2 Applications
•
•
•
In CC mode, the device is designed to support dual
channel step-up or step-down LED driver topologies.
LED current can be independently modulated
using analog or PWM dimming techniques. Analog
dimming with over 28:1 range is obtained using a
programmable 8-bit DAC. PWM dimming of LED
current is achieved either by directly modulating the
PWM input pins with the desired duty cycle, or using a
SPI-programmable 10-bit PWM counter. The optional
PDRV gate driver output can be used to drive an
external P-Channel series MOSFET.
The TPS92682-Q1 incorporates an advanced
SPI-programmable diagnostic and fault protection
mechanism including: cycle-by-cycle current limit,
output overvoltage and undervoltage protection, ILED
overcurrent protection, and thermal warning. The
device also includes an open-drain fault indicator
output per channel.
The TPS92682-Q1 includes an LH pin, when pulled
high, initiates the limp home (LH) condition. In
LH mode, the device uses a separate set of SPIprogrammed registers.

3 Description
The TPS92682-Q1 is a dual-channel, peak currentmode controller with SPI communication interface.
The device is programmable to operate in constantvoltage (CV) or constant-current (CC) modes.
In CV mode, TPS92682-Q1 can be programmed
to operate as two independent or dual-phase
Boost voltage regulators. The output voltage can
be programmed using an external resistor voltage
divider, and a SPI-programmable 8-bit DAC.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The TPS92682-Q1 device is an automotive-grade two-channel controller with Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
interface, ideally suited for exterior lighting applications. The device is optimized to achieve high-performance
solutions and features all of the functions necessary to implement LED drivers based on step-up or step-down
power converter topologies with a small form-factor at a lower cost.
The two channels of the TPS92682-Q1 device can be configured independently as CC (constant current) or
CV (constant voltage) mode. The device implements fixed-frequency peak current mode control to achieve
regulation and fast dynamic response. Each channel can be configured as boost, boost-to-battery, SEPIC, or
other converter topologies.
In CC mode, the integrated low offset and rail-to-rail current sense amplifier provide the flexibility required
to power a single string consisting of 1 to 20 series connected LEDs while maintaining 4% current accuracy
over the operating temperature range. The LED current regulation threshold is set by the analog adjust input
CHxIADJ register over 28:1 dimming range. The TPS92682-Q1 incorporates an internal 10-bit counter for
the PWM dimming function for each channel. The PWM width and frequency are programmable through the
SPI registers. Alternatively, the device can also be configured to implement direct PWM dimming based on
the duty cycle of the external PWM signal connected to PWM1 or PWM2 pins for channel-1 or channel-2,
respectively. The internal PWM signals control the GATEx and PDRVx outputs, which control the external
N-channel switching FETs and P-channel dimming FETs connected in series with LED strings.
The TPS92682-Q1 can be configured in CV mode. In this mode, the device regulates the voltage connected
to the FBx/OVx pins to an internal programmable reference voltage, set by the CHxIADJ register. In CV mode,
the TPS92682-Q1 can be used as the first stage of a two-stage LED driver in an ECU (electronic control unit)
of an exterior lighting application. The device can also be configured to operate in two-phase mode, where the
switching frequencies of the two channels are phase-shifted by 180° and the channel-1 compensation loop,
including COMP1 and the FB1/OV1, is shared between the two channels.
The TPS92682-Q1 incorporates an enhanced programmable fault feature. A selected number of faults,
including ILIMIT (cycle-by-cycle current limit), OV (output Overvoltage), UV (output Undervoltage), and OC (LED
Overcurrent), can be programmed to be latched faults, or automatically re-start the channel when the fault is
cleared and after a programmed timer is expired. In addition, the TPS92682-Q1 includes open-pin faults for the
FBx, ISNx, and RT pins. Other fault and diagnostic features include Thermal Shutdown (TSD), Thermal Warning
(TW), LED Undercurrent (UC), and POR. Each channel includes an active-low fault pin ( FLT) that is pulled low
when a fault occurs. For each fault, there is an associated fault read-bit in the register map that can be read
through SPI communication interface. For a complete list of the fault and diagnostic features, refer to the Faults
and Diagnostics section.
The TPS92682-Q1 includes a limp home (LH) function that is initiated when the LH pin is set high. In LH mode,
the operation of the device is set by the LH registers. The LH registers are programmed upon initialization of the
device. To exit the LH mode, the LH pin must be set low and the LH bit in the CFG1 register must be written to
“0”.
The TPS92682-Q1 device has numerous enhanced programmable features that can be accessed through the
4-wire SPI bus. The SPI bus consists of four signals: SSN, SCK, MOSI, and MISO. The SSN, SCK, and MOSI
pins are TTL inputs into the device.

7.3 Feature Description
The TPS92682-Q1 device implements a fixed frequency Peak Current Mode (PCM) control. In PCM, the
switching cycle starts with a rising edge of the clock. The switching cycle ends when the sensed switch current,
ViSW (added with VSLOPE), exceeds the compensator voltage, VCOMP. As shown in Figure 7-1 and Figure
7-2, a transconductance gM error amplifier generates an error signal by comparing the feedback signal and
the reference voltage, VREF. The resulting error current generates the compensator voltage VCOMP, through a
compensator impedance, connected to the COMPx pin.
For stability at high duty cycle and better noise immunity, a compensation ramp VSLOPE is added to the sensed
switch current ViSW.

7.3.1 Device Enable
The TPS92682-Q1 can be enabled or disabled by the EN pin or the software enable bits. When EN pin is pulled
low, the device enters shutdown state, where the quiescent current of the device is decreased to IIN-SHDN. In
shutdown state, the internal regulators are turned off and the registers are reset. When the voltage on the enable
pin is increased above the voltage threshold of VEN, the two channels can be enabled. In addition to the EN pin,
there are two enable bits for the two channels of the TPS92682-Q1 as shown in Table 7-2. In order for each
channel to be turned on, the associated CHxEN bit must be set to "1" in EN Register.
In addition to the EN pin and the CHxEN bits, the PWMx signals (hardware or software) must be set high and the
associated CHxIADJ must be set to a value greater than eight (refer to the CH1IADJ Register) in order for the
associated channel to be turned on.
7.3.2 Internal Regulator and Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
The device incorporates 65-V input voltage rated linear regulators to generate the 7.5-V (typical) VCC bias
supply, the 5-V (typical) VDD supply, and other internal reference voltages. The device monitors the VCC
output to implement UVLO protection. Operation is enabled when VCC exceeds the 4.5-V (typ) threshold and is
disabled when VCC drops below the 4.1-V (typical) threshold. The UVLO comparator provides a hysteresis to
avoid chatter during transitions. The UVLO thresholds are internally fixed and cannot be adjusted. An internal
current limit circuit is implemented to protect the device during VCC pin short-circuit conditions. The VCC supply
powers the internal circuitry and the N-channel gate driver outputs, GATEx. Place a bypass capacitor in the
range of 2.2 μF to 4.7 μF across the VCC output and GND to ensure proper operation. The regulator operates in
dropout when input voltage VIN falls below 7.5 V. The VCC is a regulated output of the internal regulator and is
not recommended to be driven with an external power supply.
The internal VDD regulator is used to generate supply voltage for various internal analog and digital circuits. The
supply current is internally limited to protect the device from output overload and short-circuit conditions. Place
a bypass capacitor in the range of 2.2 μF to 4.7 μF across the VDD output to GND to ensure proper operation.
The POR circuit of the device is placed at the output of the VDD regulator. The POR rise and fall thresholds are
provided in the Electrical Characteristics.
7.3.3 Oscillator
The internal clock frequency of the TPS92682-Q1 device is programmable by a single external resistor,
connected between the RT pin and the GND. The relationship between the resistor RT and the internal main
clock (CLKM) frequency is shown in Equation 1 and Figure 6-22.
fCLKM
1012
12.5 u RT
(1)
The relationship between the channel clock, CHxCLK (or the channel switching frequency fSW), and fCLKM is
shown in the SWDIV Register section. TI recommends a switching frequency setting between 100 kHz to 700
kHz for best efficiency and for optimal performance over input and output voltage operating range. Operation at
higher switching frequencies requires careful selection of N-channel MOSFET characteristics as well as detailed
analysis of switching losses.

