Output current is 300 mA from a 3-V input. Only four external capacitors are needed to build a complete low-noise dc/dc converter. The push-pull operating mode of two single-ended charge pumps assures the low output voltage ripple as current is continuously transferred to the output. From a 3-V input, the TPS60110 can start into full load with loads as low as 16 Ω. The TPS60110 features either constant frequency mode to minimize noise and output voltage ripple or the power-saving pulse-skip mode to extend battery life at light loads. The TPS60110 switching frequency is 300 kHz. The logic shutdown function reduces the supply current to 1-µA (max) and disconnects the load from the input. Special current-control circuitry prevents excessive current from being drawn from the battery during start-up. This dc/dc converter requires no inductors and has low EMI.

operating principle The TPS60110 charge pump provides a regulated 5-V output from a 2.7-V to 5.4-V input. It delivers a maximum load current of 300 mA. Designed specifically for space critical battery powered applications, the complete charge pump circuit requires only four external capacitors. The circuit can be optimized for highest efficiency at light loads or lowest output noise. The TPS60110 consists of an oscillator, a 1.22-V bandgap reference, an internal resistive feedback circuit, an error amplifier, high current MOSFET switches, a shutdown/start-up circuit, and a control circuit (Figure 25) CHARGE PUMP 1 IN 0° T11 OSCILLATOR T12 180° C1+ C1F T13 SKIP C1– T14 OUT COM CLK PGND CONTROL CIRCUIT SYNC FB – CHARGE PUMP 2 IN + T21 VREF + – T22 C2+ ENABLE SHUTDOWN/ START-UP CONTROL – T23 + + – T24 C2F C2– OUT 0.8 × VIN PGND GND Figure 25. Functional Block Diagram TPS60110 The oscillator runs at a 50% duty cycle. The device consists of two single-ended charge pumps which operate with 180° phase shift. Each single ended charge pump transfers charge into its transfer capacitor (CxF) in one half of the period. During the other half of the period (transfer phase), CxF is placed in series with the input to transfer its charge to CO. While one single-ended charge pump is in the charge phase, the other one is in the transfer phase. This operation guarantees an almost constant output current which ensures a low output ripple. If the clock were to run continuously, this process would eventually generate an output voltage equal to two times the input voltage (hence the name doubler). In order to provide a regulated fixed output voltage of 5 V, the TPS60110 uses either pulse-skip mode or constant-frequency mode. Pulse-skip mode and constant-frequency mode are externally selected via the SKIP input pin. 10 POST OFFICE BOX 655303 • DALLAS, TEXAS 75265 TPS60110 REGULATED 5-V 300-mA LOW-NOISE CHARGE PUMP DC/DC CONVERTER SLVS215A – JUNE 1999 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 1999 detailed description (continued) start-up procedure During start-up, i.e. when ENABLE is set from logic low to logic high, the switches T12 and T14 (charge pump 1), and the switches T22 and T24 (charge pump 2) are conducting to charge up the output capacitor until the output voltage VO reaches 0.8×VIN. When the start-up comparator detects this limit, the IC begins to operate in the mode selected with SKIP and COM. This start-up charging of the output capacitor guarantees a short start-up time and eliminates the need for a Schottky diode between IN and OUT. pulse-skip mode In pulse-skip mode (SKIP = high), the error amplifier disables switching of the power stages when it detects an output higher than 5 V. The oscillator halts. The IC then skips switching cycles until the output voltage drops below 5 V. Then the error amplifier reactivates the oscillator and switching of the power stages starts again. The pulse-skip regulation mode minimizes operating current because it does not switch continuously and deactivates all functions except bandgap reference and error amplifier when the output is higher than 5 V. When switching is disabled from the error amplifier, the load is also isolated from the input. SKIP is a logic input and should not remain floating. The typical operating circuit of the TPS60110 in pulse skip mode is shown in Figure 1. constant-frequency mode When SKIP is low, the charge pump runs continuously at the frequency fOSC. The control circuit, fed from the error amplifier, controls the charge on C1F and C2F by driving the gates of the FETs T12/T13 and T22/T23, respectively. When the output voltage falls, the gate drive increases, resulting in a larger voltage across C1F and C2F. This regulation scheme minimizes output ripple. Since the device switches continuously, the output noise contains well-defined frequency components, and the circuit requires smaller external capacitors for a given output ripple. However, constant-frequency mode, due to higher operating current, is less efficient at light loads than pulse-skip mode.

