Simplified Schematic
By integrating the MOSFETs and employing the SOT23 package, the TPS54202 achieves the high power
density and offers a small footprint on the PCB.
Advanced Eco-mode implementation maximizes the
light load efficiency and reduces the power loss.
In TPS54202, the frequency spread
operation is introduced for EMI reduction.
Cycle-by-cycle current limit in both high-side
MOSFET protects the converter in an overload
condition and is enhanced by a low-side MOSFET
freewheeling current limit which prevents current
runaway. Hiccup mode protection is triggered if the
overcurrent condition has persisted for longer than
the present time.

TPS54202
SLVSD26A – APRIL 2016 – REVISED JANUARY 2017
www.ti.com
7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The device is a 28-V, 2-A, synchronous step-down (buck) converter with two integrated n-channel MOSFETs. To
improve performance during line and load transients the device implements a constant-frequency, peak current
mode control which reduces output capacitance. The optimized internal compensation network minimizes the
external component counts and simplifies the control loop design.
The TPS54202’s switching frequency is fixed to 500 kHz.
The TPS54202 starts switching at VIN equal to 4.5 V. The operating current is 45 μA typically when not switching
and under no load. When the device is disabled, the supply current is 2 µA typically.
The integrated 148-mΩ high-side MOSFET and 78-mΩ allow for high efficiency power supply designs with
continuous output currents up to 2 A.
The TPS54202 reduces the external component count by integrating the boot recharge diode. The bias voltage
for the integrated high-side MOSFET is supplied by an external capacitor on the BOOT to PH pins. The boot
capacitor voltage is monitored by an UVLO circuit and will turn the high-side MOSFET off when the voltage falls
below a preset threshold of 2.1 V typically.
The device minimizes excessive output overvoltage transients by taking advantage of the overvoltage
comparator. When the regulated output voltage is greater than 108% of the nominal voltage, the overvoltage
comparator is activated, and the high-side MOSFET is turned off and masked from turning on until the output
voltage is lower than 104%.
The TPS54202 device has internal 5-ms soft-start time to minimize inrush currents.

SLVSD26A – APRIL 2016 – REVISED JANUARY 2017
7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Fixed-Frequency PWM Control
The device uses a fixed-frequency, peak current-mode control. The output voltage is compared through external
resistors on the FB pin to an internal voltage reference by an error amplifier. An internal oscillator initiates the
turn on of the high-side power switch. The error amplifier output is compared to the current of the high-side
power switch. When the power-switch current reaches the error amplifier output voltage level, the high side
power switch is turned off and the low-side power switch is turned on. The error amplifier output voltage
increases and decreases as the output current increases and decreases. The device implements a current-limit
by clamping the error amplifier voltage to a maximum level and also implements a minimum clamp for improved
transient-response performance.
7.3.2 Pulse Skip Mode
The TPS54202 is designed to operate in pulse skipping mode at light load currents to boost light load efficiency.
When the peak inductor current is lower than 300 mA typically, the device enters pulse skipping mode. When the
device is in pulse skipping mode, the error amplifier output voltage is clamped which prevents the high side
integrated MOSFET from switching. The peak inductor current must rise above 300 mA and exit pulse skip
mode. Since the integrated current comparator catches the peak inductor current only, the average load current
entering pulse skipping mode varies with the applications and external output filters.
7.3.3 Error Amplifier
The device has a trans-conductance amplifier as the error amplifier. The error amplifier compares the FB voltage
to the lower of the internal soft-start voltage or the internal 0596-V voltage reference. The transconductance of
the error amplifier is 240 µA/V typically. The frequency compensation components are placed internal between
the output of the error amplifier and ground.
7.3.4 Slope Compensation and Output Current
The device adds a compensating ramp to the signal of the switch current. This slope compensation prevents
sub-harmonic oscillations as the duty cycle increases. The available peak inductor current remains constant over
the full duty-cycle range.
7.3.5 Enable and Adjusting Under Voltage Lockout
The EN pin provides electrical on and off control of the device. When the EN pin voltage exceeds the threshold
voltage, the device begins operation. If the EN pin voltage is pulled below the threshold voltage, the regulator
stops switching and enters the low-quiescent (IQ) state.
The EN pin has an internal pullup-current source which allows the user to float the EN pin to enable the device. If
an application requires control of the EN pin, use open-drain or open-collector output logic to interface with the
pin.
The device implements internal undervoltage-lockout (UVLO) circuitry on the VIN pin. The device is disabled
when the VIN pin voltage falls below the internal VIN UVLO threshold. The internal VIN UVLO threshold has a
hysteresis of 480 mV.
If an application requires a higher UVLO threshold on the VIN pin, then the EN pin can be configured as shown
in Figure 13. When using the external UVLO function, setting the hysteresis at a value greater than 500 mV is
recommended.
The EN pin has a small pull-up current, Ip, which sets the default state of the pin to enable when no external
components are connected. The pull-up current is also used to control the voltage hysteresis for the UVLO
function because it increases by Ih when the EN pin crosses the enable threshold. Use Equation 1 and
Equation 2 to calculate the values of R4 and R5 for a specified UVLO threshold.

