DESCRIPTION
The TPS51513 is a single-phase synchronous buck
controller with integrated gate drivers. Advanced
control features such as the D-CAP+™ architecture
and OSR™ overshoot reduction provide fast transient
response, low output capacitance and high efficiency.
The TPS51513 supports a wide range of IC VCORE
applications with an integrated 3-bit DAC. It also
provides a full complement of signal I/O including a
sleep mode control (SLP), two power good signals
(PGOOD and PG), and an analog current monitor
(IMON). Logic inputs are compatible with either 1-V
or 3.3-V logic levels. VCORE slew rates are controlled
with one resistor. In addition, the TPS51513 includes
high-current FET gate drivers with an integrated P/N
junction diode to drive N-channel FETs with low
switching loss. The TPS51513 is available in the
5 mm × 5 mm, 32-pin QFN package and operates
between –10°C and 100°C.

Functional Overview
The TPS51513 is a DCAP+™ mode adaptive on-time converter. The output voltage is set using a DAC that
outputs a reference in accordance with either the 3-bit VID code defined in Table 3. VID-on-the-fly transitions are
supported with the slew rate controlled by a single resistor on the ISLEW pin. Powerful integrated FET drivers
support output currents in excess of 25 A. The converter automatically runs in discontinuous mode to optimize
light-load efficiency and battery life. The four switching frequency selections (given in Table 3) enable
optimization of the power chain for the cost, size and efficiency requirements of the design.

In adaptive on-time converters, the controller changes the on-time as a function of input and output voltage to
maintain a nearly constant frequency during steady-state conditions. In conventional voltage-mode constant
on-time converters, each cycle begins when the output voltage crosses to a fixed reference level. However, in
the TPS51513, the cycle begins when the current feedback reaches an error voltage level which is the amplified
difference between the DAC voltage and the feedback voltage.
This approach has two advantages:
1. The amplifier DC gain sets an accurate linear load-line; this is required for CPU core applications.
2. The error voltage input to the PWM comparator is filtered to improve the noise performance.

PWM Operation
Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 4, in steady state, continuous conduction mode, the converter operates as
follows:
Starting with the condition that the top FET is off and the bottom FET is on, the current feedback (VCMP) is higher
than the error amplifier output (VDROOP). VCMP falls until it hits VDROOP, which contains a component of the output
ripple voltage. 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 the CSP and CSN inputs. The
TPS51513 provides fully differential current and voltage feedback to increase the system accuracy and reduce
the dependence of circuit performance on layout.

Droop or No-Droop Compensation
The TPS51513 can be designed to either provide a linear load line (also known as droop) or operate with a flat
load-line (no-droop). This is achieved by the component topology at the DROOP pin.
Droop is obtained by putting a resistor from DROOP to VREF (RDROOP) to limit the gain of the error amplifier. The
equation for droop is shown in Equation 2.
VDROOP =
RCS ´ A CSINT ´ IOUT
RDROOP ´ GM(droop )

RCS is the effective current sense resistance, whether a sense resistor or inductor DCR is used

The TPS51513 also has the ability to provide an output without a load line. In this case, referring to Figure 2, R2
is left open, and R1 and C2 are populated to break the DC path between DROOP and REF and providing very
high DC loop gain. Means to select R1 and C2 are given in the Design Procedure section.
Overshoot Reduction (OSR™) Feature
The problem of overshoot in low duty-cycle synchronous buck converters is well known, and results from the
output inductor having a small voltage (VCORE) with which to respond to a transient load release.
In Figure 5, with ideal components and the common values of 12-V input and 1-V output, the inductor voltage
(VL) with the upper FET on is 11 V (12V – 1V). With the lower FET on, the inductor voltage is only 1 V.

The idea of OSR is to turn off the lower FET during a transient load release to force the inductor current through
the body diode of the lower FET, thus increasing the voltage across the inductor to VCORE + VDIODE. This
discharges the inductor more quickly and reduces the peak voltage of the transient overshoot. As a result, less
output capacitance is required to achieve a given output tolerance specification.

Figure 6 shows the converter operation during transient release. The energy in the inductor is transferred to the
capacitance on the VCORE node above and the output voltage (channel 4) overshoots the desired level (lower
cursor). In this case, the magnitude of the overshoot is 34 mV. Note that the DRVL waveform (channel 2) is high
during the overshoot.
The performance of the same circuit, but with OSR enabled is shown in Figure 7. In this case, the low-side FET
is shut off when overshoot is detected and the energy in the inductor is partially dissipated by the body diodes.
The overshoot is reduced to 18 mV. Also note that the DRVL signal is OFF only long enough to reduce the
overshoot.

