Package
TSM108 can easily be configured for very wide
voltage and current needs.
It has been realized in rugged BCD technology
and includes a PWM generator, Voltage and Current control loops, a precise Voltage Reference,
and a Gate Driver. The device can sustain 60V on
Vcc, and therefore meet the standard Load Dump
requirements of the 12V cars battery.
On boards there are other security functions which
lock the external power in OFF state: OVLO (Over
Voltage Lockout) and UVLO (Under Voltage Lockout). The mosfet gate is also protected from over
voltage drive thanks to a 12V clamping protection
circuit.
Moreover, a standby feature allows very low quiescent current when activated, but keeping safe
the external power element when Off.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION AND APPLICATION HINTS
Description of a DC/DC step down battery
charger
1. Voltage and Current Controller
The device has been designed to drive an external
P-Channel MOSFET in PWM mode and in Step
Down topology. Its two integrated operational amplifiers ensure accurate Voltage and Current Regulation loops.
The Voltage Control dedicated operational amplifier acts as an error amplifier and compares a part
of the output voltage (external voltage divider) to
an integrated highly precise voltage reference
(Vref).
The Current Control dedicated operational amplifier acts as an error amplifier and compares the
drop voltage through the sense resistor to an integrated low value voltage reference (Vs).
These two amplified errors are ORed through diodes, and the resulting signal (“max of”) is a reference for the PWM generator to set the switching
duty cycle of the P-Channel MOSFET transistor.
The PWM generator comprises an oscillator (saw
tooth) and a comparator which gives a variable
duty cycle from 0 to 95%. This PWM signal is the
direct command of the output totem pole stage to
drive the Gate of the P-Channel MOSFET.
Thanks to this architecture, the TSM108 is ideal to
be used from a DC power supply to control the
charging Voltage and Current of a battery in applications such as accessories for cellular phones
chargers and post-regulation in power supplies.
2. Voltage Control
The Voltage Control loop can be set by an external voltage divider connected between the output
positive line and the Ground reference. The middle point has to be connected to the Vctrl pin of
TSM108, and, if R1 is the upper resistor, and R2,
the lower resistor of the voltage divider, the values
of R1 and R2 are:
❑ eq1: Vref = Vout x R2 / (R1 + R2)
In Constant Voltage Control mode, the output voltage is fixed by to the R1/R2 resistor.
The total value of R1 + R2 voltage divider will determine the necessary bleeding current to keep
the Voltage Control loop effective, even under “no
load” conditions.
The current compensation loop is directly accessible from the pins Vcomp and Vref The compensation network is highly dependant of the operating
conditions (switching frequency, external components R, L, C, MOSFET, output capacitor, etc...).
3. Current Control
The Current control loop can be set by the sense
resistor that has to be placed in series on the output positive line. The output side of the Sense resistor has to be to Ictrl pin,and the common point
between Rsense and the choke has to be connected to the Vs pin. If Ilim is the value of the
charging current limit The value of Rsense should
verify:
❑ eq2: Vs = Rsense x Ilim
In Constant Current Control mode, the output current is fixed by to the Rsense resistor (under output short circuit conditions, please refer to this corresponding section).
The wattage calibration (W) of the sense resistor
should be chosen according to:
❑ eq2a: W > Rsense x Ilim2
The current compensation loop is directly accessible from Icomp and Ictrl pin.
The compensation network is highly dependant on
the operating conditions.
4. PWM frequency
The internal oscillator frequency is a saw tooth
waveform that can be adjusted. In accessories like
battery chargers, it is suggested to set the switching frequency at a typical 100kHz in order to obtain a good compromise between the ripple current and the choke size. An external capacitor
connected between Osc pin and ground set the
switching frequency
The maximum duty cycle of the PWM function is
limited to 95% in order to ensure safe driving of
the MOSFET.
6/13
TSM108
5. Gate Drive
The Gate Drive stage is directly commanded from
the PWM output signal. The Gate Drive stage is a
totem pole Mosfet stage which bears different On
resistances in order to ensure a slower turn ON
than turn OFF of the P-Channel MOSFET. The
values of the output Gate Drive currents are given
by Isink (switch ON) and Isource (switch OFF).