The main clock of the TPS92682-Q1, CLKM, is generated using an internal ramp generator as shown in Figure
7-5. The internal ramp, RAMPCLKM, is compared with a reference voltage of VOSCREF to reset the ramp at
the end of the clock period, TCLKM. When the reference voltage VOSCREF is constant (1 V), the main clock
frequency is fixed. The frequency modulation of the main clock is achieved using an internal 8-bit digital counter
DAC, and by modulating the reference voltage as shown in Figure 7-6. Both modulation frequency, FM, and the
modulation magnitude, ΔFM, are programmable in the FM Register.

and has little impact on the average EMI measurement. The TPS92682-Q1 device simplifies EMI compliance
by providing the means to tune the modulation frequency, FM, and modulation magnitude, ΔFM, based on the
measured EMI signature.

The output of the FM 8-bit digital counter always resets and starts from 1 V when a register write is performed to
FM Register.
7.3.5 Gate Driver
The TPS92682-Q1 contains an N-channel gate driver that switches the output GATEx between VCC and GND.
A peak source and sink current of 500 mA allows controlled slew-rate of the MOSFET gate and drain voltages,
limiting the conducted and radiated EMI generated by switching.
The gate driver supply current, ICC(GATE), depends on the total gate drive charge (QG) of the MOSFET and
the operating frequency of the converter, fSW, ICC(GATE) = QG × fSW. Select a MOSFET with a low gate charge
specification to limit the junction temperature rise and switch transition losses.
It is important to consider a MOSFET threshold voltage when operating in the dropout region (input voltage VIN
is below the VCC regulation level). TI recommends a logic level device with a threshold voltage below 5 V when
the device is required to operate at an input voltage less than 7 V.
7.3.6 Rail-to-Rail Current Sense Amplifier
The internal rail-to-rail current sense amplifier measures the average LED current based on the differential
voltage drop between the CSPx and CSNx inputs over a common mode range of 0 V to 65 V. The differential
voltage, V(CSPx-CSNx), is amplified by a voltage-gain factor of 14 and is connected to the negative input of the
transconductance error amplifier. Accurate LED current feedback is achieved by limiting the cumulative input
offset voltage (represented by the sum of the voltage-gain error, the intrinsic current sense offset voltage,
and the transconductance error amplifier offset voltage) over the recommended common-mode voltage and
temperature range.
An optional common-mode (CFCM) or differential mode (C FDM) low-pass filter implementation, as shown in Figure
7-7, can be used to filter the effects of large output current ripple, and switching current spikes caused by diode
reverse recovery. TI recommends a filter resistance in the range of 10 Ω to 100 Ω to limit the additional offset
caused by amplifier bias current mismatch to achieve the best accuracy and line regulation.

7.3.7 Transconductance Error Amplifier
As shown in Figure 7-8, the internal transconductance error amplifier generates an error signal proportional to
the difference between the internal programmable 8-bit CHxIADJ-DAC (CH1IADJ Register) and the feedback
signal. The feedback signal is the sensed current CHxIsense in CC mode, or the sense output voltage, CHxVFB,
in CV mode. The gain gM of the error amplifier is programmable through the CHx_HG bit in the CFG1 Register.
The gain values for CHx_HG = 0 or 1 are provided in the Electrical Characteristics. Based on the value of
CHx_CV bit in Table 7-4, either CHxIsense or CHxVFB is connected to the input of the error amplifier. Therefore,
the TPS92682-Q1 device either operates in CV or CC mode.
The output of the error amplifier is connected to an external compensation network to achieve closed-loop LED
current (CC), or output voltage (CV) regulation. In most LED driver applications, a simple integral compensation
circuit consisting of a capacitor connected from COMPx output to GND provides a stable response over a
wide range of operating conditions. TI recommends a capacitor value between 10 nF and 100 nF as a good
starting point. To achieve higher closed-loop bandwidth, a proportional-integral compensator, consisting of a
series resistor and a capacitor network connected across the COMPx output and GND, is required. Application
and Implementation includes a summarized detailed design procedure.

7.3.8 Switch Current Sense
Figure 7-9 shows the simplified block diagram of the switch current sense circuitry. The ISPx input pin monitors
the main MOSFET current to implement peak current mode control. The GATEx output duty cycle is derived by
comparing the peak switch current, measured by the RIS resistor, to the internal CHx_COMP voltage threshold.
An internal slope signal, CHx_ISLOPE, is added to the measured sense voltage to prevent sub-harmonic
oscillations for duty cycles greater than 50%.
An internal leading-edge blanking (LEB) is applied to the switch current sense at the beginning of each switching
cycle by shunting the ISPx input to the ISNx (GND connection of the RIS) for the duration of the LEB time. The
LEB circuit prevents unwanted duty cycle termination due to MOSFET switching-current spike at the beginning
of the new switching cycle. The LEB time can be set to 150 ns or 75 ns (typical) using the CHxLEB bit set in
Table 7-5. For additional noise suppression, connect an external low-pass RC filter with resistor values ranging
from 100 Ω to 500 Ω and a 1000-pF capacitor across RIS.

Cycle-by-cycle current limit is accomplished by a separate internal comparator. The current limit threshold is set
based on the status of internal PWM signal and the CHxILIM setting. The current limit threshold is set to a value
programmed in the CHxILIM in Table 7-17 when PWM signal is high. The current limit threshold is set to 700 mV
(typical) when PWM signal is low. In CC mode, the transition between the two thresholds in conjunction with the
slope compensation and the error amplifier circuit allows for higher inductor current immediately after the PWM
transition, to improve LED current transient response in PWM dimming.
The device immediately terminates the GATEx and PDRVx outputs when the sensed voltage at the ISPx input
exceeds the current limit threshold. For more detail on the cycle-by-cycle current limit, refer to the Faults and
Diagnostics section.

7.3.9 Slope Compensation
Switching converters with peak current mode control are subject to subharmonic oscillation for duty cycles
greater than 50%. To avoid instability, the control scheme adds an artificial ramp to the sensed switch current
(shown in Figure 7-9). The required slope of the artificial ramp depends on the input voltage, VIN, output voltage,
VO, inductor L, and switch current sense resistor RIS. The TPS92682-Q1 device provides a programmable
slope compensation with seven levels of slope magnitude to simplify and enhance the performance of common
switching converter topologies, such as boost, boost-to-battery, and SEPIC. The slope magnitude can be
programmed through CHxISLP in the ISLOPE Register. The Application and Implementation section includes
calculations for the choice of correct slope magnitude for a given application.
7.3.10 ILED Setting in CC Mode
In CC mode, as shown in Figure 7-8, the voltage across the LED current sense resistor, V(CSP–CSN), is regulated
to the output of the programmable 8-bit CHxIADJ-DAC, scaled by the current sense amplifier voltage gain of 14.
The LED current can be linearly adjusted by writing a different value to the CHxIADJ register. The 8-bit DAC
output can be set in the range of 85 mV (CHxIADJ = 9) to 2.4 V (CHxIADJ = 255). The associated channel is
turned off for CHxIADJ ≤ 8.
7.3.11 Output Voltage Setting in CV Mode
In CV mode, as shown in Figure 7-8, the voltage at the FBx pin (output voltage divider) is regulated to the output
of the programmable 8-bit CHxIADJ-DAC. The FBx voltage can be adjusted in the range of 85 mV (CHxIADJ =
9) to 2.4 V (CHxIADJ = 255). The associated channel is turned off for CHxIADJ ≤ 8.

7.3.12 PWM Dimming
As shown in Figure 7-10, the TPS92682-Q1 device incorporates both internal and external PWM dimming. To
select between external or internal PWM dimming, the INTPWM bit in CFG1 Register must be set to "0" or "1",
respectively. If internal PWM dimming operation is selected, the state of the PWMx pins do not have any effect
on the operation of the device. For external PWM dimming, apply a square-wave signal to the PWMx pin with the
rising and falling thresholds provided in the Electrical Characteristics. The LED current modulates based on the
duty cycle of the external PWM signal, DPWM(EXT).

