DESCRIPTION
The PTH08000W is a highly integrated, low-cost switching regulator module that delivers up to 2.25 A of output
current. The PTH08000W sources output current at a much higher efficiency than a TO-220 linear regulator IC,
eliminating the need for a heatsink. The small size (0.75 inch × 0.5 inch) and flexible operation creates value for
a variety of applications.
The input voltage range of the PTH08000W is 4.5 V to 14 V, allowing operation from either a 5-V or 12-V input
bus. Using state-of-the-art switched-mode power-conversion technology, the PTH08000W can step down to
voltages as low as 0.9 V from a 5-V input bus, with less than 1 W of power dissipation. The output voltage can
be adjusted to any voltage over the range, 0.9 V to 5.5 V, using a single external resistor. This series includes
Auto-Track™ sequencing. This feature simplifies the task of supply voltage sequencing in a power system by
enabling modules to track each other, or any external voltage, during power up and power down. Operating
features include an undervoltage lockout (UVLO), on/off inhibit, overcurrent protection, and overtemperature
protection. Target applications include telecommunications, test and measurement applications, and high-end
consumer products. This product is available in both through-hole and surface-mount package options, including
tape and reel. The PTH08000W is compatible with TI's roadmap for RoHS and lead-free compliance.

The minimum input voltage is 4.5 V or (VO + 1.1) V, whichever is greater.
The set-point voltage tolerance is affected by the tolerance and stability of RSET. The stated limit is unconditionally met if RSET has a
tolerance of 1% with 100 ppm/°C or better temperature stability.
This control pin has an internal pullup to the input voltage VI. If it is left open-circuit, the module operates when input power is applied. A
small, low-leakage (< 100 nA) metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) is recommended for control. See the
Application Information for further guidance.
An external 100-µF electrolytic capacitor is required across the input (VI and GND) for proper operation. Locate the capacitor close to
the module.
An external output capacitor is not required for proper operation. Adding 100 µF of distributed capacitance at the load improves the
transient response.
This is the calculated maximum capacitance. The minimum ESR limitation often results in a lower value. See the capacitor application
information for further guidance.
This is the minimum ESR for all the electrolytic (nonceramic) capacitance. Use 14 mΩ as the minimum when calculating the total
equivalent series resistance (ESR) using the maximum ESR values specified by the capacitor manufacturer.

This is the common ground connection for the VI and VO power connections. It is also the 0-VDC reference for

DESCRIPTION
I
This is an analog control input that enables the output voltage to follow an external voltage. This pin becomes
active typically 20 ms after the input voltage has been applied, and allows direct control of the output voltage
from 0 V up to the nominal set-point voltage. Within this range, the output voltage follows the voltage at the
Track pin on a volt-for-volt basis. When the control voltage is raised above this range, the module regulates at
its set-point voltage. The feature allows the output voltage to rise simultaneously with other modules powered
from the same input bus. If unused, this input should be connected to VI.
NOTE: Due to the undervoltage lockout feature, the output of the module cannot follow its own input voltage
during power up. For more information, consult the related application note literature number SLTA054.
VI

I
The positive input voltage power node to the module, which is referenced to common GND.
Inhibit
4
I
The Inhibit pin is an open-collector/drain-negative logic input that is referenced to GND. Applying a low-level
ground signal to this input disables the module's output. When the Inhibit control is active, the input current
drawn by the regulator is significantly reduced. If the Inhibit pin is left open-circuit, the module produces an
output voltage whenever a valid input source is applied.
VO Adjust
5
I
A 1% resistor must be connected between this pin and GND (pin 1) to set the output voltage of the module
higher than 0.9 V. If left open-circuit, the output voltage defaults to this value. The temperature stability of the
resistor should be 100 ppm/°C (or better). The set-point range is from 0.9 V to 5.5 V. The electrical
specification table gives the standard resistor value for a number of common output voltages. See the
application information for further guidance.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Adjusting the Output Voltage of the PTH08000W Wide-Output Adjust Power Modules
The VO Adjust control (pin 5) sets the output voltage of the PTH08000W product. The adjustment range is from
0.9 V to 5.5 V. The adjustment method requires the addition of a single external resistor, RSET, that must be
connected directly between the VO Adjust and GND (pin 1). Table 1 gives the standard external resistor for a
number of common bus voltages, along with the actual voltage the resistance produces.
For other output voltages, the value of the required resistor can either be calculated using the following formula,
or simply selected from the range of values given in Table 2. Figure 9 shows the placement of the required
resistor.

