device may operate at input voltages down to the UVLO voltage. At input voltages below the actual UVLO voltage, the device does not switch. If EN is externally pulled up to VIN or left floating, when VIN passes the UVLO threshold the device becomes active. Switching is enabled, and the soft-start sequence is initiated. The TPS54540B starts at the soft-start time determined by the internal soft-start timer. 7.4.2 Operation with EN Control The enable threshold voltage is 1.2 V typical. With EN held below that voltage the device is disabled and switching is inhibited even if VIN is above its UVLO threshold. The IC quiescent current is reduced in this state. If the EN voltage is increased above the threshold while VIN is above its UVLO threshold, the device becomes active. Switching is enabled, and the soft-start sequence is initiated. The TPS54540B starts at the soft-start time determined by the internal soft-start timer.

Get more information about WEBENCH tools at www.ti.com/WEBENCH. 8.2.2.2 Selecting the Switching Frequency The first step is to choose a switching frequency for the regulator. Typically, the designer uses the highest switching frequency possible because this produces the smallest solution size. High switching frequency allows for lower value inductors and smaller output capacitors compared to a power supply that switches at a lower frequency. The switching frequency that can be selected is limited by the minimum on-time of the internal power switch, the input voltage, the output voltage and the frequency foldback protection. Use Equation 9 and Equation 10 to calculate the upper limit of the switching frequency for the regulator. Choose the lower value result from the two equations. Switching frequencies higher than these values results in pulse skipping or the lack of overcurrent protection during a short circuit. The typical minimum on time, tonmin, is 135 ns for the TPS54540. For this example, the output voltage is 3.3 V, and the maximum input voltage is 42 V. Assuming a diode voltage of 0.52 V, inductor DC resistance of 10.3 mΩ, typical switch resistance of 92 mΩ, and 5-A load, using Equation 25 the maximum switch frequency to avoid pulse skipping is 680 kHz. To ensure overcurrent runaway is not a concern during short circuits use Equation 26 to determine the maximum switching frequency for frequency foldback protection. With a current limit value of 6.3 A and short-circuit output voltage of 0.1 V, the maximum switching frequency is 960 kHz. For this design, a lower switching frequency of 400 kHz is chosen to operate comfortably below the calculated maximums. To determine the timing resistance for a given switching frequency, use Equation 27 or the curve in Figure 6. The switching frequency is set by resistor R3 shown in Figure 32. For 400 kHz operation, the closest standard value resistor is 243 kΩ. 1 æ 5 A x 10.3 mW + 3.3 V + 0.52 V ö fSW(max skip) = ´ ç ÷ = 680 kHz 135ns è 42 V - 5 A x 92 mW + 0.52 V ø (25) 8 æ 6.3 A x 10.3 mW + 0.1 V + 0.52 V ö ´ ç ÷ = 960 kHz 135 ns è 42 V - 6.3 A x 92 mW + 0.52 V ø 101756 RT (kW) = = 242 kW 400 (kHz)1.008 fSW(shift) = Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: TPS54540B (26) (27) 25 TPS54540B SLVSEZ9 – JANUARY 2019 www.ti.com 8.2.2.3 Output Inductor Selection (LO) To calculate the minimum value of the output inductor, use Equation 28. KIND is a ratio that represents the amount of inductor ripple current relative to the maximum output current. The inductor ripple current is filtered by the output capacitor. Therefore, choosing high inductor ripple currents impacts the selection of the output capacitor because the output capacitor must have a ripple current rating equal to or greater than the inductor ripple current. In general, the inductor ripple value is at the discretion of the designer; however, the following guidelines may be used. For designs using low ESR output capacitors such as ceramics, a value as high as KIND = 0.3 may be desirable. When using higher ESR output capacitors, KIND = 0.2 yields better results. Because the inductor ripple current is part of the current mode PWM control system, the inductor ripple current must always be greater than 150 mA for stable PWM operation. In a wide input voltage regulator, it is best to choose relatively large inductor ripple current. This provides sufficienct ripple current with the input voltage at the minimum. For this design example, KIND = 0.3 and the inductor value is calculated to be 5.1 μH. It is important that the RMS current and saturation current ratings of the inductor not be exceeded. The RMS and peak inductor current can be found from Equation 30 and Equation 31. For this design, the RMS inductor current is 5 A, and the peak inductor current is 5.79 A. The chosen inductor is a WE 744325550, which has a saturation current rating of 12 A and an RMS current rating of 10 A. This also has a typical inductance of 5.5 µH at no load and 4.8 µH at 5-A load. Lastly, it has a DCR of 10.3 mΩ. As the equation set demonstrates, lower ripple currents reduce the output voltage ripple of the regulator but require a larger value of inductance. Selecting higher ripple currents increases the output voltage ripple of the regulator but allows for a lower inductance value. The current flowing through the inductor is the inductor ripple current plus the output current. During power up, faults or transient load conditions, the inductor current can increase above the peak inductor-current level previously calculated. In transient conditions, the inductor current can increase up to the switch current limit of the device. For this reason, the most conservative design approach is to choose an inductor with a saturation current rating equal to or greater than the switch current limit of the TPS54540 which is nominally 7.5 A.

