3 Description
The TPS650231 device is an integrated power
management IC for applications powered by one
Li-Ion or Li-Polymer cell, and which requires multiple
power rails. The TPS650231 provides three highly
efficient step-down converters targeted at providing
the core voltage, peripheral, I/O, and memory rails in
a processor-based system. The core converter allows
for on-the-fly voltage changes through serial
interface, allowing the system to implement dynamic
power savings.

SLVSAE3A – AUGUST 2010 – REVISED JANUARY 2016
5 Description (continued)
All three step-down converters enter a low-power mode at light load for maximum efficiency across the widest
possible range of load currents. The TPS650231 also integrates two general-purpose, 200-mA LDO voltage
regulators, which are enabled with an external input pin. Each LDO operates with an input voltage range from 1.5
V to 6.5 V, thus allowing them to be supplied from one of the step-down converters or directly from the battery.
The default output voltage of the LDOs can be digitally set to 4 different voltage combinations using the
DEFLDO1 and DEFLDO2 pins. The serial interface can be used for dynamic voltage scaling, masking interrupts,
or for disabling, enabling, and setting the LDO output voltages. The interface is compatible with the fast and
standard mode I2C specifications, allowing transfers at up to 400 kHz. The TPS650231 is available in a 40-pin
VQFN (RSB) package or in a 49-ball DSBGA (YFF) package, and operates over a free-air temperature of –40°C
to +85°C.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
TPS650231 has 5 regulator channels, 3 DCDCs and 2 LDOs. DCDC3 has dynamic voltage scaling feature, DVS,
that allows for power reduction to CORE supplies during idle operation or over voltage during heavy-duty
operation. With DVS and 2 more DCDCs plus 2 LDOs, the TPS650231 is ideal for CORE, Memory, IO, and
peripheral power for the entire system of a wide range of suitable applications.
The device incorporates enables for the DCDCs and LDOs, I2C for device control, push-button and a reset
interface that complete the system and allow for the TPS650231 to be adapted for different kinds of processors
or FPGAs.
For noise-sensitive circuits, the DCDCs can be synchronized out of phase from one another, reducing the peak
noise at the switching frequency. Each converter can be forced to operate in PWM mode to ensure constant
switching frequency across the entire load range. However, for low-load efficiency performance the DCDCs
automatically enter PSM mode which reduces the switching frequency when the load current is low, saving
power at idle operation.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 VRTC Output and Operation With or Without Backup Battery
The VRTC pin is an always-on output, intended to supply up to 30 mA to a permanently required rail (that is, for
a real-time clock). The TPS650231 asserts the RESPWRON signal if VRTC drops below 2.4 V. VRTC is selected
from a priority scheme based on the VSYSIN and VBACKUP inputs.
When the voltage at the VSYSIN pin exceeds 2.65 V, VRTC connects to the VSYSIN input through a PMOS
switch and all other paths to VRTC are disabled. The PMOS switch drops a maximum of 375 mV at 30-mA,
which must be considered when using VRTC. VSYSIN can be connected to any voltage source with the
appropriate input voltage, including VCC or, if set to 3.3-V output, DCDC2 or DCDC3. When VSYSIN falls below
2.65 V or shorts to ground, the PMOS switch connecting VRTC and VSYSIN opens and VRTC then connects to
either VBACKUP or the output of a dedicated 3-V or 30-mA LDO. Texas Instruments recommends connecting
VSYSIN to VCC or ground, connecting VCC if a non-replaceable primary cell is connected to VBACKUP and
ground if the VRTC output floats.