The Gate Drive stage bears an integrated voltage
clamp which will prevent the P-Channel MOSFET
gate to be driven with voltages higher than 15V
(acting like a zener diode between Vcc and GD
(Gate Drive) pin.
6. Under Voltage Lock-Out, Over Voltage
Lock-Out
The UVLO and OVLO security functions aim at the
global application security.
When the Power supply decreases, there is the inherent risk to drive the P-Channel MOSFET with
insufficient Gate voltage, and therefore to lead the
MOSFET to linear operation, and to its destruction.
The UVLO is an input power supply voltage detection which imposes a complete switch OFF of the
P-Channel MOSFET as soon as the Power Supply decreases below UV. To avoid unwanted oscillation of the MOSFET, a fixed hysteresis margin is
integrated (UVhyst).
UVLO is internally programmed to ensure 8V min
and 9V max, but thresholds can be adjusted by
adding an external voltage divider to modify the
value. The resistors typical values are given (Ruvh, Ruvl).
The OVLO is fixing the supply voltage at which the
device (and the external power section) is
switched OFF.
OVLO is internally programmed to ensure 32V
min. and 33V max., but it can be adjusted with an
external voltage divider.
Examples:
Let's suppose that the internally set value of the
UVLO and / or OVLO level should be modified in a
specific application, or under specific requirements.
6.1. UVLO decrease:
where Ruvh//Ruvh1 means that Ruvh1 is in parallel to Ruvh
Solving i. we obtain:
❑ Ruvh1 = Ruvl x Ruvh (UV1 - Vref) / (Vref x
Ruvh - Ruvl (UV1 - Vref))
As an example, if UV1 needs to be set to 6V,
Ruvh1 = 256kΩ
6.2. UVLO increase:
If the UVLO level needs to be increased (UV2), an
additional resistor (Ruvl2) must be connected between UV and Gnd following the equation.
❑ UV = Vref (Ruvh/Ruvl +1)
❑ UV1 = Vref (Ruvh/(Ruvl//Ruvl2) +1)
(ii)
where Ruvl//Ruvl2 means that Ruvl2 is in parallel
to Ruvl
Solving ii. we obtain:
❑ Ruvl2 = Vref x Ruvh Ruvl / (UV2 x Ruvl Vref x (Ruvh + Ruvl))
As an example, if UV2 needs to be set to 12V,
Ruvl2 = 132kΩ
6.3. OVLO decrease:
If the OVLO level needs to be lowered (OV1), an
additional resistor (Rovh1) must be connected between OV and Vcc following the equation:
❑ OV = Vref (Rovh/Rovl +1)
❑ OV1 = Vref ((Rovh//Rovh1)/Rovl +1)
(iii)
where Rovh//Rovh1 means that Rovh1 is in parallel to Rovh
Solving iii. we obtain:
❑ Rovh1 = Rovl x Rovh (OV1 - Vref) / (Vref x
Rovh - Rovl (OV1 - Vref))
As an example, if OV1 needs to be set to 25V,
Rovh1 = 867kΩ
6.4. OVLO increase:
If the OVLO level needs to be increased (OV2), an
additional resistor (Rovl2) must be connected between OV and Gnd following the equation.
❑ OV = Vref (Rovh/Rovl +1)
❑ OV2 = Vref (Rovh/(Rovl//Rovl2) +1)
(iv)
where Rovl//Rovl2 means that Rovl2 is in parallel
to Rovl
Solving iv. we obtain:
❑ Rovl2 = Vref x Rovh Rovl / (OV2 x Rovl Vref x (Rovh + Rovl))
As an example, if OV2 needs to be set to 40V,
Rovl2 = 87kΩ
If the UVLO level needs to be lowered (UV1), an
additional resistor (Ruvh1) must be connected between UV and Vcc following the equation:
❑ UV = Vref (Ruvh/Ruvl +1)
❑ UV1 = Vref ((Ruvh//Ruvh1)/Ruvl +1)

7. Standby Mode
In order to reduce to a minimum the current consumption of the TSM108 when in inactive phase,
the Standby mode (!Stby pin of TSM108) imposes
a complete OFF state of the P-Channel MOSFET,
as well as a complete shut off of the main functions of the TSM108 (operational amplifier, PWM
generator and oscillator, UVLO and OVLO) and
therefore reduces the consuption of the device.
