This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, θJA, applies to devices soldered directly to a 100 mm x 100 mm double-sided PCB with
1 oz. copper and natural convection cooling. Additional airflow reduces θJA.
The junction-to-top characterization parameter, ψJT, estimates the junction temperature, TJ, of a device in a real system, using a
procedure described in JESD51-2A (sections 6 and 7). TJ = ψJT * Pdis + TT; where Pdis is the power dissipated in the device and TT is
the temperature of the top of the device.
The junction-to-board characterization parameter, ψJB, estimates the junction temperature, TJ, of a device in a real system, using a
procedure described in JESD51-2A (sections 6 and 7). TJ = ψJB * Pdis + TB; where Pdis is the power dissipated in the device and TB is
the temperature of the board 1mm from the device.

The minimum VIN voltage is 2.95V or (VOUT + 1.1V) , whichever is greater. A 5V input bus is recommended for output voltages greater
than 2V.
The stated limit of the set-point voltage tolerance includes the tolerance of both the internal voltage reference and the internal
adjustment resistor. The overall output voltage tolerance will be affected by the tolerance of the external RSET resistor.
This control pin has an internal pullup. Do not place an external pull-up resistor on this pin. If this pin is left open circuit, the device
operates when input power is applied. A small low-leakage MOSFET is recommended for control. See the application section for further
guidance.
The maximum synchronization clock pulse width is dependant on VIN, VOUT, and the synchronization frequency. See the
Synchronization (CLK) section for more information.

A minimum of 47µF of ceramic capacitance is required across the input for proper operation. Locate the capacitor close to the device.
An additional 220µF of bulk capacitance is recommended. See Table 5 for more details.
The amount of required output capacitance varies depending on the output voltage (see Table 3 ). The amount of required capacitance
must include at least 47µF of ceramic capacitance. Locate the capacitance close to the device. Adding additional capacitance close to
the load improves the response of the regulator to load transients. See Table 3 and Table 5 for more details.
When using both ceramic and non-ceramic output capacitance, the combined maximum must not exceed 2200µF.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
ADJUSTING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE
The VADJ control sets the output voltage of the TPS84410. The output voltage adjustment range is from 0.8V to
3.6V. The adjustment method requires the addition of RSET, which sets the output voltage, the connection of
SENSE+ to VOUT, and in some cases RRT which sets the switching frequency. The RSET resistor must be
connected directly between the VADJ (pin 35) and AGND (pin 33 & 34). The SENSE+ pin (pin 36) must be
connected to VOUT either at the load for improved regulation or at VOUT of the module. The RRT resistor must
be connected directly between the RT/CLK (pin 4) and AGND (pins 33 & 34).
Table 1 gives the standard external RSET resistor for a number of common bus voltages, along with the
recommended RRT resistor for that output voltage.

CAPACITOR RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE TPS84410 POWER SUPPLY
Capacitor Technologies
Electrolytic, Polymer-Electrolytic Capacitors
When using electrolytic capacitors, high-quality, computer-grade electrolytic capacitors are recommended.
Polymer-electrolytic type capacitors are recommended for applications where the ambient operating temperature
is less than 0°C. The Sanyo OS-CON capacitor series is suggested due to the lower ESR, higher rated surge,
power dissipation, ripple current capability, and small package size. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors provide
adequate decoupling over the frequency range of 2 kHz to 150 kHz, and are suitable when ambient temperatures
are above 0°C.
Ceramic Capacitors
The performance of aluminum electrolytic capacitors is less effective than ceramic capacitors above 150 kHz.
Multilayer ceramic capacitors have a low ESR and a resonant frequency higher than the bandwidth of the
regulator. They can be used to reduce the reflected ripple current at the input as well as improve the transient
response of the output.
Tantalum, Polymer-Tantalum Capacitors
Polymer-tantalum type capacitors are recommended for applications where the ambient operating temperature is
less than 0°C. The Sanyo POSCAP series and Kemet T530 capacitor series are recommended rather than many
other tantalum types due to their lower ESR, higher rated surge, power dissipation, ripple current capability, and
small package size. Tantalum capacitors that have no stated ESR or surge current rating are not recommended
for power applications.
Input Capacitor
The TPS84410 requires a minimum input capacitance of 47 μF of ceramic capacitance. An additional 220 μF
polymer-tantalum capacitor is recommended for applications with transient load requirements. The combined
ripple current rating of the input capacitors must be at least 2000 mArms. Table 5 includes a preferred list of
capacitors by vendor. For applications where the ambient operating temperature is less than 0°C, an additional
1 μF, X5R or X7R ceramic capacitor placed between VIN and AGND is recommended.
Output Capacitor
The required output capacitance is determined by the output voltage of the TPS84410. See Table 3 for the
amount of required capacitance. The required output capacitance must include at least one 47 µF ceramic
capacitor. For applications where the ambient operating temperature is less than 0°C, an additional 100 µF
polymer-tantalum capacitor is recommended. When adding additional non-ceramic bulk capacitors, low-ESR
devices like the ones recommended in Table 5 are required. The required capacitance above the minimum is
determined by actual transient deviation requirements. See Table 4 for typical transient response values for
several output voltage, input voltage and capacitance combinations. Table 5 includes a preferred list of
capacitors by vendor.