Figure 7-10. PWM Dimming Circuit
To use internal PWM dimming, the INTPWM bit in CFG1 Register must be set to "1". The TPS92682-Q1 device
incorporates a 10-bit PWM counter for each channel. The duty cycle of the internal PWM can be set using
a 10-bit value in the CHxPWML and CHxPWMH registers. Because CHxPWM is a 10-bit value, a PWM duty
cycle update can require two SPI writes, one to the CHxPWMH and another to the CHxPWML register. To
prevent transferring incoherent values, the contents of the two registers transfer to the CHxPWM counter only
upon the write to the CHxPWML register. Therefore, for an update to the PWM duty cycle, it is recommended
consecutively writing to CHxPWMH first and CHxPWML second. In addition, in order to avoid corrupting the
progress of the current PWM duty cycle, the update from the CHxPWM registers to the CHxPWM counter occurs
two PWMCLK before the end of each PWM period (at the count of 1022).
Due to synchronization of the external PWM with internal clock, when switching from external PWM to internal
PWM, a glitch for the total of one PWM period can be observed in the output.
The clock to the 10-bit PWM counter is related to the main clock, CLKM, by a division factor set by a 3-bit value
in the PWMDIV Register. The relation between the PWMCLK and PWM frequency with CLKM frequency are
shown in Equation 3 and Equation 4.
PWMCLK
PWMFREQ
fCLKM
PWMDIV
(3)
PWMCLK

(4)
For example, if the CLKM frequency is set to fCLKM = 800 kHz and PWMDIV = 001 (division value of 2), the PWM
frequency is PWMFREQ ≈ 390 Hz.
The phase between the internal PWM dimming for the two channels can be set to 180° if the PWMPH bit in
CFG1 Register is set to 0. For PWMPH = 1, there is zero phase shift between the internal 10-bit PWM counters
of the two channels.
The PWM signal controls the GATEx and PDRVx outputs. If PWMxINT is set low, the associated channel is
turned off, the COMPx pin is disconnected from the error amplifier, and the PDRVx output is set to VCSP to
maintain the charge on the compensation network and output capacitors. On the rising edge of the PWMxINT,
the GATEx and PDRVx outputs are enabled to ramp the inductor current to the previous steady-state value.
The COMPx pin connects to the error amplifier only when the switch current sense voltage VISPx exceeds
the COMPx voltage, CHx_comp. This connection immediately forces the converter into steady-state operation
with minimum LED current overshoot. When dimming is not required, connect the PWMx pins to the VDD pin.
An internal pull-down resistor sets the PWM inputs to logic-low and disables the device when the pins are
disconnected or left floating, and the INTPWM bit in CFG1 Register is set to the default value of "0".

7.3.13 P-Channel FET Gate Driver Output
The PDRVx output is a function of the internal PWM signal and is capable of sinking and sourcing up to 50 mA
of peak current to control a high-side series connected P-channel dimming FET. The PDRV switches between
VCSP and (VCSP – 7 V) is based on the status of the PWM signal to completely turn off and turn on the external
P-channel dimming FET. In CC mode, a series dimming FET is required to achieve high contrast ratio since it
ensures fast rise and fall times of the LED current in response to the PWM input. Without any dimming FET,
the rise and fall times are limited by the inductor slew rate and the closed-loop bandwidth of the system. In CC
mode, leave the PDRVx pin unconnected if not used. In CV mode, the PDRVx together with CSPx and CSNx
pins can be connected to GND to limit the shutdown current. The PDRVx can also be disabled by setting the
CHxPDRVEN bit in Table 7-3 to zero.
7.3.14 Soft Start
The soft start feature helps the regulator gradually reach the steady-state operating point, thus reducing start-up
stresses and current surges. The device clamps the COMPx pin to the output of the SSDAC plus the threshold
voltage of a P-FET, until the LED current or the output voltage approaches the regulation threshold. The soft
start is controlled with an 8-bit DAC which ramps from 0 V to 2.8 V during start-up of an associated channel.
The rate of the soft-start ramp (or the ramp time) can be controlled by programming the clock of the internal
digital ramp counter. The clock of the digital ramp counter is related to the associated channel clock (switching
frequency fSW) by:
SSCLK
CHxCLK
SSxDIV
(5)
The SSxDIV is a division factor provided in the SOFTSTART Register. For example, if the channel switching
frequency is set to 400 kHz, the soft-start ramp time can be programmed between 1.3 ms and 64 ms. It is
important to note that the ramp time is the time for the SSDAC output to ramp from 0 V to 2.8 V (digital ramp
counter to count from 0 to 255), but the controller can reach the regulation point before the ramp is completed.

When programming the soft-start ramp, It is essential to ensure that the soft-start ramp time is longer than the
time required to charge the output capacitor.
To initiate the soft-start ramp, the PWM signal (internal or external) must be set high. If PWM dimming occurs
during the soft-start period, the digital ramp counter holds the ramp value when PWM = LOW, and re-starts the
ramp from the last ramp value when PWM = HIGH. Figure 7-12 shows an example of this feature.

7.3.15 Two-Phase Operation
The TPS92682-Q1 device can be programmed in two-phase mode by setting the 2PH bit to "1" in CFG1
Register. In two-phase mode, the CH1_comp is internally connected to the CH2_comp with 500 Ω (max) of
resistance. In this case, the error amplifier of channel-2 is disabled and only the error amplifier of channel-1
connects to both COMP1 and COMP2 pins. TI recommends that external compensators be connected to both
COMP1 and COMP2 pins, and that these two pins be shorted together externally.
Two-phase mode uses only the channel-1 soft-start DAC and controls both phases. To generate the channel
clocks, only the division factor for the channel-1, programmed in SWDIV Register, is used. The two channel
clocks (switching frequency fSW) are the same and are 180° out-of-phase.
In two-phase mode, in the case of internal PWM, only CH1PWM is used for both channels. When external PWM
is used, it is recommended to short both PWMx pins together and use only one PWM signal for both channels.
A selected number of the faults (CH2_OV, CH2_UV, CH2_OC, and CH2_UC) have no effect in the operation of
two-phase mode. For more detail about faults and diagnostics in TPS92682-Q1, refer to Faults and Diagnostics
section.
7.3.15.1 Current Sharing In Two-Phase
In two-phase operation, the current sharing between the two phases depends on the mismatch between the
current sense circuitry of the two channels. The TPS92682-Q1 incorporates a feature and a register setting
to improve the current sharing in two-phase operation. Table 7-40 includes three bits of calibration settings,
CHxCAL2:0, which introduce an offset of 0 to 17.5 mV (with a resolution of 2.5 mV) to the channel switch
current sense voltage. The calibration offset can be used to compensate for the mismatch offset between the
two channels.
The following procedure is recommended for offset calibration between the two phases in a CV two-phase
design:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
26
In two-phase CV, Comp1 and Comp2 pins are connected together.
Configure the registers for the application and turn on the two-phase converter.
Set the load at the output of the two-phase converter to half of the maximum load in the application.
Set CH2GOFF = 1 and CH1GOFF = 0 in Table 7-40. This setting turns off channel-2. Measure the COMP
voltage as shown in Figure 7-13 and record the measurement as VCOMP1.
Set the CH1GOFF = 1 and CH2GOFF = 0 in Table 7-40. This setting turns off channel-1. Measure the COMP
voltage and record the measurement as VCOMP2.
The difference between the two measurements, ΔVOFST = VCOMP1 – VCOMP2, is the offset mismatch between
the two phases.
By setting a similar offset voltage through CHxCAL bits, the mismatch can be corrected (offset must be set in
CH2CAL if VCOMP1 > VCOMP2, and in CH1CAL if VCOMP1 < VCOMP2).
At the end of the procedure, set both CH1GOFF and CH2GOFF bits to zero.

7.3.16 Faults and Diagnostics
The TPS92682-Q1 includes a comprehensive configurable faults and diagnostics feature. Table 7-1 shows the
list of the faults and diagnostics. A selected number of the faults (UVLO, RTOPEN, TW, TSD, and POR) are
shared between the two channels.
As shown in Table 7-1, a selected number of the faults can be enabled or disabled using FLT EN-bits in the
FEN1 and FEN2 registers. The rest of the faults and diagnostics feature are always enabled and operational.
All the faults and diagnostics features, except FBOPEN, TSD, and UVLO, have an associated Fault-Read-bit in
the FLT1 and FLT2 registers. Upon occurrence of the fault, the associated Fault-Read-bit is set in the register
map. Reading these registers clears the bits that are set if the condition no longer exists. The clearing of the
Fault-Read-bits happens at the end of the SPI transfer read response, not at the end of the read command.
Although FBOPEN fault does not have a dedicated Fault-Read-bit, this fault sets the OV-fault read bit.
In TPS92682-Q1, the OV, UV, ILIM, and OC faults can be configured to be a non-latched fault in the FLATEN
Register. If a fault is configured as non-latched, upon occurrence of the fault, the associated channel turns off.
The channel performs a soft start after expiration of a configurable fault timer and when the fault is cleared. In
latched fault condition, the associated channel is turned off and remains off until the channel enable-bits are
re-programmed in the EN Register.

As shown in Table 7-1, all faults, except UVLO, UC, and TW, set the active low fault pins, FLT1 and FLT2. Figure
7-14 shows the functionality of the fault pins. SYNC/ FLT2 is a dual function pin. When the SYNCEN bit in the
EN Register is set to "1", SYNC/ FLT2 is an input pin and a square wave signal with the desired fCLKM frequency
must be applied to this pin. In this case, faults on both channels are ORed and applied to the FLT1 pin.

