SLVSFW4 – MARCH 2022
TPS629206-Q1 600-mA, 3-V to 17-V Automotive Low IQ Buck Converter
1 Features
3 Description
•
The automotive-qualified TPS6292xx-Q1 family of
devices are highly efficient, small, and highly flexible
synchronous step-down DC-DC converters that are
easy to use. A wide 3-V to 17-V input voltage range
supports a wide variety of systems powered from
either 12-V, 5-V, or 3.3-V supply rails, or single-cell
or multi-cell Li-Ion batteries. The TPS629206-Q1 can
be configured to run at either 2.5 MHz or 1 MHz
in a forced PWM mode or a variable frequency
(auto PFM) mode. In auto PFM mode, the device
automatically transitions to power save mode at
light loads to maintain high efficiency. The low 4-µA
typical quiescent current also provides high efficiency
down to the smallest loads. TI's automatic efficiency
enhancement (AEE) mode holds a high conversion
efficiency through the whole operation range without
the need of using different inductors by automatically
adjusting the switching frequency based on input and
output voltages. In addition to selecting the switching
frequency behavior, the MODE/S-CONF input pin can
also be used to select between different combinations
of external and internal feedback dividers and
enabling and disabling the output voltage discharge
capability. In the internal feedback configuration, a
resistor between the FB/VSET pin and GND can be
used to select between 18 different output voltage
options (see Table 8-2).

This is for capacitors directly at the output of the device. More capacitance is allowed if there is a series resistance associated to the
capacitor.
Nominal inductance value
Not recommended for 1-MHz operation
Larger values of inductance can be used to reduce the ripple current, but they can have a negative impact on efficiency and the overall
transient response.
Operating lifetime is derated at junction temperatures greater than 150°C.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The TPS629206-Q1 synchronous switched mode power converter is based on DCS-Control (Direct Control with
Seamless Transition into power save mode), an advanced regulation topology that combines the advantages
of hysteretic, voltage mode, and current mode control. This control loop takes information about output voltage
changes and feeds it directly to a fast comparator stage. It sets the switching frequency, which is constant for
steady state operating conditions, and provides immediate response to dynamic load changes. To get accurate
DC load regulation, a voltage feedback loop is used. The internally compensated regulation network achieves
fast and stable operation with small external components and low-ESR capacitors.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Mode Selection and Device Configuration (MODE/S-CONF Pin)
The MODE/S-CONF pin is an input with two functions. It can be used to customize the device behavior in two
ways:
• Select the device mode (forced PWM or auto PFM/PWM operation) traditionally with a HIGH or LOW level.
• Select the device configuration (switching frequency, internal and external feedback, output discharge, and
PFM/PWM mode) by connecting a single resistor to this pin.
The device interprets this pin during its start-up sequence after the internal OTP readout and before it starts
switching in soft start. If the device reads a HIGH or LOW level, dynamic mode change is active and PFM/PWM

8.3.2 Adjustable VO Operation (External Voltage Divider)
If the device is configured to operate in classical adjustable VO operation, the FB/VSET pin is used as

output voltage cannot be changed afterward without toggling the EN pin.
Figure 8-3 shows the typical schematic for this configuration, where VO is directly sensed at the VOS pin of the
device. VO is sensed only through the VOS pin by an internal resistor divider. The target VO is programmed by
an external resistor connected between VSET and GND (see Table 8-2).

