With the WEBENCH® Power Designer
With their wide operating input voltage range of 3 V
to 17 V, the devices are ideally suited for systems
powered from either a Li-Ion or other batteries as well
as from 12-V intermediate power rails. It supports up
to 3-A continuous output current at output voltages
from 0.9 V to 5.5 V (with 100% duty cycle mode).
The output voltage startup ramp is controlled by the
soft-start pin, which allows operation as either a
standalone power supply or in tracking configurations.
Power sequencing is also possible by configuring the
Enable and open-drain power good pins.
2 Applications
In power save mode, the devices draw quiescent
current of about 19 μA from VIN. Power save mode,
entered automatically and seamlessly if load is small,
maintains high efficiency over the entire load range.
In shutdown Mode, the device is turned off and
shutdown current consumption is less than 2 μA.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The TLV62130 synchronous switched-mode power converters are based on DCS-Control™ (Direct Control with
Seamless Transition into Power Save Mode), an advanced regulation topology, that combines the advantages of
hysteretic, voltage mode and current mode control including an AC loop directly associated to the output voltage.
This control loop takes information about output voltage changes and feeds it directly to a fast comparator stage.
It sets the switching frequency, which is constant for steady state operating conditions, and provides immediate
response to dynamic load changes. To get accurate DC load regulation, a voltage feedback loop is used. The
internally compensated regulation network achieves fast and stable operation with small external components
and low ESR capacitors.
The DCS-ControlTM topology supports Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) mode for medium and heavy load
conditions and a Power Save Mode at light loads. During PWM, it operates at its nominal switching frequency in
continuous conduction mode. This frequency is typically about 2.5 MHz or 1.25 MHz with a controlled frequency
variation depending on the input voltage. If the load current decreases, the converter enters Power Save Mode to
sustain high efficiency down to very light loads. In Power Save Mode the switching frequency decreases linearly
with the load current. Since DCS-ControlTM supports both operation modes within one single building block, the
transition from PWM to Power Save Mode is seamless without effects on the output voltage. An internal current
limit supports nominal output currents of up to 3 A.
The TLV62130 offers both excellent DC voltage and superior load transient regulation, combined with very low
output voltage ripple, minimizing interference with RF circuits.

SLVSB74H – FEBRUARY 2012 – REVISED JUNE 2018
8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Enable / Shutdown (EN)
When Enable (EN) is set High, the device starts operation. Shutdown is forced if EN is pulled Low with a
shutdown current of typically 1.5 µA. During shutdown, the internal power MOSFETs as well as the entire control
circuitry are turned off. The EN signal must be set externally to High or Low. An internal pull-down resistor of
about 400 kΩ is connected and keeps EN logic low, if the pin is floating. It is disconnected if the pin is High.
Connecting the EN pin to an appropriate output signal of another power rail provides sequencing of multiple
power rails.
8.3.2 Soft Start / Tracking (SS/TR)
The internal soft start circuitry controls the output voltage slope during startup. This avoids excessive inrush
current and ensures a controlled output voltage rise time. It also prevents unwanted voltage drops from highimpedance power sources or batteries. When EN is set to start device operation, the device starts switching after
a delay of about 50 µs and VOUT rises with a slope controlled by an external capacitor connected to the SS/TR
pin. See Figure 32 and Figure 33 for typical startup operation.
Using a very small capacitor (or leaving SS/TR pin un-connected) provides fastest startup behavior. There is no
theoretical limit for the longest startup time. The TLV62130 can start into a pre-biased output. During monotonic
pre-biased startup, the low-side MOSFET is not allowed to turn on until the device's internal ramp sets an output
voltage above the pre-bias voltage. As long as the output is below about 0.5 V, a reduced current limit of typically
1.6 A is set internally. If the device is set to shutdown (EN=GND), undervoltage lockout or thermal shutdown, an
internal resistor pulls the SS/TR pin down to ensure a proper low level. Returning from those states causes a
new startup sequence as set by the SS/TR connection.
A voltage supplied to SS/TR can be used for tracking a master voltage. The output voltage will follow this voltage
in both directions up and down (see Application and Implementation).
8.3.3 Power Good (PG)
The TLV62130 has a built in power good (PG) function to indicate whether the output voltage has reached its
appropriate level or not. The PG signal can be used for startup sequencing of multiple rails. The PG pin is an
open-drain output that requires a pull-up resistor (to any voltage below 7 V). It can sink 2 mA of current and
maintain its specified logic low level. With TLV62130 it is high impedance when the device is turned off due to
EN, UVLO or thermal shutdown. TLV62130A features PG=Low in this case and can be used to actively
discharge Vout (see Figure 39). VIN must remain present for the PG pin to stay Low. See SLVA644 for
application details. If not used, the PG pin should be connected to GND but may be left floating.

