1 Features
3 Description
•
•
The TPS65263-1Q1 incorporates triple-synchronous
buck converters with 4.0- to 18-V wide input voltage.
The converter with constant frequency peak current
mode is designed to simplify its application while
giving designers options to optimize the system
according to targeted applications. The switching
frequency of the converters is adjustable from 200
kHz to 2.3 MHz with an external resistor. 180° out-ofphase operation between buck1 and buck2, buck3
(buck2 and buck3 run in phase) minimizes the input
filter requirements.

The EN pin has a small pullup current, Ip, which sets the default state of the pin to enable when no external
components are connected. The pullup current is also used to control the voltage hysteresis for the UVLO
function because it increases by Ih after the EN pin crosses the enable threshold. The UVLO thresholds can be
calculated using Equation 2 and Equation 3.

7.3.3 Soft-Start Time
The voltage on the respective SS pin controls the startup of buck output. When the voltage on the SS pin is less
than the internal 0.6-V reference, The TPS65263-1Q1 regulates the internal feedback voltage to the voltage on
the SS pin instead of 0.6 V. The SS pin can be used to program an external soft-start function or to allow output
of buck to track another supply during start-up. The device has an internal pullup current source of 5.2 µA
(typical) that charges an external soft-start capacitor to provide a linear ramping voltage at the SS pin. The
TPS65263-1Q1 regulates the internal feedback voltage to the voltage on the SS pin, allowing VOUT to rise
smoothly from 0 V to its regulated voltage without inrush current. The soft-start time can be calculated
approximately by Equation 4.

Many of the common power-supply sequencing methods can be implemented using the SSx and ENx pins.
Figure 26 shows the method implementing ratiometric sequencing by connecting the SSx pins of three buck
channels together. The regulator outputs ramp up and reach regulation at the same time. When calculating the
soft-start time, the pullup current source must be tripled in Equation 4.

7.3.4 Power-Up Sequencing
The TPS65263-1Q1 has a dedicated enable pin and soft-start pin for each converter. The converter enable pins
are biased by a current source that allows for easy sequencing by the addition of an external capacitor. Disabling
the converter with an active pulldown transistor on the ENx pin allows for predictable power-down timing
operation. Figure 28 shows the timing diagram of a typical buck power-up sequence with connecting a capacitor
at the ENx pin.
A typical 1.4-µA current is charging the ENx pin from input supply. When the ENx pin voltage rises to typical 0.4
V, the internal V7V LDO turns on. A 3.9-µA pullup current is sourcing ENx. After the ENx pin voltage reaches the
ENx enabling threshold, a 3.0-µA hysteresis current sources to the pin to improve noise sensitivity. The internal
soft-start comparator compares the SS pin voltage to 1.2 V. When the SS pin voltage ramps up to 1.2 V,
PGOOD monitor is enabled. After PGOOD deglitch time, PGOOD is deasserted. The SS pin voltage is eventually
clamped around 2.1 V.

7.3.5 V7V Low-Dropout Regulator and Bootstrap
Power for the high-side and low-side MOSFET drivers and most other internal circuitry is derived from the V7V
pin. The internal built-in low-dropout linear regulator (LDO) supplies 6.3 V (typical) from VIN to V7V. The user
should connect a 1-µF ceramic capacitor from V7V pin to power ground.
If the input voltage, VIN, decreases to the UVLO threshold voltage, the UVLO comparator detects the V7V pin
voltage and forces the converter off.
Each high-side MOSFET driver is biased from the floating bootstrap capacitor, CB, shown in Figure 29, which is
normally recharged during each cycle through an internal low-side MOSFET or the body diode of a low-side
MOSFET when the high-side MOSFET turns off. The boot capacitor is charged when the BST pin voltage is less
than VIN and BST-LX voltage is below regulation. TI recommends a 47-nF ceramic capacitor. TI recommends a
ceramic capacitor with an X7R or X5R grade dielectric with a voltage rating of 10 V or higher because of the
stable characteristics over temperature and voltage. Each low-side MOSFET driver is powered from the V7V pin
directly.
To improve dropout, the device is designed to operate at 100% duty cycle as long as the BST to LX pin voltage
is greater than the BST-LX UVLO threshold, which is typically 2.1 V. When the voltage between BST and LX
drops below the BST-LX UVLO threshold, the high-side MOSFET is turned off and the low-side MOSFET is
turned on allowing the boot capacitor to be recharged.

7.3.6 Out-of-Phase Operation
To reduce input ripple current, the switch clock of buck1 is 180° out-of-phase from the clock of buck2 and buck3.
This enables the system having less input current ripple to reduce input capacitors’ size, cost, and EMI.