Power Good (PWRGD)
The PWRGD pin is an open drain output. Once the voltage on the SENSE+ pin is between 93% and 105% of the
set voltage, the PWRGD pin pull-down is released and the pin floats. The recommended pull-up resistor value is
between 10 kΩ and 100 kΩ to a voltage source that is 6 V or less. The PWRGD pin is in a defined state once
VIN is greater than 1.2 V, but with reduced current sinking capability. The PWRGD pin achieves full current
sinking capability once the VIN pin is above 2.95V. Figure 21 shows the PWRGD waveform during power-up.
The PWRGD pin is pulled low when the voltage on SENSE+ is lower than 91% or greater than 107% of the
nominal set voltage. Also, the PWRGD pin is pulled low if the input UVLO or thermal shutdown is asserted, or if
the INH pin is pulled low.
Power-Up Characteristics
When configured as shown in the front page schematic, the TPS84410 produces a regulated output voltage
following the application of a valid input voltage. During the power-up, internal soft-start circuitry slows the rate
that the output voltage rises, thereby limiting the amount of in-rush current that can be drawn from the input
source. The soft-start circuitry introduces a short time delay from the point that a valid input voltage is
recognized. Figure 21 shows the start-up waveforms for a TPS84410, operating from a 5-V input and with the
output voltage adjusted to 1.8 V. The waveform is measured with a 2-A constant current load.
Figure 21. Start-Up Waveforms
Remote Sense
The SENSE+ pin must be connected to VOUT at the load, or at the device pins.
Connecting the SENSE+ pin to VOUT at the load improves the load regulation performance of the device by
allowing it to compensate for any I-R voltage drop between its output pins and the load. An I-R drop is caused by
the high output current flowing through the small amount of pin and trace resistance. This should be limited to a
maximum of 300 mV.
NOTE
The remote sense feature is not designed to compensate for the forward drop of nonlinear
or frequency dependent components that may be placed in series with the converter
output. Examples include OR-ing diodes, filter inductors, ferrite beads, and fuses. When
these components are enclosed by the SENSE+ connection, they are effectively placed
inside the regulation control loop, which can adversely affect the stability of the regulator.

Output On/Off Inhibit (INH)
The INH pin provides electrical on/off control of the device. Once the INH pin voltage exceeds the threshold
voltage, the device starts operation. If the INH pin voltage is pulled below the threshold voltage, the regulator
stops switching and enters low quiescent current state.
The INH pin has an internal pull-up current source, allowing the user to float the INH pin for enabling the device.
If an application requires controlling the INH pin, use an open drain/collector device, or a suitable logic gate to
interface with the pin. Do not place an external pull-up resistor on this pin. Figure 22 shows the typical application
of the inhibit function.
Turning Q1 on applies a low voltage to the inhibit control (INH) pin and disables the output of the supply, as
shown in Figure 23. If Q1 is turned off, the supply executes a soft-start power-up sequence, as shown in
Figure 24. The waveforms were measured with a 2-A constant current load.

