FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
•
The TPS56628 is an adaptive on-time D-CAP2™
mode synchronous buck converter. The TPS56628
enables system designers to complete the suite of
various end-equipment power bus regulators with a
cost effective, low component count, low standby
current solution. The main control loop for the
TPS56628 uses the D-CAP2™ mode control that
provides a fast transient response with no external
compensation components. The adaptive on-time
control supports seamless transition between PWM
mode at higher load conditions and Eco-mode™
operation at light loads. Eco-mode™ allows the
TPS56628 to maintain high efficiency during lighter
load conditions. The TPS56628 also has a proprietary
circuit that enables the device to adopt to both low
equivalent series resistance (ESR) output capacitors,
such as POSCAP or SP-CAP, and ultra-low ESR
ceramic capacitors. The device operates from 4.5-V
to 18-V VIN input. The output voltage can be
programmed between 0.76 V and 5.5 V. The
TPS56628 is available in the 8-pin DDA package,
and designed to operate from –40°C to 85°C.

SLVSC94A – OCTOBER 2013 – REVISED DECEMBER 2013
OVERVIEW
The TPS56628 is a 6-A synchronous step-down (buck) converter with two integrated N-channel MOSFETs with
Auto-Skip mode to improve light load efficiency. It operates using D-CAP2™ mode control. The fast transient
response of D-CAP2™ control reduces the output capacitance required to meet a specific level of performance.
Proprietary internal circuitry allows the use of low ESR output capacitors including ceramic and special polymer
types. The PG output can be used for sequence operation.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
PWM Operation
The main control loop of the TPS56628 is an adaptive on-time pulse width modulation (PWM) controller that
supports a proprietary D-CAP2™ mode control. D-CAP2™ mode control combines adaptive on-time control with
an internal compensation circuit for pseudo-fixed frequency and low external component count configuration with
both low ESR and ceramic output capacitors. It is stable even with virtually no ripple at the output.
At the beginning of each cycle, the high-side MOSFET is turned on. This MOSFET is turned off after internal one
shot timer expires. This one shot is set by the converter input voltage, VIN, and the output voltage, VO, to
maintain a pseudo-fixed frequency over the input voltage range, hence it is called adaptive on-time control. The
one-shot timer is reset and the high-side MOSFET is turned on again when the feedback voltage falls below the
reference voltage. An internal ramp is added to reference voltage to simulate output ripple, eliminating the need
for ESR induced output ripple from D-CAP2™ mode control.
PWM Frequency and Adaptive On-Time Control
TPS56628 uses an adaptive on-time control scheme and does not have a dedicated on board oscillator. The
TPS56628 runs with a pseudo-constant frequency of 650 kHz by using the input voltage and output voltage to
set the on-time one-shot timer. The on-time is inversely proportional to the input voltage and proportional to the
output voltage; therefore, when the duty ratio is VOUT/VIN, the frequency is constant.
Auto-Skip Eco-mode™ Control
The TPS56628 is designed with Auto-Skip Eco-mode™ to increase light load efficiency. As the output current
decreases from heavy load condition, the inductor current is also reduced and eventually comes to a point where
its rippled valley touches zero level, which is the boundary between continuous conduction and discontinuous
conduction modes. The rectifying MOSFET is turned off when its zero inductor current is detected. As the load
current further decreases the converters runs in discontinuous conduction mode. The on-time is kept almost the
same as it was in the continuous conduction mode so that it takes longer time to discharge the output capacitor
with smaller load current to the level of the reference voltage. The transition point to the light load operation
IOUT(LL) current can be calculated in Equation 1
(VIN - VOUT )×VOUT
1
×
I OUT ( LL ) =
2 × L × fsw
VIN
(1)
Soft Start and Pre-Biased Soft Start
The TPS56628 has an internal 1.0 ms soft-start. When the EN pin becomes high, internal soft-start function
begins ramping up the reference voltage to the PWM comparator.
The TPS56628 contains a unique circuit to prevent current from being pulled from the output during startup if 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 low side FET gate driver pulses with a narrow on-time. It then increments that on-time on a cycle-bycycle 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 ensure that the out voltage (VO) starts and ramps
up smoothly into regulation and the control loop is given time to transition from pre-biased start-up to normal
mode operation.