7.3.16.1 Main Fault Timer (MFT)
For each channel of the TPS92682-Q1, there is a 14-bit counter that implements a main fault timer. The timer
can be programmed by a 4-bit value for each channel in the MFT Register. The MFT time can be set to a value
between 1000 and 16383 times the input clock period. The input clock of the MFT is the channel clock, CHxCLK
(the switching frequency fSW). For example, for a channel with a switching frequency of fSW = 400 kHz, the timer
can be programmed from 2.5 to 41 ms.
Only UV and OC faults can trigger the MFT. When either of these two faults are enabled as a non-latched
fault, the fault event turns off the channel and triggers the MFT. The associated channel is turned back on by a
soft-start process when the MFT count is completed and the fault is cleared.
7.3.16.2 OV Fault
If CHxOVEN is set to "1" in the FEN1 Register, the output over voltage fault is enabled. When VFBx exceeds the
threshold voltage OVTHR, the CHx_OV fault is set high and turns off the associated channel. The OVTHR voltage
is set by OV_DAC; OVTHR = VFBREF × OV%, where OV% is provided in the OV Register. The VFBREF in CC
mode is set to 1.228 V (typical), and in CV mode, is set to the output of the CHxIADJ register. When CHx_OV is
high, OVTHR is set to VFBREF and a 20 µA hysteresis current is applied to the feedback resistor divider. For the
boost converter with the output voltage sensing according to Figure 7-15, VOUT must decrease to a level shown
in Equation 6 for the CHx_OV to be cleared.

If the CHxOVFL bit is set to "1" in the FLATEN Register, the OV fault is configured as a latched fault and the
associated channel turns off with the rising edge of CHx_OV. The channel can be turned on again only by
re-setting the CHxEN bit in the EN Register.
For CHxOVFL = 0, the OV fault is a non-latched fault. In this case, the associated channel turns off when the
OV fault occurs, but the channel goes through a restart and soft-start ramp when CHx_OV goes low. Figure 7-16

7.3.16.3 UV Fault
If CHxUVEN is set to "1" in the FEN1 Register, the output under voltage fault is enabled. Figure 7-15 shows
when VFBx decreases below the UVTHR of 50 mV (typ.), CHx_UV is set high and turns off the associated
channel. If the CHxUVFL bit is set to "1" in the FLATEN Regiser, the UV fault is configured as a latched fault and
the associated channel turns off and remains off with the rising edge of CHx_UV. The channel can be turned on
again only by re-setting the CHxEN bit to "1". For CHxUVFL = 0, the UV fault is a non-latched fault. In this case,
the associated channel turns off when a UV fault occurs, but the channel goes through a restart and soft-start
ramp when CHx_UV is cleared and the MFT is expired.
The UV fault is disabled during the soft-start ramp if the CHxRFEN bit is set to "0" in the FEN1 Register.
7.3.16.4 ILIM Fault
Figure 7-9 shows that the cycle-by-cycle switch current limit is achieved by comparing the sensed switch current
with a programmable ILIM threshold and terminating the duty cycle when VISPx ≥ V ILIM(THR). The ILIMTHR can be
set using a 2-bit value in the ILIM Register. If CHxILIMEN is set to zero in the FEN2 Register, the ILIM fault is
disabled. However, the cycle-by-cycle current limit is always active as long as the sensed switch current exceeds
ILIMTHR.

SLUSCX8C – MARCH 2019 – REVISED MARCH 2021
If CHxILIMEN is set to "1", the ILIM fault is enabled, and it can be set as a latched or non-latched fault. There
is an ILIM event counter for each channel that counts the number of ILIM fault events. When the ILIM event
counter reaches a programmed value, the associated channel is turned off. The maximum number of ILIM fault
events can be set using a 2-bit CHxILIMCNT in ILIM Register. The ILIM event counter is reset every 100-CHxCLK
cycles to prevent transients and non-real faults, resulting in an unwanted channel disable.
If CHxILIMFL is set to "1" in the FLATEN Register, the ILIM event is set to a latched fault. The associated
channel is turned off and remains off when the ILIM event counter reaches the programmed value. The channel
can be turned on again only by re-setting the CHxEN bit to "1" in the EN Register.
For CHxILIMFL = 0, the ILIM fault is a non-latched fault. When the ILIM event counter reaches the programmed
value, the associated channel is turned off and an ILIM fault timer, IFT, is triggered. The associated channel is
turned back on by a soft-start ramp when the ILIM fault timer count is completed and the output of the ILIM event
counter is cleared. The ILIM fault timer can be programmed using a 2-bit value CHxIFT in the IFT Register. The
IFT time can be set to a value between four and 32 cycles of the input clock. The input clock of the IFT is the
channel clock, CHxCLK (the switching frequency fSW). For example, for a channel with a switching frequency of
fSW = 400 kHz, the timer can be programmed from 10 to 80 µs.
Figure 7-17 shows the simplified functional block diagram of the ILIM fault. Figure 7-18 shows the progress of
the cycle by cycle current limit, the ILIM event counter (IFEC), the ILIM Fault Timer (IFT), and the restart of the
channel for a non-latched ILIM fault.

7.3.16.5 UVLO
For details on the UVLO fault, refer to the Internal Regulator and Undervoltage Lockout section.
7.3.16.6 ILED Over Current (OC)
When CHxOCEN is set to "1" in FEN2 Register, the ILED overcurrent fault is enabled, and the voltage across
the current sense inputs (CSPx and CSNx) is monitored. The device sets the OC fault signal when the voltage at
the output of the current sense amplifier exceeds the regulation set point VIADJ by 50%. The OC fault threshold is
calculated as follows:
V CSPx
CSNx
1.5 u
VIADJ
14
(7)
If the CHxOCFL bit is set to "1" in FLATEN Register, the OC fault is configured as a latched fault and the
associated channel turns off and remains off with the rising edge of CHx_OC. The channel can be turned on
again only by re-setting the CHxEN bit to "1" in EN Register. For CHxOCFL = 0, the OC fault is a non-latched
fault. In this case, the associated channel turns off when an OC fault occurs, but the channel goes through a
restart and soft-start ramp when CHx_OC is cleared and the MFT is expired.
7.3.16.7 ILED Undercurrent (UC)
The ILED Undercurrent (UC) is a diagnostic feature and not a fault event. Therefore, the UC event sets the fault
read bits in the FLT2 register only, and does not have any effect on the operation of the associated channel or
trigger the fault pins.
The device sets the UC event when the voltage at the output of the current sense amplifier decreases by 50%
from the regulation set point VIADJ. The UC threshold is calculated as follows:
V CSPx
CSNx
0.5 u
VIADJ
14
(8)
When PWM dimming, the UC fault read bit might be set during the time when PWM is low.
7.3.16.8 ISNOPEN, FBOPEN, and RTOPEN Faults
The device can detect open pin fault on ISNx, FBx, and RT pins. If any of these pins are opened during
operation, the device turns off the associated channel (or both channels for RT open pin). The channels can be
turned on again only by re-setting the CHxEN bits high and if the faults are removed.
7.3.16.9 TW and TSD
The thermal warning (TW) bit is set in the FLT1 Register when the junction temperature exceeds 150°C (typ).
The TW event is a diagnostic feature and not a fault event. As a result, TW does not have any effect on the
operation of the device.
Internal thermal shutdown (TSD) circuitry is implemented to protect the controller in the event the junction
temperature exceeds a value of 175°C. In the event of TSD, the controller is forced into a shutdown mode,
disabling the internal regulator. This feature is designed to prevent overheating and damage to the device.
7.3.16.10 COMPx Pull-Down and Comp-Low signal
As shown in Figure 7-8, an internal switch pulls down the COMPx pin when there is a fault. The Comp-PullDown discharges the compensator capacitors, such that the converter start-up always begins from a known
state.
The converter does not start unless the COMPx voltage decreases below 100 mV (when CHx_complow goes
high).

Upon POR, all the register settings are reset to their default values and both channels are turned off. The device
enters functional modes if the main clock, CLKM, is active.
7.4.2 Normal Operation
In Normal operation mode, the registers can be programmed and the channels can be turned on. To operate in
this mode, the LH pin must be low. The state machine for this mode is shown in Figure 7-20 and Figure 7-21.