Slow Start (SS/TR)
Connecting the STSEL pin to AGND and leaving SS/TR pin open enables the internal SS capacitor with a slow
start interval of approximately 1.1 ms. Adding additional capacitance between the SS pin and AGND increases
the slow start time. Table 6 shows an additional SS capacitor connected to the SS/TR pin and the STSEL pin
connected to AGND. See Table 6 below for SS capacitor values and timing interval.

Overcurrent Protection
For protection against load faults, the TPS84410 uses current limiting. The device is protected from overcurrent
conditions by cycle-by-cycle current limiting and frequency foldback. During an overcurrent condition the output
current is limited and the output voltage is reduced, as shown in Figure 26. When the overcurrent condition is
removed, the output voltage returns to the established voltage, as shown in Figure 27.

Synchronization (CLK)
An internal phase locked loop (PLL) has been implemented to allow synchronization between 500 kHz and
2 MHz, and to easily switch from RT mode to CLK mode. To implement the synchronization feature, connect a
square wave clock signal to the RT/CLK pin with a minimum pulse width of 75 ns. The maximum clock pulse
width must be calculated using Equation 2. The clock signal amplitude must transition lower than 0.4 V and
higher than 2.2 V. The start of the switching cycle is synchronized to the falling edge of RT/CLK pin. In
applications where both RT mode and CLK mode are needed, the device can be configured as shown in
Figure 28.
Before the external clock is present, the device works in RT mode and the switching frequency is set by RT
resistor (RRT). When the external clock is present, the CLK mode overrides the RT mode. The device switches
from RT mode to CLK mode and the RT/CLK pin becomes high impedance as the PLL starts to lock onto the
frequency of the external clock. The device will lock to the external clock frequency approximately 15 µs after a
valid clock signal is present. It is not recommended to switch from CLK mode back to RT mode because the
internal switching frequency drops to a lower frequency before returning to the switching frequency set by the RT
resistor.

The synchronization frequency must be selected based on the output voltages of the devices being
synchronized. Table 7 shows the allowable frequencies for a given range of output voltages based on a resistive
load. 5V input applications requiring 3.5A or less can synchronize to a wider frequency range. For the most
efficient solution, always synchronize to the lowest allowable frequency. For example, an application requires
synchronizing three TPS84410 devices with output voltages of [email protected], [email protected] and 3.3V@ 2.1A, all
powered from VIN = 5V. Table 7 shows that all three output voltages can be synchronized to any frequency
between 750 kHz to 1 MHz. For best efficiency, choose 750 kHz as the sychronization frequency.

Sequencing (SS/TR)
Many of the common power supply sequencing methods can be implemented using the SS/TR, INH and
PWRGD pins. The sequential method is illustrated in Figure 29 using two TPS84410 devices. The PWRGD pin
of the first device is coupled to the INH pin of the second device which enables the second power supply once
the primary supply reaches regulation. Do not place a pull-up resistor on PWRGD in this configuration. Figure 30
shows sequential turn-on waveforms of two TPS84410 devices.

Programmable Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
The TPS84410 implements internal UVLO circuitry on the VIN pin. The device is disabled when the VIN pin
voltage falls below the internal VIN UVLO threshold. The internal VIN UVLO rising threshold is 3.135 V (max)
with a typical hysteresis of 300 mV.
If an application requires a higher UVLO threshold on the VIN pin, the UVLO pin can be configured as shown in
Figure 33. Table 8 lists standard values for RUVLO to adjust the VIN UVLO voltage up.

Thermal Shutdown
The internal thermal shutdown circuitry forces the device to stop switching if the junction temperature exceeds
175°C typically. The device reinitiates the power up sequence when the junction temperature drops below 160°C
typically.
Layout Considerations
To achieve optimal electrical and thermal performance, an optimized PCB layout is required. Figure 34, shows a
typical PCB layout. Some considerations for an optimized layout are:
• Use large copper areas for power planes (VIN, VOUT, and PGND) to minimize conduction loss and thermal
stress.
• Place ceramic input and output capacitors close to the module pins to minimize high frequency noise.
• Locate additional output capacitors between the ceramic capacitor and the load.
• Place a dedicated AGND copper area beneath the TPS84410.
• Connect the AGND and PGND copper area at one point; directly at the pin 37 PowerPad using multiple vias.
• Place RSET, RRT, and CSS as close as possible to their respective pins.
• Use multiple vias to connect the power planes to internal layers.
