Operation Description
Internal Regulator
The TMI3252SH is a constant on-time (COT) step down DC/DC converter that provides excellent
transient response with no extra external compensation components. This device contains low resistance,
high voltage high side and low side power MOSFETs, and operates at 1MHz operating frequency to
ensure a compact, high efficiency design with excellent AC and DC performance.
Error Amplifier
TMI3252SH adopts operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) as error amplifier. The error amplifier
compares the FB pin voltage with the internal FB reference (VREF) and outputs a current proportional to
the difference between the two. This output current is then used to charge or discharge the internal
compensation network to form the VCOMP voltage, which is used to compare with the low side power
MOSFET current sensing signal and trigger on time pulse. The optimized internal compensation network
minimizes the external component counts and simplifies the control loop design.

TMI3252SH
Internal Soft-Start
The soft-start is implemented to prevent the converter output voltage from overshooting during startup.
When the chip starts, the internal circuitry generates a soft-start voltage (SS) ramping up from 0V to 0.6V.
When it is lower than the internal FB reference (VREF), SS overrides REF so the error amplifier uses SS
as the reference. When SS is higher than VREF, VREF regains control. The SS time is internally fixed to
0.8ms typically.
Over-Current-Protection and Short Circuits Protection
The TMI3252SH has cycle-by-cycle valley current limit function. When the inductor current valley value
is larger than the valley current limit during low side MOSFET on state, the device enters into valley over
current protection mode and low side MOSFET keeps on state until inductor current drops down to the
value equal or lower than the valley current limit, and then on time pulse could be generated and high
side MOSFET could turn on again.
If the output is short to GND and the output voltage drop until feedback voltage VFB is below the output
under-voltage VUV threshold which is typically 42% of VREF, TMI3252SH enters into hiccup mode to
periodically disable and restart switching operation. The hiccup mode helps to reduce power dissipation
and thermal rise during output short condition. The period of TMI3252SH hiccup mode is typically 5ms.
Startup and Shutdown
If both VIN and EN are higher than their appropriate thresholds, the chip starts switching operation. The
reference block starts first, generating stable reference voltage and currents, and then the internal
regulator is enabled. The regulator provides stable supply for the remaining circuitries. Three events can
shut down the chip: EN low, VIN low and thermal shutdown. In the shutdown procedure, the signaling
path is first blocked to avoid any fault triggering. The VCOMP voltage and the internal supply rail are then
pulled down. The floating driver is not subject to this shutdown command.
Application Information
Setting the Output Voltage
The external resistor divider is used to set the output voltage (see Typical Application on page 1). Choose
R1 to be around 39kΩ for optimal transient response. R2 is then given by:

Selecting the Inductor
A 1.0μH to 2.2μH inductor with a DC current rating of at least 25% percent higher than the maximum load
current is recommended for most applications. For highest efficiency, the inductor DC resistance should
be as small as possible. For most designs, the inductance value can be derived from the following
equation.
V (Vin − Vout )
L = out
Vin I L fOSC
Where ΔIL is the inductor ripple current. Choose inductor ripple current to be approximately 30% if the
maximum load current, 2A. The maximum inductor peak current is:
I L
2
Under light load conditions below 100mA, larger inductance is recommended for improved efficiency.
I L ( MAX ) = I LOAD +
Selecting the Output Capacitor
The output capacitor (Co1) is required to maintain the DC output voltage. Ceramic, tantalum, or low ESR
electrolytic capacitors are recommended. Low ESR capacitors are preferred to keep the output voltage
ripple low. The output voltage ripple can be estimated by:
VOUT =
VOUT VOUT
1
1 −
RESR +
f S L VIN
8 f S C2
Where L is the inductor value and RESR is the equivalent series resistance (ESR) value of the output
capacitor. In the case of ceramic capacitors, the impedance at the switching frequency is dominated by
the capacitance. The output voltage ripple is mainly caused by the capacitance. For simplification, the
output voltage ripple can be estimated by:
VOUT =
V
1 − OUT
8 f S L C2 VIN
VOUT
2
In the case of tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, the ESR dominates the impedance at the switching
frequency. For simplification, the output ripple can be approximated to:
VOUT =
VOUT VOUT
1 −
RESR
f S L VIN
The characteristics of the output capacitor also affect the stability of the regulation system. The
TMI3252SH can be optimized for a wide range of capacitance and ESR values.

PCB Layout Guide
PCB layout is very important to achieve stable operation. It is highly recommended to duplicate EVB
layout for optimum performance. If change is necessary, please follow these guidelines and take Figure
3 for reference.
1) Keep the path of switching current short and minimize the loop area formed by Input capacitor, IN pin
and GND.
2) Bypass ceramic capacitors are suggested to be put close to the IN Pin.
3) Ensure all feedback connections are short and direct. Place the feedback resistors as close to the chip
as possible.
4) VOUT, LX away from sensitive analog areas such as FB.
5) Connect IN, LX, and especially GND respectively to a large copper area to cool the chip to improve
thermal performance and long-term reliability.