8.3.4 Pin-Selectable Output Voltage (DEF)
The output voltage of the TLV62130 devices can be increased by 5% above the nominal voltage by setting the
DEF pin to High (1). When DEF is Low, the device regulates to the nominal output voltage. Increasing the nominal
voltage allows adapting the power supply voltage to the variations of the application hardware. More detailed
information on voltage margining using TLV62130 can be found in SLVA489. A pull down resistor of about 400
kΩ is internally connected to the pin, to ensure a proper logic level if the pin is high impedance or floating after
initially set to Low. The resistor is disconnected if the pin is set High.
8.3.5 Frequency Selection (FSW)
To get high power density with very small solution size, a high switching frequency allows the use of small
external components for the output filter. However switching losses increase with the switching frequency. If
efficiency is the key parameter, more than solution size, the switching frequency can be set to half (1.25 MHz
typical) by pulling FSW to High. It is mandatory to start with FSW=Low to limit inrush current, which can be done
by connecting to VOUT or PG. Running with lower frequency a higher efficiency, but also a higher output voltage
ripple, is achieved. Pull FSW to Low for high frequency operation (2.5 MHz typical). To get low ripple and full
output current at the lower switching frequency, it's recommended to use an inductor of at least 2.2 µH. The
switching frequency can be changed during operation, if needed. A pull down resistor of about 400kOhm is
internally connected to the pin, acting the same way as at the DEF Pin (see above).
8.3.6 Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
If the input voltage drops, the undervoltage lockout prevents misoperation of the device by switching off both the
power FETs. The undervoltage lockout threshold is set typically to 2.7 V. The device is fully operational for
voltages above the UVLO threshold and turns off if the input voltage trips the threshold. The converter starts
operation again once the input voltage exceeds the threshold by a hysteresis of typically 200 mV.
8.3.7 Thermal Shutdown
The junction temperature (TJ) of the device is monitored by an internal temperature sensor. If TJ exceeds 160°C
(typical), the device goes into thermal shut down. Both the high-side and low-side power FETs are turned off and
PG goes high impedance. When TJ decreases below the hysteresis amount, the converter resumes normal
operation, beginning with Soft Start. To avoid unstable conditions, a hysteresis of typically 20°C is implemented
on the thermal shut down temperature.
8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Operation
The TLV62130 operates with pulse width modulation in continuous conduction mode (CCM) with a nominal
switching frequency of 2.5 MHz or 1.25 MHz, selectable with the FSW pin. The frequency variation in PWM is
controlled and depends on VIN, VOUT and the inductance. The device operates in PWM mode as long the output
current is higher than half the inductor's ripple current. To maintain high efficiency at light loads, the device
enters Power Save Mode at the boundary to discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). This happens if the output
current becomes smaller than half the inductor's ripple current.
(1)
10
Maximum allowed voltage is 7 V. Therefore, TI recommends connecting it to VOUT or PG, not VIN.

Device Functional Modes (continued)
8.4.2 Power Save Mode Operation
The TLV62130X enters its built in Power Save Mode seamlessly if the load current decreases. This secures a
high efficiency in light load operation. The device remains in Power Save Mode as long as the inductor current is
discontinuous.
In Power Save Mode the switching frequency decreases linearly with the load current maintaining high efficiency.
The transition into and out of Power Save Mode happens within the entire regulation scheme and is seamless in
both directions.
TLV62130 includes a fixed on-time circuitry. This on-time, in steady-state operation, can be estimated (for
FSW=Low) as:
V
t ON = OUT ´ 400 ns
VIN
(1)
For very small output voltages, an absolute minimum on-time of about 80ns is kept to limit switching losses. The
operating frequency is thereby reduced from its nominal value, which keeps efficiency high. Also the off-time can
reach its minimum value at high duty cycles. The output voltage remains regulated in such cases. Using tON, the
typical peak inductor current in Power Save Mode can be approximated by:
(V - VOUT )
´ t ON
I LPSM(peak) = IN
(2)
L
When VIN decreases to typically 15% above VOUT, the TLV62130 won't enter Power Save Mode, regardless of
the load current. The device maintains output regulation in PWM mode.
8.4.3 100% Duty-Cycle Operation
The duty cycle of the buck converter is given by D=Vout/Vin and increases as the input voltage comes close to
the output voltage. In this case, the device starts 100% duty cycle operation turning on the high-side switch
100% of the time. The high-side switch stays turned on as long as the output voltage is below the internal
setpoint. This allows the conversion of small input to output voltage differences, for example, for longest
operation time of battery-powered applications. In 100% duty cycle mode, the low-side FET is switched off.

