DESCRIPTION
The TPS54326 is an adaptive on-time D-CAP2™
mode synchronous buck converter. The TPS54326
enables system designers to complete the suite of
various end equipment’s power bus regulators with a
cost effective, low component count, low standby
current solution. The main control loop for the
TPS54326 uses the D-CAP2™ mode control which
provides a fast transient response with no external
components. The adoptive on-time control supports
seamless operation between PWM mode at heavy
load condition and reduced frequency operation at
light load for high efficiency.
The TPS54326 also has a proprietary circuit that
enables the device to adapt 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
VCC input , and from 2-V to 18-V VIN input power
supply voltage. The output voltage can be
programmed between 0.76 V and 5.5 V. The device
also features an adjustable slow start time and a
power good function. The TPS54326 is available in
the 14 pin HTSSOP package, and designed to
operate from –40°C to 85°C.

SLVSA13A – OCTOBER 2009 – REVISED OCTOBER 2009
www.ti.com
OVERVIEW
The TPS54326 is a 3-A synchronous step-down (buck) converter with two integrated N-channel MOSFETs. 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.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
PWM Operation
The main control loop of the TPS54326 is an adaptive on-time pulse width modulation (PWM) controller that
supports a proprietary D-CAP2™ mode control. D-CAP2™ mode control combines constant 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 timer 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 the 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
TPS54326 uses an adaptive on-time control scheme and does not have a dedicated on board oscillator. The
TPS54326 runs with a pseudo-constant frequency of 700 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. The actual frequency may vary from 700 kHz depending on the off time, which is ended when the
fed back portion of the output voltage falls to the VFBthreshold voltage.
Light Load Mode Control
The TPS54326 is designed with Auto-Skip 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 point that 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 converter run into discontinuous conduction mode. The on-time is kept almost the
same as is 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 I
OUT(LL) current can be calculated in Equation 1.

Soft Start and Pre-Biased Soft Start
The soft start function is adjustable. When the EN pin becomes high, 2-μA current begins charging the capacitor
which is connected from the SS pin to GND. Smooth control of the output voltage is maintained during start up.
The equation for the slow start time is shown in Equation 2. VFB voltage is 0.765 V and SS pin source current is
2 μA.

(2)
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-by-cycle 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.

SLVSA13A – OCTOBER 2009 – REVISED OCTOBER 2009
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 is 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 after a
10 μs internal delay.
Output Discharge Control
TPS54326 discharges the output when EN is low, or the controller is turned off by the protection functions (OVP,
UVP, UVLO and thermal shutdown). The output is discharged by an internal 50-Ω MOSFET which is connected
from VO to PGND. The internal low-side MOSFET is not turned on during the output discharge operation to
avoid the possibility of causing negative voltage at the output.
Current Protection
Output current is limited by cycle-by-cycle overcurrent limiting control. The inductor current is monitored during
the OFF state and the controller keeps the OFF state when the inductor current is larger than the over current
trip level. To provide accuracy and a cost effective solution, the device supports temperature compensated
internal MOSFET RDS(on) sensing.
The inductor current is monitored by the voltage between PGND pin and SW1/SW2 pin. In an overcurrent
condition, the current to the load exceeds the current to the output capacitor; thus, the output voltage tends to fall
off. Eventually the output voltage will fall below the undervoltage protection threshold and the device will
shutdown.
Over/Undervoltage Protection
The TPS54326 detects over and undervoltage conditions by monitoring the feedback voltage (VFB). This
function is enabled after approximately 1.7 times the soft-start time.When the feedback voltage becomes higher
than 120% of the target voltage, the OVP comparator output goes high and the circuit latches the high-side
MOSFET driver turns off and the low-side MOSFET turns on. When the feedback voltage becomes lower than
70% of the target voltage, the UVP comparator output goes high and an internal UVP delay counter begins. After
250 μs, the device latches off both internal top and bottom MOSFET.
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 TPS54326 is shut off. This is protection is non-latching.
Thermal Shutdown
Thermal protection is self-activating. If the junction temperature exceeds the threshold value (typically 150°C),
the TPS54326 shuts off. This protection is non-latching.