CAPACITOR RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PTH08000W WIDE-OUTPUT ADJUST
POWER MODULES
Input Capacitor
The minimum required input capacitor is 100 µF of capacitance. When VO > 3.4 V, the 100-µF electrolytic
capacitance must be rated for 650-mArms ripple current . For VO < 3.4 V, the ripple current rating must be at
least 500 mArms. The ripple current rating of electrolytic capacitors is a major consideration when they are used
at the input.
When specifying regular tantalum capacitors for use at the input, a minimum voltage rating of 2 × (maximum dc
voltage + ac ripple) is highly recommended. This is standard practice to ensure reliability. Polymer-tantalum
capacitors are not affected by this requirement.
For improved ripple reduction on the input bus, ceramic capacitors can also be added to complement the
required electrolytic capacitance.
Output Capacitors (Optional)
No output capacitance is required for normal operation. However, applications with load transients (sudden
changes in load current) can benefit by adding external output capacitance. A 100-µF electrolytic or ceramic
capacitor can be used to improve transient response. Adding a 100-µF nonceramic capacitor allows the module
to meet its transient response specification. A high-quality computer-grade electrolytic capacitor should be
adequate.
Electrolytic capacitors should be located close to the load circuit. These capacitors provide decoupling over the
frequency range, 2 kHz to 150 kHz. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are suitable for ambient temperatures
above 0°C. For operation below 0°C, tantalum or Os-Con-type capacitors are recommended. When using one or
more nonceramic capacitors, the calculated equivalent ESR should be no lower than 10 mΩ (14 mΩ using the
manufacturer's maximum ESR for a single capacitor). A list of preferred low-ESR-type capacitors are identified in
Table 3.
Ceramic Capacitors
Above 150 kHz, the performance of aluminum electrolytic capacitors becomes less effective. To further improve
the reflected input ripple current, or the output transient response, multilayer ceramic capacitors must be added.
Ceramic capacitors have low ESR and their resonant frequency is higher than the bandwidth of the regulator.
When placed at the output, their combined ESR is not critical as long as the total value of ceramic capacitance
does not exceed 220 µF. Also, to prevent the formation of local resonances, do not exceed the maximum
number of capacitors specified in the capacitor table.
Tantalum Capacitors
Additional tantalum-type capacitors can be used at both the input and output, and are recommended for
applications where the ambient operating temperature can be less than 0°C. The AVX TPS, Sprague
593D/594/595, and Kemet T495/T510/T520 capacitors series are suggested over many other tantalum types due
to their rated surge, power dissipation, and ripple current capability. As a caution, many general-purpose
tantalum capacitors have considerably higher ESR and lower ripple current capability. These capacitors are also
less reliable as they have lower power dissipation capability and surge current ratings. Tantalum capacitors that
do not have a stated ESR or surge current rating are not recommended for power applications. When specifying
Os-Con and polymer-tantalum capacitors for the output, the minimum ESR limit is encountered well before the
maximum capacitance value is reached.
Capacitor Table
The capacitor table, Table 3, identifies the characteristics of capacitors from a number of vendors with
acceptable ESR and ripple current (rms) ratings. The recommended number of capacitors required at both the
input and output buses is identified for each capacitor type. This is not an extensive capacitor list. Capacitors
from other vendors are available with comparable specifications. Those listed are for guidance. The rms rating
and ESR (at 100 kHz) are critical parameters necessary to ensure both optimum regulator performance and long
capacitor life.

Designing for Load Transients
The transient response of the dc/dc converter has been characterized using a load transient with a di/dt of
1 A/µs. The typical voltage deviation for this load transient is given in the data-sheet specification table using the
optional value of output capacitance. As the di/dt of a transient is increased, the response of a converter's
regulation circuit ultimately depends on its output capacitor decoupling network. This is an inherent limitation with
any dc/dc converter once the speed of the transient exceeds its bandwidth capability. If the target application
specifies a higher di/dt or lower voltage deviation, the requirement can only be met with additional output
capacitor decoupling. In these cases, special attention must be paid to the type, value, and ESR of the
capacitors selected.
If the transient performance requirements exceed those specified in the data sheet, the selection of output
capacitors becomes more important. Review the minimum ESR in the characteristic data sheet for details on the
capacitance maximum.

