SLUSAX2 – FEBRUARY 2012
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Functional Overview
The TPS51463 is a D-CAP+™ mode adaptive on-time converter. The output voltage is set using a 2-bit DAC that
outputs a reference voltage in accordance with the code defined in Table 1. VID-on-the-fly transitions are
supported with the slew rate controlled by a single capacitor on the SLEW pin. The converter automatically runs
in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) to optimize light-load efficiency. Two switching frequency selections
are provided, (700 kHz and 1 MHz) to enable optimization of the power chain for the cost, size and efficiency
requirements of the design.
In adaptive on-time converters, the controller varies the on-time as a function of input and output voltage to
maintain a nearly constant frequency during steady-state conditions. In conventional constant on-time converters,
each cycle begins when the output voltage crosses to a fixed reference level. However, in the TPS51463, the
cycle begins when the current feedback reaches an error voltage level which is the amplified difference between
the reference voltage and the feedback voltage.
PWM Operation
Referring to Figure 2, in steady state, continuous conduction mode, the converter operates in the following way.
Starting with the condition that the top FET is off and the bottom FET is on, the current feedback (VCS) is higher
than the error amplifier output (VCOMP). VCS falls until it hits VCOMP, which contains a component of the output
ripple voltage. VCS is not directly accessible by measuring signals on pins of TPS51463. The PWM comparator
senses where the two waveforms cross and triggers the on-time generator.

The current feedback is an amplified and filtered version of the voltage between PGND and SW during low-side
FET on-time. The TPS51463 also provides a single-ended differential voltage (VOUT) feedback to increase the
system accuracy and reduce the dependence of circuit performance on layout.

PWM Frequency and Adaptive on Time Control
In general, the on-time (at the SW node) can be estimated by Equation 1.
V

tON = OUT ´
VIN
fSW
where
•
fSW is the frequency selected by the connection of the MODE pin
(1)
The on-time pulse is sent to the top FET. The inductor current and the current feedback rises to peak value.
Each ON pulse is latched to prevent double pulsing. Switching frequency settings are shown in Table 3.
Non-Droop Configuration
The TPS51463 offers a non-droop solution only. The benefit of a non-droop approach is that load regulation is
flat, therefore, in a system where tight DC tolerance is desired, the non-droop approach is recommended. For the
Intel system agent application, non-droop is recommended as the standard configuration.
The non-droop approach can be implemented by connecting a resistor and a capacitor between the COMP and
the VREF pins. The purpose of the type II compensation is to obtain high DC feedback gain while minimizing the
phase delay at unity gain cross over frequency of the converter.
The value of the resistor (RC) can be calculated using the desired unity gain bandwidth of the converter, and the
value of the capacitor (CC) can be calculated by knowing where the zero location is desired. An application tool
that calculates these values is available from your local TI Field Application Engineer.
Figure 3 shows the basic implementation of the non-droop mode using the TPS51463.

Light Load Power Saving Features
The TPS51463 has an automatic pulse-skipping mode to provide excellent efficiency over a wide load range.
The converter senses inductor current and prevents negative flow by shutting off the low-side gate driver. This
saves power by eliminating re-circulation of the inductor current. Further, when the bottom FET shuts off, the
converter enters discontinuous mode, and the switching frequency decreases, thus reducing switching losses as
well.
Voltage Slewing
The TPS51463 ramps the SLEW voltage up and down to perform the output voltage transitioning. The timing is
independent of switching frequency, as well as output resistive and capacitive loading. It is set by a capacitor
from SLEW pin to GND, called CSLEW, together with an internal current source of 10 µA. The slew rate is used to
set the startup and voltage transition rate.