7.3.6 Safe Startup into Pre-Biased Outputs
The device has been designed to prevent the low-side MOSFET from discharging a pre-biased output. During
monotonic pre-biased startup, both high-side and low-side MOSFETs are not allowed to be turned on until the
internal soft-start voltage is higher than FB pin voltage.
7.3.7 Voltage Reference
The voltage reference system produces a precise ±2.5% voltage-reference over temperature by scaling the
output of a temperature stable bandgap circuit. The typical voltage reference is designed at 0.596 V.
7.3.8 Adjusting Output Voltage
The output voltage is set with a resistor divider from the output node to the FB pin. It is recommended to use
divider resistors with 1% tolerance or better. Start with a 100 kΩ for the upper resistor divider, use Equation 3 to
calculate the output voltage. To improve efficiency at light loads consider using larger value resistors. If the
values are too high the regulator is more susceptible to noise and voltage errors from the FB input current are
noticeable.

Feature Description (continued)
7.3.10 Bootstrap Voltage (BOOT)
The TPS54202 has an integrated boot regulator and requires a 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor between the BOOT and
SW pins to provide the gate drive voltage for the high-side MOSFET. A ceramic capacitor with an X7R or X5R
grade dielectric is recommended because of the stable characteristics over temperature and voltage. To improve
drop out, the TPS54202 is designed to operate at 100% duty cycle as long as the BOOT to SW pin voltage is
greater than 2.1 V typically.
7.3.11 Overcurrent Protection
The device is protected from overcurrent conditions by cycle-by-cycle current limiting on both the high-side
MOSFET and the low-side MOSFET.
7.3.11.1 High-Side MOSFET Overcurrent Protection
The device implements current mode control which uses the internal COMP voltage to control the turn off of the
high-side MOSFET and the turn on of the low-side MOSFET on a cycle-by-cycle basis. During each cycle, the
switch current and the current reference generated by the internal COMP voltage are compared. When the peak
switch current intersects the current reference the high-side switch turns off.
7.3.11.2 Low-Side MOSFET Overcurrent Protection
While the low-side MOSFET is turned on, the conduction current is monitored by the internal circuitry. During
normal operation the low-side MOSFET sources current to the load. At the end of every clock cycle, the low-side
MOSFET sourcing current is compared to the internally set low-side sourcing current-limit. The inductor valley
current is exceeded the low-side source current limit, the high-side MOSFET does not turn on and the low-side
MOSFET stays on for the next cycle. The high-side MOSFET turns on again when the inductor valley current is
below the low-side sourcing current-limit at the start of a cycle as shown in Figure 14.