8.3.4 Smart Enable with Precise Threshold
The voltage applied at the EN pin of the TPS629206-Q1 is compared to a fixed threshold rising voltage. This
allows the user to drive the pin by a slowly changing voltage and enables the use of an external RC network to
achieve a power-up delay.
The precise enable input allows the use of a user-programmable undervoltage lockout by adding a resistor
divider to the input of the EN pin.
The enable input threshold for a falling edge is lower than the rising edge threshold. The TPS629206-Q1 starts
operation when the rising threshold is exceeded. For proper operation, the EN pin must be terminated and must
not be left floating. Pulling the EN pin low forces the device into shutdown. In this mode, the internal high-side
and low-side MOSFETs are turned off and the entire internal control circuitry is switched off.
An internal resistor pulls the EN pin to GND and avoids the pin to be floating. This prevents an uncontrolled
start-up of the device in case the EN pin cannot be driven to a low level safely. With EN low, the device is in
shutdown mode. The device is turned on with EN set to a high level. The pulldown control circuit disconnects the
pulldown resistor on the EN pin once the internal control logic and the reference have been powered up. With
EN set to a low level, the device enters shutdown mode and the pulldown resistor is activated again.

8.3.5 Power Good (PG)
The TPS629206-Q1 has a built-in power-good (PG) feature to indicate whether the output voltage has reached
its target and the device is ready. The PG signal can be used for start-up sequencing of multiple rails. The PG
pin is an open-drain output that requires a pullup resistor to any voltage up to the recommended input voltage
level. PG is low when the device is turned off due to EN, UVLO (undervoltage lockout), or thermal shutdown. VIN
must remain present for the PG pin to stay low.
If the power-good output is not used, it is recommended to tie to GND or leave open.

8.3.6 Output Discharge Function
The purpose of the discharge function is to make sure there is a defined down-ramp of the output voltage
when the device is being disabled but also to keep the output voltage close to 0 V when the device is off. The
output discharge feature is only active once the TPS629206-Q1 has been enabled at least once since the supply
voltage was applied. The internal discharge resistor is connected to the VOS pin. The discharge function is
enabled as soon as the device is disabled (EN pin = low), in thermal shutdown, or in undervoltage lockout. The
minimum supply voltage required for the discharge function to remain active typically is 2 V.
8.3.7 Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
If the input voltage drops, the undervoltage lockout prevents mis-operation of the device by switching off both
the power FETs. The device is fully operational for voltages above the rising UVLO threshold and turns off if the
input voltage trips below the threshold for a falling supply voltage.
8.3.8 Current Limit and Short Circuit Protection
The TPS629206-Q1 is protected against overload and short circuit events. If the inductor current exceeds the
current limit, ILIM_HS, the high-side switch is turned off and the low-side switch is turned on to ramp down the
inductor current. The high-side FET turns on again only if the current in the low-side FET has decreased below
the low-side current limit threshold, ILIM_LS.
Due to internal propagation delay, the actual current can exceed the static current limit during that time. The
dynamic current limit is given in Equation 1.
Ipeak (typ ) = ILIMH +
VL
´ tPD
L

where:
•

•
•
ILIMH is the static current limit as specified in the electrical characteristics.
L is the effective inductance at the peak current.
VL is the voltage across the inductor (VIN – VOUT).
tPD is the internal propagation delay of typically 50 ns.
The current limit can exceed static values, especially if the input voltage is high and very small inductances are
used. The dynamic high-side switch peak current can be calculated as follows:

The TPS629206-Q1 also includes a low-side negative current limit (ILIM:SINK) to protect against excessive
negative currents that can occur in forced PMW mode under heavy to light load transient conditions. If the
negative current in the low-side switch exceeds the ILIM:SINK threshold, the low-side switch is disabled. Both the
low-side and high-side switches remain off until an internal timer re-enables the high-side switch based on the
selected PWM switching frequency.
CAUTION
It is recommended that the inductor be sized such that the inductor ripple current, ΔIL (see Equation
9), does not exceed 1.6 A to avoid the potential for continuous operation of the negative current limit
with no output load (IO = 0 A).
8.3.9 Thermal Shutdown
The junction temperature of the device, TJ, is monitored by an internal temperature sensor. If TJ rises and
exceeds the thermal shutdown threshold, TSD, the device shuts down. Both the high-side and low-side power
FETs are turned off and PG goes low. When TJ decreases below the hysteresis, the converter resumes normal
operation, beginning with soft start. During a PFM skip pause, the thermal shutdown feature is not active. A
shutdown or restart is only triggered during a switching cycle. See Section 8.4.2.
8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 Forced Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Operation
The TPS629206-Q1 has two operating modes: forced PWM mode discussed in this section and auto PFM/PWM
mode as discussed in Section 8.4.2.
With the MODE/S-CONF pin set to forced PWM mode, the device operates with pulse width modulation in
continuous conduction mode (CCM) with a nominal switching frequency of either 1.0 MHz or 2.5 MHz. The
frequency variation in PWM is controlled and depends on VIN, VOUT, and the inductance. The on time in forced
PWM mode is given by Equation 3.
TON
VOUT 1
u
VIN
f sw
(3)
For very small output voltages, an absolute minimum on time of about 40 ns is kept to limit switching losses. The
operating frequency is thereby reduced from its nominal value, which keeps efficiency high.

