Both high-side and low-side MOSFETs are integrated
to provide fully synchronous conversion with higher
efficiency. Channel 1 can provide up to 1.5 A of
continuous current. Meanwhile, Channel 2 supports
up to 2.5 A.
Current mode control simplifies the compensation.
The external compensation adds flexibility for the
user to choose different type of output capacitors.
180° out-of-phase operation reduces the ripple
current through the input capacitor, providing the
benefit of reducing input capacitance, alleviating EMI
and increasing capacitor life.

PVDD1
I/O
DESCRIPTION
I
Power input to the Output1 high-side MOSFET only. This pin must be locally bypassed to
PGND1 with a low-ESR ceramic capacitor of 10 µF or greater. PVDD1 and PVDD2 could be
tied externally together.
2
BOOT1
I
Input supply to the high-side gate driver for Output1. Connect a 22-nF to 68-nF capacitor from
this pin to SW1. This capacitor is charged from the BP pin voltage through an internal switch.
The switch is turned ON during the off-time of the converter. To slow down the turn ON of the
internal FET, a small resistor (2 Ω to 5 Ω) may be placed in series with the bootstrap
capacitor.
3
SW1
O
Source (switching) output for Output1 PWM
4
PGND1
—
Power ground for Outputx. It is separated from GND to prevent the switching noise coupled to
the internal logic circuits.
5
EN1
I
Active-low enable input for Output1. If the voltage on this pin is greater than 1.5 V, Output1 is
disabled (high-side switch is OFF). A voltage of less than 0.9 V enables Output1 and allow
soft start of Output1 to begin. An internal current source drives this pin to PVDD2 if left
floating. Connect this pin to GND to bypass the enable function.
6
EN2
I
Active-low enable input for Output2. If the voltage on this pin is greater than 1.5 V, Output2 is
disabled (high-side switch is OFF). A voltage of less than 0.9 V enables Output2 and allow
soft start of Output2 to begin. An internal current source drives this pin to PVDD2 if left
floating. Connect this pin to GND to bypass the enable function.
7
FB1
I
Voltage feedback pin for Outputx. The internal transconductance error amplifier adjusts the
PWM for Outputx to regulate the voltage at this pin to the internal 0.8-V reference. A series
resistor divider from Outputx to ground, with the center connection tied to this pin, determines
the value of the regulated output voltage.
8
COMP1
O
Output of the transconductance (gM) amplifier. A R-C compensation network is connected
from COMPx to GND.

Power ground for Outputx. It is separated from GND to prevent the switching noise coupled to
the internal logic circuits.
14
SW2
O
Source (switching) output for Output2 PWM.
I
Input supply to the high-side gate driver for Output2. Connect a 22-nF to 68-nF capacitor from
this pin to SW2. This capacitor is charged from the BP pin voltage through an internal switch.
The switch is turned ON during the off-time of the converter. To slow down the turn ON of the
internal FET, a small resistor (2 Ω to 5 Ω) may be placed in series with the bootstrap
capacitor.
The PVDD2 pin provides power to the device control circuitry, provides the pullup for the EN1
and EN2 pins and provides power to the Output2 high-side MOSFET. This pin must be locally
bypassed to PGND2 with a low-ESR ceramic capacitor of 10 µF or greater. The UVLO
function monitors PVDD2 and enables the device when PVDD2 is greater than 4.2 V.