Power Good
The power-good function is activated after soft start has finished. The power good function becomes active after
1.7 times soft-start time. When the output voltage becomes within -10% of the target value, internal comparators
detect power good state and the power good signal becomes high. The power good output, PG is an open drain
output. If the feedback voltage goes under 15% of the target value, the power good signal becomes low. Rpg
resistor value, which is connected between PG and VREG5, is required from 25kΩ to 150kΩ.
Current Protection
The output overcurrent protection (OCP) is implemented using a cycle-by-cycle valley detect control circuit. The
switch current is monitored by measuring the low-side FET switch voltage between the SW pin and GND. This
voltage is proportional to the switch current. To improve accuracy, the voltage sensing is temperature
compensated.
During the on time of the high-side FET switch, the switch current increases at a linear rate determined by VIN,
VOUT, the on-time and the output inductor value. During the on time of the low-side FET switch, this current
decreases linearly. The average value of the switch current is the load current IOUT. The TPS56628 constantly
monitors the low-side FET switch voltage, which is proportional to the switch current, during the low-side on-time.
If the measured voltage is above the voltage proportional to the current limit, an internal counter is incremented
per each SW cycle and the converter maintains the low-side switch on until the measured voltage is below the
voltage corresponding to the current limit at which time the switching cycle is terminated and a new switching
cycle begins. In subsequent switching cycles, the on-time is set to a fixed value and the current is monitored in
the same manner. If the over current condition exists for 7 consecutive switching cycles, the internal OCL
threshold is set to a lower level, reducing the available output current. When a switching cycle occurs where the
switch current is not above the lower OCL threshold, the counter is reset and the OCL limit is returned to the
higher value.
There are some important considerations for this type of over-current protection. The load current one half of the
peak-to-peak inductor current is higher than the over-current threshold also when the current is being limited, the
output voltage tends to fall as the demanded load current may be higher than the current available from the
converter. This may cause the output voltage to fall. When the VFB voltage becomes lower than 65% of the
target voltage, the UVP comparator detects it. After 250 µs detecting the UVP voltage, device will shut down and
re-start after approximately 12ms hiccup time
When the over-current condition is removed, the output voltage returns to the regulated value.
Overvoltage Protection
TPS56628 detects overvoltage conditions by monitoring the feedback voltage (VFB). This function is enabled
after approximately 1.7 x times the soft start time. When the feedback voltage becomes higher than 125% of the
target voltage, the OVP comparator output goes high and both the high-side MOSFET driver and the low-side
MOSFET driver turn off. This function is non-latch operation.
UVLO Protection
Undervoltage lock out protection (UVLO) monitors the voltage of the VREG5 pin. When the VREG5 voltage is
lower than UVLO threshold voltage, the TPS56628 is shut off. This protection is non-latching.
Thermal Shutdown
TPS56628 monitors the temperature of itself. If the temperature exceeds the threshold value (typically 165°C),
the device is shut off. This is non-latch protection.

Output Voltage Resistors Selection
The output voltage is set with a resistor divider from the output node to the VFB pin. It is recommended to use
1% tolerance or better divider resistors. Start by using Equation 2 to calculate VOUT.
To improve efficiency at light loads consider using larger value resistors, high resistance is more susceptible to
noise, and the voltage errors from the VFB input current are more noticeable.

At low frequencies, the overall loop gain is set by the output set-point resistor divider network and the internal
gain of the TPS56628. The low frequency phase is 180 degrees. At the output filter pole frequency, the gain rolls
off at a –40 dB per decade rate and the phase drops rapidly. D-CAP2™ introduces a high frequency zero that
reduces the gain roll off to –20 dB per decade and increases the phase to 90 degrees one decade above the
zero frequency. The inductor and capacitor for the output filter must be selected so that the double pole of
Equation 3 is located below the high frequency zero but close enough that the phase boost provided be the high
frequency zero provides adequate phase margin for a stable circuit. To meet this requirement use the values
recommended in Table 1

Optional
For higher output voltages, additional phase boost can be achieved by adding a feed forward capacitor (C4) in
parallel with R1
The inductor peak-to-peak ripple current, peak current and RMS current are calculated using Equation 4,
Equation 5 and Equation 6. The inductor saturation current rating must be greater than the calculated peak
current and the RMS or heating current rating must be greater than the calculated RMS current.
Use 650 kHz for fSW. Make sure the chosen inductor is rated for the peak current of Equation 5 and the RMS
current of Equation 6.