Features of the PTH/PTV Family of Nonisolated, Wide-Output Adjustable Power Modules
POLA™ Compatibility
The PTH/PTV family of nonisolated, wide-output adjustable power modules from Texas Instruments are
optimized for applications that require a flexible, high-performance module that is small in size. Each of these
products are POLA™ compatible. POLA-compatible products are produced by a number of manufacturers, and
offer customers advanced, nonisolated modules with the same footprint and form factor. POLA parts are also
ensured to be interoperable, thereby providing customers with true second-source availability.
Soft-Start Power Up
The Auto-Track feature allows the power up of multiple PTH/PTV modules to be directly controlled from the
Track pin. However, in a stand-alone configuration, or when the Auto-Track feature is not being used, the Track
pin should be directly connected to the input voltage, VI (see Figure 10).

Figure 10. Power-Up Application Circuit
When the Track pin is connected to the input voltage, the Auto-Track function is permanently disengaged. This
allows the module to power up entirely under the control of its internal soft-start circuitry. When power up is
under soft-start control, the output voltage rises to the set-point at a quicker and more linear rate.

PTH08000W

SLTS248 – JUNE 2005
From the moment a valid input voltage is applied, the soft-start control introduces a short time delay (typically
less than 5 ms) before allowing the output voltage to rise. The output then progressively rises to the module
set-point voltage. Figure 11 shows the soft-start power-up characteristic of the PTH0800W, operating from a
12-V input bus and configured for a 3.3-V output. The waveforms were measured with a 2-A resistive load and
the Auto-Track feature disabled. The initial rise in input current when the input voltage first starts to rise is the
charge current drawn by the input capacitors. Power up is complete within 25 ms.
Current Limit Protection
The PTH08000 modules protect against load faults with an output overcurrent trip. Under a load fault condition,
the output current cannot exceed the current limit value. Attempting to draw current that exceeds the current limit
value causes the output voltage to enter into a hiccup mode of operation, whereby the module continues in a
cycle of successive shutdown and power up until the load fault is removed. On removal of the fault, the output
voltage promptly recovers.
Thermal Shutdown
Thermal shutdown protects the module internal circuitry against excessively high temperatures. A rise in
temperature may be the result of a drop in airflow, a high ambient temperature, or a higher than normal output
current. If the junction temperature of the internal components exceeds 165°C, the module shuts down. This
reduces the output voltage to zero. The module starts up automatically, by initiating a soft-start power up when
the sensed temperature decreases 10°C below the thermal shutdown trip-point.
Output On/Off Inhibit
For applications requiring output voltage on/off control, the PTH08000 power module incorporates an output
on/off Inhibit control (pin 4). The inhibit feature can be used wherever there is a requirement for the output
voltage from the regulator to be turned off.
The power module functions normally when the Inhibit pin is left open-circuit, providing a regulated output
whenever a valid source voltage is connected to VI with respect to GND.
Figure 12 shows the typical application of the inhibit function. Note the discrete transistor (Q1). The Inhibit control
has its own internal pullup to 3 V. An open-collector or open-drain device is recommended to control this input.
Turning Q1 on applies a low voltage to the Inhibit control pin and disables the output of the module. If Q1 is then
turned off, the module executes a soft-start power-up sequence. A regulated output voltage is produced within
20 ms. Figure 13 shows the typical rise in the output voltage, following the turn off of Q1. The turn off of Q1
corresponds to the rise in the waveform, Q1 VDS. The waveforms were measured with a 2-A resistive load.

