SLUS719H – MARCH 2007 – REVISED MAY 2019
TPS4019x 4.5-V to 18-V Input, Voltage-Mode, Synchronous Buck Controller
With Power Good
1 Features
3 Description
•
•
•
•
•
TPS40192 and TPS40193 are cost-optimized
synchronous buck controllers that operate from 4.5 V
to 18 V input. These controllers implement a voltagemode control architecture with the switching
frequency fixed at either 600 kHz (TPS40192) or 300
kHz (TPS40193). The higher switching frequency
facilitates the use of smaller inductor and output
capacitors, thereby providing a compact powersupply solution. An adaptive anti-cross conduction
scheme is used to prevent shoot through current in
the power FETs.

Short circuit detection is done by sensing the voltage
drop across the low-side MOSFET when it is on and
comparing it with a user selected threshold of 100
mV, 200 mV or 280 mV. The threshold is set with a
single external resistor connected from COMP to
GND. This resistor is sensed at startup and the
selected threshold is latched. Pulse-by-pulse limiting
(to prevent current runaway) is provided by sensing
the voltage across the high-side MOSFET when it is
on and terminating the cycle when the voltage drop
rises above a fixed threshold of 550 mV. When the
controller senses an output short circuit, both
MOSFETs are turned off and a timeout period is
observed before attempting to restart. This behavior
provides limited power dissipation in the event of a
sustained fault.

between this pin and SW.
BP5
6
O
Output bypass for the internal regulator. Connect a capacitor with a value of at least 1-μF from this pin to GND.
Larger capacitors (up to 4.7 μF) can improve noise performance when using a low-side MOSFET with a gate
charge of 25 nC or greater. Low power, low noise loads may be connected here if desired. The sum of the
external load and the gate drive requirements must not exceed 50 mA. This regulator is turned off when
ENABLE is pulled low.
COMP

I
Logic level input which starts or stops the controller from an external user command. A high-level turns the
controller on. A weak internal pullup holds this pin high so that the pin may be left floating if this function is not
used.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The TPS40192 and TPS40193 devices are cost-optimized controllers providing all the necessary features to
construct a high performance DC/DC converter while keeping costs to a minimum. Support for pre-biased
outputs eliminates concerns about damaging sensitive loads during start-up. Strong gate drivers for the high-side
and rectifier N-channel MOSFETs decrease switching losses for increased efficiency. Adaptive gate drive timing
prevents shoot through and minimizes body diode conduction in the rectifier MOSFET, also increasing efficiency.
Selectable short circuit protection thresholds and hiccup recovery from a short circuit increase design flexibility
and minimize power dissipation in the event of a prolonged output fault. The dedicated ENABLE pin allows the
converter to be placed in a very low quiescent current shutdown mode. Internally fixed switching frequency and
soft-start time reduce external component count, simplifying design and layout, as well as reducing footprint and
cost. The 3-mm × 3- mm package size also contributes to a reduced overall converter footprint.

When the input voltage is below the UVLO threshold, the device holds all gate drive outputs in the low (OFF)
state. When the input rises above the UVLO threshold, and the ENABLE pin is above the turn ON threshold, the
oscillator begins to operate and the start-up sequence is allowed to begin. The UVLO level is internally fixed at
4.2 V.
7.3.4 Enable Functionality
A dedicated ENABLE pin simplifies a user-level interface design where no multiplexed functions exist. Another
benefit is a true low power shutdown mode of operation. When the ENABLE pin is pulled to GND, all
unnecessary functions, including the BP5 regulator, are turned off, reducing the device supply (IDD) current to 45µA. A functionally equivalent circuit of the enable circuitry shown in Figure 12.

Figure 12. Enable Pin Internal Circuitry
If the ENABLE pin is left floating, the chip starts automatically. The pin must be pulled to less than 600 mV to
ensure that the TPS40192 and TPS40193 devices is in shutdown mode. Note that the ENABLE pin is relatively
high impedance. Some applications generate enough nearby noise to cause the ENABLE pin to swing below the
600 mV threshold and give an erroneous shutdown commands to the rest of the device. There are two solutions
to solve this problem.
1. Place a capacitor from ENABLE to GND. A side effect of this is to delay the start of the converter while the
capacitor charges past the enable threshold
2. Place a resistor from VDD to ENABLE. This causes more current to flow in the shutdown mode, but does not
delay converter start-up. If a resistor is used, the total current into the ENABLE pin should be limited to no
more than 500 μA.
The ENABLE pin is self-clamping. The clamp voltage can be as low as 1 V with a 1-kΩ ground impedance. Due
to this self-clamping feature, the pullup impedance on the ENABLE pin should be selected to limit the sink
current to less than 500 µA. Driving the ENABLE pin with a low-impedance source voltage can result in damage
to the device. Because of the self-clamping feature, it requires care when connecting multiple ENABLE pins
together.