DESIGN GUIDE
Step By Step Design Procedure
This example details the design of a switching regulator design using ceramic output capacitors.
This design is available as the HPA540 evaluation module (EVM). A few parameters must be known in order to
start the design process. These parameters are typically determined on the system level. For this example,
start with the following known parameters:
• Input voltage range = 4.5 - 18 V
• Output voltage = 1.05 V
• Output current = 3 A
• Output voltage ripple = 3% of output voltage, 31.5 mV
Figure 13 shows the schematic diagram for this design example.
Figure 13. Schematic
Output Inductor Selection
The inductance value is selected to provide approximately 30% peak-to-peak ripple current at maximum load.
Larger ripple current increases output ripple voltage, improves S/N ratio and contributes to stable operation.
Smaller ripple currents result in lower output voltage ripple. When using low ESR output capacitors output ripple
voltage is usually low, so larger ripple currents are acceptable. The coefficient Kind represents the percentage of
ripple current. The value of Kind must not be greater than 0.4. Use 0.3 when using low ESR output capacitors.
Equation 3 can be used to calculate L1. Use 700 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, use KIND = 0.3 and the inductor value is calculated to be 1.56 μH. For this design, a
nearest standard value was chosen: 1.5 μH. For 1.5 μH, the calculated peak current is 3.47 A and the calculated
RMS current is 3.012 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.
Output Capacitor Selection
The capacitor value and ESR determines the amount of output voltage ripple. Recommended to use ceramic
output capacitor. Using Equation 7 to Equation 9, an initial estimate for the capacitor value, ESR, and RMS
current can be calculated. If the load transients are significant consider using the load step, instead of ripple
current to calculate the maximum ESR.

For this design, the minimum required capacitance is 8.45 µF and maximum ESR is 33 mohm. Two TDK
C3216JB0J226M 22 µF output capacitors are used. The maximum ESR is 12 mohm each. The calaculated RMS
current is .271 A and each output capacitor is rated for 2 A.
Input Capacitor Selection
The device 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. The capacitor voltage rating needs
to be greater than the maximum input voltage. In case of separate VCC and VIN, then a ceramic capacitor over 10
μF is recommended for the VIN and also placing ceramic capacitor over 0.1 μF for the VCC is recommended.
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.
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 10 and Equation 11 to calculate VOUT.
To improve efficiency at light loads consider using larger value resistors, too high of resistance will be more
susceptible to noise and voltage errors from the VFB input current will be more noticeable.

THERMAL INFORMATION
This PowerPAD™ package incorporates an exposed thermal pad that is designed to be connected to an external
heatsink. The thermal pad must be soldered directly to the printed board (PCB). After soldering, the PCB can be
used as a heatsink. 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 heatsink structure designed into the PCB. This design optimizes the heat transfer from the integrated
circuit (IC).
For additional information on the PowerPAD™ package and how to use the advantage of its heat dissipating
abilities, refer to Technical Breif, PowerPAD™ Thermally Enhanced Package, Texas Instruments Literature No.
SLMA002 and Application Brief, PowerPAD™ Made Easy, Texas Instruments Literature No. SLMA004.

LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
1. Keep the input switching current loop as small as possible.
2. 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.
3. Keep analog and non-switching components away from switching components.
4. Make a single point connection from the signal ground to power ground.
5. Do not allow switching current to flow under the device.
6. Keep the pattern lines for VIN and PGND broad.
7. Exposed pad of device must be connected to PGND with solder.
8. VREG5 capacitor should be placed near the device, and connected PGND.
9. Output capacitor should be connected to a broad pattern of the PGND.
10. Voltage feedback loop should be as short as possible, and preferably with ground shield.
11. Lower resistor of the voltage divider which is connected to the VFB pin should be tied to SGND.
12. Providing sufficient via is preferable for VIN, SW and PGND connection.
13. PCB pattern for VIN, SW, and PGND should be as broad as possible.
14. If VIN and VCC is shorted, VIN and VCC patterns need to be connected with broad pattern lines.
15. VIN Capacitor should be placed as near as possible to the device.