Feature Description (continued)
If the PMOS switch between VSYSIN and VRTC is open and VBACKUP exceeds 2.65 V, VRTC connects to
VBACKUP through a PMOS switch. The PMOS switch drops a maximum of 375 mV at 30 mA, which must be
considered if using VRTC. A typical application may connect VBACKUP to a primary Li button cell, but any
battery that provides a voltage between 2.65 V and 6 V (that is, a single Li-Ion cell or a single boosted NiMH
battery) is acceptable, to supply the VRTC output.
NOTE
In systems with no backup battery, the VBACKUP pin must be connected to GND.
If the switches between VRTC and VSYSIN or VBACKUP are open, the dedicated 3-V or 30-mA LDO, driven
from VCC, connects to VRTC. This LDO is disabled if the voltage at the VSYSIN input exceeds 2.65 V.
Inside TPS650231 there is a switch (Vmax switch) which selects the higher voltage between VCC and VBACKUP.
This is used as the supply voltage for some basic functions. The functions powered from the output of the Vmax
switch are:
• INT output
• RESPWRON output
• HOT_RESET input
• LOW_BATT output
• PWRFAIL output
• Enable pins for DC-DC converters, LDO1 and LDO2
• Undervoltage lockout comparator (UVLO)
• Reference system with low-frequency timing oscillators
• LOW_BATT and PWRFAIL comparators
The main 2.25-MHz oscillator, and the I2C interface are only powered from VCC.

Feature Description (continued)
8.3.2 Step-Down Converters, VDCDC1, VDCDC2, and VDCDC3
The TPS650231 incorporates three synchronous step-down converters operating typically at 2.25-MHz fixedfrequency pulse width modulation (PWM) at moderate to heavy-load currents. At light-load currents the
converters automatically enter power save mode and operate with pulse frequency modulation (PFM). The
VDCDC1 converter is capable of delivering 1.7-A output current, the VDCDC2 converter is capable of delivering
1.2-A, and the VDCDC3 converter delivers up to 800 mA.
The converter output voltages can be programmed through the DEFDCDC1, DEFDCDC2, and DEFDCDC3 pins.
For DEFDCDC1 and DEFDCDC3, the pins can either be connected to GND, VCC, or to a resistor divider
between the output voltage and GND.
The VDCDC1 converter defaults to 1.2 V or 1.6 V depending on the DEFDCDC1 configuration pin, if DEFDCDC1
is tied to ground the default is 1.2 V, if it is tied to VCC the default is 1.6 V. When the DEFDCDC1 pin is
connected to a resistor divider, the output voltage can be set in the range of 0.6 V to VINDCDC1 V. See
Application Information for more details. The core voltage can be reprogrammed through the serial interface in
the range of 0.8 V to 1.6 V with a programmable slew rate. The converter is forced into PWM operation whilst
any programmed voltage change is underway, whether the voltage is being increased or decreased. The
DEFCORE and DEFSLEW registers are used to program the output voltage and slew rate during voltage
transitions.
The DEFDCDC2 pin does not have the logic function in parallel and always needs to be connected with a
resistor divider, the output voltage can be set in the range of 0.6 V to VINDCDC2 V.
The VDCDC3 converter defaults to 1.8 V or 3.3 V depending on the DEFDCDC3 configuration pin. If DEFDCDC3
is tied to ground, the default is 1.8 V. If it is tied to VCC, the default is 3.3 V. When the DEFDCDC3 pin is
connected to a resistor divider, the output voltage can be set in the range of 0.6 V to VINDCDC3 V. The stepdown converter outputs (when enabled) are monitored by power-good comparators, the outputs of which are
available through the serial interface. The outputs of the DC-DC converters can be optionally discharged through
on-chip 300-Ω resistors when the DC-DC converters are disabled.
During PWM operation the converters use a unique fast response voltage mode controller scheme with input
voltage feedforward to achieve good line and load regulation allowing the use of small ceramic input and output
capacitors. At the beginning of each clock cycle initiated by the clock signal, the P-channel MOSFET switch is
turned on and the inductor current ramps up until the comparator trips and the control logic turns off the switch.
The current limit comparator also turns off the switch in case the current limit of the P-channel switch is
exceeded. After the adaptive dead-time used to prevent shoot through current, the N-channel MOSFET rectifier
is turned on and the inductor current ramps down. The next cycle is initiated by the clock signal again turning off
the N-channel rectifier and turning on the P-channel switch.
The three DC-DC converters operate synchronized to each other, with the VDCDC1 converter as the master. A
180° phase shift between the VDCDC1 switch turn on and the VDCDC2 and a further 90° shift to the VDCDC3
switch turn on decreases the input RMS current and smaller input capacitors can be used. The phase of the
three converters can be changed using the CON_CTRL register.
8.3.3 Power Save Mode Operation
As the load current decreases, the converters enter the power save mode operation. During power save mode,
the converters operate in a burst mode (PFM mode) with a frequency between 750 kHz and 2.25 MHz, nominal
for one burst cycle. However, the frequency between different burst cycles depends on the actual load current
and is typically far less than the switching frequency with a minimum quiescent current to maintain high
efficiency.

