Power Supplies
D High-Current DC/DC Power Modules
The devices feature VDRV to PGND shootthrough protection with adaptive/adjustable
deadtime control. The deadtime, for turning on the
high-side FET from LOWDR transitioning low, is
adjustable with an external capacitor on the
DELAY pin. This allows compensation for the
effect the gate resistor has on the synchronous
FET turn off. The adaptive deadtime prevents the
turning on of the low-side FET until the voltage on
the BOOTLO pin falls below a threshold after the
high-side FET stops conducting. The high-side
drive can be configured as a ground referenced
driver or a floating bootstrap driver. The internal
Schottky diode minimizes the size and number of
external components needed for the bootstrap
driver circuit. Only one external ceramic capacitor
is required to configure the bootstrap driver.
DESCRIPTION
The TPS2838/39/48/49 devices are MOSFET
drivers
designed
for
high-performance
synchronous power supplies. The drivers can
source and sink up to 4-A peak current at a 14-V
drive voltage. These are ideal devices to use with
power supply controllers that do not have on-chip
drivers. The low-side driver is capable of driving
loads of 3.3 nF in 10-ns rise/fall times and has
40-ns propagation delays at room temperature.
The MOSFET drivers have an integrated 150-mA
regulator, so the gate drive voltage can be
optimized for specific MOSFETs. The TPS2848
and TPS2849 have a fixed 8-V drive regulator,
while the TPS2838/39 allow the drive regulator to
be adjusted from 4 V to 14 V by selection of two
external resistors.

description (continued)
The SYNC pin can be used regardless of load to disable the synchronous FET driver and operate the power
supply nonsynchronously.
A power ready/undervoltage lockout function outputs the status of the VCC-pin voltage and driver regulator
output on the open-drain PWRRDY pin. This feature can be used to enable a controller’s output once the VCC
voltage reaches the threshold and the regulator output is stable. This function ensures both FET drivers are off
when the VCC voltage is below the voltage threshold.
The TPS2838/39/48/49 devices are offered in the thermally enhanced 14-pin and 16-pin PowerPAD TSSOP
package. The PowerPAD package features an exposed leadframe on the bottom that can be soldered to the
printed-circuit board to improve thermal efficiency. The TPS2838/48 are noninverting control logic while the
TPS2839/49 drivers are inverting control logic.

detailed description
low-side driver
The low-side driver is designed to drive low rDS(on) N-channel MOSFETs. The current rating of the driver is 4 A,
source and sink.
high-side driver
The high-side driver is designed to drive low rDS(on) N-channel MOSFETs. The current rating of the driver is 4 A
minimum, source and sink. The high-side driver can be configured as a GND-reference driver or as a
floating-bootstrap driver. The internal bootstrap diode is a Schottky, for improved drive efficiency. The maximum
voltage that can be applied from BOOT to ground is 30 V.
dead-time (DT) control
Dead-time control prevents shoot-through current from flowing through the main power FETs during switching
transitions by controlling the turnon times of the MOSFET drivers. The high-side driver is not allowed to turn
on until the gate drive voltage to the low-side FET is low, and the low-side driver is not allowed to turn on until
the voltage at the junction of the power FETs (BOOTLO) is low. The TTL-compatible DT terminal connects to
the junction of the power FETs.
ENABLE
The ENABLE terminal enables the drivers. When enable is low, the output drivers are low. ENABLE is a
TTL-compatible digital terminal.

detailed description (continued)
IN
The IN terminal is a TTL-compatible digital terminal that is the input control signal for the drivers. The
TPS2838/48 have noninverting inputs; the TPS2839/49 have inverting inputs. On the TPS2838 and TPS2848,
a high on IN results in a high on HIGHDR. On the TPS2839 and TPS2849, a high on IN results in a low on
HIGHDR.
SYNC (TPS283x only)
The SYNC terminal controls whether the drivers operate in synchronous or nonsynchronous mode. In
synchronous mode, the low-side FET is operated as a synchronous rectifier. In nonsynchronous mode, the
low-side FET is always off. SYNC is a TTL-compatible digital terminal.
PWRRDY
Depicts the status of the VCC pin voltage and the driver regulator output on the open-drain PWRRDY pin.
DELAY
Adjustable high-side turnon delay from from when the low-side FET is turned off.
ADJ (TPS283x only)
Input for adjusting the driver regulator output. See the application information section for the adjustment formula.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Figure 22 shows the circuit schematic of a 100-kHz synchronous-buck converter implemented with a TL5001ACD
pulse-width-modulation (PWM) controller and a TPS2838 driver. The converter operates over an input range from
4.5 V to 12 V and has a 3.3-V output. The circuit can supply 3-A continuous load. The converter achieves an efficiency
of 94% for VIN = 5 V, IL=1 A, and 93% for VIN = 5 V, IL = 3 A.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Great care should be taken when laying out the PC board. The power-processing section is the most critical
and will generate large amounts of EMI if not properly configured. The junction of Q1, Q2, and L1 should be very
tight. The connection from Q1 drain to the positive sides of C5, C10, and C11 and the connection from Q2 source
to the negative sides of C5, C10, and C11 should be as short as possible. The negative terminals of C7 and
C12 should also be connected to Q2 source.
Next, the traces from the MOSFET driver to the power switches should be considered. The BOOTLO signal from
the junction of Q1 and Q2 carries the large gate drive current pulses and should be as heavy as the gate drive
traces. The bypass capacitor (C14) should be tied directly across VCC and PGND.
The next most sensitive node is the FB node on the controller (terminal 4 on the TL5001A). This node is very
sensitive to noise pickup and should be isolated from the high-current power stage and be as short as possible.
The ground around the controller and low-level circuitry should be tied to the power ground as the output. If these
three areas are properly laid out, the rest of the circuit should not have other EMI problems and the power supply
will be relatively free of noise.

The marketing status values are defined as follows:
ACTIVE: Product device recommended for new designs.
LIFEBUY: TI has announced that the device will be discontinued, and a lifetime-buy period is in effect.
NRND: Not recommended for new designs. Device is in production to support existing customers, but TI does not recommend using this part in a new design.
PREVIEW: Device has been announced but is not in production. Samples may or may not be available.
OBSOLETE: TI has discontinued the production of the device.

RoHS: TI defines "RoHS" to mean semiconductor products that are compliant with the current EU RoHS requirements for all 10 RoHS substances, including the requirement that RoHS substance
do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, "RoHS" products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes. TI may
reference these types of products as "Pb-Free".
RoHS Exempt: TI defines "RoHS Exempt" to mean products that contain lead but are compliant with EU RoHS pursuant to a specific EU RoHS exemption.
Green: TI defines "Green" to mean the content of Chlorine (Cl) and Bromine (Br) based flame retardants meet JS709B low halogen requirements of