Auto-Track™ Function
The Auto-Track function is unique to the PTH/PTV family, and is available with all POLA products. Auto-Track
was designed to simplify the amount of circuitry required to make the output voltage from each module power up
and power down in sequence. The sequencing of two or more supply voltages during power up is a common
requirement for complex mixed-signal applications that use dual-voltage VLSI ICs such as the TMS320™ DSP
family, microprocessors, and ASICs.
How Auto-Track™ Works
Auto-Track works by forcing the module output voltage to follow a voltage presented at the Track control pin (1).
This control range is limited to between 0 V and the module set-point voltage. Once the track-pin voltage is
raised above the set-point voltage, the module output remains at its set-point (2). As an example, if the Track pin
of a 2.5-V regulator is at 1 V, the regulated output is 1 V. If the voltage at the Track pin rises to 3 V, the regulated
output does not go higher than 2.5 V.
When under Auto-Track control, the regulated output from the module follows the voltage at its Track pin on a
volt-for-volt basis. By connecting the Track pin of a number of these modules together, the output voltages follow
a common signal during power up and power down. The control signal can be an externally generated master
ramp waveform, or the output voltage from another power supply circuit (3). For convenience, the Track input
incorporates an internal RC-charge circuit. This operates off the module input voltage to produce a suitable rising
waveform at power up.

Typical Application
The basic implementation of Auto-Track allows for simultaneous voltage sequencing of a number of Auto-Track
compliant modules. Connecting the Track inputs of two or more modules forces their track input to follow the
same collective RC-ramp waveform, and allows their power-up sequence to be coordinated from a common
Track control signal. This can be an open-collector (or open-drain) device, such as a power-up reset voltage
supervisor IC. See U3 in Figure 14.
To coordinate a power-up sequence, the Track control must first be pulled to ground potential. This should be
done at or before input power is applied to the modules. The ground signal should be maintained for at least
20 ms after input power has been applied. This brief period gives the modules time to complete their internal
soft-start initialization (4), enabling them to produce an output voltage. A low-cost supply voltage supervisor IC,
that includes a built-in time delay, is an ideal component for automatically controlling the Track inputs at power
up.
Figure 14 shows how the TPS3808G50 supply voltage supervisor IC (U3) can be used to coordinate the
sequenced power up of two 5-V input Auto-Track modules. The output of the TPS3808G50 supervisor becomes
active above an input voltage of 0.8 V, enabling it to assert a ground signal to the common track control well
before the input voltage has reached the module's undervoltage lockout threshold. The ground signal is
maintained until approximately 27 ms after the input voltage has risen above U3's voltage threshold, which is
4.65 V. The 27-ms time period is controlled by the capacitor C3. The value of 4700 pF provides sufficient time
delay for the modules to complete their internal soft-start initialization. The output voltage of each module
remains at zero until the track control voltage is allowed to rise. When U3 removes the ground signal, the track
control voltage automatically rises. This causes the output voltage of each module to rise simultaneously with the
other modules, until each reaches its respective set-point voltage.
Figure 15 shows the output voltage waveforms from the circuit of Figure 14 after input voltage is applied to the
circuit. The waveforms, VO1 and VO2, represent the output voltages from the two power modules, U1 (3.3 V) and
U2 (2.5 V), respectively. VO1 and VO2 are shown rising together to produce the desired simultaneous power-up
characteristic.
The same circuit also provides a power-down sequence. When the input voltage falls below U3's voltage
threshold, the ground signal is re-applied to the common track control. This pulls the track inputs to zero volts,
forcing the output of each module to follow. Power down is normally complete before the input voltage has fallen
below the modules' undervoltage lockout. This is an important constraint. Once the modules recognize that an
input voltage is no longer present, their outputs can no longer follow the voltage applied at their track input.
During a power-down sequence, the fall in the output voltage from the modules is limited by the Auto-Track slew
rate capability.

Notes on Use of Auto-Track™
1. The Track pin voltage must be allowed to rise above the module set-point voltage before the module
regulates at its adjusted set-point voltage.
2. The Auto-Track function tracks almost any voltage ramp during power up, and is compatible with ramp
speeds of up to 1 V/ms.
3. The absolute maximum voltage that may be applied to the Track pin is the input voltage VI.
4. The module cannot follow a voltage at its track control input until it has completed its soft-start initialization.
This takes about 20 ms from the time that a valid voltage has been applied to its input. During this period, it
is recommended that the Track pin be held at ground potential.
5. The Auto-Track function is disabled by connecting the Track pin to the input voltage (VI). When Auto-Track is
disabled, the output voltage rises at a quicker and more linear rate after input power has been applied.