Feature Description (continued)
To optimize the converter efficiency at light load, the average current is monitored and if in PWM mode the
inductor current remains below a certain threshold, then PSM is entered. The typical threshold to enter PSM is
calculated with Equation 1, Equation 2, and Equation 3.
VINDCDC1
IPFMDCDC1 enter =
(1)
24 Ω
VINDCDC2
IPFMDCDC2 enter =
26 Ω
(2)
VINDCDC3
IPFMDCDC3 enter =
39 W
(3)
During the power save mode the output voltage is monitored with a comparator, and by maximum skip burst
width. As the output voltage falls below the threshold, set to the nominal VO, the P-channel switch turns on and
the converter effectively delivers a constant current defined with Equation 4, Equation 5, and Equation 6.
VINDCDC1
IPFMDCDC1 leave =
18 W
(4)
VINDCDC2
IPFMDCDC2 leave =
20 W
(5)
VINDCDC3
IPFMDCDC3 leave =
29 W
(6)
If the load is below the delivered current then the output voltage rises until the same threshold is crossed in the
other direction. All switching activity ceases, reducing the quiescent current to a minimum until the output voltage
has again dropped below the threshold. The power save mode is exited, and the converter returns to PWM mode
if either of the following conditions are met:
1. the output voltage drops 2% below the nominal VO due to increasing load current
2. the PFM burst time exceeds 16 × 1 / fs (7.11 μs typical).
These control methods reduce the quiescent current to typically 14 μA per converter, and the switching activity to
a minimum, thus achieving the highest converter efficiency. Setting the comparator thresholds at the nominal
output voltage at light-load current results in a low-output voltage ripple. The ripple depends on the comparator
delay and the size of the output capacitor. Increasing capacitor values makes the output ripple tend to zero. The
PSM is disabled through the I2C interface to force the individual converters to stay in fixed-frequency PWM
mode.
8.3.4 Low-Ripple Mode
Setting bit 3 in register CON-CTRL to 1 enables the low-ripple mode for all of the DC-DC converters if operated
in PFM mode. For an output current less than approximately 10 mA, the output voltage ripple in PFM mode is
reduced, depending on the actual load current. The lower the actual output current on the converter, the lower
the output ripple voltage. For an output current above 10 mA, there is only minor difference in output voltage
ripple between PFM mode and low-ripple PFM mode. As this feature also increases switching frequency, it is
used to keep the switching frequency above the audible range in PFM mode down to a low-output current.
8.3.5 Soft-Start
Each of the three converters has an internal soft-start circuit that limits the inrush current during start-up. The
soft-start is realized by using a low current to initially charge the internal compensation capacitor. The soft-start
time is typically 750 μs if the output voltage ramps from 5% to 95% of the final target value. If the output is
already precharged to some voltage when the converter is enabled, then this time is reduced proportionally.
There is a short delay of typically 170 μs between the converter being enabled and switching activity actually
starting. This allows the converter to bias itself properly, to recognize if the output is precharged, and if so to
prevent discharging of the output while the internal soft-start ramp catches up with the output voltage.

Feature Description (continued)
8.3.6 100% Duty Cycle Low-Dropout Operation
The TPS650231 converters offer a low input-to-output voltage difference while still maintaining operation with the
use of the 100% duty cycle mode. In this mode the P-channel switch is constantly turned on. This is particularly
useful in battery-powered applications to achieve longest operation time by taking full advantage of the whole
battery voltage range. The minimum input voltage required to maintain DC regulation depends on the load
current and output voltage. It is calculated in Equation 7.