Figure 7. Transient Release Performance is Greatly

Implementation
OSR is implemented using a comparator between the DROOP and CMP nodes in Figure 1. To implement OSR,
simply terminate the OSRSEL pin to the desired voltage to set the threshold voltage for the comparator. The
settings are:
1. GND = minimum trigger voltage (Maximum overshoot reduction)
2. VREF = medium trigger voltage
3. +3.3V = maximum trigger voltage (Minimum overshoot reduction)
4. 5V = OSR off
Use the highest setting that provides the desired level of overshoot reduction to eliminate the possibility of false
OSR operation.
Light Load Power Saving Features
The TPS51513 has several power saving features to provide excellent efficiency over a very large load range.
The TPS51513 has an automatic pulse skipping skip mode. Regardless of the state of the logic inputs, the
converter senses negative inductor current flow and prevents it by shutting off DRVL. This saves power by
eliminating re-circulating current. Also, when the bottom FET shuts off, the converter enters discontinuous mode,
and the switching frequency decreases, thus reducing switching losses as well.
The SLP signal is used to enter a sleep (SLP) mode. The SLP pin determines the method of entering sleep
mode. If SLP is HI, the converter is allowed to run in skip mode. In this mode, for loads with low leakage current,
the output voltage slew rate is determined by the output capacitance and the leakage current. If SLP is LO, the
device enters PWM mode, and the voltage is actively pulled down by the rate set by RSLEW. The equations are
given below. Because changing VCORE quickly results in large currents charging/discharging the output
capacitors, and this can cause audible noise in inductors and ceramic capacitors, entering a sleep mode with
SLP=HI is recommended.

FET Drivers
The TPS51513 incorporates strong, high-performance gate drives with adaptive cross-conduction protection. The
driver uses the state of the DRVL, DRVH, and LL pins to ensure that the top or bottom FET is off before turning
the other on. Fast logic and high-drive currents quickly charge and discharge FET gates to minimize dead-time to
increase efficiency. The top gate driver also includes an internal P-N junction boost diode, decreasing the size
and cost of the external circuitry. For maximum efficiency, this diode can be bypassed externally by connecting a
Schottky diode from V5IN (anode) to VBST (cathode).
Voltage Slewing
The TPS51513 changes the voltage of the internal DAC in a controlled manner to perform SLP entry, SLP exit,
and VID change functions. The slew rate is independent of switching frequency or load. It is set by a resistor
from the ISLEW pin to either GND or VREF (RSLEW). RSLEW sets one rate for SLP exit and VID changes (SR in
the equation below; SR is in units of mV/µs.) A proportional rate is used for soft-start and soft-stop functions. The
ISLEW pin is held at VSLEWREF, which is 1.25 V, nominal.
RSLEW =
K SLEW ´ VSLEW
SR
(4)
In Equation 4), KSLEW = 1.25x109. VSLEW is equal to VSLEWREF (1.25V) when RSLEW is tied to GND. To access
the upper range of OCL limit values, connect RSLEW to VREF. In this case, VSLEW is 0.45V (VREF – VSLEWREF)
and RSLEW must be changed accordingly.
The soft-start and soft-stop slew rates are 1/8 of SR. On start-up, the TPS51513 VCORE output ramps to the level
defined by the VID code (VVID). Because of this, the VID code needs to be valid and stable at the time EN is
raised. The calculation for soft-start and soft-stop time is shown in Equation 5.
t SS =
VVID ´ 8
SR

After approximately 50µs, PG is set LO. Once PG transitions LO, the VID code can change at any time.
Soft Stop Control with Low Impedance Output Termination
The voltage slewing capability is also used to slowly slew the voltage down for a soft-stop
The soft-stop rate equals the soft-start rate. As long as V5IN is available and EN toggles

Protection Features
The TPS51513 has a full suite of features to protect the converter power chain as well as the system electronics.
Input Undervoltage Protection (UVLO):
The TPS51513 continuously monitors the voltage on the V5FILT pin to be sure the value is high enough to bias
the device properly and provide sufficient gate drive potential to maintain high efficiency. The converter starts
with approximately 4.4 V and has a nominal 200 mV of hysteresis. This function is not latched. Removing and
restoring the 5-V power supply to the device can be used to reset it. Be sure the voltage at the device discharges
below 1.6 V before rising again to reset the device.. The power input (VBAT) does not have a UVLO function, so
the circuit operates with power inputs down to approximately 2 × VCORE.
Power Good Signals
The TPS51513 has two open-drain power good pins. PGOOD and PG have the following nominal thresholds:
• High: VDAC +200mV (also acts as a proportional OVP signal)
• Low : VDAC –300mV
The differences are:
• PG transitions active shortly after VCORE reaches VDAC on power-up; PGOOD has a 6ms nominal delay after
PG.