8.4.2 Power Save Mode Operation (Auto PFM/PWM)
When the MODE/S-CONF pin is configured for auto PFM/PWM mode, power save mode is allowed. The device
operates in PWM mode as long the output current is higher than half the ripple current of the inductor. To
maintain high efficiency at light loads, the device enters power save mode at the boundary to discontinuous
conduction mode (DCM). This happens if the output current becomes smaller than half the ripple current of the
inductor. Power save mode is entered seamlessly to make sure there is high efficiency in light-load operation.
The device remains in power save mode as long as the inductor current is discontinuous.
In power save mode, the switching frequency decreases linearly with the load current maintaining high efficiency.
The transition into and out of power save mode is seamless in both directions.
The TPS629206-Q1 adjusts the on time (TON) in power save mode, depending on the input voltage and the
output voltage to maintain highest efficiency. The on time in steady-state operation can be estimated as:
With the MODE/S-CONF pin set to 1.0-MHz operation:
610 (µO) =
VOUT

With the MODE/S-CONF pin set to 2.5-MHz operation:

Note
When VIN decreases to typically 15% above VOUT, the device will not enter power save mode
regardless of the load current. The device maintains output regulation in PWM mode.
8.4.3 AEE (Automatic Efficiency Enhancement)
When the MODE/S-CONF pin is configured for auto PFM/PWM with AEE mode, the TPS629206-Q1 provides
the highest efficiency over the entire input voltage and output voltage range by automatically adjusting the
switching frequency of the converter (see Equation 8). To keep the efficiency high over the entire duty
cycle range, the switching frequency is adjusted while maintaining the ripple current amplitudes. This feature
compensates for the very small duty cycles of high VIN to low VOUT conversions, which can limit the control
range in other topologies.

Traditionally, the efficiency of a switched mode converter decreases if VOUT decreases, VIN increases, or both.
By decreasing the switching losses at lower VOUT values or higher VIN values, the AEE feature provides an
efficiency enhancement across various duty cycles, especially for the lower VOUT values, where fixed frequency

converters suffer from a significant efficiency drop. Furthermore, when used with the recommended 2.2-μH
inductor, the ripple current amplitudes remains low enough to deliver the full output current without reaching
current limit across the entire range of input and output voltages (see Figure 8-4).
By using the same TON configuration (see Equation 9) across the entire load range in AEE mode, the inductor
ripple current in AEE mode becomes effectively independent of the output voltage and can be approximated by
Equation 9:

Figure 8-4. Typical Inductor Ripple Current Versus Input Voltage in AEE Mode
The TPS629206-Q1 operates in AEE mode as long as the output current is higher than half the ripple current
of the inductor. To maintain high efficiency at light loads, the device enters power save mode at the boundary
to discontinuous mode (DCM), which happens when the output current becomes smaller than half the inductor
ripple current.
8.4.4 100% Duty-Cycle Operation
The duty cycle of the buck converter operated in PWM mode is given in Equation 10.
VOUT
&=
(10)
8+0
The duty cycle increases as the input voltage comes close to the output voltage and the off time of the high-side
switch gets smaller. When the minimum off time of typically 80 ns is reached, the TPS629206-Q1 scales down
its switching frequency while it approaches 100% mode. In 100% mode, the device keeps the high-side switch
on continuously as long as the output voltage is below the internal set point. This allows the conversion of
small input to output voltage differences. For example, getting the longest operation time of battery-powered
applications. In 100% duty cycle mode, the low-side FET is switched off.
The minimum input voltage to maintain output voltage regulation, depending on the load current and the output
voltage level, can be calculated as:
VIN (min) = VOUT + IOUT (RDS ( on ) + RL )
(11)
where:
• IOUT is the output current.

RDS(on) is the on-state resistance of the high-side FET.
RL is the DC resistance of the inductor used.
8.4.5 Starting into a Prebiased Load
The TPS629206-Q1 is capable of starting into a prebiased output. The device only starts switching when the
internal soft-start ramp is equal or higher than the feedback voltage. If the voltage at the feedback pin is biased
to a higher voltage than the nominal value, the TPS629206-Q1 does not start switching unless the voltage at the
feedback pin drops to the target. Performance is the same for devices configured for VSET operation (internal
feedback), however, the switching will be delayed until the soft-start ramp reaches the internal feedback voltage.

loop of the device. The TPS629206-Q1 is optimized to work within a range of external components.
9.2.2.3.1 Output Filter and Loop Stability
The TPS629206-Q1 is internally compensated to be stable with a range of LC filter combinations. The LC output

This LC combination is the standard value and recommended for most applications.
Output capacitance needs to have an ESR of ≥ 10 mΩ for stable operation. See Section 9.3.1.
Not recommended for 1-MHz operation
At full load, ILpeak can exceed ILIM_HS at higher input or output voltages.
Although the TPS629206-Q1 is stable without the pole and zero being in a particular location, an external
feedforward capacitor can also be added to adjust their location based on the specific needs of the application.
This can provide better performance in power save mode, improved transient response, or both.
A more detailed discussion on the optimization for stability versus transient response can be found in
the Optimizing Transient Response of Internally Compensated DC-DC Converters Application Note and
Feedforward Capacitor to Improve Stability and Bandwidth of TPS621/821-Family Application Note.
9.2.2.3.2 Inductor Selection
The TPS629206-Q1 is designed for a nominal 2.2-µH inductor. Larger values can be used to achieve a lower
inductor current ripple but they can have a negative impact on efficiency and transient response. Smaller values
than 2.2 µH cause larger inductor current ripple, which cause larger negative inductor currents in forced PWM
mode and higher peak currents at full load. Therefore, they are not recommended at larger voltages across the
inductor as it is the case for high input voltages and low output voltages. With low output current in forced PWM
mode, this causes a larger negative inductor current peak that can exceed the negative current limit. At low or
no output current and small inductor values, the output voltage can therefore not be regulated any more. More
detailed information on further LC combinations can be found in the Optimizing the TPS62130/40/50/60 Output
Filter Application Note.
The inductor selection is affected by several effects like the following:
•
•
•
•
Inductor ripple current
Output ripple voltage
PWM-to-PFM transition point
Efficiency
In addition, the inductor selected has to be rated for appropriate saturation current and DC resistance (DCR).

IL(max) is the maximum inductor current.
ΔIL is the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current.
L(min) is the minimum effective inductor value.
Calculating the maximum inductor current using the actual operating conditions gives the minimum saturation
current of the inductor needed. It is recommended to add a margin of about 20%. A larger inductor value is
also useful to get lower ripple current, but increases the transient response time and size as well. The following
inductors have been used with the TPS629206-Q1 and are recommended for use:

9.2.2.3.3 Capacitor Selection
9.2.2.3.3.1 Output Capacitor
The recommended value for the output capacitor is 22 µF. The architecture of the TPS629206-Q1 allows the
use of tiny ceramic output capacitors with low equivalent series resistance (ESR). These capacitors provide
low output voltage ripple and are recommended. To keep its low resistance up to high frequencies and to get
narrow capacitance variation with temperature, it is recommended to use X7R or X5R dielectric. Using a higher
value has advantages like smaller voltage ripple and a tighter DC output accuracy in power save mode (see
Optimizing the TPS62130/40/50/60 Output Filter Application Note for more information).
In power save mode, the output voltage ripple depends on the following:
•
•
•
•
Output capacitance
ESR
ESL
Peak inductor current
Using ceramic capacitors provides small ESR, ESL, and low ripple.
The output capacitor needs to be as close as possible to the device, and it is recommended to have the VOS
signal and feedback resistors (if used) should be connected to the positive terminal of the output capacitor.
For large output voltages, the DC bias effect of ceramic capacitors is large and the effective capacitance has to
be observed.
9.2.2.3.3.2 Input Capacitor
For most applications, 4.7-µF nominal is sufficient and is recommended, though a larger value reduces input
current ripple further. The input capacitor buffers the input voltage for transient events and also decouples the
converter from the supply. A low-ESR multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) is recommended for best filtering and
should be placed between VIN and GND as close as possible to those pins.

9.3 System Examples
9.3.1 Powering Multiple Loads
In applications where the TPS629206-Q1 is used to power multiple load circuits, it is possible that the total
capacitance on the output is very large. In order to properly regulate the output voltage, there needs to be an
appropriate AC signal level on the VOS pin. Tantalum capacitors have a large enough ESR to keep output
voltage ripple sufficiently high on the VOS pin. With low-ESR ceramic capacitors, the output voltage ripple can
get very low, so it is not recommended to use a large capacitance directly on the output of the device. If there are
several load circuits with their associated input capacitor on a PCB, these loads are typically distributed across
the board. This adds enough trace resistance (Rtrace) to keep a large enough AC signal on the VOS pin for
proper regulation.
The minimum total trace resistance on the distributed load is 10 mΩ. The total capacitance n × CIN in Figure
9-82 was 32 × 47 μF of ceramic X7R capacitors.

9.3.2 Inverting Buck-Boost (IBB)
The need to generate negative voltage rails for electronic designs is a common challenge. The wide 3-V to 17-V
input voltage range of the TPS629206-Q1 makes it ideal for an inverting buck-boost (IBB) circuit, where the
output voltage is inverted or negative with respect to ground.
The circuit operation in the IBB topology differs from that in the traditional buck topology. Though the
components are connected the same as with a traditional buck converter, the output voltage terminals are
reversed. See Figure 9-83 and Figure 9-84.
The maximum input voltage that can be applied to an IBB converter is less than the maximum voltage that can
be applied to the TPS629206-Q1 in a typical buck configuration. This is because the ground pin of the IC is
connected to the (negative) output voltage. Therefore, the input voltage across the device is VIN to VOUT, and not
VIN to ground. Thus, the input voltage range of the TPS629206-Q1 in an IBB configuration becomes 3 V to 17 V
+ VOUT, where VOUT is a negative value.
The output voltage range is the same as when configured as a buck converter, but only negative. Thus, the
output voltage for a TPS629206-Q1 in an IBB configuration may be set between –0.4 V and –5.5 V.
The maximum output current for the TPS629206-Q1 in an IBB topology is normally lower than a traditional buck
configuration due to the average inductor current being higher in an IBB configuration. Traditionally, lower input
or (more negative) output voltages results in a lower maximum output current. However, using a larger inductor
value or the higher 2.5-MHz frequency setting can be used to recover some or all of this lost maximum current
capability.