(7)
8.3.7 Active Discharge When Disabled
When the VDCDC1, VDCDC2, and VDCDC3 converters are disabled, due to an UVLO, DCDC_EN, or
OVERTEMP condition, it is possible to actively pull down the outputs. This feature is disabled per default and is
individually enabled through the CON_CTRL2 register in the serial interface. When this feature is enabled, the
VDCDC1, VDCDC2, and VDCDC3 outputs are discharged by a 300-Ω (typical) load which is active as long as
the converters are disabled.
8.3.8 Power-Good Monitoring
All three step-down converters and both the LDO1 and LDO2 linear regulators have power-good comparators.
Each comparator indicates when the relevant output voltage has dropped 10% below its target value with 5%
hysteresis. The outputs of these comparators are available in the PGOODZ register through the serial interface.
An interrupt is generated when any voltage rail drops below the 10% threshold. The comparators are disabled
when the converters are disabled and the relevant PGOODZ register bits indicate that power is good.
8.3.9 Low-Dropout Voltage Regulators
The low-dropout voltage regulators are designed to operate well with low-value ceramic input and output
capacitors. They operate with input voltages down to 1.5 V. The LDOs offer a maximum dropout voltage of
300 mV at rated output current. Each LDO supports a current limit feature. Both LDOs are enabled by the
LDO_EN pin, both LDOs can be disabled or programmed through the serial interface using the REG_CTRL and
LDO_CTRL registers. The LDOs also have reverse conduction prevention. This allows the possibility to connect
external regulators in parallel in systems with a backup battery. The TPS650231 step-down and LDO voltage
regulators automatically power down when the VCC voltage drops below the UVLO threshold or when the junction
temperature rises above 160°C.
8.3.10 Undervoltage Lockout
The undervoltage lockout circuit for the five regulators on the TPS650231 prevents the device from
malfunctioning at low-input voltages and from excessive discharge of the battery. It disables the converters and
LDOs. The UVLO circuit monitors the VCC pin, the threshold is set internally to 2.35 V with 5% (120 mV)
hysteresis. Consider this current if an external RC filter is used at the VCC pin to remove switching noise from
the TPS650231 internal analog circuitry supply.
NOTE
When any of the DC-DC converters are running, there is an input current at the VCC pin,
which is up to 3 mA when all three converters are running in PWM mode.