SR is the target output voltage slew rate, per Intel specification between 0.5 mV/µs and 10 mV/µs
(3)
For the current reference design, an SR of 1 mV/µs is targeted. The CSLEW is calculated to be 10 nF. The slower
slew rate is desired to minimize large inductor current perturbation during startup and voltage transitioning thus
reducing the possibility of acoustic noise.
After the power up, when VID1 is transitioning from 0 to 1, TPS51463 follows the SLEW voltage entering the
forced PWM mode to actively discharge the output voltage from 0.9 V to 0.85 V. The actual output voltage slew
rate is approximately the same as the set slew rate while the bandwidth of the converter supports it and there is
no overcurrent triggered by additional charging current flowing into the output capacitors. After SLEW transition is
completed, PWM mode is maintained for 64 µs (16 clock cycles when the frequency is 1 MHz) to ensure voltage
regulation.
Protection Features
The TPS51463 offers many features to protect the converter power chain as well as the system electronics.
5-V Undervoltage Protection (UVLO)
The TPS51463 continuously monitors the voltage on the V5FILT pin to ensure that the voltage level is high
enough to bias the device properly and to provide sufficient gate drive potential to maintain high efficiency. The
converter starts with approximately 4.3 V and has a nominal of 440 mV of hysteresis. If the 5-V UVLO limit is
reached, the converter transitions the phase node into a 3-state function. And the converter remains in the off
state until the device is reset by cycling 5 V until the 5-V POR is reached (2.3-V nominal). The power input does
not have an UVLO function
Power Good Signals
The TPS51463 has one open-drain power good (PGOOD) pin. During startup, there is a 3 ms power good delay
starting from the output voltage reaching the regulation point (excluding soft-start ramp-up time). And there is
also a 1 ms power good high propagation delay. The PGOOD pin de-asserts as soon as the EN pin is pulled low
or an undervoltage condition on V5FILT is detected. The PGOOD signal is blanked during VID voltage transitions
to prevent false triggering during voltage slewing.

Output Overvoltage Protection (OVP)
In addition to the power good function described above, the TPS51463 has additional OVP and UVP thresholds
and protection circuits.
An OVP condition is detected when the output voltage is approximately 120% × VSLEW. In this case, the
converter de-asserts the PGOOD signals and performs the overvoltage protection function. The converter
remains in this state until the device is reset by cycling 5 V until the 5-V POR threshold (2.3 V nominal) is
reached.
Output Undervoltage Protection (UVP)
Output undervoltage protection works in conjunction with the current protection described in the Overcurrent
Protection and Overcurrent Limit sections. If the output voltage drops below 70% of VSLEW, after an 8-µs delay,
the device latches OFF. Undervoltage protection can be reset only by EN or a 5-V POR.
Overcurrent Protection
Both positive and negative overcurrent protection are provided in the TPS51463:
• Overcurrent Limit (OCL)
• Negative OCL (level same as positive OCL)
Overcurrent Limit
If the sensed current value is above the OCL setting, the converter delays the next ON pulse until the current
drops below the OCL limit. Current limiting occurs on a pulse-by-pulse basis. The TPS51463 uses a valley
current limiting scheme where the DC OCL trip point is the OCL limit plus half of the inductor ripple current. The
minimum valley OCL is 4 A over process and temperature.
During the overcurrent protection event, the output voltage likely droops until the UVP limit is reached. Then, the
converter de-asserts the PGOOD pin, and then latches OFF after an 8-µs delay. The converter remains in this
state until the device is reset by EN or a 5VFILT POR.
1
IOCL(dc ) = IOCL(valley ) + ´ IP-P
2
(4)
Negative OCL
The negative OCL circuit acts when the converter is sinking current from the output capacitor(s). The converter
continues to act in a valley mode, the absolute value of the negative OCL set point is typically -5 A.
Thermal Protection
Thermal Shutdown
The TPS51463 has an internal temperature sensor. When the temperature reaches a nominal 125°C, the device
shuts down until the temperature cools by approximately 10°C. Then the converter restarts.

DESIGN PROCEDURE
The simplified design procedure steps using the TPS51463 converter application are outlined in this section.
Step One
Determine the specifications.
The System Agent Rail requirements provide the following key parameters:
1. V00 = 0.90 V
2. V10 = 0.85 V
3. ICC(max) = 4 A
4. IDYN(max) = 2 A
5. ICC(tdc) = 3 A
Step Two
Determine system parameters.
The input voltage range and operating frequency are of primary interest. For example:
1. VIN = 5 V
2. fSW = 1 MHz
Step Three
Determine inductor value and choose inductor.
Smaller values of inductor have better transient performance but higher ripple and lower efficiency. Higher values
have the opposite characteristics. It is common practice to limit the ripple current to 25% to 50% of the maximum
current. In this case, use 37.5%:
IP-P = 4 A ´ 0.375 = 1.5 A
(5)
At fSW = 1 MHz, with a 5-V input and a 0.85-V output:

= 0.47 mH
(6)
For this application, a 0.42-µH, 1.55-mΩ inductor from NEC-TOKIN with part number MPCG0740LR42C is
chosen.
Step Four
Set the output voltage.
The output voltage is determined by the VID settings. The actual voltage set point for each VID setting is listed in
Table 1. No external resistor dividers are needed for this design.
Step Five
Calculate CSLEW.
VID pin transition and soft-start time is determined by CSLEW and 10 µA of internal current source.

= 10nF
CSLEW = SLEW =
SRDAC 1 mV

(7)
The slower slew rate is desired to minimize large inductor current perturbation during startup and voltage
transition, thus reducing the possibility of acoustic noise.

Calculate OCL.
The DC OCL level of TPS51463 design is determined by Equation 9,

IOCL(dc ) = IOCL(valley ) + ´ IP-P = 4 A + ´ 1.5 A = 4.75 A

(9)
The minimum valley OCL is 4 A over process and temperature, and IP-P = 1.5 A, the minimum DC OCL is
calculated to be 4.75A.
Step Seven
Determine the output capacitance.
To determine COUT based on transient and stability requirement, first calculate the the minimum output
capacitance for a given transient.
Equation 11 and Equation 10 can be used to estimate the amount of capacitance needed for a given dynamic
load step/release. Please note that there are other factors that may impact the amount of output capacitance for
a specific design, such as ripple and stability. Equation 11 and Equation 10 are used only to estimate the
transient requirement, the result should be used in conjunction with other factors of the design to determine the
necessary output capacitance for the application.

Equation 10 and Equation 11 calculate the minimum COUT for meeting the transient requirement, which is
78.6 µF, given the following parameters:
• ±3% voltage allowance for load step and release
• MLCC capacitance derating of 50% due to DC and AC bias effect
In this reference design, 4, 22-µF capacitors are used in order to provide this amount of capacitance.

Step Eight
Determine the stability based on the output capacitance COUT.
In order to achieve stable operation. The 0-dB frequency, f0 should be kept less than 1/5 of the switching
frequency (1 MHz). (See Figure 3)

(13)
Using 4, 22-µF capacitors, the compensation resistance, RC can be calculated to be approximately 5 kΩ.
The purpose of the comparator capacitor (CC) is to reduce the DC component to obtain high DC feedback gain.
However, as it causes phase delay, another zero to cancel this effect at f0 is needed. This zero can be
determined by values of CC and the compensation resistor, RC.
f

= 0
fZ =
2p ´ RC ´ CC 10
(14)
And since RC has previously been derived, the value of CC is calculated to be 2.2 nF. In order to further boost
phase margin, a value of 3.3-nF is chosen for this reference design.
Step Nine
Select decoupling and peripheral components.
For TPS51463 peripheral capacitors use the following minimum values of ceramic capacitance. X5R or better
temperature coefficient is recommended. Tighter tolerances and higher voltage ratings are always appropriate.
• V5DRV decoupling ≥ 2.2 µF, ≥ 10 V
• V5FILT decoupling ≥ 1 µF, ≥10 V
• VREF decoupling 0.22 µF to 1 µF, ≥ 4 V
• Bootstrap capacitors ≥ 0.1 µF, ≥ 10 V
• Pull-up resistors on PGOOD, 100 kΩ
Layout Considerations
Good layout is essential for stable power supply operation. Follow these guidelines for an efficient PCB layout.
• Connect PGND pins (or at least one of the pins) to the thermal PAD underneath the device. Also connect
GND pin to the thermal PAD underneath the device. Use four vias to connect the thermal pad to internal
ground planes.
• Place VIN, V5DRV, V5FILT and 2VREF decoupling capacitors as close to the device as possible.
• Use wide traces for the VIN, VOUT, PGND and SW pins. These nodes carry high current and also serve as
heat sinks.
• Place feedback and compensation components as close to the device as possible.
• Keep analog signals (SLEW, COMP) away from noisy signals (SW, VBST).