For this design example, the calculated peak current is 6.51 A and the calculated RMS current is 6.01 A. The
inductor used is a TDK SPM6530-1R5M100 with a peak current rating of 11.5 A and an RMS current rating of 11
A.
The capacitor value and ESR determines the amount of output voltage ripple. The TPS56628 is intended for use
with ceramic or other low ESR capacitors. Recommended values range from 22µF to 68µF. Use Equation 7 to
determine the required RMS current rating for the output capacitor.

For this design two TDK C3216X5R0J226M 22µF output capacitors are used. The typical ESR is 2 mΩ each.
The calculated RMS current is 0.286 A and each output capacitor is rated for 4A.

Input Capacitor Selection
The TPS56628 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 (C3) from pin 8 to ground is optional to provide additional high frequency filtering. The capacitor voltage
rating needs to be greater than the maximum input voltage.
Bootstrap Capacitor Selection
A 0.1 µF. ceramic capacitor must be connected between the VBST to SW pin for proper operation. It is
recommended to use a ceramic capacitor.
VREG5 Capacitor Selection
A 1-µF ceramic capacitor must be connected between the VREG5 to GND pin for proper operation. It is
recommended to use a ceramic capacitor.
THERMAL INFORMATION
This 8-pin DDA package incorporates an exposed thermal pad that is designed to be directly attached to an
external heatsink. The thermal pad must be soldered to the printed circuit board (PCB). After soldering, the PCB
can be used as a heartsick. In addition, through the use of thermal vias, the thermal pad can be attached directly
to the appropriate copper plane shown in the electrical schematic for the device, or alternatively, can be attached
to a special heartsick structure designed into the PCB. This design optimizes the heat transfer from the
integrated circuit (IC).
For additional information on the exposed thermal pad and how to use the advantage of its heat dissipating
abilities, see the Technical Brief, PowerPAD™ Thermally Enhanced Package, Texas Instruments Literature No.
SLMA002 and Application Brief, PowerPAD™ Made Easy, Texas Instruments Literature No. SLMA004.
The exposed thermal pad dimensions for this package are shown in the following illustration.

LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
1. The TPS56628 can supply large load currents up to 6 A, so heat dissipation may be a concern. The top side
area of PCB adjacent to the TPS56628 should be filled with ground as much as possible to dissipate heat.
2. The bottom side area directly below the IC should a dedicated ground area. It should be directly connected
to the thermal pad of the device using vias as shown. The ground area should be as large as practical.
Additional internal layers can be dedicated as ground planes and connected to the vias as well.
3. Keep the input switching current loop as small as possible.
4. Keep the SW node as physically small and short as possible to minimize parasitic capacitance and
inductance and to minimize radiated emissions. Kelvin connections should be brought from the output to the
feedback pin of the device.
5. Keep analog and non-switching components away from switching components.
6. Make a single point connection from the signal ground to power ground.
7. Do not allow switching current to flow under the device.
8. Keep the pattern lines for VIN, SW, and PGND (POWERGROUND) broad.
9. Exposed pad of device must be connected to PGND with solder.
10. VREG5 capacitor should be placed near the device, and connected PGND.
11. Output capacitor should be connected to a broad pattern of the PGND.
12. Voltage feedback loop should be as short as possible, and preferably with ground shield.
13. Lower resistor of the voltage divider which is connected to the VFB pin should be tied to ANALOG
GROUND.
14. Providing sufficient via is preferable for VIN, SW and PGND connection.
15. VFB node should be as short as possible.
16. VIN Capacitor should be placed as near as possible to the device.