amplifier, current mode pulse width modulator (PWM), switching and rectifying MOSFETs, enable, and fault
protection circuitry. Common to the two channels are the internal voltage regulator, voltage reference, and clock
oscillator.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Voltage Reference
The band-gap cell common to both outputs, trimmed to 800 mV. The reference voltage is 1% accurate in the
temperature range from 0°C to 85°C.
8.3.2 Oscillator
The oscillator frequency is internally fixed at 2.4 MHz that is divided by 8/4/2 to generate the ramps for
TPS5429x, respectively. The two outputs are internally configured to operate on alternating switch cycles (that is,
180° out-of-phase).
8.3.3 Input UVLO and Start-Up
When the voltage at the PVDD2 pin is less than 4.4 V, a portion of the internal bias circuitry is operational, and
all other functions are held OFF. All of the internal MOSFETs are also held OFF. When the PVDD2 voltage rises
above the UVLO turnon threshold, the state of the enable pins determines the remainder of the internal start-up
sequence. If either output is enabled (ENx pulled low), the BP regulator turns on, charging the BP capacitor with
a 20-mA current. When the BP pin is greater than 4 V, PWM is enabled and soft start commences.
NOTE
The internal regulator and control circuitry are powered from PVDD2. The voltage on
PVDD1 may be higher or lower than PVDD2.
8.3.4 Enable and Timed Turnon of the Outputs
Each output has a dedicated (active low) enable pin. If left floating, an internal current source pulls the pin to
PVDD2. By grounding, or by pulling the ENx pin to below approximately 1.25 V with an external circuit, the
associated output is enabled and soft start is initiated.
If both enable pins are left in the high state, the device operates in a shutdown mode, where the BP regulator
shuts down and minimal house keeping functions are active. The total standby current from both PVDD pins is
80 µA at 12-V input supply.
An R-C connect to an ENx pin may be used to delay the turnon of the associated output after power is applied to
PVDDx (see Figure 11). After power is applied to PVDD2, the voltage on the ENx pin slowly decays towards
ground. Once the voltage decays to approximately 1.25 V, then the output is enabled and the start-up sequence
begins. If it is desired to enable the outputs of the device immediately upon the application of power to the
PVDD2 pin, then omit these two components and tie the ENx pin to GND directly.
If an R-C circuit is used to delay the turnon of the output, the resistor value must be an order of magnitude less
than 1.25 V / 10 µA or 120 kΩ. A suggested value is 51 kΩ. This allows the ENx voltage to decay below the
1.25-V threshold while the 10-µA bias current flows.
The time to start (after the application of PVDD2) is Equation 1.

NOTE
If delayed output voltage start-up is not necessary, simply connect EN1 and EN2 to GND.
This allows the outputs to start immediately on the valid application of PVDD2.
If ENx is allowed to go high after the Outputx has been in regulation, the upper and lower
MOSFETs shut off, and the output decays at a rate determined by the output capacitor
and the load.
8.3.5 Soft Start
Each output has a dedicated soft-start circuit. The soft-start voltage is an internal digital reference ramp to one of
the two noninverting inputs of the error amplifier. The other input is the internal precise 0.8-V reference. The total
ramp time for the FB voltage to charge from 0 V to 0.8 V is about 5.2 ms, 2.6 ms, and 1.3 ms for TPS54190,
TPS54191, and TPS54192, respectively. During a soft-start interval, the TPS5429x output slowly increases the
voltage to the noninverting input of the error amplifier. In this way, the output voltage slowly ramps up until the
voltage on the noninverting input to the error amplifier reaches the internal 0.8-V reference voltage. At that time,
the voltage at the noninverting input to the error amplifier remains at the reference voltage.
During the soft-start interval, pulse-by-pulse current limiting is in effect. If an overcurrent pulse is detected, six
PWM pulses is skipped to allow the inductor current to decay before another PWM pulse is applied (see Output
Overload Protection). There is no pulse skipping if a current limit pulse is not detected.
If the rate of rise of the input voltage (PVDDx) is such that the input voltage is too low to support the desired
regulation voltage by the time soft start completes, the output UV circuit may trip and cause a hiccup in the
output voltage. In this case, use a timed delay start-up from the ENx pin to delay the start-up of the output until
the PVDDx voltage has the capability of supporting the desired regulation voltage.
8.3.6 Output Voltage Regulation
The regulation output voltage is determined by a resistor divider connecting the output node, the FBx pin, and
GND (Figure 13). The value of the output voltage is shown in Equation 2.

8.3.8 Maximum Output Capacitance
With internal pulse-by-pulse current limiting and a fixed soft-start time, there is a maximum output capacitance
which may be used before start-up problems begin to occur. If the output capacitance is large enough so that the
device enters a current-limit protection mode during start-up, then there is a possibility that the output never
reaches regulation. Instead, the TPS5429x simply shuts down and attempts a restart as if the output were shortcircuited to ground. The maximum output capacitance (including bypass capacitance distributed at the load) is
given by Equation 4.