The minimum input voltage to maintain output voltage regulation, depending on the load current and the output
voltage level, can be calculated as:

IOUT is the output current.

spacing
8.4.4 Current Limit and Short Circuit Protection
The TLV62130 device is protected against heavy load and short circuit events. If a short circuit is detected (VOUT
drops below 0.5 V), the current limit is reduced to 1.6 A typically. If the output voltage rises above 0.5 V, the
device runs in normal operation again. At heavy loads, the current limit determines the maximum output current.
If the current limit is reached, the high-side FET is turned off. Avoiding shoot through current, then the low-side
FET switches on to allow the inductor current to decrease. The low-side current limit is typically 3.5 A. The highside FET turns on again only if the current in the low-side FET has decreased below the low side current limit
threshold.

The TLV62130 is a switched-mode step-down converter, able to convert a 3-V to 17-V input voltage into a 0.9-V
to 5.5-V output voltage, providing up to 3 A. It needs a minimum amount of external components. Apart from the
LC output filter and the input capacitors, the TLV62130 (TLV62130A) needs an additional resistive divider to set
the output voltage level.

9.2.1 Design Requirements
The following design guideline provides a component selection to operate the device within the recommended
operating conditions. Using the FSW pin, the design can be optimized for highest efficiency or smallest solution
size and lowest output voltage ripple. For highest efficiency set FSW=High and the device operates at the lower
switching frequency. For smallest solution size and lowest output voltage ripple set FSW=Low and the device
operates with higher switching frequency. The typical values for all measurements are VIN = 12 V, VOUT = 3.3 V
and T = 25°C, using the external components of Table 3.

9.2.2.2 Programming the Output Voltage
The TLV62130 (TLV62130A) can be programmed for output voltages from 0.9 V to 5.5 V by using a resistive
divider from VOUT to AGND. The voltage at the FB pin is regulated to 800 mV. The value of the output voltage is
set by the selection of the resistive divider from Equation 6. It is recommended to choose resistor values which
allow a current of at least 2 uA, meaning the value of R2 should not exceed 400 kΩ. Lower resistor values are
recommended for highest accuracy and most robust design.

In case the FB pin gets opened, the device clamps the output voltage at the VOS pin internally to about 7.4 V.
9.2.2.3 External Component Selection
The external components have to fulfill the needs of the application, but also the stability criteria of the devices
control loop. The TLV62130 is optimized to work within a range of external components. The LC output filter's
inductance and capacitance have to be considered together, creating a double pole, responsible for the corner
frequency of the converter (see Output Filter and Loop Stability). Table 4 can be used to simplify the output filter
component selection. Checked cells represent combinations that are proven for stability by simulation and lab
test. Further combinations should be checked for each individual application. See SLVA463 for details.

The TLV62130 can be run with an inductor as low as 1 µH. FSW should be set Low in this case. However, for
applications running with the low frequency setting (FSW=High) or with low input voltages, 2.2 µH is
recommended.
9.2.2.3.1 Inductor Selection
The inductor selection is affected by several effects like inductor ripple current, output ripple voltage, PWM-toPSM transition point and efficiency. In addition, the inductor selected has to be rated for appropriate saturation
current and DC resistance (DCR). Equation 7 and Equation 8 calculate the maximum inductor current under
static load conditions.

useful to get lower ripple current, but increases the transient response time and size as well. The following
inductors have been used with the TLV62130 and are recommended for use:

9.2.2.3.2 Capacitor Selection
9.2.2.3.2.1 Output Capacitor
The recommended value for the output capacitor is 22 µF. The architecture of the TLV62130 allows the use of
tiny ceramic output capacitors which have low equivalent series resistance (ESR). These capacitors provide low
output voltage ripple and are recommended. To keep its low resistance up to high frequencies and to get narrow
capacitance variation with temperature, it's recommended to use X7R or X5R dielectric. Using a higher value can
have some advantages like smaller voltage ripple and a tighter DC output accuracy in Power Save Mode (see
SLVA463).
Note: In power save mode, the output voltage ripple depends on the output capacitance, its ESR and the peak
inductor current. Using ceramic capacitors provides small ESR and low ripple.
9.2.2.3.2.2 Input Capacitor
For most applications, 10 µF will be sufficient and is recommended, though a larger value reduces input current
ripple further. The input capacitor buffers the input voltage for transient events and also decouples the converter
from the supply. A low ESR multilayer ceramic capacitor is recommended for best filtering and should be placed
between PVIN and PGND as close as possible to those pins. Even though AVIN and PVIN must be supplied
from the same input source, it's required to place a capacitance of 0.1 µF from AVIN to AGND, to avoid potential
noise coupling. An RC, low-pass filter from PVIN to AVIN may be used but is not required.
9.2.2.3.2.3 Soft Start Capacitor
A capacitance connected between SS/TR pin and AGND allows a user programmable start-up slope of the
output voltage. A constant current source supports 2.5 µA to charge the external capacitance. The capacitor
required for a given soft-start ramp time for the output voltage is given by:
2.5mA
CSS = t SS ´
éF ù
1.25V ë û
(10)
where
• CSS is the capacitance (F) required at the SS/TR pin.
• tSS is the desired soft-start ramp time (s).
spacing
spacing
NOTE
DC Bias effect: High capacitance ceramic capacitors have a DC Bias effect, which will
have a strong influence on the final effective capacitance. Therefore the right capacitor
value has to be chosen carefully. Package size and voltage rating in combination with
dielectric material are responsible for differences between the rated capacitor value and
the effective capacitance.
spacing
9.2.2.4 Tracking Function
If a tracking function is desired, the SS/TR pin can be used for this purpose by connecting it to an external
tracking voltage. The output voltage tracks that voltage. If the tracking voltage is between 50 mV and 1.2 V, the
FB pin will track the SS/TR pin voltage as described in Equation 11 and shown in Figure 6.

Figure 6. Voltage Tracking Relationship
Once the SS/TR pin voltage reaches about 1.2 V, the internal voltage is clamped to the internal feedback voltage
and device goes to normal regulation. This works for rising and falling tracking voltages with the same behavior,
as long as the input voltage is inside the recommended operating conditions. For decreasing SS/TR pin voltage,
the device doesn't sink current from the output. So, the resulting decrease of the output voltage may be slower
than the SS/TR pin voltage if the load is light. When driving the SS/TR pin with an external voltage, do not
exceed the voltage rating of the SS/TR pin which is VIN + 0.3 V.
If the input voltage drops into undervoltage lockout or even down to zero, the output voltage will go to zero,
independent of the tracking voltage. Figure 7 shows how to connect devices to get ratiometric and simultaneous
sequencing by using the tracking function.

The resistive divider of R1 and R2 can be used to change the ramp rate of VOUT2 faster, slower or the same as
VOUT1.
A sequential startup is achieved by connecting the PG pin of VOUT1 to the EN pin of VOUT2. Ratiometric startup sequence happens if both supplies are sharing the same soft start capacitor. Equation 10 calculates the soft
start time, though the SS/TR current has to be doubled. Details about these and other tracking and sequencing
circuits are found in SLVA470.

Note: If the voltage at the FB pin is below its typical value of 0.8 V, the output voltage accuracy may have a
wider tolerance than specified.
9.2.2.5 Output Filter and Loop Stability
The TLV62130 is internally compensated to be stable with L-C filter combinations corresponding to a corner
frequency to be calculated with Equation 12:
1
f LC =
2p L ´ C
(12)
Proven nominal values for inductance and ceramic capacitance are given in Table 4 and are recommended for
use. Different values may work, but care has to be taken on the loop stability which will be affected. More
information including a detailed LC stability matrix can be found in SLVA463.
The TLV62130 device includes an internal 25-pF feedforward capacitor, connected between the VOS and FB
pins. This capacitor impacts the frequency behavior and sets a pole and zero in the control loop with the resistors
of the feedback divider, per equation Equation 13 and Equation 14:

Though the TLV62130 is stable without the pole and zero being in a particular location, adjusting their location to
the specific needs of the application can provide better performance in Power Save mode and/or improved
transient response. An external feedforward capacitor can also be added. A more detailed discussion on the
optimization for stability vs. transient response can be found in SLVA289 and SLVA466.

9.3 System Examples
9.3.1 LED Power Supply
The TLV62130 can be used as a power supply for power LEDs. The FB pin can be easily set down to lower
values than nominal by using the SS/TR pin. With that, the voltage drop on the sense resistor is low to avoid
excessive power loss. Since this pin provides 2.5 µA, the feedback pin voltage can be adjusted by an external
resistor per Equation 15. This drop, proportional to the LED current, is used to regulate the output voltage (anode
voltage) to a proper level to drive the LED. Both analog and PWM dimming are supported with the TLV62130.
Figure 38 shows an application circuit, tested with analog dimming:

The device now supplies a constant current, set by the resistor at the FB pin, by regulating the output voltage
accordingly. The minimum input voltage has to be rated according the forward voltage needed by the LED used.
More information is available in the Application Note SLVA451.