7.3.7 Output Overvoltage Protection (OVP)
The device incorporates an OVP circuit to minimize output voltage overshoot. When the 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 demands maximum
output current. After the condition is removed, the regulator output rises and the error amplifier output transitions
to the steady-state voltage. In some applications with small output capacitance, the load can respond faster than
the error amplifier. This leads to the possibility of an output overshoot. Each buck compares the FB pin voltage to
the OVP threshold. If the FB pin voltage is greater than the OVP threshold, the high-side MOSFET is turned off
preventing current from flowing to the output and minimizing output overshoot. When the FB voltage drops lower
than the OVP threshold, the high-side MOSFET turns on at the next clock cycle.
7.3.8 PSM
The TPS65263-1Q1 can enter high-efficiency PSM operation at light load current. To enable PSM operation, set
the VOUTx_COM registers’ bit 1 to '1' through I2C interface.
When a controller is enabled for PSM operation, the peak inductor current is sensed and compared with 310-mA
current typically. Because the integrated current comparator catches the peak inductor current only, the average
load current entering PSM varies with the applications and external output filters. In PSM, the sensed peak
inductor current is clamped at 310 mA, shown in Figure 30.
When a controller operates in PSM, the inductor current is not allowed to reverse. The reverse current
comparator turns off the low-side MOSFET when the inductor current reaches 0, preventing it from reversing and
going negative.
Due to the delay in the circuit and current comparator, tdly (typical 50 nS at Vin = 12 V), the real peak inductor
current threshold to turn off high-side power MOSFET could shift higher depending on inductor inductance and
input/output voltages. Calculate the threshold of peak inductor current to turn off high-side power MOSFET with
Equation 6.

After the charge accumulated on the Vout capacitor is more than loading need, the COMP pin voltage drops to a
low voltage driven by the error amplifier. There is an internal comparator at COMP pin. If the comp voltage is

Additional capacitance deratings for aging, temperature, and DC bias should be factored in, which increases this
minimum value. Capacitors generally have limits to the amount of ripple current they can handle without failing or
producing excess heat. The user must specify an output capacitor that can support the inductor ripple current.
Some capacitor data sheets specify the root mean square (RMS) value of the maximum ripple current. Use
Equation 15 to calculate the RMS ripple current the output capacitor needs to support.

8.2.2.3 Input Capacitor Selection
The TPS65263-1Q1 requires a high-quality ceramic, type X5R or X7R, input decoupling capacitor of at least 10
µF of effective capacitance on the PVIN input voltage pins. In some applications, additional bulk capacitance may
also be required for the PVIN input. The effective capacitance includes any 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 TPS65263-1Q1. The input ripple current can
be calculated using Equation 16.
Iinrms = Iout ´
(Vinmin - Vout )

(16)
The value of a ceramic capacitor varies significantly over temperature and the amount of DC bias applied to the
capacitor. The capacitance variations due to temperature can be minimized by selecting a dielectric material that
is stable over temperature. X5R and X7R ceramic dielectrics are usually selected for power regulator capacitors
because they have a high capacitance-to-volume ratio and are fairly stable over temperature. The output
capacitor must also be selected with the DC bias taken into account. The capacitance value of a capacitor
decreases as the DC bias across a capacitor increases. The input capacitance value determines the input ripple
voltage of the regulator. Use Equation 17 to calculate the input voltage ripple.

8.2.2.4 Loop Compensation
The TPS65263-1Q1 incorporates a peak current mode control scheme. The error amplifier is a transconductance
amplifier with a gain of 300 µS. A typical type II compensation circuit adequately delivers a phase margin
between 40° and 90°. Cb adds a high-frequency pole to attenuate high-frequency noise when needed. To
calculate the external compensation components, follow these steps.
1. Select switching frequency, ƒsw, that is appropriate for application depending on L and C sizes, output ripple,
EMI, and so forth. Switching frequency between 500 kHz to 1 MHz gives best trade-off between performance
and cost. To optimize efficiency, lower switching frequency is desired.
2. Set up crossover frequency, ƒc, which is typically between 1/5 and 1/20 of ƒsw.
3. RC can be determined by:

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The devices are designed to operate from an input voltage supply range between 4 and 18 V. This input power
supply should be well regulated. If the input supply is located more than a few inches from the TPS65263-1Q1
converter, additional bulk capacitance may be required in addition to the ceramic bypass capacitors. An
electrolytic capacitor with a value of 47 µF is a typical choice.
10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
Figure 66 shows the TPS65263-1Q1 on a 2-layer PCB.
Layout is a critical portion of good power-supply design. See Figure 66 for a PCB layout example. The top
contains the main power traces for PVIN, VOUT, and LX. The top layer also has connections for the remaining
pins of the TPS65263-1Q1 and a large top-side area filled with ground. The top-layer ground area should be
connected to the bottom layer ground using vias at the input bypass capacitor, the output filter capacitor, and
directly under the TPS65263-1Q1 device to provide a thermal path from the exposed thermal pad land to ground.
The bottom layer acts as ground plane connecting analog ground and power ground.
For operation at full rated load, the top-side ground area together with the bottom-side ground plane must
provide adequate heat dissipating area. Several signals paths conduct fast changing currents or voltages that
can interact with stray inductance or parasitic capacitance to generate noise or degrade the power supplies'
performance. To help eliminate these problems, bypass the PVIN 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 PVIN pins, and the ground connections. The VIN pin must also be bypassed to ground using a
low-ESR ceramic capacitor with X5R or X7R dielectric.
Because the LX connection is the switching node, the output inductor should be located close to the LX pins, and
the area of the PCB conductor minimized to prevent excessive capacitive coupling. The output filter capacitor
ground should use the same power ground trace as the PVIN input bypass capacitor. Try to minimize this
conductor length while maintaining adequate width. The small signal components should be grounded to the
analog ground path.
The FB and COMP pins are sensitive to noise so the resistors and capacitors should be located as close as
possible to the IC and routed with minimal lengths of trace. The additional external components can be placed
approximately as shown.