Feature Description (continued)
8.3.11 Power-Up Sequencing
The TPS650231 power-up sequencing is designed to be entirely flexible and customer-driven. This is achieved
by providing separate enable pins for each switch-mode converter, and a common enable signal for the LDOs.
The relevant control pins are described in Table 2.
Table 2. Control Pins and Status Outputs for DC-DC Converters
PIN NAME
I/O
FUNCTION
DEFDCDC3
I
Defines the default voltage of the VDCDC3 switching converter. DEFDCDC3 = 0 defaults VDCDC3 to 1.8 V,
DEFDCDC3 = VCC defaults VDCDC3 to 3.3 V.
DEFDCDC2
I
Feedback pin of the VDCDC2 switching converter, connected to a resistive divider. The output voltage can be set
between 0.6 V and VINDCDC2 V.
DEFDCDC1
I
Defines the default voltage of the VDCDC1 switching converter. DEFDCDC1 = 0 defaults VDCDC1 to 1.2 V,
DEFDCDC1 = VCC defaults VDCDC1 to 1.6 V.
DCDC3_EN
I
Set DCDC3_EN = 0 to disable and DCDC3_EN = 1 to enable the VDCDC3 converter
DCDC2_EN
I
Set DCDC2_EN = 0 to disable and DCDC2_EN = 1 to enable the VDCDC2 converter
DCDC1_EN
I
Set DCDC1_EN = 0 to disable and DCDC1_EN = 1 to enable the VDCDC1 converter
HOT_RESET
I
TPS650231RSB only:
The HOT_RESET pin generates a reset (RESPWRON) for the processor.HOT_RESET does not alter any
TPS650231 settings except the output voltage of VDCDC1. Activating HOT_RESET sets the voltage of VDCDC1
to its default value defined with the DEFDCDC1 pin. HOT_RESET is internally de-bounced by the TPS650231.
RESPWRON
O
TPS650231RSB only:
RESPWRON is held low when power is initially applied to the TPS650231. The VRTC voltage is monitored:
RESWPRON is low when VRTC < 2.4 V and remains low for a time defined by the external capacitor at the
TRESPWRON pin. RESPWRON can also be forced low by activation of the HOT_RESET pin.
TRESPWRON
I
Connect a capacitor here to define the RESET time at the RESPWRON pin (1 nF typically gives 100 ms).
8.3.12 System Reset + Control Signals
The RESPWRON signal can be used as a global reset for the application. It is an open-drain output. The
RESPWRON signal is generated according to the power good comparator of VRTC, and remains low for tnrespwron
seconds after VRTC has risen above 2.52 V (falling threshold is 2.4 V, 5% hysteresis). tnrespwron is set by an
external capacitor at the TRESPWRON pin. 1 nF gives typically 100 ms. RESPWRON is also triggered by the
HOT_RESET input. This input is internally debounced, with a filter time of typically 30 ms.
The PWRFAIL and LOW_BAT signals are generated by two voltage detectors using the PWRFAIL_SNS and
LOWBAT_SNS input signals. Each input signal is compared to a 1-V threshold (falling edge) with 5% (50 mV)
hysteresis.
The DCDC1 converter is reset to its default output voltage defined by the DEFDCDC1 input, when HOT_RESET
is asserted. Other I2C registers are not affected. Generally, the DCDC1 converter is set to its default voltage with
one of these conditions: HOT_RESET active, VRTC lower than its threshold voltage, undervoltage lockout
(UVLO) condition, or RESPWRON active.
The RESPWRON, HOT_RESET, LOW_BAT, and LOWBAT_SNS pins are not available in TPS650231YFF.
8.3.12.1 DEFLDO1 and DEFLDO2
These two pins are used to set the default output voltage of the two 200-mA LDOs. The digital value applied to
the pins is latched during power up and determines the initial output voltage according to Table 3. The voltage of
both LDOs can be changed during operation with the I2C interface as described in the interface description.

8.3.12.2 Interrupt Management and the INT Pin
The INT pin combines the outputs of the PGOOD comparators from each DC-DC converter and the LDOs. The
INT pin is used as a POWER_OK pin to indicate when all enabled supplies are in regulation. The INT pin
remains active (low state) during power up as long as all enabled power rails are below their regulation limit.
When the last enabled power rail is within regulation, the INT pin transitions to a high state.
During operation, if one of the enabled supplies goes out of regulation, INT transitions to a low state, and the
corresponding bit in the PGOODZ register goes high. If the supply goes back to its regulation limits, INT
transitions back to a high state.
While INT is in an active-low state, reading the PGOODZ register through the I2C bus forces INT into a high-Z
state. Because this pin requires an external pullup resistor, the INT pin transitions to a logic high state even
though the supply in question is still out of regulation. The corresponding bit in the PGOODZ register still
indicates that the power rail is out of regulation.
Interrupts can be masked using the MASK register; default operation is not to mask any DCDC or LDO interrupts
because this provides the POWER_OK function. If none of the DCDC converters or LDOs are enabled, /INT
defaults to a low state independently of the settings of the MASK register.
8.4 Device Functional Modes
The TPS650231 device is in the ON or the OFF mode. The OFF mode is entered when the voltage on VCC is
below the UVLO threshold, 2.35 V (typically). When the voltage at VCC has increased above UVLO, the device
enters ON mode. In the ON mode, the DCDCs and LDOs are available for use.