The output capacitor determines the modulator pole, the output voltage ripple, and how the regulator responds to a large change in load current. The output capacitance needs to be selected based on the most stringent of these three criteria. 26 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: TPS54540B TPS54540B www.ti.com SLVSEZ9 – JANUARY 2019 The desired response to a large change in the load current is the first criteria. The output capacitor needs to supply the increased load current until the regulator responds to the load step. A regulator does not respond immediately to a large, fast increase in the load current such as transitioning from no load to a full load. The regulator usually needs two or more clock cycles for the control loop to sense the change in output voltage and adjust the peak switch current in response to the higher load. The output capacitance must be large enough to supply the difference in current for 2 clock cycles to maintain the output voltage within the specified range. Equation 32 shows the minimum output capacitance necessary, where ΔIOUT is the change in output current, ƒSW is the regulators switching frequency and ΔVOUT is the allowable change in the output voltage. For this example, the transient load response is specified as a 4% change in VOUT for a load step from 1.25 A to 3.75 A. Therefore, ΔIOUT is 3.75 A – 1.25 A = 2.5 A and ΔVOUT = 0.04 × 3.3 V = 0.13 V. Using these numbers gives a minimum capacitance of 95 μF. This value does not take the ESR of the output capacitor into account in the output voltage change. For ceramic capacitors, the ESR is usually small enough to be ignored. Aluminum electrolytic and tantalum capacitors have higher ESR that must be included in load-step calculations. The output capacitor must also be sized to absorb energy stored in the inductor when transitioning from a high to low load current. The catch diode of the regulator can not sink current so energy stored in the inductor can produce an output voltage overshoot when the load current rapidly decreases. A typical load-step response is shown in Figure 37. The excess energy absorbed in the output capacitor increases the voltage on the capacitor. The capacitor must be sized to maintain the desired output voltage during these transient periods. Equation 33 calculates the minimum capacitance required to keep the output-voltage overshoot to a desired value, where LO is the value of the inductor, IOH is the output current under heavy load, IOL is the output under light load, Vf is the peak output voltage, and VI is the initial voltage. For this example, the worst-case load step is from 3.75 A to 1.25 A. The output voltage increases during this load transition and the stated maximum in our specification is 4% of the output voltage. This makes Vf = 1.04 × 3.3 V = 3.43 V. VI is the initial capacitor voltage, which is the nominal output voltage of 3.3 V. Using these numbers in Equation 33 yields a minimum capacitance of 68 μF. Equation 34 calculates the minimum output capacitance needed to meet the output voltage ripple specification, where ƒSW is the switching frequency, VORIPPLE is the maximum allowable output voltage ripple, and IRIPPLE is the inductor ripple current. Equation 34 yields 30 μF. Equation 35 calculates the maximum ESR an output capacitor can have to meet the output voltage ripple specification. Equation 35 indicates the equivalent ESR should be less than 10 mΩ. The most stringent criteria for the output capacitor is the 95 μF required to maintain the output voltage within regulation tolerance during a load transient. Capacitance de-ratings for aging, temperature, and dc bias increases this minimum value. For this example, 2 × 100-μF, 6.3-V type X5R ceramic capacitors with 2 mΩ of ESR are used. The derated capacitance is 130 µF, well above the minimum required capacitance of 95 µF. Capacitors are generally rated for a maximum ripple current that can be filtered without degrading capacitor reliability, especially non ceramic capacitors. Some capacitor data sheets specify the root mean square (RMS) value of the maximum ripple current. Equation 36 can be used to calculate the RMS ripple current that the output capacitor must support. For this example, Equation 36 yields 460 mA. 2 ´ DIOUT 2 ´ 2.5 A COUT > = = 95 mF fSW ´ DVOUT 400 kHz x 0.13 V (32) ((I ) - (I ) ) = 4.8 mH x (3.75 A - 1.25 A ) = 68 mF x (3.43 V - 3.3 V ) ((V ) - (V ) ) 2 OH COUT > LO 2 2 f 2 2 2 2 OL 2 I 1 1 1 1 x ´ = = 30 mF 8 ´ fSW æ VORIPPLE ö 8 x 400 kHz æ 16 mV ö ç 1.58 A ÷ ç ÷ è ø è IRIPPLE ø V 16 mV RESR < ORIPPLE = = 10 mW IRIPPLE 1.58 A (33) COUT > (34) (35) Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: TPS54540B 27 TPS54540B SLVSEZ9 – JANUARY 2019 ICOUT(rms) = www.ti.com ( VOUT ´ VIN(max ) - VOUT )= 12 ´ VIN(max ) ´ LO ´ fSW 3.3 V ´ (42 V - 3.3 V ) 12 ´ 42 V ´ 4.8 mH ´ 400 kHz = 460 mA (36) 8.2.2.5 Catch Diode The TPS54540B requires an external catch diode between the SW pin and GND. The selected diode must have a reverse voltage rating equal to or greater than VIN(max). The peak current rating of the diode must be greater than the maximum inductor current. Schottky diodes are typically a good choice for the catch diode due to their low forward voltage. The lower the forward voltage of the diode, the higher the efficiency of the regulator. Typically, diodes with higher voltage and current ratings have higher forward voltages. A diode with a minimum of 42-V reverse voltage is preferred to allow input voltage transients up to the rated voltage of the TPS54540. For the example design, the PDS760-13 Schottky diode is selected for its lower forward voltage and good thermal characteristics compared to smaller devices. The typical forward voltage of the PDS760-13 is 0.52 volts at 5 A and 25°C. The diode must also be selected with an appropriate power rating. The diode conducts the output current during the off-time of the internal power switch. The off-time of the internal switch is a function of the maximum input voltage, the output voltage, and the switching frequency. The output current during the off-time is multiplied by the forward voltage of the diode to calculate the instantaneous conduction losses of the diode. At higher switching frequencies, the ac losses of the diode need to be taken into account. The ac losses of the diode are due to the charging and discharging of the junction capacitance and reverse recovery charge. Equation 37 is used to calculate the total power dissipation, including conduction losses and ac losses of the diode. The PDS760-13 diode has a junction capacitance of 300 pF. Using Equation 37, the total loss in the diode at the nominal input voltage is 1.9 W. If the power supply spends a significant amount of time at light load currents or in sleep mode, consider using a diode which has a low leakage current and slightly higher forward voltage drop.

