Introduction
1.1
Background
The TPS54618 dc/dc converter is designed to provide up to a 6-A output from an input voltage source of
2.95 V to 6 V. Rated input voltage and output current range for the evaluation module are given in
Table 1. This evaluation module is designed to demonstrate the small printed-circuit-board (PCB) areas
that may be achieved when designing with the TPS54618 regulator. The switching frequency is externally
set at a nominal 1000 kHz. The high-side and low-side MOSFETs are incorporated inside the TPS54618
package along with the gate-drive circuitry. The low drain-to-source on-resistance of the MOSFETs allows
the TPS54618 to achieve high efficiencies and helps keep the junction temperature low at high output
currents. The compensation components are external to the integrated circuit (IC), and an external divider
allows for an adjustable output voltage. Additionally, the TPS54618 provides adjustable slow start and
undervoltage lockout inputs. The absolute maximum input voltage is 7 V for the TPS54618EVM-606.

Modifications
These evaluation modules are designed to provide access to the features of the TPS54618. Some
modifications can be made to this module.
1.3.1
Output Voltage Set Point
The voltage divider R9 and R10 is used to set the output voltage. To change the output voltage of the
EVM, it is necessary to change the value of resistor R10. Changing the value of R10 can change the
output voltage above 0.799 V. The value of R10 for a specific output voltage can be calculated using
Equation 1.
0.799 V
R10 = 100 kΩ ×
VOUT - 0.799 V
(1)
Table 3 lists the R10 values for some common output voltages. Note that VIN must be in a range so that
the minimum on-time is greater than 75 ns, and the maximum duty cycle is less than 92%. The values
given in Table 3 are standard values, not the exact value calculated using Equation 1.

Slow-Start Time
The slow-start time can be adjusted by changing the value of C7. Use Equation 2 to calculate the required
value of C7 for a desired slow-start time.
Tss(mS) ´ Iss(mA)
C7(nF) =
Vref(V)
(2)
Where Iss = 2 µA.
C7 is set to 0.01 μF on the EVM for a default slow-start time of 4 ms.
1.3.3
Adjustable Undervoltage Lockout
The undervoltage lockout (UVLO) can be adjusted externally using R1 and R2. The EVM is set for a start
voltage of 2.8 V and a stop voltage of 2.6 V using R1 = 25.6 kΩ and R2 = 20 kΩ. Use Equation 3 and
Equation 4 along with notes included in the TPS54618 datasheet to calculate required resistor values for
different start and stop voltages.

Test Setup and Results
This section describes how to properly connect, set up, and use the TPS54618EVM-606 evaluation
module. The section also includes test results typical for the evaluation module and covers efficiency,
output voltage regulation, load transients, loop response, output ripple, input ripple, and start-up.
2.1
Input/Output Connections
The TPS54618EVM-606 is provided with input/output connectors and test points as shown in Table 4. A
power supply capable of supplying 3 A must be connected to J1 through a pair of 20 AWG wires. The load
must be connected to J3 through a pair of 20 AWG wires. The maximum load-current capability must be
at least 6 A to use the full capability of this EVM. Wire lengths must be minimized to reduce losses in the
wires. Test-point TP1 provides a place to monitor the VIN input voltages with TP2 providing a convenient
ground reference. TP8 is used to monitor the output voltage with TP9 as the ground reference.

Powering Up
Figure 9 and Figure 10 show the start-up waveforms for the TPS54618EVM-606. In Figure 9, the output
voltage ramps up as soon as the input voltage reaches the UVLO threshold as set by the R1 and R2
resistor divider network. In Figure 10, the input voltage is initially applied and the output is inhibited by
using a jumper at JP1 to tie EN to GND. When the jumper is removed, EN is released. When the EN
voltage reaches the enable-threshold voltage, the start-up sequence begins, and the output voltage ramps
up to the externally set value of 1.8 V. The input voltage for these plots is 5 V and the load is 1 Ω.

Board Layout
This section provides a description of the TPS54618EVM-606, board layout, and layer illustrations.
3.1
Layout
Figure 11 through Figure 15 show the board layout for the TPS54618EVM-606. The top-side layer of the
EVM is laid out in a manner typical of a user application. The top, bottom, and internal layers are 2-oz.
copper.
The top layer contains the main power traces for VIN, VOUT, and VPHASE. Also on the top layer are
connections for the remaining pins of the TPS54618 and a large area filled with ground. The bottom and
internal layers contain ground planes only. The top-side ground areas are connected to the bottom and
internal ground planes with multiple vias placed around the board including four vias directly under the
TPS54618 device to provide a thermal path from the top-side ground area to the bottom-side and internal
ground planes.
The input decoupling capacitors (C2, C3, and C4) and bootstrap capacitor (C8) are all located as close to
the IC as possible. In addition, the voltage set-point resistor divider components are also located close to
the IC. The voltage divider network ties to the output voltage at the point of regulation, the copper VOUT
trace near the output connector J3. For the TPS54618, an additional input bulk capacitor may be required,
depending on the EVM connection to the input supply.