8.3.9 Feedback Loop Compensation
In the feedback signal path, the output voltage setting divider is followed by an internal gM-type error amplifier
with a typical transconductance of 325 µS. An external series connected R-C circuit from the gM amplifier output
(COMPx pin) to ground serves as the compensation network for the converter. The signal from the error amplifier
output is then buffered and combined with a slope compensation signal before it is mirrored to be referenced to
the SW node. Here, it is compared with the current feedback signal to create a pulse-width-modulated (PWM)
signal-fed to drive the upper MOSFET switch. A simplified equivalent circuit of the signal control path is depicted
in Figure 14.

To determine the components necessary for compensating the feedback loop, the controller frequency response

ESR zero. If low-ESR capacitors are used, this capacitor may be omitted.

8.3.10 Bootstrap for N-Channel MOSFET
A bootstrap circuit provides a voltage source higher than the input voltage and of sufficient energy to fully
enhance the switching MOSFET each switching cycle. The PWM duty cycle is limited to maximum (that is, 90%
for TPS54291) allowing an external bootstrap capacitor to charge through an internal synchronous switch
(between BP and BOOTx) during every cycle. When the PWM switch is commanded to turn on, the energy used
to drive the MOSFET gate is derived from the voltage on this capacitor.
Because this is a charge transfer circuit, take care in selecting the value of the bootstrap capacitor. It must be
sized such that the energy stored in the capacitor on a per cycle basis is greater than the gate charge
requirement of the MOSFET being used. Typically a ceramic capacitor with a value from 22 nF to 68 nF is
selected for the bootstrap capacitor.
8.3.11 Output Overload Protection
In the event of an overcurrent on either output after the output reaches regulation, pulse-by-pulse current limit is
in effect for that output. In addition, an output undervoltage (UV) comparator monitors the FBx voltage (which
follows the output voltage) to declare a fault if the output drops below 85% of regulation. During this fault
condition, both PWM outputs are disabled. This ensures that both outputs discharge to GND, in the event that
overcurrent is on one output while the other is not loaded. The converter enters a hiccup mode timeout before
attempting to restart.
If an overcurrent condition exists during soft start, pulse-by-pulse current limiting reduces the pulse width of the
affected output’s PWM. In addition, if an overcurrent pulse is detected, six clock cycles are skipped before a next
PWM pulse is enabled, effectively dividing the PWM frequency by six and preventing excessive current build up
in the inductor. At the end of the soft-start time, a UV fault is declared and the operation is the same as
described above.

SLUS973A – OCTOBER 2009 – REVISED NOVEMBER 2016
Feature Description (continued)
The overcurrent threshold for Output1 and Output2 are set nominally 2.2 A and 3.8 A, respectively.
NOTE
Design hint: The OCP Threshold refers to the peak current in the internal switch. Be sure
to add the 1/2 of the peak inductor ripple current to the DC load current in determining
how close the actual operating point is to the OCP Threshold.
8.3.12 Operating Near Maximum Duty Cycle
If the TPS5429x is operated at maximum duty cycle, and if the input voltage is insufficient to support the output
voltage (at full load or during a load current transient) then there is a possibility that the output voltage falls from
regulation and trip the output UV comparator. If this must occur, the TPS5429x protection circuitry declares a
fault and enters hiccup mode.
NOTE
Design hint: Ensure that under ALL conditions of line and load regulation that there is
sufficient duty cycle to maintain output voltage regulation.
8.3.13 Dual-Supply Operation
It is possible to operate a TPS5429x from two supply voltages. If this application is desired, then the sequencing
of the supplies must be such that PVDD2 is above the UVLO voltage before PVDD1 begins to rise. This is to
ensure the internal regulator and the control circuitry is in operation before PVDD1 supplies energy to the output.
In addition, Output1 must be held in the disabled state (EN1 high) until there is sufficient voltage on PVDD1 to
support Output1 in regulation (see Operating Near Maximum Duty Cycle).
The preferred sequence of events follows:
1. PVDD2 rises above the input UVLO voltage
2. PVDD1 rises with Output1 disabled until PVDD1 rises above level to support Output1 regulation
With the two conditions above satisfied, there is no restriction on PVDD2 to be greater than, or less than PVDD1.
NOTE
Design hint: An R-C delay on EN1 may be used to delay the start-up of Output1 for a long
enough period of time to ensure PVDD1 can support Output1 load.
8.3.14 Bypassing and Filtering
As with any integrated circuit, supply bypassing is important for jitter-free operation. To improve the noise
immunity of the converter, ceramic bypass capacitors must be placed as close to the package as possible.
• PVDD1 to GND: Use a 10-µF ceramic capacitor
• PVDD2 to GND: Use a 10-µF ceramic capacitor
• BP to GND: Use a 4.7-µF ceramic capacitor
8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 PWM Operation
TPS5429X is a dual-channel synchronous buck converter. Normal operation occurs when VIN is above 4.5 V and
the EN1 and EN2 pins pulled low to enable the device.
8.4.2 Standby Operation
TPS5429X can be placed in standby when the EN1 and EN2 pins are set high, disabling the device.