9.3.2 Active Output Discharge
The TLV62130A pulls the PG pin Low, when the device is shut down by EN, UVLO or thermal shutdown.
Connecting PG to Vout through a resistor can be used to discharge Vout in those cases (see Figure 39). The
discharge rate can be adjusted by R3, which is also used to pull up the PG pin in normal operation. For reliability,
keep the maximum current into the PG pin less than 10 mA.

9.3.3 Inverting Power Supply
The TLV62130 can be used as inverting power supply by rearranging external circuitry as shown in Figure 40. As
the former GND node now represents a voltage level below system ground, the voltage difference between VIN
and VOUT has to be limited for operation to the maximum supply voltage of 17 V (see Equation 16).

incorporating a Right Half Plane Zero additionally. The loop stability has to be adapted and an output
capacitance of at least 22 µF is recommended. A detailed design example is given in SLVA469.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The TLV62130 are designed to operate from a 3-V to 17-V input voltage supply. The input power supply's output
current needs to be rated according to the output voltage and the output current of the power rail application.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
A proper layout is critical for the operation of a switched mode power supply, even more at high switching
frequencies. Therefore the PCB layout of the TLV62130 demands careful attention to ensure operation and to
get the performance specified. A poor layout can lead to issues like poor regulation (both line and load), stability
and accuracy weaknesses, increased EMI radiation and noise sensitivity.
See Figure 48 for the recommended layout of the TLV62130, which is designed for common external ground
connections. Therefore both AGND and PGND pins are directly connected to the Exposed Thermal Pad. On the
PCB, the direct common ground connection of AGND and PGND to the Exposed Thermal Pad and the system
ground (ground plane) is mandatory. Also connect the VOS pin in the shortest way to VOUT at the output
capacitor. To avoid noise coupling into the VOS line, this connection should be separated from the VOUT power
line/plane as shown in Figure 48.
Provide low inductive and resistive paths for loops with high di/dt. Therefore paths conducting the switched load
current should be as short and wide as possible. Provide low capacitive paths (with respect to all other nodes) for
wires with high dv/dt. Therefore the input and output capacitance should be placed as close as possible to the IC
pins and parallel wiring over long distances as well as narrow traces should be avoided. Loops which conduct an
alternating current should outline an area as small as possible, as this area is proportional to the energy radiated.
Sensitive nodes like FB and VOS need to be connected with short wires and not nearby high dv/dt signals (for
example, SW). As they carry information about the output voltage, they should be connected as close as
possible to the actual output voltage (at the output capacitor). The capacitor on the SS/TR pin and on AVIN as
well as the FB resistors, R1 and R2, should be kept close to the IC and connect directly to those pins and the
system ground plane.
The Exposed Thermal Pad must be soldered to the circuit board for mechanical reliability and to achieve
appropriate power dissipation.
The recommended layout is implemented on the EVM and shown in its Users Guide, SLAU416. Additionally, the
EVM Gerber data are available for download here, SLVC394.

11.3 Thermal Considerations
Implementation of integrated circuits in low-profile and fine-pitch surface-mount packages typically requires
special attention to power dissipation. Many system-dependent issues such as thermal coupling, airflow, added
heat sinks and convection surfaces, and the presence of other heat-generating components affect the powerdissipation limits of a given component.
Three basic approaches for enhancing thermal performance are listed below:
• Improving the power dissipation capability of the PCB design
• Improving the thermal coupling of the component to the PCB by soldering the Exposed Thermal Pad
• Introducing airflow in the system
For more details on how to use the thermal parameters, see the application notes: thermal characteristics
application note (SZZA017), and (SPRA953).
The TLV62130 is designed for a maximum operating junction temperature (Tj) of 125°C. Therefore the maximum
output power is limited by the power losses that can be dissipated over the actual thermal resistance, given by
the package and the surrounding PCB structures. Since the thermal resistance of the package is fixed,
increasing the size of the surrounding copper area and improving the thermal connection to the IC can reduce
the thermal resistance. To get an improved thermal behavior, it's recommended to use top layer metal to connect
the device with wide and thick metal lines. Internal ground layers can connect to vias directly under the IC for
improved thermal performance.
If short circuit or overload conditions are present, the device is protected by limiting internal power dissipation.
Experimental data, taken from the TLV62130 EVM, shows the maximum ambient temperature (without additional
cooling like airflow or heat sink), that can be allowed to limit the junction temperature to at most 125°C (see
Figure 36).