7.3.5 Start-Up Sequence and Timing
After input power is applied, the 5-V onboard regulator comes up. Once this regulator comes up, the device goes
through a period where it samples the impedance at the COMP pin and determines the short circuit protection
threshold voltage, by placing 400 mV on the COMP pin for approximately 1 ms. During this time, the current is
measured and compared against internal thresholds to select the short circuit protection threshold. After this, the
COMP pin is brought low for 1 ms. This ensures that the feedback loop is preconditioned at start-up and no
sudden output rise occurs at the output of the converter when the converter is allowed to start switching. After
these initial two milliseconds, the internal soft-start circuitry is engaged and the converter is allowed to start. See
Figure 13.

7.3.6 Selecting the Short Circuit Current
A short circuit in the devices is detected by sensing the voltage drop across the low-side MOSFET when it is on,
and across the high-side MOSFET when it is on. If the voltage drop across either MOSFET exceeds the short
circuit threshold in any given switching cycle, a counter increments one count. If the voltage across the high-side
MOSFET was higher that the short circuit threshold, that MOSFET is turned off early. If the voltage drop across
either MOSFET does not exceed the short circuit threshold during a cycle, the counter is decremented for that
cycle. If the counter fills up (a count of 7) a fault condition is declared and the drivers turn off both MOSFETs.
After a timeout of approximately 50 ms, the controller attempts to restart. If a short circuit is still present at the
output, the current quickly ramps up to the short circuit threshold and another fault condition is declared and the
process of waiting for the 50 ms an attempting to restart repeats. The low-side threshold increases as the lowside on time decreases due to blanking time and comparator response time. See Figure 11 for changes in the
threshold as the low-side MOSFET conduction time decreases.
These devices provide three selectable short circuit protection thresholds for the low-side MOSFET: 100 mV,
200 mV and 280 mV. The particular threshold is selected by connecting a resistor from COMP to GND. Table 1
shows the short circuit thresholds for corresponding resistors from COMP to GND. When designing the
compensation for the feedback loop, remember that a low impedance compensation network combined with a
long network time constant can cause the short circuit threshold setting to not be as expected. The time constant
and impedance of the network connected from COMP to FB should be as in Equation 1 to ensure no interaction
with the short circuit threshold setting.

Due to blanking time considerations, overcurrent threshold accuracy may fall off for duty cycle greater than 75%
with the TPS40192, or 88% with the TPS40193. Specifically, the overcurrent comparator has only a very short
time to sample the SW pin voltage under these conditions. As a result, the comparator may not have time to
respond to voltages very near the threshold.
The short circuit protection threshold for the high-side MOSFET is fixed at 550 mV typical, 400 mV minimum.
This threshold is in place to provide a maximum current output using pulse by pulse current limit in the case of a
fault. The pulse terminates when the voltage drop across the high-side MOSFET exceeds the short circuit
threshold. The maximum amount of current that can be specified to be sourced from a converter is found by
Equation 4.

If the required current from the converter is greater than the calculated IOUT(max), a lower resistance high-side
MOSFET must be chosen. Both the high-side and low-side thresholds use temperature compensation to
approximate the change in resistance for a typical power MOSFET. This helps to counteract shifts in overcurrent
thresholds as temperature increases. For this feature to be effective, the MOSFETs and the device must be well
coupled thermally.
7.3.7 5-V Regulator
An on board 5-V regulator that allows the parts to operate from a single voltage feed. No separate 5-V feed to
the part is required. This regulator needs to have a minimum of 1-μF of capacitance on the BP5 pin for stability.
A ceramic capacitor is suggested for this purpose.
This regulator can also be used to supply power to nearby circuitry, eliminating the need for a separate LDO in
some cases. If this pin is used for external loads, be aware that this is the power supply for the internals of the
TPS40192 and TPS40193 devices . While efforts have been made to reduce sensitivity, any noise induced on
this line has an adverse effect on the overall performance of the internal circuitry and shows up as increased
pulse jitter, or skewed reference voltage. Also, when the device is disabled by pulling the EN pin low, this
regulator is turned off and cannot supply power.
The amount of power available from this pin varies with the size of the power MOSFETs that the drivers must
operate. Larger MOSFETs require more gate drive current and reduce the amount of power available on this pin
for other tasks. The total current that this pin can draw from both the gate drive and external loads cannot
exceed 50 mA. The device uses up to 4 mA from the regulator and the total gate drive current can be found from
Equation 5.
For regulator stability, a 1-μF capacitor is required to be connected from BP5 to GND. In some applications using
higher gate charge MOSFETs, a larger capacitor is required for noise suppression. For a total gate charge of
both the high and low-side MOSFETs greater than 20 nC, a 2.2-μF or larger capacitor is recommended.