A single 22-µF ceramic capacitor with approximately 2.5 mΩ of ESR is selected to provide sufficient margin for
capacitance loss due to DC voltage bias.
9.2.1.2.4 Input Capacitor Selection
A minimum 10-µF ceramic input capacitor on each PVDD pin is recommended. The ceramic capacitor must
handle the RMS ripple current in the input capacitor.
The RMS current in the input capacitors is estimated by Equation 28 and Equation 29.
IRMS(CIN1) = IOUT1 ´ D1 ´ (1 - D1 ) = 1.5 A ´ 0.413 ´ (1 - 0.413 ) = 0.74 A
(28)
IRMS(CIN2 ) = IOUT1 ´ D2 ´ (1 - D2 ) = 2.5 A ´ 0.15 ´ (1 - 0.15 ) = 0.89 A
(29)
One 1210 10-µF, 25-V, X5R, ceramic capacitor with 2-mΩ ESR and a 2-A RMS current rating are selected for
each PVDD input. Higher voltage capacitors are selected to minimize capacitance loss at the DC bias voltage to
ensure the capacitors have sufficient capacitance at the working voltage.
9.2.1.2.5 Feedback
The primary feedback divider resistor (RFB) from VOUT to FB must be selected between 10-kΩ and 100-kΩ to
maintain a balance between power dissipation and noise sensitivity. For a 3.3-V and 5-V output, 20.5 kΩ is
selected and the lower resistor is given by Equation 30.
V ´ RFB
RBIAS = FB
VOUT - VFB
(30)
For RFB = 20.5 kΩ and VFB = 0.8 V, RBIAS = 6.56 kΩ and 41.0 kΩ (6.49 kΩ and 40.2 kΩ selected) for 3.3 V and
1.2 V, respectively. It is common to select the next lower available resistor value for the bias resistor. This biases
the nominal output voltage slightly higher, allowing additional tolerance for load regulation.
9.2.1.2.6 Compensation Components
The TPS54291 controller uses a transconductance error amplifier, which is compensated with a series capacitor
and resistor to ground plus a high-frequency capacitor to reduce the gain at high frequency. To select the
component, Equation 31 to Equation 33 define the control loop and power stage gain and transfer function.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The device is designed to operate from an input-voltage supply range between 4.5 V and 18 V. This input supply
must be well regulated. If the input supply is placed more than a few inches from the converter, additional bulk
capacitance may be required in addition to the ceramic bypass capacitors. An electrolytic capacitor with a value
of 100 µF is a typical choice.
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
The PowerPAD™ must be connected to the low-current ground with available surface copper to dissipate
heat. TI recommends extending the ground land beyond the device package area between PVDD1 (pin 1)
and PVDD2 (pin 16) and between COMP1 (pin 8) and COMP2( pin 9).
Connect PGND1 and PGND2 to the PowerPAD™ through a 10-mil wide trace.
Place the ceramic input capacitors near PVDD1 and PVDD2 and bypass to PGND1 and PGND2,
respectively.
Place the inductor near the SW1 or SW2 pin.
Connect the output capacitor grounds to PGND1 or PGND2 with wide, tight loops.
Use a wide ground connection from input capacitor PGND1 or PGND2 as close to power path as possible. TI
recommends that they be placed directly underneath.
Place the bootstrap capacitor near the BOOT pin to minimize gate drive loop.
Place the feedback and compensation components far from switch node and input capacitor ground
connection.
Place the snubber components from SW1 or SW2 to PGND1 or PGND2 close to the device, minimizing the
loop area.
Place the BP bypass capacitor very close to device and bypass to PowerPAD™. Place output ceramic
capacitor close to inductor output terminal and between inductor and electrolytic capacitors if used.
11.1.1 PowerPAD™ Package
The PowerPAD™ package provides low thermal impedance for heat removal from the device. The PowerPAD™
derives its name and low thermal impedance from the large bonding pad on the bottom of the device. The circuit
board must have an area of solder-tinned-copper underneath the package. The dimensions of this area depend
on the size of the PowerPAD™ package. Thermal vias connect this area to internal or external copper planes
and must have a drill diameter sufficiently small so that the via hole is effectively plugged when the barrel of the
via is plated with copper. This plug is required to prevent wicking the solder away from the interface between the
package body and the solder-tinned area under the device during solder reflow. Drill diameters of 0.33 mm (13
mils) works well when 1-oz. copper is plated at the surface of the board while simultaneously plating the barrel of
the via. If the thermal vias are not plugged when the copper plating is performed, then a solder mask material
must be used to cap the vias with a diameter equal to the via diameter of 0.1 mm minimum. This capping
prevents the solder from being wicked through the thermal vias and potentially creating a solder void under the
package (see Related Documentation).