Furthermore, if an output overload condition occurs for more than the hiccup wait time, which is programmed for
512 switching cycles, the device shuts down and restarts after the hiccup time of 16384 cycles. The hiccup mode
helps to reduce the device power dissipation under severe overcurrent conditions.

Feature Description (continued)
7.3.12 Spread Spectrum
In order to reduce EMI, TPS54202 introduces frequency spread spectrum. The jittering span is ±6% of the
switching frequency with 1/512 swing frequency.
fmax = fc x (1+6%)
Center Frequency fc = 500 KHz
step
fmin = fc x (1-6%)
T = 512CLK = 512/500 KHz = 1.024 mS
Figure 15. Frequency Spread Spectrum Diagram
7.3.13 Output Overvoltage Protection (OVP)
The TPS54202 incorporates an overvoltage transient protection (OVTP) circuit to minimize output voltage
overshoot when recovering from output fault conditions or strong unload transients. The OVTP circuit includes an
overvoltage comparator to compare the FB pin voltage and internal thresholds. When the FB pin voltage goes
above 108% × Vref, the high-side MOSFET will be forced off. When the FB pin voltage falls below 104% × Vref,
the high-side MOSFET will be enabled again.
7.3.14 Thermal Shutdown
The internal thermal-shutdown circuitry forces the device to stop switching if the junction temperature exceeds
155°C typically. When the junction temperature drops below 145°C typically, the internal thermal-hiccup timer
begins to count. The device reinitiates the power-up sequence after the built-in thermal-shutdown hiccup time
(32768 cycles) is over.
7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Normal Operation
When the input voltage is above the UVLO threshold, the TPS54202 can operate in their normal switching
modes. Normal continuous conduction mode (CCM) occurs when inductor peak current is above 0 A. In CCM,
the TPS54202 operates at a fixed frequency.
7.4.2 Eco-mode™ Operation
The devices are designed to operate in high-efficiency pulse-skipping mode under light load conditions. Pulse
skipping initiates when the switch current falls to 0 A. During pulse skipping, the low-side FET turns off when the
switch current falls to 0 A. The switching node (the SW pin) waveform takes on the characteristics of
discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) operation and the apparent switching frequency decreases. As the output
current decreases, the perceived time between switching pulses increases.

8.2.3 Detailed Design Procedure
8.2.3.1 Input Capacitor Selection
The device requires an input decoupling capacitor and a bulk capacitor is needed depending on the application.
A ceramic capacitor over 10 µF is recommended for the decoupling capacitor. An additional 0.1 µF capacitor
(C2) from VIN to GND is optional to provide additional high frequency filtering. The capacitor voltage rating needs
to be greater than the maximum input voltage.
Use Equation 4 to calculate the input ripple voltage (ΔVIN).
IOUT(MAX ) ´0.25
DVIN =
+ IOUT(MAX ) ´ ESRMAX
CBULK ´ fsw
(
)
where:
•
•
•
•
CBULK is the bulk capacitor value
fSW is the switching frequency
IOUT(MAX) is the maximum loading current
ESRMAX is maximum series resistance of the bulk capacitor
(4)
The maximum RMS (root mean square) ripple current must also be checked. For worst case conditions, use
Equation 5 to calculate ICIN(RMS).
IO(MAX)
ICIN(RMS) =
(5)
2
The actual input-voltage ripple is greatly affected by parasitic associated with the layout and the output
impedance of the voltage source. Design Requirements show the actual input voltage ripple for this circuit which
is larger than the calculated value. This measured value is still below the specified input limit of 400 mV. The
maximum voltage across the input capacitors is VIN (MAX) + ΔVIN/2. The selected bypass capacitor is rated for
35 V and the ripple current capacity is greater than 2 A. Both values provide ample margin. The maximum
ratings for voltage and current must not be exceeded under any circumstance.
8.2.3.2 Bootstrap Capacitor Selection
A 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor must be connected between the BOOT to SW pin for proper operation. It is
recommended to use a ceramic capacitor.
8.2.3.3 Output Voltage Set Point
The output voltage of the TPS54202 device is externally adjustable using a resistor divider network. In the
application circuit of Figure 16, this divider network is comprised of R2 and R3. Use Equation 6 and Equation 7
to calculate the relationship of the output voltage to the resistor divider.
R2 ´ Vref
R3 =
VOUT - Vref
(6)
é R2 ù
Vout = Vref ´ ê
+ 1ú
ë R3 û
(7)
Select a value of R2 to be approximately 100 kΩ. Slightly increasing or decreasing R3 can result in closer output
voltage matching when using standard value resistors. In this design, R2 = 100 kΩ and R3 = 13.3 kΩ which
results in a 5-V output voltage. The 49.9-Ω resistor, R1, is provided as a convenient location to break the control
loop for stability testing.
8.2.3.4 Undervoltage Lockout Set Point
The undervoltage lockout (UVLO) set point can be adjusted using the external-voltage divider network of R4 and
R5. R4 is connected between the VIN and EN pins of the TPS54202 device. R5 is connected between the EN
and GND pins. The UVLO has two thresholds, one for power up when he input voltage is rising and one for
power down or brown outs when the input voltage is falling. For the example design, the minimum input voltage
is 8 V, so the start-voltage threshold is set to 6.8 V with 1000-mV hysteresis. Use Equation 1 and Equation 2 to
calculate the values for the upper and lower resistor values of R4 and R5.