Some applications benefit from additional bulk capacitance. The effective capacitance includes any loss of capacitance due to dc bias effects. The voltage rating of the input capacitor must be greater than the maximum input voltage. The capacitor must also have a ripple current rating greater than the maximum input-current ripple of the TPS54540B. The input ripple current can be calculated using Equation 38. The value of a ceramic capacitor varies significantly with temperature and the dc bias applied to the capacitor. The capacitance variations due to temperature can be minimized by selecting a dielectric material that is more stable over temperature. X5R and X7R ceramic dielectrics are usually selected for switching-regulator capacitors because they have a high capacitance to volume ratio and are fairly stable over temperature. The input capacitor must also be selected with consideration for the dc bias. The effective value of a capacitor decreases as the dc bias across a capacitor increases. For this example design, a ceramic capacitor with at least a 42-V voltage rating is required to support transients up to the maximum input voltage. Common standard ceramic capacitor voltage ratings include 4 V, 6.3 V, 10 V, 16 V, 25 V, 50 V, or 100 V. For this example, four 4.7-μF, 50-V capacitors in parallel are used. Table 2 shows several choices of high voltage capacitors. The input capacitance value determines the input ripple voltage of the regulator. The maximum input voltage ripple occurs at 50% duty cycle and can be calculated using Equation 39. Using the design example values, IOUT = 5 A, CIN = 18.8 μF, ƒSW = 400 kHz, yields an input voltage ripple of 170 mV and an RMS input ripple current of 2.5 A. 28 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: TPS54540B TPS54540B www.ti.com SLVSEZ9 – JANUARY 2019 ICI(rms ) = IOUT x VOUT x VIN(min ) (V IN(min ) - VOUT VIN(min ) ) = 5A 3.3 V ´ 6V (6 V - 3.3 V ) 6V = 2.5 A (38) I ´ 0.25 5 A ´ 0.25 DVIN = OUT = = 170 mV CIN ´ fSW 18.8 mF ´ 400 kHz (39) Table 2.