•
PG is negative active; PGOOD is positive active.
Both signals go inactive as soon as the EN pin is pulled low or an undervoltage condition on V5IN is detected.
Both signals are masked during DAC transitions to prevent false triggering during voltage slewing.
Output Overvoltage Protection (OVP):
An OVP condition is detected when VCORE reaches the high PG threshold. When this threshold is reached, the
converter sets PGOOD and PG signals inactive, performs the soft-stop sequence, and latches OFF. The
converter remains in this state until the device is reset by cycling either V5IN or EN.
However, because of the dynamic nature of actively power managed systems, the +200 mV OVP threshold is
blanked during voltage transitions. In order to protect the processor 100% of the time, there is a second OVP
level fixed at 1.55-V nominal which is always active. When a fixed OVP condition is detected, PGOOD and PG
are set inactive and DRVL is driven HI. The converter remains in this state until either V5IN or EN are cycled.
Output Undervoltage Protection (UVP)
Output undervoltage protection works in conjunction with the current protection described below. If VCORE drops
below the low PGOOD threshold for 80µs, then the converter enters soft-stop mode and latches OFF at the
completion of soft stop.
Current Protection
Two types of current protection are provided in the TPS51513:
• Overcurrent Protection (OCP)
• Negative OCP
Overcurrent Protection
The TPS51513 uses a “valley” current limiting circuit. As a result, the OCP set point is the OCP DC limit minus
half of the ripple current. Current limiting occurs on a pulse-by-pulse basis. If the sensed current value is above
the OCP setting, the converter holds off the next ON pulse until the current ramp drops below the OCP limit.
Eight OCP settings are provided in two ranges. The ranges are selected by the termination of the RSLEW resistor
as in Figure 8.
The OCP range is selected by the connection of the RSLEW resistor. Connect RSLEW to VREF to select the high
OCP range as shown in Figure 8. Connect RSLEW to GND to select the low OCP range as shown in Figure 9

The OCP values refer to the voltage between the current sense inputs. Refer to the parameter table to choose
the appropriate TRIPSEL value. The value of RSLEW changes depending on the termination. See the Voltage
Slewing section for details.
In OCP, the voltage droops until the UVP limit is reached. After the UPC limit is reached (approximately 80 µs
later) the converter sets PGOOD and PG signals inactive, performs the soft-stop sequence, and then latches
OFF. The converter remains in this state until the device is reset.
Negative Overcurrent Protection
The negative OCP circuit acts when the converter is sinking current. The converter continues to act in a “valley”
mode, so to have a similar negative DC limit, the absolute value of the negative OCP set point is typically 50%
higher than the positive one.
Thermal Shutdown
The TPS51513 has an internal temperature sensor. When the temperature reaches a nominal 160°C, the device
shuts down until the temperature cools approximately 10°C. Then, the converter latches off until either EN or
V5IN is cycled.
Current Monitor
The TPS51513 includes a current monitor function. The current monitor puts out an analog voltage proportional
to the output power on the IMON pin. The equation is shown in Equation 6.
VIMON = KIMON ´ RIMON ´ VCS
(6)
where

•
KIMON is given in the parameter table
VCS is the differential voltage at the inputs to the current sense amplifiers
In order to increase the accuracy of the current monitor over temperature the IMON2 pin is provided to match the
temperature coefficients of two critical resistors in the circuit. Connect a resistor from IMON2 to VREF.
After determining the full-scale voltage on the IMON output (VIMON) and selecting RIMON, the value of RIMON2
resistor can be calculated as shown in Equation 7.