8.2.3.5 Output Filter Components
Two components must be selected for the output filter, the output inductor (LO) and CO.
8.2.3.5.1 Inductor Selection
Use Equation 8 to calculate the minimum value of the output inductor (LMIN).
LMIN =
(
VOUT ´ VIN(MAX ) - VOUT
)
VIN(MAX ) ´ KIND ´ IOUT ´ fsw
(8)
Where:
KIND is a coefficient that represents the amount of inductor ripple current relative to the maximum output
current.
In general, the value of KIND is at the discretion of the designer; however, the following guidelines may be used.
For designs using low-ESR output capacitors, such as ceramics, a value as high as KIND = 0.3 can be used.
When using higher ESR output capacitors, KIND = 0.2 yields better results.
For this design example, use KIND = 0.3. The minimum inductor value is calculated as 13.7 μH. For this design, a
close standard value of 15 μH was selected for LMIN.
For the output filter inductor, the RMS current and saturation current ratings must not be exceeded. Use
Equation 9 to calculate the RMS inductor current (IL(RMS)).

IL(PK ) = IOUT(MAX ) +

1.6 ´ VIN(MAX ) ´ LOUT ´ fSW
(10)
Smaller or larger inductor values can be used depending on the amount of ripple current the designer wants to
allow so long as the other design requirements are met. Larger value inductors have lower AC current and result
in lower output voltage ripple. Smaller inductor values increase AC current and output voltage ripple.
8.2.3.5.2 Output Capacitor Selection
Consider three primary factors when selecting the value of the output capacitor. The output capacitor determines
the modulator pole, the output voltage ripple, and how the regulator responds to a large change in load current.
The output capacitance must be selected based on the more stringent of these three criteria.
The desired response to a large change in the load current is the first criterion. The output capacitor must supply
the load with current when the regulator cannot. This situation occurs if the desired hold-up times are present for
the regulator. In this case, the output capacitor must hold the output voltage above a certain level for a specified
amount of time after the input power is removed. The regulator is also temporarily unable to supply sufficient
output current if a large, fast increase occurs affecting the current requirements of the load, such as a transition
from no load to full load. The regulator usually requires two or more clock cycles for the control loop to notice the
change in load current and output voltage and to adjust the duty cycle to react to the change. The output
capacitor must be sized to supply the extra current to the load until the control loop responds to the load change.
The output capacitance must be large enough to supply the difference in current for 2 clock cycles while only
allowing a tolerable amount of drop in the output voltage. Use Equation 11 to calculate the minimum required
output capacitance.