8.5 Programming
8.5.1 Serial Interface
The serial interface is compatible with the standard and fast mode I2C specifications, allowing transfers at up to
400 kHz. The interface adds flexibility to the power supply solution, enabling most functions to be programmed to
new values depending on the instantaneous application requirements and charger status to be monitored.
Register contents remain intact as long as VCC remains above 2 V. The TPS650231 has a 7-bit address:
1001000, other addresses are available upon contact with the factory. Attempting to read data from the register
addresses not listed in this section results in FFh being read out.
For normal data transfer, DATA is allowed to change only when CLK is low. Changes when CLK is high are
reserved for indicating the start and stop conditions. During data transfer, the data line must remain stable
whenever the clock line is high. There is one clock pulse per bit of data. Each data transfer is initiated with a start
condition and terminated with a stop condition. When addressed, the TPS650231 device generates an
acknowledge bit after the reception of each byte. The master device (microprocessor) must generate an extra
clock pulse that is associated with the acknowledge bit. The TPS650231 device must pull down the DATA line
during the acknowledge clock pulse so that the DATA line is a stable low during the high period of the
acknowledge clock pulse. The DATA line is a stable low during the high period of the acknowledge–related clock
pulse. Setup and hold times must be taken into account. During read operations, a master must signal the end of
data to the slave by not generating an acknowledge bit on the last byte that was clocked out of the slave. In this
case, the slave TPS650231 device must leave the data line high to enable the master to generate the stop
condition

The CON_CTRL register is used to force any or all of the converters into forced PWM operation, when lowoutput voltage ripple is vital. It is also used to control the phase shift between the three converters to minimize
the input rms current, hence reduce the required input blocking capacitance. The DCDC1 converter is taken as
the reference and consequently has a fixed zero phase shift.

9 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
9.1.1 Input Voltage Connection
The low power section of the control circuit for the step-down converters DCDC1, DCDC2, and DCDC3 is
supplied by the VCC pin while the circuitry with high power such as the power stage is powered from the
VINDCDC1, VINDCDC2, and VINDCDC3 pins. For proper operation of the step-down converters, VINDCDC1,
VINDCDC2, VNDCDC3, and VCC need to be tied to the same voltage rail. Step-down converters that are
planned to be not used, still need to be powered from their input pin on the same rails than the other step-down
converters and VCC.
LDO1 and LDO2 share a supply voltage pin which can be powered from the VCC rails or from a voltage lower
than VCC, for example, the output of one of the step-down converters as long as it is operated within the input
voltage range of the LDOs. If both LDOs are not used, the VINLDO pin can be tied to GND.
9.1.2 Unused Regulators
In case a step-down converter is not used, its input supply voltage pin VINDCDCx still must be connected to the
VCC rail along with supply input of the other step-down converters. TI recommends closing the control loop such
that an inductor and output capacitor is added in the same way as it would be when operated normally. If one of
the LDOs is not used, its output capacitor must be added as well. If both LDOs are not used, the input supply pin
as well as the output pins of the LDOs (VINLDO, VLDO1, VLDO2) must be tied to GND.
9.1.3 Reset Condition of DCDC1
If DEFDCDC1 is connected to ground and DCDC1_EN is pulled high after VINDCDC1 is applied, the output
voltage of DCDC1 defaults to 1.225 V instead of 1.2 V (high by 2%). Figure 38 illustrates the problem.

Another workaround is to write the correct voltage to the DEF_CORE register through I2C. This can be done
before or after the converter is enabled. If written before the enable, the only bit changed is DEF_CORE[0]. The
voltage is 1.2 V, however, when the enable is pulled high (Figure 40).