11.3 Overtemperature Protection and Junction Temperature Rise
The overtemperature thermal protection limits the maximum power to be dissipated at a given operating ambient
temperature. In other words, at a given device power dissipation, the maximum ambient operating temperature is
limited by the maximum allowable junction operating temperature. The device junction temperature is a function
of power dissipation, and the thermal impedance from the junction to the ambient. If the internal die temperature
must reach the thermal shutdown level, the TPS5429x shuts off both PWMs and remain in this state until the die
temperature drops below 125°C, at which time the device restarts.
The first step in determining the device junction temperature is to calculate the power dissipation. The power
dissipation is dominated by the two switching MOSFETs and the BP internal regulator. The power dissipated by
each MOSFET is composed of conduction losses and switching losses. The total conduction loss in the high-side
and low-side MOSFETs for each channel is given by Equation 42.

)
(
where
•
•
IO is the DC output current,
ΔIO is the peak-to-peak ripple current in the inductor
(42)
Notice the impact of operating duty cycle on the result.
The switching loss for each channel is approximated by Equation 43.
PD(SW ) =
VIN2 ´ C OSS (HS ) + C OSS (LS ) ´ fS
(
)
2
where
•
•
•
COSS(HS) is the output capacitance of the high-side MOSFET
COSS(LS) is the output capacitance of the low-side MOSFET
ƒS is the switching frequency
(43)
The total power dissipation is found by summing the power loss for both MOSFETs plus the loss in the internal
regulator (see Equation 44).
PD = PD(cond)output1 + PD(SW )output1 + PD(cond)output2 + PD(SW )output2 + VIN ´ Iq
(44)
The temperature rise of the device junction is dependent on the thermal impedance from junction to the mounting
pad, plus the thermal impedance from the thermal pad to ambient. The thermal impedance from the thermal pad
to ambient is dependent on the PCB layout (PowerPAD™ interface to the PCB, the exposed pad area) and
airflow (if any; see Related Documentation for more information).
The operating junction temperature is shown in Equation 45.

11.4 Power Derating
The TPS5429x delivers full current at wide duty cycles at ambient temperatures up to 85°C if the thermal
impedance from the thermal pad is sufficient to maintain the junction temperature below the thermal shutdown
level. At higher ambient temperatures, the device power dissipation must be reduced to maintain the junction
temperature at or below the thermal shutdown level. Figure 26 illustrates the power derating for elevated ambient
temperature under various air flow conditions. Note that these curves assume the PowerPAD™ is soldered to the
recommended thermal pad. See Related Documentation for further information.