State 0: After POR, all the registers are reset to their default values, and the two channels are off.
State 1 (CHx_EN-BIT = 0): In this state, the device registers are ready to be programmed. Read FLT1 and
FLT2 registers to clear all the fault read bits and the PC bit. Set the FPINRST bit in the EN register in order
for the fault pins to be cleared. All the initializations must be completed before turning on the channels. The
device stays in state-1 unless the condition of CHx_IADJ > 8 is met.
State 2 (CHx_EN-BIT = 1): The device advances to state-2 when the CHx_EN bit is set to "1". In this
state, all the necessary conditions for initiating the soft-start ramp are checked. The CHx_complow signal
and CHx_PWM are high, and the condition of CHx_IADJ > 8 is met. If a latched fault occurs in this state,
the CHx_comp pin is pulled low, the CHx_EN bits are set to zero and the device returns to state-1. For a
non-latched fault, the device remains in this mode until the fault is removed.
State 3 (SSDAC_RAMP): The SSDAC_RAMP state begins when all the conditions for the soft-start ramp
initialization are met. In this state, the soft-start ramp DAC increments only when CHx_PWM is high. For
CHx_PWM = LOW, the ramp is held constant. The DAC ramp re-starts the increment from the previous
value at the next PWM dimming cycle, and when CHx_PWM = HIGH. If a latched-fault occurs in this state,
the CHx_comp pin is pulled low, the CHx_EN bit is set to zero, and the device returns to state-1. For a
non-latched fault, the associated channel is turned off, the CHx_comp pin is pulled low and the device returns
to state-2. At the end of the soft-start ramp, read the FLT1 and FLT2 registers and set the FPINRST bit in the
EN register in order for the fault read-bits and the fault pins to be cleared.

7.4.3 Limp Home
The TPS92682-Q1 device enters the limp home (LH) mode, when the LH pin is pulled high (VDD, or logic level
voltage). In LH mode, the device sets the operation of the device based on the SPI programmable LH-registers
(register addresses 0x17 to 0x24). The LH-registers should be programmed during initialization of the device. To
exit the LH mode, the LH pin must be pulled low, and the LH bit in CFG1 Register must be written to "0". The LH
bit is set to "1" when the LH pin is pulled high. Writing a value of "1" to the LH bit does not have any effect and
does not change the operation of the device.
7.5 Programming
The programming of the TPS92682-Q1 registers can be performed through a serial interface communication.
The 4-wire control interface in the TPS92682-Q1 device is compatible with the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
bus. A Micro-Controller-Unit (MCU) can write to and read from the device registers to configure the channel
operation and enable or disable a specific channel.
7.5.1 Serial Interface
The SPI bus consists of four signals: SSN, SCK, MOSI, and MISO. The SSN, SCK, and MOSI pins are TTL
inputs into the TPS92682-Q1 while the MISO pin is an open-drain output. The SPI bus can be configured for
both star-connect and daisy chain hardware connections.
A bus transaction is initiated by the MCU creating a falling edge on SSN. While SSN is low, the input data
present on the MOSI pin is sampled on the rising edge of SCK, with MS-bit first. The output data is asserted on
the MISO pin at the falling edge of the SCK. Figure 7-22 shows the data transition and sampling edges of SCK.

Figure 7-22. SPI DATA Format
A valid transfer requires a non-zero integer multiple of 16 SCK cycles (16, 32, 48, and so forth). If SSN is pulsed
low and no SCK pulses are issued before SSN rises, a SPI error is reported. Similarly, if SSN is raised before
the 16th rising edge of SCK, the transfer is aborted and a SPI error is reported. If SSN is held low after the 16th
falling edge of SCK and additional SCK edges occur, the data continues to flow through the TPS92682-Q1 shift
register and out of the MISO pin. When SSN transitions from low-to-high, the internal digital block decodes the
most recent 16 bits that were received prior to the SSN rising edge.
SSN must transition to high after a multiple of 16 SCK cycles for a transaction to be valid and does not set the
SPI error bit. In the case of a write transaction, the TPS92682-Q1 logic performs the requested operation when
SSN transitions high. In the case of a read transaction, the read data is output during the next frame, regardless
of whether a SPI error has occurred.
The data bit on MOSI is shifted into an internal 16-bit shift register (MS-bit first) while data is simultaneously
shifted out of the MISO pin. While SSN is high (bus idle), MISO is tri-stated by the open-drain driver. While
SSN is low, MISO is driven according to the 16-bit data pattern being shifted out based on the prior received
command. At the falling edge of the SSN, to begin a new transaction, MISO is driven with the MS-bit of the
outbound data, and is updated on each subsequent falling edge of SCK.
7.5.2 Command Frame
The command frames are the only defined frame-format that are sent from master to slave on MOSI. A
command frame can be either a read command or a write command. A Command frame consists of a CMD bit,

six bits of ADDRESS, a PARITY bit (odd parity), and eight bits of DATA. The format of the Command frame is
shown in Figure 7-23. The bit sequence is as follows:
1. The COMMAND bit (CMD). CMD = 1 means the transfer is a write command; CMD = 0 means it is a read
command.
2. Six bits of ADDRESS (A5..A0)
3. The PARITY bit (PAR). This bit is set by the following equation: PARITY = XNOR(CMD, A5..A0, D7..D0).
4. Eight bits of DATA (D7..D0). For read commands, the DATA bits must be set to zero.
Both the Read and the Write Command follow the Command frame format.

If any of these conditions are true, the TPS92682 sets the SPE bit high in the next response frame. A write
command with a SPI Error (not 16-bit aligned or bad parity) does NOT write to the register being addressed.
Similarly, a read command to FLT1 or FLT2 does not clear any active fault bits in those registers if the command
has a SPI Error.
7.6 TPS92682 Registers
The SPI-accessible registers are 8-bits wide and exist in a 6-bit-addressable register array (0x00 through 0x3F).
The registers in the TPS92682 device contain programmed information and operating status. Upon power-up
the registers are reset to their default values. Writes to unlisted addresses are not permitted and may result in
undesired operation. Reads of unlisted addresses return the zero value.
Reserved bits (“RSVD”) must be written with ‘0’ values when writing. Registers are read/write unless indicated in
the description of the register. Table 7-2 lists the TPS92682 register map.

LH:
This bit is latched high when the LH pin is set high. The LH bit remains high until this bit is written back to
zero through SPI (the LH pin cannot set this bit to zero). If the LH bit is high, the LH registers are used to
control the logic instead of the normal registers. The part comes out of LH mode when LH pin is pulled low
and the LH bit is written to 0.

and the channels can be turned on. To clear the PC bit, FLT1 register should be read. The clearing of the
Fault-Read-bits happens at the end of the SPI transfer read response, not at the end of the read command.
TW: Thermal Warning bit
CHxOV: Output overvoltage fault (CH2OV is disabled if 2PH is set to '1').
CHxUV: Output undervoltage fault (CH2UV is disabled if 2PH is set to '1').
7.6.19 FLT2 Register (read only)
FLT2 register bits are set if a selected fault shown in Table 7-21 occurs. Reading this register clears the bits that
are set, if the associated faults no longer exist. Note that the clearing of the bits happens at the end of the read
response SPI transfer, not at the end of the read command SPI transfer.

8 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, as well as validating and testing their design
implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information General Design Considerations
The TPS92682-Q1 can be configured both in CC and CV mode. In both cases, the following general design
procedures are applicable.
8.1.1 Switching Frequency, fSW
To set the switching frequency for each channel, refer to the Oscillator section.
8.1.2 Duty Cycle Considerations
The switch duty cycle, D, defines the converter operation and is a function of the input and output voltages. In
steady state, the duty cycle is derived using the expression:
Boost:
D
VO
VIN
VO
(9)
Buck-Boost:
D
VO
VO VIN
(10)
The minimum duty cycle, DMIN, and maximum duty cycle, DMAX, are calculated by substituting maximum
input voltage, VIN(MAX), and the minimum input voltage, VIN(MIN), respectively in the previous expressions. The
minimum duty cycle achievable by the device is determined by the leading edge blanking period and the
switching frequency. The maximum duty cycle is limited by the internal oscillator to 90% (typ) to allow for
minimum off-time. It is necessary for the operating duty cycle to be within the operating limits of the device to
ensure closed-loop regulation over the specified input and output voltage range.
8.1.3 Main Power MOSFET Selection
The power MOSFET is required to sustain the maximum switch node voltage, VSW, and switch RMS current
derived based on the converter topology. TI recommends a drain voltage VDS rating of at least 10% greater than
the maximum switch node voltage to ensure safe operation.
The worst case MOSFET RMS current for Boost and Buck-Boost topology depends on the maximum output
power, PO(MAX), and is calculated for Boost in Equation 11 and for Buck-Boost in Equation 12.