where:

∆IOUT is the change in output current
ƒSW is the switching frequency of the regulator
∆V(OUT )b is the allowable change in the output voltage

For this example, the transient load response is specified as a 5% change in the output voltage, VOUT, for a load
step of 1.5 A. For this example, ΔIOUT = 1.5 A and ΔVOUT = 0.05 × 5 = 0.25 V. Using these values results in a
minimum capacitance of 24 μF. This value does not consider the ESR of the output capacitor in the output
voltage change. For ceramic capacitors, the ESR is usually small enough to ignore in this calculation.
Equation 12 calculates the minimum output capacitance required to meet the output voltage ripple specification.
In this case, the maximum output voltage ripple is 30 mV. Under this requirement, Equation 12 yields 4.56 μF.

Use Equation 13 to calculate the maximum ESR an output capacitor can have to meet the output-voltage ripple
specification. Equation 13 indicates the ESR should be less than 54.8 mΩ. In this case, the ESR of the ceramic
capacitor is much smaller than 54.8 mΩ.

The output capacitor can affect the crossover frequency ƒo. Considering to the loop stability and effect of the
internal parasitic parameters, choose the crossover frequency less than 40 kHz without considering the feed
forward capacitor. A simple estimation for the crossover frequency without feed forward capacitor C6 is shown in
Equation 14, assuming COUT has small ESR.
fo =

VOUT u COUT
(14)
Additional capacitance deratings for aging, temperature, and DC bias should be considered which increases this
minimum value. For this example, two 22-uF 25-V, X7R ceramic capacitors are used. Capacitors generally have
limits to the amount of ripple current they can handle without failing or producing excess heat. An output
capacitor that can support the inductor ripple current must be specified. Some capacitor data sheets specify the
RMS value of the maximum ripple current. Use Equation 15 to calculate the RMS ripple current that the output
capacitor must support. For this application, Equation 15 yields 79 mA for each capacitor.

8.2.3.5.3 Feed-Forward Capacitor
The TPS54202 is internally compensated and the internal compensation network is composed of two capacitors
and one resister shown on the block diagram. Depending on the VOUT, if the output capacitor COUT is dominated
by low ESR (ceramic types) capacitors, it could result in low phase margin. To improve the phase boost an
external feedforward capacitor C6 can be added in parallel with R2. C6 is chosen such that phase margin is
boosted at the crossover frequency.
Equation 16 for C6 was tested:
C6 =

2Sf o R2
(16)
For this design, C6 = 75 pF. C6 is not needed when COUT has high ESR, and C6 calculated from Equation 16
should be reduced with medium ESR. Table 2 can be used as a starting point.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The devices are designed to operate from an input voltage supply range between 4.5 V and 28 V. This input
supply must be well regulated. If the input supply is located more than a few inches from the device or converter,
additional bulk capacitance may be required in addition to the ceramic bypass capacitors. An electrolytic
capacitor with a value of 47 µF is a typical choice.

VIN and GND traces should be as wide as possible to reduce trace impedance. The wide areas are also of
advantage from the view point of heat dissipation.
The input capacitor and output capacitor should be placed as close to the device as possible to minimize

Provide sufficient vias for the input capacitor and output capacitor.
Keep the SW trace as physically short and wide as practical to minimize radiated emissions.
Do not allow switching current to flow under the device.
A separate VOUT path should be connected to the upper feedback resistor.
Make a Kelvin connection to the GND pin for the feedback path.
Voltage feedback loop should be placed away from the high-voltage switching trace, and preferably has
ground shield.
The trace of the VFB node should be as small as possible to avoid noise coupling.
The GND trace between the output capacitor and the GND pin should be as wide as possible to minimize its