The !STBY command is TTL compatible.
8.Power Transistor: P-channel MOSFET or
PNP Transistor?
The TSM108 can drive, with minor external components change, either a P-channel MOSFET, or
a PNP transistor. The user can choose the type of
external power element, nevertheless, here follows a few considerations which will help to take
this decision
The following figures shows two different schematics where both driving abilities of TSM108 are
shown. The third schematic shows how to improve
the switch off commutation when using a bipolar
PNP transistor.

The most immediate way to choose between a
P-channel MOSFET or a PNP transistor is to consider the ratio between the output power of the application and the expected components price: the
lower the power, the more suitable the PNP transistor is; the higher the power, the more suitable
the P-channel MOSFET is. As an example, for a
DC/DC adaptor built for 12V/6V, the recommended limit to choose between P-channel Mosfet and
PNP transistor is around 200mA.
Below 200mA, the price/performance ratio of the
PNP transistor is very attractive, whereas above
200mA, the P-channel Mosfet takes the advantage.
9. Calculation of the Passive Elements
Let's consider the following characteristics for a
Cigarette Lighter Cellular Phone Battery Charger:
Vin = 12V - input voltage of the converter
Vout = 6V - output voltage of the converter
F = 100kHz - switching frequency of the converter
adjustable with an external capacitor
Iout = 625mA - output current limitation
8/13
TSM108
9.1. Inductor
The minimum inductor value to choose should apply to
Lmin = (1 - D) R / 2F
where R = Vout / Iout = 9.6W
and where D = Vout / Vin = 0.5
Therefore, Lmin = 24µH.
The frequency may vary depending on the temperature, due to the fact that the frequency is fixed
by an external capacitor. Therefore, we must calculate the inductor value considering the worst
case condition in order to avoid the saturation of
the inductor, which is when the battery voltage is
at it's highest, and the switching frequency at it's
lowest. Thanks to the OVLO onboard function, the
operation of the DC/DC converter will be stopped
as soon as the voltage exceeds the OVLO level.
Let's suppose the OVLO pin has been left open,
therefore, the maximum input voltage of the DC/
DC converter will be Vin max. = 32V. Frequency
min stands in the range of 75kHz
In this case, D = 6 / 32 = 0.1875, therefore Lmin =
52µH.
If we allow a 25% security margin
Lmin = 68µH
Pswitch = Prise + Pfall + Pon
where Prise + Pfall represent the switching losses
and where Pon represents the conduction losses.
Prise + Pfall = Iout x Vin x (Trise + Tfall) x F / 2
Pon = Ron x Iout² x d
where Trise is the switching on time, and Tfall is
the switching off time, and where d is the duty cycle of the switching profile, which can be approximated to 1 under full load conditions.
With the two last equations, we can see easily that
what we may gain by choosing a performing low
Rdson Pchannel MOSFET (for example) may be
jeopardised by the long on and off switching times
required when using a large input gate capacitance.
10. Electromagnetic Compatibility
The small schematic hereafter shows how to reduce the EMC noise when used in an EMC sensitive environment:
EMC Improvement
MOSFET P
9.2. Capacitor
The capacitor choice will depend mainly on the accepted voltage ripple on the output
Ripple = DVout / Vout = (1-D) / 8LCF²
Therefore, C = (1-D) / 8LRippleF². If C = 22µF,
then Ripple = 0.4% which should be far acceptable.
Here again, the worst conditions for the ripple are
set when the input voltage is at the highest (32V)
and the frequency at it's lowest (75kHz).
with C = 22µF, Ripple = 1.2%
9.3. Ratings for the Inductor, Capacitor,
Transistor and Diode
The inductor wire must be rated at the rms current,
and the core should not saturate for peak inductor
current. The capacitor must be selected to limit the
output ripple to the design specifications, to withstand peak output voltage, and to carry the required rms current.
The transistor and the diode should be rated for
the maximum input voltage (up to 60V). The recirculation diode has to be a Schottky type for efficiency maximization or ultrafast recovery.