During the other half of the period (transfer phase), CxF is placed in series with the input to transfer its charge to CO.

The two single-ended charge pumps operate in parallel without phase shift. They transfer charge into the transfer capacitor (CF) in one half of the period. During the other half of the period (transfer phase), CF is placed in series with the input to transfer its charge to CO.

This disables all switches, the oscillator, and control logic. The device typically draws 0.05-µA (1-µA max) of supply current in this mode. Leakage current drawn from the output is as low as 1 µA max. The device exits shutdown once ENABLE is set high level. The typical no-load shutdown exit time is 20 µs. When the device is in shutdown, the load is isolated from the input and the output is high impedance. external clock signal If the device operates at a user defined frequency, an external clock signal can be used. Therefore, SYNC needs to be connected to IN and the external oscillator signal can drive CLK. The maximum external frequency is limited to 800 kHz. The switching frequency of the converter is half of the external oscillator frequency. It is recommended to operate the charge pump in constant-frequency mode if an external clock signal is used so that the output noise contains only well-defined frequency components.

Their values are closely linked to the output current capacity, output noise requirements, and mode of operation. Generally, the transfer capacitors (CxF) will be the smallest. The input capacitor improves system efficiency by reducing the input impedance and stabilizes the input current. CIN is recommended to be about two to four times as large as CxF. The output capacitor (CO) can be selected from 8-times to 50-times larger than CxF, depending on the mode of operation and ripple tolerance†. Tables 3 and 4 show capacitor values recommended for low quiescent-current operation (pulse-skip mode) and for low output voltage ripple operation (constant-frequency mode). A recommendation is given for smallest size. Table 3.

A PCB layout proposal for a two-layer board is given in Figure 29. Care has been taken to connect both single-ended charge pumps symmetrically to the load to achive optimized output voltage ripple performance. The proposed layout also provides improved thermal performance as the exposed leadframe is soldered to the PCB. The bottom layer of the PCB is a ground plain only. All ground areas on the PCB should be connected. Connect ground areas on top layer to the bottom layer via through hole connections.

The circuit of Figure 30 can deliver 600 mA at an output voltage of 5 V. It uses two TPS60110 devices in parallel. The devices can share the output capacitors, but each one requires its own transfer capacitors and input capacitor. For best performance, the paralleled devices should operate in the same mode (pulse-skip or constant frequency).

Paralleling of Two TPS60110 TPS60110 with LC output filter for ultra low ripple For applications where extremely low output ripple is required, a small LC filter is recommended. This is shown in Figure 31. The addition of a small inductor and filter capacitor will reduce the output ripple well below what could be achieved with capacitors alone. The corner frequency of 500 kHz was chosen above the 300 kHz switching frequency to avoid loop stability issues in case the feedback is taken from the output of the LC filter. Leaving the feedback (FB) connection point before the LC filter, the filter capacitance value can be increased to achieve even higher ripple attenuation without affecting stability margin. 0.1 µH SKIP COM CLK INPUT 2.7 V to 5.4 V CIN 15 µF IN IN + C1F 2.2 µF CO = 33 µF OUTPUT 5 V 300 mA 1 µF OUT OUT TPS60110 FB C1+ C2+ C1– C2– ENABLE OFF/ON + + C2F 2.2 µF SYNC PGND GND Figure 31.