TI recommends a ceramic capacitor with X5R or better grade dielectric. The capacitor must have a 10-V or higher voltage rating. 8.2.2.8 Undervoltage Lockout Set Point The undervoltage lockout (UVLO) can be adjusted using an external voltage divider on the EN pin of the TPS54540. The UVLO has two thresholds, one for power up when the input voltage is rising and one for power down or brownouts when the input voltage is falling. For the example design, the supply must turn on and start switching once the input voltage increases above 5.75 V (UVLO start). After the regulator starts switching, it should continue to do so until the input voltage falls below 4.5 V (UVLO stop). Programmable UVLO threshold voltages are set using the resistor divider of RUVLO1 and RUVLO2 between VIN and ground connected to the EN terminal. Equation 4 and Equation 5 calculate the resistance values necessary. For the example application, a 365-kΩ resistor between VIN and EN (RUVLO1) and a 88.7-kΩ resistor between EN and GND (RUVLO2) are required to produce the 5.75 V and 4.5 V start and stop voltages.

For the example design, 10.2 kΩ was selected for R6. Using Equation 3, R5 is calculated as 31.9 kΩ. The nearest standard 1% resistor is 31.6 kΩ. Due to the input current of the FB pin, the current flowing through the feedback network must be greater than 1 μA to maintain the output voltage accuracy. This requirement is satisfied if the value of R6 is less than 800 kΩ. Choosing higher resistor values decreases quiescent current and improves efficiency at low output currents but may also introduce noise immunity problems.

Using the typical values for the RHS, RDC and VF in this application example, the minimum input voltage is 5.56 V. The BOOT-SW = 3 V curve in Figure 1 was used for RDS(on) = 0.12 Ω because the device operates with low dropout. When operating with low dropout, the BOOTSW voltage is regulated at a lower voltage because the BOOT-SW capacitor is not refreshed every switching cycle. In the final application, the values of RDS(on), Rdc, and VF used in Equation 43 must include tolerance of the component specifications and the variation of these specifications at their maximum operating temperature in the application. In this application example, the calculated minimum input voltage is near the input voltage UVLO for the TPS54540B so the device may turn off before going into dropout.

The method presented here is easy to calculate and ignores the effects of the slope compensation that is internal to the device. Becausae the slope compensation is ignored, the actual crossover frequency is lower than the crossover frequency used in the calculations. This method assumes the crossover frequency is between the modulator pole and the ESR zero and the ESR zero is at least 10 times greater the modulator pole. To get started, the modulator pole, ƒp(mod), and the ESR zero, ƒz1 must be calculated using Equation 44 and Equation 45. For COUT, use a derated value of 130 μF. Use equations Equation 46 and Equation 47 to estimate a starting point for the crossover frequency, ƒco. For the example design, ƒp(mod) is 1850 Hz and ƒz(mod) is 610 kHz. Equation 45 is the geometric mean of the modulator pole and the ESR zero, and Equation 47 is the mean of modulator pole and half of the switching frequency. Equation 46 yields 34 kHz and Equation 47 gives 19 kHz. Use the geometric mean value of Equation 46 and Equation 47 for an initial crossover frequency. For this example, after lab measurement, the crossover frequency target was increased to 30 kHz for an improved transient response. Next, the compensation components are calculated. A resistor in series with a capacitor is used to create a compensating zero. A capacitor in parallel to these two components forms the compensating pole.