The IMON output requires a ceramic capacitor ≥3.3 nF connected to GSNS (or GND) for stable operation.
IMON Clamp Function
The IMON function also includes a clamp to prevent overvoltage of the device reading the IMON voltage. The
clamp voltage is set by the voltage applied at the IMONC pin (pin 12). IMONC is intended to be connected to the
same supply voltage as the downstream A/D converter, but other implementations are possible. To meet the
specified tolerances, a minimum headroom voltage for the IMON clamp must be observed. The V5FILT voltage
needs to be higher than the IMONC voltage by a minimum amount specified in the parameter table. Bypass
IMONC with a ceramic capacitor ≥0.1µF connected to GND.
VID Table
The TPS51513 belongs to a family of power management devicess that can be programmed to any eight VID
values. These values are from 0.3 V to 1.5 V in 12.5 mV steps. The specific VID selections for the TPS51513 are
given in Table 4. Other VID selections are possible, and are provided under a different device number. Contact

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Design Procedure
The TPS51513 has a simple design procedure for a high-performance controller.
Initial Parameters:
Step One: Determine the load requirements. For the purposes of this exercise, the following requirements are
used:
The processor requirements provide the following key parameters:
1. VMAX = 1.050 V
2. RL-L = –3 mΩ
3. IMAX = 22 A; IOCP_MIN = 25 A
4. IDYN-MAX = 10 A
5. Sleep slew rate = 5 mV/µs (minimum)
Step Two: Determine system parameters. The input voltage range and operating frequency are of primary
interest. For example:
1. VIN-MAX = 15 V
2. VIN-MIN = 8 V
3. f = 300 kHz
For an operating frequency of 350 kHz, tie TONSEL to 3.3 V.
Step Three: Determine current sensing method. The TPS51513 supports both resistor sensing and inductor
DCR sensing. Inductor DCR sensing is chosen.
For resistor sensing, substitute the resistor value (1 mΩ recommended for a approximately 25-A application) for
RCS in the subsequent equations and skip Step Five.
Step Four: 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 20% to 40% of the maximum current per phase. In this case, we use 20%:
IP-P = 25 A × 0.2 = 5 A

IP-P = 25 A ´ 0.2 = 5 A

The chosen inductor should have the following characteristics:
1. As flat an inductance vs. current curve as possible. Inductor DCR sensing is based on the idea L/DCR is
approximately a constant through the current range of interest.
2. Either high saturation or soft saturation
3. Low DCR for high efficiency, but at least 0.7 mΩ for proper signal levels.
4. DCR tolerance as low as possible for load-line accuracy.
For this application, the Vishay IHLP5050CZ-06 0.6-µH, 1.85-mΩ inductor is chosen.
Step Five: Design the thermal compensation network. In most designs, NTC thermistors are used to
compensate thermal variations in the resistance of the inductor winding. This winding is generally copper, and so
has a resistance coefficient of 3900 PPM/°C. NTC thermistors, on the other hand, have very non-linear
characteristics and need two or three resistors to linearize them over the range of interest. The typical DCR
circuit is shown in Figure 10.

all of the parameters are defined in Figure 10
REQ is the series/parallel combination of the other four discrete resistors
CSENSE should be a capacitor type which is stable overtemperature. Use X7R or better dielectric (C0G preferred).

this case, the nearest standard values are:
RSEQU = 2.61 kΩ;
RSERIES = 3.16 kΩ;
RPAR = 12.7 kΩ
CSENSE =180 nF
Note the effective divider ratio for the inductor DCR. The effective current sense resistance (RCS_Eff) is:
RCS(eff ) = RDCR ´
RP _ N
RSEQU + RP _ N
RP_N is the series/parallel combination of RNTC, RSERIES and RPAR.
RP _ N =
RPAR ´ (RNTC + RSERIES )
RPAR + RNTC + RSERIES
RCS_Eff is 1.31mΩ. Choose the value of TRIPSEL so the minimum TRIPSEL voltage is just above the voltage
across the current sense pins at the valley point of the current waveform. Maximize the value of RCS_Eff for
improved circuit performance.

In this case, the TRIPSEL minimum value needs to be greater than 29.8 mV; the next highest value in the
parameter table is 31.4 mV. This value corresponds to connecting TRIPSEL to VREF and RSLEW to VREF.
Step Six: Determine the output capacitor configuration. In general, for a system with a load-line, the ESR of the
output capacitors should be equal to or less than the load-line value. The magnitude and slew rate of the
dynamic load also drives the capacitor choice, as does the inductor selection. For highly dynamic systems, a
successful design has a combination of bulk and ceramic capacitance totaling approximately 1000µF.