8.1.4 Rectifier Diode Selection
A Schottky diode (when used as a rectifier) provides the best efficiency due to its low forward voltage drop and
near-zero reverse recovery time. TI recommends a diode with a reverse breakdown voltage, VD(BR), greater than
or equal to MOSFET drain-to-source voltage, VDS, for reliable performance. It is important to understand the
leakage current characteristics of the Schottky diode, especially at high operating temperatures as it impacts the
overall converter operation and efficiency.
The diode power rating and package is selected based on the calculated current, the ambient temperature and
the maximum allowable temperature rise.
8.1.5 Switch Current Sense Resistor
The switch current sense resistor, RIS, is used to implement peak current mode control and to set the peak
switch current limit. The value of RIS is selected to protect the main switching MOSFET under fault conditions.
RIS can be calculated based on peak inductor current, IL(PK), and switch current limit threshold, VILIM(THR).

The use of a 1-nF and 100-Ω low-pass filter is optional. The recommended filter resistor value is less than 500 Ω
to limit its influence on the internal slope compensation signal.
8.1.6 Slope Compensation
The magnitude of internal artificial ramp, VSLP, is set by the ISLOPE register shown in Table 7-7. The slope of
the artificial ramp is VSLP / TSW, where TSW is the switching period. Equation 14 shows a choice of VSLP, which is
sufficient for the stability of the Boost or Buck-Boost topologies over the entire range of duty-cycle D. In practice,
slightly smaller VSLP can be selected for a given application. The value of VSLP in Equation 14 is determined by
the inductor, L, the switch current sense resistor, RIS, output voltage, VO, and the switching period, TSW.

As described in the Soft Start section, the ramp can be programmed using SOFTSTART Register. The soft-start
time, tSS, is the time for the internal digital ramp to complete the 256 counts (from 0-V to 2.8-V typ). Program the
SOFTSTART Register with a SSxDIV that is found using Equation 15. The maximum time, tSS, for each channel

8.2 Application Information CC Mode
The TPS92682-Q1 controller, when configured in CC mode, is suitable for implementing step-up or step-down
LED driver topologies including BOOST, BUCK-BOOST, SEPIC, and so forth. This section presents the design
process for the BOOST and BUCK-BOOST converters. The expressions derived for the BUCK-BOOST topology
can be altered to select components for a 1:1 coupled-inductor SEPIC converter. The design procedure can be

8.2.1 Inductor Selection
The choice of inductor sets the continuous conduction mode (CCM) and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM)
boundary condition. Therefore, one approach of selecting the inductor value is by deriving the relationship
between the output power corresponding to CCM-DCM boundary condition, PO(BDRY), and inductance, L. This
approach ensures CCM operation in battery-powered LED driver applications that are required to support
different LED string configurations with a wide range of programmable LED current set points. The CCM-DCM
boundary condition can be estimated either based on the lowest LED current and the lowest output voltage
requirements for a given application or as a fraction of maximum output power, PO(MAX).

The output capacitors are required to attenuate the discontinuous or large ripple output current, and achieve the

When choosing the output capacitors, it is important to consider the ESR and the ESL characteristics as they
directly impact the LED current ripple. Ceramic capacitors are the best choice due to their low ESR, high
ripple current rating, long lifetime, and good temperature performance. When selecting ceramic capacitors, it
is important to consider the derating factors associated with higher temperature and the DC bias operating
conditions. TI recommends an X7R dielectric with voltage rating greater than maximum LED stack voltage. An
aluminum electrolytic capacitor can be used in parallel with ceramic capacitors to provide bulk energy storage.

8.2.3 Input Capacitor Selection
The input capacitor, CIN, reduces the input voltage ripple and stores energy to supply input current during
input voltage or PWM dimming transients. The series inductor in the Boost and SEPIC topologies provides
continuous input current and requires a smaller input capacitor to achieve desired input voltage ripple, ΔvIN(PP).
The Buck-Boost and Flyback topologies have discontinuous input current and require a larger capacitor to
achieve the same input voltage ripple. Based on the switching frequency, fSW, and the maximum duty cycle,
DMAX, the input capacitor value can be calculated for each channel as follows:

X7R dielectric-based ceramic capacitors are the best choice due to their low ESR, high ripple current rating, and
good temperature performance. For applications using PWM dimming, TI recommends large bulk capacitors in
addition and in parallel to the ceramic capacitors to minimize the voltage deviation due to large input current
transients generated in conjunction with the rising and falling edges of the LED current.
Decouple the VIN pin with a 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor, placed as close as possible to the device, and optionally
in series with a 10-Ω resistor to create a 160-kHz low-pass filter.

Using a first-order approximation, the converter transfer function can be modeled as a single pole created by the
output capacitor and the LED string dynamic resistance, rD. In the boost and buck-boost topologies, the transfer
function has a right half-plane zero created by the inductor, and the DC output current ILED. The ESR of the

The feedback transfer function includes the current sense resistor and the loop compensation of the
transconductance amplifier. A compensation network at the output of the error amplifier is used to configure
loop gain and phase characteristics. A simple capacitor, CCOMP, from COMPx to GND (as shown in Figure 8-4)
provides integral compensation and creates a pole at the origin. Alternatively, a network of RCOMP, CCOMP, and
CHF, shown in Figure 8-5, can be used to implement Proportional-Integral (PI) compensation to create a pole at
the origin, a low-frequency zero, and a high-frequency pole.

8.2.6 Overvoltage and Undervoltage Protection

RFBx2, from the output voltage VO to GND. If the LEDs are referenced to a potential other than GND, as in the
BUCK-BOOST, the output voltage is sensed and translated to ground by using a PNP transistor and level-shift
resistors, as shown in Figure 8-2 for the channel-2. The Overvoltage turnoff threshold, VO(OV), is:

8.2.7 Series P-Channel MOSFET Selection
In the applications with PWM dimming, the device requires a P-channel MOSFET placed in series with the LED
load. Select a P-channel MOSFET with gate-to-source voltage rating of 10 V or higher and with a drain-to-source
breakdown voltage rating greater than the output voltage. Ensure that the drain current rating of the P-channel
MOSFET exceeds the programmed LED current by at least 10%.
It is important to consider the FET input capacitance and on-resistance as it impacts the accuracy and efficiency
of the LED driver. TI recommends a FET with lower input capacitance and gate charge to minimize the errors
caused by rise and fall times when PWM dimming at low duty cycles is applied.

The loop gain T(s) is the product of the converter transfer function GVVC(s) and the feedback transfer function
GC(s). The TPS92682-Q1 device, when configured as a BOOST voltage regulator, is normally followed by a
second stage switching converter, which acts as a power sink load. In this case, the converter transfer function,
GVVC(s), can be approximated as shown in Equation 46. The GVVC(s) has a low frequency pole, ωP1, and a high
frequency pole, ωP2, when the converter operates in CCM. In DCM, ωP2 can be ignored. In a BOOST topology,
the transfer function has a right half-plane zero.

The feedback transfer function includes the voltage divider gain (HFB = RFB1 / (RFB1 + RFB2)) and the
transconductance amplifier gain. A compensation network at the output of the error amplifier is used to configure
loop gain and phase characteristics. In CV BOOST application, a Proportional-Integral (PI) compensation is
recommended. A network of RCOMP, CCOMP, and CHF, shown in Figure 8-9, can be used to implement PI
compensation to create a pole at the origin, a low-frequency zero, and a high-frequency pole.
The feedback transfer function is defined as follows.

The pole at the origin minimizes output steady-state error. High bandwidth is achieved with the PI compensator
by introducing a phase lead using a low-frequency zero.
PI compensator component values can be found by selecting a reasonable bandwidth and phase-margin. It is
recommended to select a bandwidth of ωC smaller than the RHP zero ωZ by a factor of KC in the range of 5 to
10. Assuming ωC = ωZ / KC and ωC >> ωP1:

8.4.2.4 Inductor Selection
The inductor is selected to meet the CCM-DCM boundary power requirement, PO(BDRY). In most applications,
PO(BDRY) is set to be 1/3 of the maximum output power, PO(MAX). The inductor value is calculated for typical input
voltage, VIN(TYP), and output voltage, VO(TYP). From Equation 18, the inductor L is calculated to be:
L ≥ 19.5 µH
The value of L = 22 µH is selected for this application.
Ensure that the inductor saturation current rating is greater than 1.2 × IL(PK) found from Equation 20:
IL(PK) = 3.9 A
8.4.2.5 Output Capacitor Selection
The specified peak-to-peak LED current ripple, ΔiLED(PP), is:
ΔiLED(PP) = RRiLED × ILED(MAX) = 22 mA
The output capacitance required to achieve the target LED current ripple can be obtained from Equation 22. The
resulting capacitance value is calculated to be: COUT ≥ 17.5 µF.
Four 4.7-µF 100-V ceramic capacitors are used in parallel to achieve a combined required output capacitance.
8.4.2.6 Input Capacitor Selection
The input capacitor is required to reduce switching noise conducted through the input terminal and to reduce the
input impedance of the LED driver. Equation 25 is used to calculate the required capacitance of CIN ≥ 10 µF to
limit peak-to-peak input voltage ripple, ΔvIN(PP), to 20 mV.
Two 4.7-µF, 50-V ceramic capacitors are used in parallel to achieve the combined input capacitance of 9.4 µF.
As shown in Figure 8-11, an additional 33-µF 50-V electrolytic capacitor and more ceramic capacitors are also
used at the input terminal to further decrease the overshoot and undershoot of VIN during PWM dimming.
8.4.2.7 Main N-Channel MOSFET Selection
Ensure that the MOSFET ratings exceed the maximum output voltage and RMS switch current.
VDS = VO(OV) × 1.1 = 55 V
The maximum RMS switch current can be found from Equation 11 to be 3.3 A.
An N-channel MOSFET with a voltage rating of 100 V and a current rating of more than 4 A is required for this
design.
8.4.2.8 Rectifier Diode Selection
Select a diode with a reverse breakdown voltage, VD(BR), greater than or equal to MOSFET drain-to-source
voltage, VDS, for reliable performance.
The DC current rating of the diode rectifier for the Boost LED driver must be greater than ILED(MAX).
8.4.2.9 Setting ILED and Selecting RCS
The LED current can be programmed by writing an 8-bit value to the CH1IADJ Register, and as described in the
Programming LED Current section.
The value of the current sense resistor, RCS, can be selected to result in the ILED(MAX) for the maximum
programmed value of 255 in the CHxIADJ register.
RCS
2.4
14 u ILED(MAX)
(57)
Substituting ILED(MAX) = 0.55 A in Equation 57 results in RCS = 0.31 Ω. A current sense value of 0.3 Ω is selected
for this design.

8.4.2.10 Setting Switch Current Limit
As shown in Equation 13, the switch current limit is determined by the switch current sense resistor, RIS, and
the switch current threshold. For VILIM(THR) = 250 mV and 1.2 × IL(PK) = 4.7 A, RIS ≤ 53 mΩ. A standard sense
resistor of RIS = 40 mΩ is selected for this application.
8.4.2.11 Slope Compensation
The recommended slope compensation magnitude can be obtained from Equation 14, VSLP ≥ 100 mV.
The VSLP can be programmed in the ISLOP Register. The ISLOPE =011 is selected, which corresponds with
VSLP = 150 mV.
8.4.2.12 Compensator Parameters
Proportional-Integral Compensator is selected for this design. The initial compensator component values can
be obtained from Equation 32, Equation 33, and Equation 34 The final values are tuned to get the best overall
dynamic performance.
CCOMP = 33 nF
CHF = 3.3 nF
RCOMP = 715 Ω
It is be noted that the above compensator components are fine-tuned to provide improved transient performance
in PWM dimming.
8.4.2.13 Overvoltage Protection
The output Overvoltage level is programmed using a resistor divider, RFB2 and RFB1, from the output voltage, VO,
to GND. RFB2 can be calculated from the VOV(HYS) = 2.4 V and Equation 37:
RFB2 = 120 kΩ
RFB1 can be calculated from Equation 35 and the required value of VO(OV) = 50 V:
RFB1 = 3 kΩ
8.4.2.14 Series P-Channel MOSFET Selection
In applications with PWM dimming, the device requires a P-channel MOSFET placed in series with the LED
load. Select a P-channel MOSFET with a gate-to-source voltage rating of 10 V or higher and with a drain-tosource breakdown voltage rating greater than the output voltage. Ensure that the drain current rating of the
P-channel MOSFET exceeds the programmed LED current by at least 10%. It is important to consider the FET
input capacitance and on-resistance as it impacts the accuracy and efficiency of the LED driver. TI recommends
a FET with lower input capacitance and gate charge to minimize the errors caused by rise and fall times when
PWM dimming at low duty cycles is applied.
8.4.3 CC Buck-Boost Design Requirements
Buck-Boost LED drivers provide the flexibility needed in applications, where the load voltage (LED string voltage)
maybe less or more than the input battery voltage or the application supports multiple LED load configurations.
For such applications, it is necessary to modify the design procedure presented to account for the wider range of
output voltage and LED current specifications. Table 8-4 shows the design parameters for the Buck-Boost (BtB)
LED driver application.

8.4.4 CC Buck-Boost Detailed Design Procedure
In the following section, the detailed design procedure for the CC Buck-Boost LED driver is provided.
8.4.4.1 Calculating Duty Cycle
From Equation 10 and the input and output characteristics in Table 8-4, you can solve for DTYP, DMAX, and DMIN.
DTYP = 0.58
DMAX = 0.82
DMIN = 0.32
8.4.4.2 Setting Switching Frequency
The RT value that sets the internal clock is calculated from Equation 56 in the CC Boost Detailed Design
Procedure section. For the default division factor of 2 in the SWDIV Register, the value for fSW = 400 kHz can be
obtained.
8.4.4.3 Setting Dither Modulation Frequency
Frequency modulation is shared between both channels of the TPS92682-Q1. As a result, the same frequency
modulation is applied to both Boost and Buck-Boost LED drivers.
8.4.4.4 Inductor Selection
The inductor is selected to meet the CCM-DCM boundary power requirement, PO(BDRY). Typically, the boundary
condition is set to enable CCM operation at the lowest possible operating power. The inductor value is calculated
for typical input voltage, VIN(TYP), and output voltage, VO(TYP). From Equation 19, the inductor L is calculated to
be:
L = 23.4 µH
The value of L = 22 µH is selected for this application.
Ensure that the inductor saturation current rating is greater than the 1.2 × IL(PK) found from Equation 21:
IL(PK) = 3.4 A
8.4.4.5 Output Capacitor Selection
The specified peak-to-peak LED current ripple, ΔiLED(PP), is:
ΔiLED(PP) = RRiLED × ILED(MAX) = 90 mA

SLUSCX8C – MARCH 2019 – REVISED MARCH 2021
The output capacitance required to achieve the target LED current ripple can be obtained from Equation 23. The
resulting capacitance value is calculated to be COUT ≥ 23 µF.
Five 4.7-µF 100-V ceramic capacitors are used in parallel to achieve a combined required output capacitance.
8.4.4.6 Input Capacitor Selection
The input capacitor is required to reduce switching noise conducted through the input terminal and to reduce the
input impedance of the LED driver. Equation 26 is used to calculate the required capacitance of CIN ≥ 43 µF to
limit peak-to-peak input voltage ripple, ΔvIN(PP), to 100 mV.
Four 10-µF, 50-V ceramic capacitors are used in parallel to achieve a combined input capacitance of 40 µF. As
shown in Figure 8-11, an additional 33-µF 50-V electrolytic capacitor and more ceramic capacitors are also used
at the input terminal to further decrease the overshoot and undershoot of VIN during PWM dimming.
8.4.4.7 Main N-Channel MOSFET Selection
Maximum transistor voltage rating must exceed the following:
VDS = 1.2 × (VO(OV) + VIN(MAX)) = 70 V
The maximum RMS switch current can be found from Equation 12 to be 2.3 A.
An N-channel MOSFET with a voltage rating of 100 V and a current rating of more than 3 A is required for this
design.
8.4.4.8 Rectifier Diode Selection
Select a diode with a reverse breakdown voltage, VD(BR), greater than or equal to MOSFET drain-to-source
voltage, VDS, for reliable performance.
The DC current rating of the diode rectifier for the Buck-Boost LED driver must be greater than ILED(MAX).
8.4.4.9 Setting ILED and Selecting RCS
The LED current can be programmed by writing an 8-bit value to CH2IADJ Register, and as described in the
Programming LED Current section.
The value of the current sense resistor, RCS, can be selected to result in the ILED(MAX) for the maximum
programmed value of 255 in the CHxIADJ register.
Substituting ILED(MAX) = 1.2 A in Equation 57 results in RCS = 0.14 Ω. A current sense value of 0.1 Ω is selected
for this design.
8.4.4.10 Setting Switch Current Limit
As shown in Equation 13, the switch current limit is determined by the switch current sense resistor, RIS, and the
switch current threshold. For VILIM(THR) = 250 mV and 1.2 × IL(PK) = 4 A, RIS ≤ 62 mΩ. A standard sense resistor
of RIS = 60 mΩ is selected in this design.
8.4.4.11 Slope Compensation
The recommended slope compensation magnitude can be obtained from Equation 14, VSLP ≥ 110 mV.
The VSLP can be programmed in the ISLOPE Register. The ISLOPE =011 is selected, which corresponds with
VSLP = 150 mV.
8.4.4.12 Compensator Parameters
An integral compensator can be selected for this design. The CCOMP can be calculated from Equation 31 . A
standard capacitor value is selected for this design:
CCOMP = 100 nF
A proportional integral compensator can be used to achieve higher bandwidth and improved transient
performance. However, it is necessary to experimentally tune the compensator parameters over the entire
operating range to ensure stable operation.