R4 is calculated to be 17 kΩ and a standard value of 16.9 kΩ is selected. Use Equation 49 to set the compensation zero to the modulator pole frequency.

The power supply enters Eco-mode when the output current is lower than 18 mA.

Do not use these equations if the device is operating in DCM. The power dissipation of the IC includes conduction loss (PCOND), switching loss (PSW), gate drive loss (PGD) and supply current (PQ).

There will be additional power losses in the regulator circuit due to the inductor ac and dc losses, the catch diode, and PCB trace resistance impacting the overall efficiency of the regulator. 8.2.2.14 Safe Operating Area 90 90 80 80 70 70 60 60 TA (ƒC) TA (ƒC) The safe operating area (SOA) of the device is shown in Figure 33, through Figure 36 for 3.3 V, 5 V, and 12 V outputs and varying amounts of forced air flow. The temperature derating curves represent the conditions at which the internal and external components are at or below the manufacturer’s maximum operating temperatures. Derating limits apply to devices soldered directly to a double-sided PCB with 2 oz. copper, similar to the EVM. Pay careful attention to the other components chosen for the design, especially the catch diode. In most of these test conditions, the thermal performance is limited by the catch diode. When operating at high duty cycles or at higher switching frequency the TPS54540B thermal performance can become the limiting factor. 50 50 6V 40 8V 40 12 V 24 V 30 36 V 20 0.0 0.5 12 V 24 V 30 36 V 20 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 IOUT (Amps) 4.0 4.5 5.0 0.0 C056 Figure 33. 3.3-V Outputs 32 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 IOUT (Amps) 4.0 4.5 5.0 C057 Figure 34. 5-V Outputs Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: TPS54540B TPS54540B SLVSEZ9 – JANUARY 2019 90 90 80 80 70 70 60 TA (ƒC) TA (ƒC) www.ti.com fsw = 800 kHz 50 18 V 40 60 50 400 LFM 40 200 LFM 30 100 LFM 24 V 30 36 V Nat Conv 20 20 0.0 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 IOUT (Amps) ƒSW = 800 kHz 4.0 4.5 5.0 0.0 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.0 4.5 IOUT (Amps) C058 ƒsw = 800 kHz Figure 35. 12-V Outputs VIN = 36 V 5.0 C048 VO = 12 V Figure 36.

If the input supply is located more than a few inches from the TPS54540B converter. Additional bulk capacitance may be required in addition to the ceramic bypass capacitors. An electrolytic capacitor with a value of 100 μF is a typical choice. 38 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: TPS54540B TPS54540B www.ti.com SLVSEZ9 – JANUARY 2019 10 Layout 10.1 Layout Guidelines Layout is a critical portion of good power supply design. There are several signal paths that conduct fast changing currents or voltages that can interact with stray inductance or parasitic capacitance to generate noise or degrade performance. • To reduce parasitic effects, bypass the VIN pin to ground with a low-ESR ceramic bypass capacitor with X5R or X7R dielectric. • Take care to minimize the loop area formed by the bypass capacitor connections, the VIN pin, and the anode of the catch diode. • Tie the GND pin directly to the power pad under the IC and the PowerPAD. • Connect the PowerPAD to internal PCB ground planes using multiple vias directly under the IC. • Route the SW pin to the cathode of the catch diode and to the output inductor. • Because the SW connection is the switching node, place the catch diode and output inductor close to the SW pins and the area of the PCB conductor minimized to prevent excessive capacitive coupling. • For operation at full-rated load, the top side ground area must provide adequate heat dissipating area. • The RT/CLK pin is sensitive to noise; therefore, place the RT resistor as close as possible to the IC and routed with minimal lengths of trace. • The additional external components can be placed approximately as shown. • It may be possible to obtain acceptable performance with alternate PCB layouts; however, this layout has been shown to produce good results and is meant as a guideline. 10.2 Layout Examples Vout Output Capacitor Topside Ground Area Input Bypass Capacitor Vin UVLO Adjust Resistors Output Inductor Route Boot Capacitor Trace on another layer to provide wide path for topside ground BOOT Catch Diode SW VIN GND EN COMP RT/CLK Frequency Set Resistor FB Compensation Network Resistor Divider Thermal VIA Signal VIA Figure 57.
