TPS6108x High-Voltage DC-DC Boost Converter With 0.5-A,1.3-A Integrated Switch
1 Features
3 Description
•
•
•
The TPS6108x is a 1.2 MHz/600 kHz fixed-frequency
boost regulator designed for high integration, which
integrates a power switch, an I/O isolation switch, and
a power diode. When a short-circuit condition is
detected, the isolation switch opens up to disconnect
the output from the input. As a result, the IC protects
itself and the input source from any pin, except VIN,
from being shorted to ground. The isolation switch
also disconnects the output from input during
shutdown to prevent any leakage current. Other
provisions for protection include 0.5 A/1.3 A peak-topeak overcurrent protection, programmable soft start
(SS), over voltage protection (OVP), thermal
shutdown, and under voltage lockout (UVLO).

and consumes less than 2 μA current.
FB
5
I
Voltage feedback pin for the output regulation. It is regulated to an internal reference voltage. An external
voltage divider from the output to GND with the center tap connected to this pin programs the regulated
voltage. This pin can also be connected to a low side current sense resistor to program current regulation.
FSW

I
Switching frequency selection pin. Logic high on the pin selects 1.2 MHz, while logic low reduces the
frequency to 600 kHz for better light load efficiency.
GND

L
1
I
The inductor is connected between this pin and the SW pin. This pin connects to the source of the isolation
FET as well. Minimize trace area at this pin to reduce EMI.
OUT

O
Output of the boost regulator. When the output voltage exceeds the 27-V overvoltage protection (OVP)
threshold, the PWM switch turns off until Vout drops 0.7V below the overvoltage threshold.
PGND
8
Signal ground of the IC
Power ground of the IC. It is connected to the source of the PWM switch. This pin should be made very
close to the output capacitor in layout.
SS

I
Soft start programming pin. A capacitor between the SS pin and GND pin programs soft start timing.
SW

I
Switching node of the IC. Connect the inductor between this pin and the L pin.
VIN
2
I
Input pin to the IC. It is the input to the boost regulator, and also powers the IC circuit. It is connected to
the drain of the isolation FET as well.
Thermal Pad
–
The thermal pad should be soldered to the analog ground. If possible, use thermal via to connect to ground
plane for ideal power dissipation.

SLVS644E – FEBRUARY 2006 – REVISED DECEMBER 2014
9 Detailed Description
9.1 Overview
TPS6108x is a highly integrated boost regulator for up to 27-V output. In addition to the on-chip 0.5-A/1.2-A
PWM switch and power diode, this IC also builds in an input side isolation switch as shown in the block diagram.
One common issue with conventional boost regulator is the conduction path from input to output even when
PWM switch is turned off. It creates three problems, inrush current during start up, output leakage voltage under
shutdown, and unlimited short circuit current. To address these issues, TPS6108x turns off the isolation switch
under shutdown mode and short circuit condition to eliminate any possible current path.
TPS6108x adopts current mode control with constant PWM (pulse width modulation) frequency. The switching
frequency can be configured to either 600 kHz or 1.2 MHz through the FSW pin. 600 kHz improves light load
efficiency, while 1.2 MHz allows using smaller external component. The PWM operation turns on the PWM
switch at the beginning of each switching cycle. The input voltage is applied across the inductor and stores the
energy as inductor current ramps up. The load current is provided by the output capacitor. When the inductor
current across the threshold set by error amplifier output, the PWM switch is turned off, and the power diode is
forward biased. The inductor transfers its stored energy to replenish the output capacitor. This operation repeats
in the next switching cycle.
The error amplifier compares the FB pin voltage with an internal reference, and its output determines the duty
cycle of the PWM switching. This close loop system requires loop compensation for stable operation. TPS6108x
has internal compensation circuitry which accommodates a wide range of input and output voltages. The
TPS6108x integrates slope compensation to the current ramp to avoid the sub-harmonic oscillation that is
intrinsic to current mode control schemes.

9.3 Feature Description
9.3.1 Start Up
TPS6108x turns on the isolation FET when the EN pin is pulled high, provided that the input voltage is higher
than the undervoltage lockout threshold. The Vgs of the isolation FET is clamped to maintain high on-resistance
and limits the current to 30mA charging the output capacitor. This feature limits the in-rush current and maximum
start up current to 30mA. Once the output capacitor is charged to VIN, the IC removes the Vgs clamp to fully turn
on the isolation FET and at the same time actives soft start by charging the capacitor on the SS pin. If OUT stays
lower than VIN-Vsc following a 1.7ms delay after enable is taken high, the IC recognizes a short circuit condition.
In this case, the isolation FET turns off, and IC remains off until the EN pin toggles or VIN cycles through power
on reset (POR).
During the soft start phase, the SS pin capacitor is charged by internal bias current of the SS pin. The SS pin
capacitor programs the ramp up slope. The SS pin voltage clamps the reference voltage of the FB pin, therefore
the output capacitor rise time follows the SS pin voltage. Without the soft start, the inductor current could reach
the overcurrent limit threshold, and there is potential for output overshoot. see the Application and
Implementation section on selecting soft start capacitor values. Pulling the SS pin to ground disables the PWM
switching. However, unlike being disabled by pulling EN low, the IC continues to draw quiescent current and the
isolation FET remains on.
9.3.2 Overcurrent and Short Circuit Protection
TPS6108x has a pulse by pulse overcurrent limit feature which turns off the power switch once the inductor
current reaches the overcurrent limit. The PWM circuitry resets itself at the beginning of the next switch cycle.
The overcurrent threshold determines the available output current. However, the maximum output is also a
function of the input voltage, output voltage, switching frequency and inductor value. Larger inductor values and
1.2MHz switching frequency increase the current output capability because of the reduced current ripple. See the
APPLICATION INFORMATION section for the maximum output current calculation.
In typical boost converter topologies, if the output is grounded, turning off the power switch does not limit the
current because a current path exists from the input to output through the inductor and power diode. To eliminate
this path, TPS6108x turns off the isolation FET between the input and the inductor. This circuit is triggered when
the inductor current remains above short circuit current limit for more than 13μs, or the OUT pin voltage falls
below VIN-1.4V for more than 1.7ms. An internal catch-diode between the L pin and ground turns on to provide a
current discharge path for the inductor. If the short is caused by the output being low, then the IC shuts down
and waits for EN to be toggled or a POR. If the short protection is triggered by short circuit current limit, the IC
attempts to start up one time. After 57ms, the IC restarts in a fashion described in the above section. If the short
is cleared, the boost regulator properly starts up and reaches output regulation. However, after reaching
regulation, if another event of short circuit current limit occurs, the IC goes into shutdown mode again, and the
fault can only be cleared by toggling the EN pin or POR. Under a permanent short circuit, the IC shuts down after
a start up failure and waits for POR or the EN pin toggling.
The same circuit also protects the ICs and external components when the SW pin is shorted to ground. These
features provide much more comprehensive and reliable protection than the conventional boost regulator.
Table 2 lists the IC protection against the short of each IC pin.