SLVSFW4 – MARCH 2022
When implementing an IBB design, it is important to understand that the IC ground is tied to the negative voltage
rail, and in turn, the electrical characteristics of the TPS629206-Q1 device are referenced to this rail. During
power up, as there is no charge in the output capacitor, the IC GND pin (and VOUT) are effectively 0 V, thus
parameters such as the VIN UVLO and EN thresholds are the same as in a typical buck configuration. However,
after the output voltage is in regulation, due to the negative voltage on the IC GND pin, the device traditionally
continues to operate below what could appear to be the normal UVLO/EN falling thresholds relative to the
system ground. Thus, special care needs to be taken if the user is utilizing the dynamic mode change feature on
the MODE pin of the TPS629206-Q1 or driving the EN pin from an upstream microcontroller as the high and low
thresholds are relative to the negative rail and not the system ground.

Compensating the Current Mode Boost Control Loop Application Note and Using the TPS6215x in an Inverting
Buck-Boost Topology Application Note.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
A proper layout is critical for the operation of a switched mode power supply, even more so at high switching
frequencies. Therefore, the PCB layout of the TPS629206-Q1 demands careful attention to make sure proper
operation and to get the performance specified. A poor layout can lead to issues like the following:
•
•
•
•
Poor regulation (both line and load)
Stability and accuracy weaknesses
Increased EMI radiation
Noise sensitivity
See Figure 11-1 for the recommended layout of the TPS629206-Q1, which is designed for common external
ground connections. The input capacitor should be placed as close as possible between the VIN and GND pin of
the TPS629206-Q1.
Provide low inductive and resistive paths for loops with high di/dt. Therefore, paths conducting the switched load
current should be as short and wide as possible. Provide low capacitive paths (with respect to all other nodes)
for wires with high dv/dt. Therefore, the input and output capacitance should be placed as close as possible
to the IC pins and parallel wiring over long distances as well as narrow traces should be avoided. Loops that
conduct an alternating current should outline an area as small as possible, as this area is proportional to the
energy radiated.
Sensitive nodes like FB and VOS need to be connected with short wires and not nearby high dv/dt signals
(for example, SW). As they carry information about the output voltage, they should be connected as close as
possible to the actual output voltage (at the output capacitor). The FB resistors, R1 and R2, should be kept
close to the IC and connect directly to those pins and the system ground plane. The same applies for the
S-CONFIG/MODE and VSET programming resistors.
The package uses the pins for power dissipation. Thermal vias on the VIN, GND, and SW pins help to spread
the heat through the PCB.
In case any of the digital inputs (EN or S-CONF/MODE pins) need to be tied to the input supply voltage at VIN,
the connection must be made directly at the input capacitor as indicated in the schematics.
The recommended layout is implemented on the EVM and shown in the TPS629206-Q1EVM User's Guide.

11.2.1 Thermal Considerations
Implementation of integrated circuits in low-profile and fine-pitch surface-mount packages typically requires
special attention to power dissipation. Many system-dependent issues such as thermal coupling, airflow, added
heat sinks and convection surfaces, and the presence of other heat-generating components affect the powerdissipation limits of a given component.
The following are basic approaches for enhancing thermal performance:
•
•
Improving the power dissipation capability of the PCB design (for example, increasing copper thickness,
thermal vias, number of layers)
Introducing airflow in the system
For more details on how to use the thermal parameters, see the Thermal Characteristics of Linear and Logic
Packages Using JEDEC PCB Designs Application Note and Semiconductor and IC Package Thermal Metrics
Application Note.
The TPS629206-Q1 is designed for a maximum operating junction temperature (TJ) of 150°C. Therefore, the
maximum output power is limited by the power losses that can be dissipated over the actual thermal resistance,
given by the package and the surrounding PCB structures. If the thermal resistance of the package is given,
the size of the surrounding copper area and a proper thermal connection of the IC can reduce the thermal
resistance. To get an improved thermal behavior, it is recommended to use top layer metal to connect the device
with wide and thick metal lines. Internal ground layers can connect to vias directly under the IC for improved
thermal performance.
If short circuit or overload conditions are present, the device is protected by limiting internal power dissipation.