QG(low) is the gate charge requirement for the low-side MOSFET when VGS= 5 V
(5)
7.3.8 Prebias Start-Up
The TPS40192 and TPS40193 devices contains a unique circuit to prevent current from being pulled from the
output during start-up in the condition the output is pre-biased. When the soft-start commands a voltage higher
than the pre-bias level (internal soft-start becomes greater than feedback voltage [VFB]), the controller slowly
activates synchronous rectification by starting the first LDRV pulses with a narrow on-time. It then increments
that on-time on a cycle-by-cycle basis until it coincides with the time dictated by (1-D), where D is the duty cycle
of the converter. This scheme prevents the initial sinking of the pre-bias output, and ensures that the out voltage
(VOUT) starts and ramps up smoothly into regulation and the control loop is given time to transition from prebiased start-up to normal mode operation with minimal disturbance to the output voltage. The amount of time
from the start of switching until the low-side MOSFET is turned on for the full (1-D) interval is defined by 32 clock
cycles.

7.3.9 Drivers
The drivers for the external HDRV and LDRV MOSFETs are capable of driving a gate-to-source voltage of 5 V.
The LDRV driver switches between VDD and GND, while HDRV driver is referenced to SW and switches
between BOOT and SW. The drivers have non-overlapping timing that is governed by an adaptive delay circuit to
minimize body diode conduction in the synchronous rectifier. The drivers are capable of driving MOSFETS that
are appropriate for a 15-A (TPS40192) or 20-A (TPS40193) converter.
7.3.10 Power Good
The TPS40192 and TPS40193 devices provides an indication that output power is good for the converter. This is
an open drain signal and pulls low when any condition exists that would indicate that the output of the supply
might be out of regulation. These conditions include:
• VFB is more than ±10% from nominal
• soft-start is active
• an undervoltage condition exists for the device
• a short circuit condition has been detected
• die temperature is over (145°C)
NOTE
When there is no power to the device, PGOOD is not able to pull close to GND if an
auxiliary supply is used for the power good indication. In this case, a built in resistor
connected from drain to gate on the PGOOD pull down device makes the PGOOD pin
look approximately like a diode to GND.
7.3.11 Thermal Shutdown
If the junction temperature of the device reaches the thermal shutdown limit of 145°C, the PWM and the oscillator
are turned off and the HDRV pin and the LDRV pin are driven low, turning off both FETs. When the junction
cools to the required level (125°C nominal), the PWM inititates soft start as during a normal power up cycle.
7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Continuous Conduction Mode
The TPS40192 and TPS40193 devices devices operate in continuous conduction mode, regardless of the output
current. Following the first 32 cycles, during which the low-side MOSFET on-time is slowly increased to prevent
current sinking due to a pre-biased output, the high-side MOSFET and low-side MOSFET on-times are fully
complementary.
7.4.2 Low-Quiescent Shutdown
When the ENABLE pin of the TPS40192, and TPS40193 devices is held below 0.6 V, the device enters a low
quiescent current shutdown mode, drawing only 45 µA typically from the VDD pin.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
8.2.2.1 Selecting the Switching Frequency
Choose a switching fSW of 600 kHz to reduce the required inductor and capacitor sizes.
8.2.2.2 Inductor Selection
The inductor is typically sized for approximately 30% peak-to-peak ripple current (IRIPPLE). Given this target ripple
current, the required inductor size can be calculated by Equation 6.