8.5.2.3 Setting Dither Modulation Frequency
The dither modulation frequency can be set using the FM Register in Equation 2. For the dither modulation
frequency of less than 600 Hz, the FMFREQ must be set to 0101, which corresponds to a division factor of 1536
and sets FM = 521 Hz.
8.5.2.4 Inductor Selection
The inductor is selected to meet the peak-to-peak inductor current ripple at POUT(MAX). The inductor current
ripple, ΔiL-PP, can be obtained from the PR = IL(PK) / IL at POUT(MAX):
'iL
PP
2 u PR 1 u
PO(MAX)
VIN
(59)
In Equation 59, it is important to note that the POUT(MAX) is the maximum output power per phase, 50 W in this
design.
The value of ΔiL-PP is calculated for typical input voltage, VIN(TYP). From Equation 39, the inductor L is calculated
to be:
L ≥ 17 µH
The value of L = 15 µH is selected for this application.
Ensure that the inductor saturation current rating is greater than 1.1 × IL(PK) = 6.5 A (IL(PK) is calculated with 90%
CV BOOST efficiency assumption).
8.5.2.5 Output Capacitor Selection
The output capacitors are required to attenuate the discontinuous output current of the BOOST converter,
as well as decreasing the output voltage undershoot and overshoot during load transient. The total required
output capacitor, COUT, can be found from Equation 42, where fSW is replaced with 2 × 200 kHz = 400 kHz for
two-phase operation.
COUT ≥ 84 µF
10 × 4.7-µF, 100-V ceramic capacitors are used in parallel, at the output of each phase, to achieve a combined
required output capacitance. It is important to note that the CV Boost output capacitor also plays an important
role in decreasing the output undershoot and overshoot voltage during load transient.
8.5.2.6 Input Capacitor Selection
The input capacitor is required to reduce switching noise conducted through the input terminal and to reduce the
input impedance of the CV Boost. Equation 44 is used to calculate the required capacitance of CIN ≥ 70 µF to
limit peak-to-peak input voltage ripple, ΔvIN(PP), to 10 mV.
Eight 10-µF, 50-V ceramic capacitors are used in parallel to achieve a combined input capacitance of 80 µF.
As shown in Figure 8-24, an additional 33-µF, 50-V electrolytic capacitor and a 1-µH inductor are also used at
the input terminal. The electrolytic capacitor is used to further decrease overshoot and undershoot during load
transient. The input inductor is used to decrease the switching noise and improve EMI performance.

8.5.2.7 Main N-Channel MOSFET Selection
Ensure that the MOSFET ratings exceed the maximum output voltage and RMS switch current.
VDS = VO(OV) × 1.1 = 61 V
The maximum RMS switch current can be found from Equation 11, where PO(MAX) is replaced by half of the total
maximum output power for two-phase operation.
An N-channel MOSFET with a voltage rating of 100 V and a current rating of more than 7 A is required for this
design.
8.5.2.8 Rectifier Diode Selection
Select a diode with a reverse breakdown voltage, VD(BR), greater than or equal to MOSFET drain-to-source
voltage, VDS, for reliable performance.
The DC current rating of the diode rectifier for the Boost LED driver must be greater than half of the total output
current, IO(MAX) = 2 A.
8.5.2.9 Programming VOUT
The output voltage VOUT can be programmed using the feedback resistors and by writing an 8-bit value to
CH1IADJ Register and CH2IADJ Register. Equation 45 shows the relation between the programmed VOUT, the
register CHxIADJ, and the feedback resistors.
It is recommended to set the ratio of the feedback resistors RFB2 / RFB1 such that for the maximum CHxIADJ =
255, VOUT does not increase above the maximum desired limit (for example, VO(LIM) = 60 V).
In this design for VO(LIM) = 60 V, RFB2 / RFB1 = 24.
In this design, CHxIADJ is set to the value of 212 to achieve VO = 50 V, for the RFB2 / RFB1 = 24.
8.5.2.10 Setting Switch Current Limit
As shown in Equation 13, the switch current limit is determined by the switch current sense resistor, RIS, and the
switch current threshold. For VILIM(THR) = 100 mV and IL(PK) = 6 A, RIS ≤ 16 mΩ. A standard sense resistor of RIS
= 10 mΩ is selected for this application.
The maximum power loss introduced by RIS can be found from Equation 60, to be 0.45 W.

8.5.2.11 Slope Compensation
The recommended slope compensation magnitude can be obtained from Equation 14, VSLP ≥ 100 mV.
In CV mode for RIS values smaller than 20 mΩ, it is recommended to use VSLP ≥ 250 mV for better noise
immunity.
The VSLP can be programmed in the ISLOPE Register. The ISLOPE =101 is selected, which corresponds with
VSLP = 250 mV.
8.5.2.12 Compensator Parameters
Proportional-Integral Compensator is selected for this design. The compensator component can be obtained
from Equation 51, Equation 52 and Equation 53:
CCOMP = 33 nF
CHF = 100 pF
RCOMP = 15 kΩ
It is noted that the above compensator components are fine-tuned to provide improved load transient
performance.

8.5.2.13 Overvoltage Protection
In CV mode, the output Overvoltage level is set in the OV Register as a percentage above the programmed
regulated value of VOUT. For VO(OV) = 55 V, OV Register is set to 10%, which corresponds with CHxOV = 100.
RFB2 can be calculated from the VOV(HYS) = 2 V and from Equation 54:
RFB2 = 100 kΩ
RFB1 can be calculated from the ratio of RFB2 / RFB1 = 24, found in the VOUT setting.
RFB1 = 4.12 kΩ

9 Power Supply Recommendations
This device is designed to operate from an input voltage supply range between 4.5 V and 65 V. The input can be
a car battery or another pre-regulated power supply. If the input supply is located more than a few inches from
the TPS92682-Q1 device, additional bulk capacitance or an input filter can be required in addition to the ceramic
bypass capacitors to address noise and EMI concerns.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
•
•
•
•
•
•
The performance of the switching regulator depends as much on the layout of the PCB as the component
selection. Following a few simple guidelines maximizes noise rejection and minimizes the generation of EMI
within the circuit.
Discontinuous currents are the most likely to generate EMI. Therefore, take care when routing these paths.
The main path for discontinuous current in the device using a buck regulator topology contains the input
capacitor, CIN, the recirculating diode, D, the N-channel MOSFET, Q1, and the sense resistor, RIS. In the
TPS92682-Q1 device using a boost regulator topology, the discontinuous current flows through the output
capacitor COUT, diode, D, N-channel MOSFET, Q1, and the current sense resistor, RIS. When using a
buck-boost regulator topology, implement the layout of both input and output loops carefully. Make sure that
these loops are as small as possible. In order to minimize parasitic inductance, ensure that the connection
between all the components are short and thick. In particular, make the switch node (where L, D, and Q1
connect) just large enough to connect the components. To minimize excessive heating, large copper pours
can be placed adjacent to the short current path of the switch node.
Route the CSP and CSN together with kelvin connections to the current sense resistor with traces as short
as possible. If needed, use common mode and differential mode noise filters to attenuate switching and diode
reverse recovery noise from affecting the internal current sense amplifier.
Because the COMPx, ISPx, ISNx, and FBx pins are all high-impedance inputs that may couple external
noise, ensure that the loops containing these nodes are minimized whenever possible.
In some applications, the LED or LED array can be far away from the TPS92682-Q1 device, or on a separate
PCB connected by a wiring harness. When an output capacitor is used and the LED array is large or
separated from the rest of the regulator, place the output capacitor close to the LEDs to reduce the effects of
parasitic inductance on the AC impedance of the capacitor.
The TPS92682-Q1 has an exposed thermal pad to aid power dissipation. Adding several vias under the
exposed pad helps conduct heat away from the device. The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance varies
with application. The most significant variables are the area of copper in the PCB and the number of vias
under the exposed pad. The integrity of the solder connection from the device exposed pad to the PCB is
critical. Excessive voids greatly decrease the thermal dissipation capacity.
10.2 Layout Example
Figure 10-1 shows a layout example for a CC boost LED driver, which is connected to the channel-1 of the
TPS92682-Q1.
