Application Information
The TF6002 is a monolithic synchronous buck regulator featuring integrated 130 mW Power MOSFETs that can provide up to
2A of load current. It regulates input voltages from 4.5V to 26V
down to an output voltage as low as 0.923V while providing
soft-start, cycle-by-cycle over-current, under-voltage lockout
and over-temperature protection.
SETTING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE
Based on the circuit of Figure 9, the output voltage depends on
the feedback voltage, VFB, and the resistor divider network consisting of R1 and R2, as expressed with the following equation:
VOUT = VFB 
This section of the datasheet describes typical application circuits, provides recommendations on component selection, and
discusses thermal and layout design considerations.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
The TF6002 uses a fixed frequency, current-mode step-down
regulator architecture to deliver constant voltage to the load.
Figure 9 shows a typical application circuit.

R1 + R2
R2
The R2 resistor value may be as high as 100 kW, however 10 kW
resistor value is typically recommended. Given this and the typical VFB of 0.923V, the R1 resistor may easily be calculated for a desired output voltage. Table 1 exemplifies several standard resistor values needed to achieve desired output voltage. If standard
resistor values are not available a parallel combination of two
standard resistors may also be used.

COMPONENT SELECTION
Inductor: High frequency operation of the TF6002 allows the
use of small surface mount inductors. The minimum inductance
value is inversely proportional to the operating frequency and is
bounded by the following limits:

fS IL( MAX )ripple VIN

Table 2. List of Recommended Inductor Series
•
fS = Operating frequency [Hz]
•
IL(MAX)ripple = Allowable maximum inductor current ripple [A]
•
VIN = Input voltage [V]
•
VOUT = Output voltage [V]
The inductor current ripple is typically set to 20% to 40% of the
maximum load current. Given this, the operating frequency and
the input and output voltages for the TF6002 regulator circuits,
it is easy to calculate the optimal inductor value which typically
ranges between 10 and 47 mH. Note that a larger value inductor
will result in less ripple current and ultimately in lower output
ripple voltage. However, the larger value inductor will have a
larger physical size, higher series resistance, and lower saturation current.
Choose an inductor that will not saturate under the maximum
inductor peak current. The peak inductor current is given in the
following equation:
IL( peak
=) ILOAD +
VOUT (VIN − VOUT )
2fS L1VIN
[ A]
For high efficiency, it is recommended to select an inductor
with a high frequency core material (e.g. ferrite) to minimize
core losses. Low ESR (equivalent series resistance) is another
preferred inductor characteristic when designing for low losses.
The inductor must handle the peak inductor current at full load
without saturating. Note that the peak inductor current must be
below the maximum switch current limit. Chip inductors typically do not have enough core to support the peak inductor currents above 1A and are not suitable for the TF6002 applications.
Lastly, select a toroid, pot core or shielded bobbin inductor for
low radiated noise. Table 2 provides a list of recommended inductor series.
March 15, 2011
Optional Schottky Diode: During the transition between the
high-side switch and the low side switch, the body diode of the
low-side switch (N-channel power MOSFET) conducts the inductor current. Forward voltage of this body diode is relatively
high, therefore, an optional Schottky diode may be paralleled
between SW and GND pins. The Schottky diode which features low forward voltage and fast recovery time will result in
improved peak efficiency of the buck regulator circuits. Table 3
provides a list of recommended diode series.

Input Capacitor: The input current to the buck regulator is discontinuous, therefore, a capacitor is required to supply AC current to the regulator while maintaining the DC input voltage.
Output Capacitor: The value of the output capacitor of Figure
1 (C2) has an effect on the output voltage ripple as expressed in
the following equation:
The input capacitor of Figure 1 (C1) absorbs the input switching current, therefore, it requires adequate ripple current rating.
The RMS current in the input capacitor can be estimated using
the following equation:
 V 
V
=
IC 1 ILOAD  OUT  1− OUT 
VIN 
VIN 
The worst case condition occurs when VIN is twice the value of
VOUT. In this case, the IC1 is equal to the half of the load current. As
a rule of thumb, select the input capacitor with the RMS current
rating greater than the half of the maximum load current.
The input capacitor reduces peak currents drawn from the input
source and reduces input switching noise. The input voltage
ripple caused by the input capacitor can be estimated using the
following equation:

V
fS L1 
OUT
DVOUT =
 1−
where
•
fS = Operating frequency [Hz]
•
ESRC2 = Equivalent series resistance of C2
•
VIN = Input voltage [V]
•
VOUT = Output voltage [V]
The output capacitor, C2, can be ceramic, tantalum or electrolytic type. When using ceramic capacitors, the impedance at the
switching frequency is dominated by the capacitance, therefore,
the above equation may be simplified as the following:
=
DVOUT
=
DVIN
ILOAD VOUT  VOUT 

 1−

C1fS VIN 
VIN 
The input capacitor values in the range between 10 and 47 mF
are sufficient in most cases. Low ESR capacitors are recommended for a low loss operation. Ceramic capacitors with X5R
or X7R dielectrics are preferred, however, tantalum and electrolytic capacitors are acceptable as well. When using electrolytic
or tantalum capacitors, a small (e.g. 0.1 mF), ceramic capacitors
should also be used and placed as close to the IN pin as possible.

When using tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, the ESR dominates the impedance at the switching frequency, therefore, the

TF6002 / TF6002A
Compensation Components: TF6002 employs current mode
control for easy compensation and fast transient response. System stability and transient response are controlled via COMP
pin. COMP pin is the output of the internal transconductance
error amplifier. A series RC network (C3 and R3 of Figure 1) sets
a pole-zero combination and controls the characteristics of the
control system. The DC gain of the voltage feedback loop is
given by the following equation:
AVDC = RLOAD GCS  AVEA 
VFB
VOUT
where
•
GCS = Current sense transconductance
•
AVEA = Error amplifier voltage gain
The system has two poles of importance. One is due to the compensation capacitor (C3 of Figure 1) and the output resistor of
the error amplifier. The other one is due to output capacitor (C2
of Figure 1) and the load resistor. These poles are located at:
fP1 =
GEA
2πC 3  AVEA
fP 2 =
1
2πC 2 RLOAD
where
•
The C6 may be added to compensate for the ESR of C2. The C6
together with R3 creates another pole which is located at:
fP 3 =
1
2πC 6 R3
The aim of the compensation design is to shape the converter
transfer function to get a desired loop gain. The system crossover frequency where the feedback loop has the unity gain is
important. Lower crossover frequencies result in slower line
and load transient responses, while higher crossover frequencies could cause system to be unstable. As a rule of thumb, the
crossover frequency (fC) below one tenth of the switching frequency is recommended. This is expressed using in the following inequality:
fC <
fS
10
The following steps may be used for optimizing the compensation components:
1. Select the compensation resistor, R3 to set the desired
crossover frequency. The R3 resistor value can be determined using the following equation:
R3 =
2πC 2 fC VOUT

GEA GCS VFB
GEA = Error amplifier transconductance
The system has one zero of importance, due to the compensation capacitor (C3) and the compensation resistor (R3). The zero
is located at:
fZ 1 =
1
2πC 3 R3
The system may also have another zero of importance due to
high output capacitance and ESR of C2 (output capacitor of Figure 1). The zero is located at:
fZ 2 =
March 15, 2011

2πC 2 ESRC 2
2. Select the compensation capacitor C3 to achieve the desired phase margin. For applications with typical inductor
values, setting the compensation zero, f Z1, below one quarter of the crossover frequency provides sufficient phase
margin. The C3 capacitor value can be determined using
the following inequality:
C3 >
4
2πR3 fC
3. Determine if the second compensation capacitor, C6, is
needed. It is needed if the ESR zero (fZ2) of the output capacitor (C2) is located at less than half of the switching frequency as expressed in the following inequality:

TF6002 / TF6002A

>
2 2πC 2 ESRC 2
If the above inequality is valid, add the second compensation
capacitor, C6, to set the third pole, fP3, at the location of the ESR
zero, fZ2. The C6 capacitor value can be determined using the
following equation:
C6 =
C 2 ESRC 2
R3
External Bootstrap Diode: To improve the efficiency of the
regulator, an external bootstrap diode may be added when any
or combination of the following conditions occur in the regulator circuit:
•
The system has a 5V or 3.3V fixed input
•
The power supply generates a 5V or 3.3V output
•
The regulator operates with high duty cycle (>65%)
•
The output voltage is above 12V (VOUT > 12V)
The optimized application circuit is shown in Figure 10. The diode D2 can be a low cost diode such as BAT54 or IN4148.