Typical Application (continued)
9.2.1 Design Requirements
The TPS650231 device has only a few design requirements. Use the following parameters for the design
examples:
• 1-μF bypass capacitor on VCC, located as close as possible to the VCC pin to ground
• VCC and VINDCDCx must be connected to the same voltage supply with minimal voltage difference
• Input capacitors must be present on the VINDCDCx and VIN_LDO supplies if used
• Output inductor and capacitors must be used on the outputs of the DCDC converters if used
• Output capacitors must be used on the outputs of the LDOs if used
9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
9.2.2.1 Inductor Selection for the DC-DC Converters
Each of the converters in the TPS650231 typically use a 2.2-μH output inductor. Larger or smaller inductor
values are used to optimize the performance of the device for specific operation conditions. The selected
inductor has to be rated for its DC resistance and saturation current. The DC resistance of the inductance
influences directly the efficiency of the converter. Therefore, an inductor with lowest DC resistance must be
selected for highest efficiency.
For a fast transient response, a 2.2-μH inductor in combination with a 22-μF output capacitor is recommended.
Equation 8 calculates the maximum inductor current under static load conditions. The saturation current of the
inductor must be rated higher than the maximum inductor current as calculated with Equation 8. This is needed
because during heavy-load transient the inductor current rises above the value calculated under Equation 8.

(9)
The highest inductor current occurs at maximum Vin.
Open-core inductors have a soft saturation characteristic, and they can usually handle higher inductor currents
versus a comparable shielded inductor.
A more conservative approach is to select the inductor current rating just for the maximum switch current of the
TPS650231 (2 A for the VDCDC1 and VDCDC2 converters, and 1.5 A for the VDCDC3 converter). The core
material from inductor to inductor differs and has an impact on the efficiency especially at high switching
frequencies.

9.2.2.2 Output Capacitor Selection
The advanced fast response voltage mode control scheme of the inductive converters implemented in the
TPS650231 allow the use of small ceramic capacitors with a typical value of 10 μF for each converter without
having large output voltage under and overshoots during heavy load transients. Ceramic capacitors with low ESR
values have the lowest output voltage ripple and are recommended. See Table 19 for recommended
components.
If ceramic output capacitors are used, the capacitor RMS ripple current rating always meets the application
requirements. Just for completeness, the RMS ripple current is calculated with Equation 10.

(10)
At nominal load current, the inductive converters operate in PWM mode. The overall output voltage ripple is the
sum of the voltage spike caused by the output capacitor ESR plus the voltage ripple caused by charging and
discharging the output capacitor in Equation 11.

the highest output voltage ripple occurs at the highest input voltage Vin
(11)
At light-load currents, the converters operate in PSM and the output voltage ripple is dependent on the output
capacitor value. The output voltage ripple is set by the internal comparator delay and the external capacitor. The
typical output voltage ripple is less than 1% of the nominal output voltage.
9.2.2.3 Input Capacitor Selection
Because of the nature of the buck converter having a pulsating input current, a low-ESR input capacitor is
required for best input voltage filtering and minimizing the interference with other circuits caused by high input
voltage spikes. Each DC-DC converter requires a 10-μF ceramic input capacitor on its input pin VINDCDCx. The
input capacitor is increased without any limit for better input voltage filtering. The VCC pin is separated from the
input for the DC-DC converters. A filter resistor of up to 10R and a 1-μF capacitor is used for decoupling the VCC
pin from switching noise.
NOTE
The filter resistor may affect the UVLO threshold because up to 3 mA can flow through
this resistor into the VCC pin when all converters are running in PWM mode.

9.2.2.4 Output Voltage Selection
The DEFDCDC1, DEFDCDC2, and DEFDCDC3 pins are used to set the output voltage for each step-down
converter. For DEFDCDC1 and DEFDCDC3 there are default voltages defined when the pin is tied to a logic low
or logic high signal. See Table 20 for the default voltages if the pins are pulled to GND or to Vcc. If a different
voltage is needed, an external resistor divider can be added to the DEFDCDCx pin as shown in Figure 43.

SLVSAE3A – AUGUST 2010 – REVISED JANUARY 2016
The output voltage of VDCDC1 is set with the I2C interface. If the voltage is changed from the default, using the
DEFCORE register, the output voltage only depends on the register value. Any resistor divider at DEFDCDC1
can not change the voltage set with the register. TI does not recommend changing the divider ratio of a resistor
divider connected at DEFDCDC1 or DEFDCDC3 during operation as the internal logic may detect a logic high
signal in error during the change from a high voltage to a lower voltage and scales the output to the voltage
defined by DEFDCDCx = HIGH. As DEFDCDC2 does not have these default fixed voltages, the resistor divider
can be changed during operation.