A compromise between the switching and conduction losses of the external power element has to
be found.
Losses in the switch are:

TSM108
The RC components should realise a time constant corresponding to one tenth of the switching
time constant of the TSM108 (i.e. in our example,
the oscillator frequency is set to 10µs corresponding to 100kHz, therefore, the RC couple should realise a time constant close to 1µs).
Choosing the components must privilege a rather
small resistivity (between 10 to 100W). A guess
couple of values for RC in our example would be:
R= 22W, C= 47nF
11. Efficiency Calculations (rough estimation)
The following gives a rough estimation of the efficiency of a car phone charger, knowing that the
exact calculations depend on a lot of parameters,
as well as on a wide choice of external components.
Let’s consider the following characteristics of a
classical car phone charger application:
❑ Vin = Vcc = 12V, Iout = 625mA, Vout = 6V
9/13
TSM108
❑ Mosfet: Pchannel Mosfet: Rdson = 100mΩ,
Ciss = 1nF.
❑ Driver: TSM108
❑ PWM frequency: 100kHz
❑ Free wheel diode: Vf = 0.7V
❑ Shunt: Rsense = 330mΩ
The efficiency (η) of a regulator is defined as the
ratio of the charging power (Pout) to the total power from the supply (Pin).
❑ Eq3: η = Pout/Pin
The output power is:
Pout=Iout x Vout where Iout is the charging current (Vsense/Rsense = 625mA at full load) and
Vout is the regulated voltage (Vref(1+R1/R2) =
6V).
Pout = 3.75W
The input power can be found by adding the output power (Pout) to the total power loss in the circuit (Plosses) i.e.
❑ Pin = Pout + Plosses
The power is lost partly on the chip and partly on
the external components which are mainly the diode, the switch and the shunt. Plosses = Pchip +
Pswitch + Pdiode + Pshunt.
In Plosses, we neglect the losses in the inductor
(because the current through the inductor is
smoothened making the serial resistor of the inductor very low), and the losses in the Gate
(charge and discharge).
a. The power lost in the chip is Pchip = Vcc x Icc.
(Vcc = 12V, Icc = 6mA) Pchip = 72mΩ
b. The power lost in the switch depends on the ON
resistance of the switch and the current passing
through it. Also there is power loss in the switch
during switching time (commutation losses) and
that depends on the switching frequency and the
rise and fall time of the switching signal.
Rise time (Pchannel goes off) depends on the output source current of the TSM108 and the input
gate capacitance of the Mosfet.
Trise = Ciss x Vgate / Isource
Fall time (Pchannel goes on) depends on the output sink current of the TSM108 and the input gate
capacitance of the Mosfet .
Tfall = Ciss x Vgate / Isink
Trise = 150ns and Tfall = 300ns (Vgate is approx
12V).
❑ Pswitch = Prise + Pfall + Pon
where:
Prise = Iout x (Vcc+Vf) x Trise x PWMfreq / 2
Prise = 625mA x 12.7 x 150ns x 100kHz / 2.
Prise = 59.5mW
where:
Pfall = Iout x (Vcc+Vf) x Tfall x PWMfreq / 2
Pfall = 625mA x 12.7 x 300ns x 100kHz / 2.
Pfall = 119.1mW
where:
Pon = Rdson x Iout² x D (where D is the duty cycle
- at full charge, D can be approximated to 1)
Pon = 100mΩ x 625mA². Pon = 39.1mW
❑ Pswitch = 217.7mW
c. The power lost in the fly back diode is Pdiode =
Vf x Iout(1-D) where D = Vout/Vcc = 6/12. D = 0.5
❑ Pdiode=219mW
d. the power lost in the sense resistor (shunt resistor) is Pshunt = Rsense x Iout²
❑ Pshunt = 129mW
Therefore,
Plosses = Pchip+Pswitch+Pdiode+Pshunt
= 72mW + 217.7mW + 219mW + 129mW
❑ Plosses = 638mW
The yield (efficiency) is
❑ Pout / Pin = 3.75 / (3.75 + 0.638) = 85.5%
η = 85.5%
The following table gives a tentative yield improvement view following the choice of some external
components. Be aware that some of the following
choices have non negligeable cost effects on the
total application.