gate drive, and is chosen as a high-side MOSFET. The IRF7834 has an RDS(on)Q1,MAX of 5.5 mΩ at 4.5-V gate
drive and 44 nC of total gate charge. These two FETs have maximum total gate charges of 23 nC and 44 nC
respectively, which draws 40.2-mA from the 5-V regulator, less than its 50-mA minimum rating.
8.2.2.7 Boot Strap Capacitor
To ensure proper charging of the high-side MOSFET gate, limit the ripple voltage on the boost capacitor to less
than 50 mV.
CBOOST = 20 × Q G1 = 20 × 23 nC = 460 nF
(22)
Use the next higher standard value of 470 nF for the value of the bootstrap capacitor.
NOTE
It is recommended to add a high-resistance resistor in parallel with the bootstrap
capacitor. Adding a small amount of load to the bootstrap capacitor (100 kΩ for a 100-nF
typical capacitor) creates a discharge time constant for the bootstrap voltage following a
shutdown event. This prevents the possibility of an inadvertent turn-on of the high-side
MOSFET following shutdown via the ENABLE pin, due to leakage paths within the driver
stage which can slowly transfer the bootstrap voltage to the HDRV pin following the
shutdown. (See Figure 15)
8.2.2.8 Input Bypass Capacitor (C6)
As suggested, select a 1.0-μF ceramic bypass capacitor for VDD.
8.2.2.9 BP5 Bypass Capacitor (C5)
The recommended minimum 1.0-μF ceramic capacitance stabilizes the 5-V regulator. To limit regulator noise to
less than 10 mV, the bypass capacitor is sized by using Equation 23.
CBP5 = 100 × MAX:Q G1 , Q G2 ; = 100 × MAX:23 nC, 44 nC;
4.4 µF
(23)
Because the Q2 gate charge is larger than Q1 and the total gate charge of Q2 is 44 nC, a BP5 capacitor of 4.4μF is calculated, and the next larger standard value of 4.7 μF is selected to limit noise on the BP5 regulator.
8.2.2.10 Input Voltage Filter Resistor (R11)
Because the minimum input voltage (VIN(min)) is greater than 6.0 V, place a 0-Ω resistor in the VDD resistor
location. If VIN(min) was < 6.0 V, an optional series VDD resistor with a value between 1 Ω and 2 Ω filters
switching noise from the device. Limit the voltage drop across this resistor to less than 50 mV.

(24)
Driving the two FETs with 23 nC and 44 nC respectively, the maximum IVDD current calculation of 43 mA yields a
resistor value of approximately 1 Ω.
8.2.2.11 Short Circuit Protection (R9)
The devices use the negative drop across the low-side MOSFET during the OFF time to measure the inductor
current. Equation 25 approximates the voltage drop across the low-side MOSFET.

The internal temperature coefficient of the TPS40192 device helps compensate for the MOSFET on-resistance
(RDS(on) ) temperature coefficient. For this design select the short circuit protection voltage threshold of 110 mV

Because the peak-to-peak ramp voltage given in the Electrical Characteristics table is projected from the ramp
slope over a full switching period, the modulator gain can be calculated as Equation 27. The maximum modulator
gain for this design is found to be 14 (23 dB).

At any frequency lower than this ( 11.3 kHz), the power stage has a DC gain of 23 dB and at any higher
frequency the power stage gain drops off at -40 dB per decade. The ESR zero is approximated in Equation 29.

Using two 100 µF, 2.5 mΩ ESR ceramic output capacitors, the calculated fESR of 636 kHz is greater than 1/5th
the switching frequency, and therefore outside the scope of the error amplifier design. The gain of the power
stage would change to –20 dB per decade above f ESR. The straight line approximation the power stage gain is
described in Figure 16.

Select the closest standard value of 9.76 kΩ. A slightly lower nominal value increases the nominal output voltage
slightly to compensate for some trace impedance at load.
8.2.2.14 Error Amplifier Compensation (R6, R10, C1, C2, C3)
Place two zeros at 50% and 100% of the resonance frequency to boost the phase margin before resonance
frequency generates –180° of phase shift. For fRES = 11.7 kHz, fZ1 = 5.8 kHz and fZ2 = 11 kHz. Selecting the
crossover frequency (fCO) of the control loop between 3 times the LC filter resonance and 1/5th the switching
frequency. For most applications 1/10th the switching frequency provides a good balance between ease of
design and fast transient response.
• If fESR < fCO ; fP1 = fESR and fP2 = 4 × fCO
• If fESR > 2 × fCO; fP1 = fCO and fP2 = 8 × fCO.
For this design
• fSW = 600 kHz
• fRES = 11.7 kHz
• fESR = 636 kHz
• fCO = 60 kHz and because
• fESR > 2 × fCO, FP1 = fCO = 60 kHz and fP2 = 4 × fCO = 500 kHz.
Because fCO < fESR the power stage gain at the desired crossover can be approximated in Equation 31.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The TPS40192, and TPS40193 devices are designed to operate from a supply on the VDD pin, ranging from
4.5 V to 18 V. This supply must be well regulated and bypassed for proper operation of the devices. The VDD
pin must be connected to the same supply as the power stage conversion input voltage for accurate high-side
current sensing. The BP5 pin is the output of an internal low dropout regulator which is used to supply the gate
drive voltages, and must also have good local bypassing for proper operation of the devices.