9.2.2.5 VRTC Output
It is required to add a capacitor of 4.7-μF minimum to the VRTC pin, even the output may be unused.
9.2.2.6 LDO1 and LDO2
The LDOs in the TPS650231 are general-purpose LDOs which are stable using ceramics capacitors. The
minimum output capacitor required is 2.2 μF. The LDOs output voltage can be changed to different voltages
between 1 V and 3.3 V using the I2C interface. The supply voltage for the LDOs needs to be connected to the
VINLDO pin, giving the flexibility to connect the lowest voltage available in the system and provides the highest
efficiency.

9.2.2.7 TRESPWRON
This is the input to a capacitor that defines the reset delay time after the voltage at VRTC rises above 2.52 V.
The timing is generated by charging and discharging the capacitor with a current of 2 μA between a threshold of
0.25 V and 1 V for 128 cycles. A 1-nF capacitor gives a delay time of 100 ms.
While there is no real upper and lower limit for the capacitor connected to TRESPWRON, TI recommends to not
leave signal pins open.

and TRESPWRON_LOWTH (0.25 V) can be found in Specifications.
9.2.2.8 VCC Filter
An RC filter connected at the VCC input is used to keep noise from the internal supply for the bandgap and other
analog circuitry. A typical value of 1 Ω and 1 μF is used to filter the switching spikes, generated by the DC-DC
converters. A larger resistor than 10 Ω must not be used because the current into VCC of up to 3 mA causes a
voltage drop at the resistor causing the undervoltage lockout circuitry connected at VCC internally to switch off
too early.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
10.1 Requirements for Supply Voltages Below 3.0 V
For a supply voltage on pins VCC, VINDCDC1, VINDCDC2, and VINDCDC3 below 3.0 V, TI recommends
enabling the DCDC1, DCDC2, and DCDC3 converters in sequence. If all 3 step-down converters are enabled at
the same time while the supply voltage is close to the internal reset detection threshold, a reset may be
generated during power-up. Therefore, TI recommends enabling the DC-DC converters in sequence. This can be
done by driving one or two of the enable pins with a RC delay or by driving the enable pin by the output voltage
of one of the other step-down converters. If a voltage above 3.0 V is applied on pin VBACKUP while VCC and
VINDCDCx is below 3.0 V, there is no restriction in the power-up sequencing as VBACKUP is used to power the
internal circuitry.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
As for all switching power supplies, the layout is an important step in the design. Proper function of the device
demands careful attention to PCB layout. Take care in board layout to get the specified performance. If the
layout is not carefully done, the regulators may show poor line and/or load regulation, and stability issues, as well
as EMI problems. It is critical to provide a low impedance ground path. Therefore, use wide and short traces for
the main current paths. The input capacitors must be placed as close as possible to the IC pins as well as the
inductor and output capacitor.
For TPS650231RSB, connect the PGND pins of the device to the PowerPAD land of the PCB and connect the
analog ground connections (AGND) to the PGND at the PowerPAD. It is essential to provide a good thermal and
electrical connection of all GND pins using multiples through to the GND-plane. Keep the common path to the
AGND pins, which returns the small signal components, and the high current of the output capacitors as short as
possible to avoid ground noise. The VDCDCx line must be connected right to the output capacitor and routed
away from noisy components and traces (for example, the L1, L2, and L3 traces).
For TPS650231YFF, connect the PGND pins of the device and the analog ground connections (AGND) to the
GND plane on the board. It is essential to provide a good thermal and electrical connection of all GND pins to the
GND-plane. Keep the common path to the AGND pins, which returns the small signal components, and the high
current of the output capacitors as short as possible to avoid ground noise. The VDCDCx line must be connected
right to the output capacitor and routed away from noisy components and traces (for example, the L1, L2, and L3
traces).