Step Seven: Set the load line. The load line is set by the droop resistor knowing RL-L and RCS_Eff.
RDROOP =
RCS(eff ) ´ A CS
GM ´ RL -L
(9)
RDROOP = 5.23 kΩ.
Step Eight: Select the DROOP capacitor.
The DROOP capacitor is used to provide high-frequency filtering of the voltage loop. Use values under 100 pF. A
higher value provides less jitter for steady-state operation, but slows down the transient response.
Step Nine: Calculate RSLEW. RSLEW sets both slew rates:
1. Sleep exit slew rate.
2. Soft-start and soft-stop exit rate is 1/8 of the sleep exit rate
Set the sleep rate to 6 mV/µs to allow 20% for tolerances. From Equation 3):
RSLEW =
K SLEW ´ VSLEW
SR
(10)
9
In this case, RSLEW is terminated to GND. KSLEW = 1.25x10 and VSLEW = 0.45 V. For a slew rate (SR) of 6 mV/µs
nominal, 5 mV/µS minimum, RSLEW = 90.9 kΩ.
Step Ten: Calculate IMON resistors.
From Equation 6,
RIMON =
VIMON
K IMON ´ VCS
(11)
And,
VCS = RCS(eff ) ´ IMAX
(12)
where
•
•
VCS = 29.8 mV
KIMON = 2µA/mV
The IMONC pin is connected to 3.3 V; to allow for tolerances, a full scale value of 3.1 V (VIMON) is desired. Then,
RIMON = 47.5 kΩ.
In order to increase the accuracy of the current monitor overtemperature the IMON2 pin is provided to match the
temperature coefficients of two critical resistors in the circuit. Connect a resistor from IMON2 to VREF.
After determining the full-scale voltage on the IMON output (VIMON) and selecting RIMON, the value of RIMON2
resistor is from Equation 7:
RIMON2 =
8 ´ VCS ´ A CSINT ´ RIMON
VIMON
(13)
where

ACSINT = 6
RIMON2 = 24.3kΩ

Step Eleven: Select decoupling and peripheral components.
For TPS51513 peripheral capacitors please use the following minimum values of ceramic capacitance. X5R or
better temperature coefficient is recommended. Tighter tolerances and higher voltage ratings are always OK.
• V5IN decoupling ≥ 2.2µF, ≥ 10V
• V5FILT decoupling ≥ 1µF, ≥ 10V
• VREF decoupling 0.22 µF to 1µF, ≥ 4V
• Bootstrap capacitors ≥ 0.22µF, ≥ 10V
• Bootstrap diode (optional) 30V Schottky diode, BAT-54 or better
For power chain and other component selection, see Table 2.
Control Loop Design
The TPS51513 control architecture (current-mode, constant on-time) has been analyzed by the Center for Power
Electronics Systems (CPES) at Virginia Polytechnic and State University. The following equations are from their
presentation: Equivalent Circuit Representation of Current-Mode Control from November 21, 2008.
One of the benefits of this technology is the lack of the sample and hold effect that limits the bandwidth of fixed
frequency current mode controllers and causes sub-harmonic oscillations.
The loop gain is the gain of the DROOP amplifier multiplied by the control-to-output gain:

The theoretical waveform is plotted in Figure 12. For comparison purposes, the measured data is in Figure 13.
Note the excellent correlation between the theoretical and actual data. In both cases, the 0-dB bandwidth is
approximately 25 kHz, and the phase margin is >90 degrees! As a result, creating the desired loop response is a
matter of adding a DC gain component (if a load-line is allowed) or adding an appropriate pole-zero or
pole-zero-pole compensation

Limit the overall open-loop bandwidth below 1/2 of fS to avoid violating the Nyquist Criterion. Also, for the best
performance of the modulator, the characteristic of the compensation should be resistive at the switching
frequency. With this in mind, a zero frequency in the range of 10% to 20% of fS is recommended.

Because the droop amplifier is a trans-conductance amplifier, for a series RC-CC, the pole is at 0 Hz, mid-band
gain is gM × RC, and the zero frequency is RC × CC. For RC = 4.02 kΩ and CC = 1000 pF, the mid-band gain is
2.01 and the zero frequency is approximately 40 kHz. The droop amplifier gain is graphed in Figure 14 and the

this analysis omits the affect of ceramic capacitance on the output. Ceramic capacitors reduce the loop gain at
high frequencies. Contact your TI representative to obtain a copy of the Mathcad® spreadsheet used to generate
