DESCRIPTION
As members of the SWIFT family of dc/dc regulators,
the TPS54311, TPS54312, TPS54313, TPS54314,
TPS54315 and TPS54316 low-input-voltage highoutput-current synchronous-buck PWM converters
integrate all required active components. Included on
the substrate with the listed features are a true, high
performance, voltage error amplifier that provides fast
response under transient conditions; an undervoltagelockout circuit to prevent start-up until the input voltage
reaches 3 V; an internally and externally set slow-start
circuit to limit in-rush currents; and a power good output
useful for processor/logic reset, fault signaling and
supply sequencing.
The TPS54311-6 devices are available in a thermally
enhanced 20-pin TSSOP (PWP) PowerPAD
package, which eliminates bulky heatsinks. TI provides
evaluation modules and the SWIFT designer software
tool to aid in quickly achieving high-performance power
supply designs to meet aggressive equipment
development cycles.

This device contains circuits to protect its inputs and outputs against damage due to high static voltages or electrostatic fields. These
circuits have been qualified to protect this device against electrostatic discharges (ESD) of up to 2 kV according to MIL-STD-883C,
Method 3015; however, it is advised that precautions should be taken to avoid application of any voltage higher than maximum-rated
voltages to these high-impedance circuits. During storage or handling, the device leads should be shorted together or the device
should be placed in conductive foam. In a circuit, unused inputs should always be connected to an appropriated logic voltage level,
preferably either VCC or ground. Specific guidelines for handling devices of this type are contained in the publication Guidelines for
Handling Electrostatic-Discharge-Sensitive (ESDS) Devices and Assemblies available from Texas Instruments.

detailed description
undervoltage lock out (UVLO)
An under voltage lockout circuit to keep the device disabled when the input voltage (VIN) is insufficient. During
power up, internal circuits are held inactive until VIN exceeds the nominal UVLO threshold voltage of 2.95 V.
Once the UVLO start threshold is reached, device start-up begins. The device operates until VIN falls below
the nominal UVLO stop threshold of 2.8 V. Hysteresis in the UVLO comparator, and a 2.5 µs rising and falling
edge deglitch circuit reduce the likelihood of shutting the device down due to noise on VIN.
slow-start/enable (SS/ENA)
The slow-start/enable pin provides two functions. First, the pin acts as an enable (shutdown) control by keeping
the device turned off until the voltage exceeds the start threshold voltage of approximately 1.2 V. When SS/ENA
exceeds the enable threshold, device start-up begins. The reference voltage fed to the error amplifier is linearly
ramped up from 0 V to 0.891 V in 3.35 ms. Similarly, the converter output voltage reaches regulation in
approximately 3.35 ms. Voltage hysteresis and a 2.5 µs falling edge deglitch circuit reduce the likelihood of
triggering the enable due to noise.

SLVS416 – FEBRUARY 2002
slow-start/enable (SS/ENA) (continued)
The second function of the SS/ENA pin provides an external means of extending the slow-start time with a
low-value capacitor connected between SS/ENA and AGND. Adding a capacitor to the SS/ENA pin has two
effects on start-up. First, a delay occurs between release of the SS/ENA pin and start-up of the output. The delay
is proportional to the slow-start capacitor value and lasts until the SS/ENA pin reaches the enable threshold.
The start-up delay is approximately:
t +C
d
(SS)
VǓ
ǒ1.2
5 mA
(1)
Second, as the output becomes active, a brief ramp-up at the internal slow-start rate may be observed before
the externally set slow-start rate takes control and the output rises at a rate proportional to the slow-start
capacitor. The slow-start time set by the capacitor is approximately:
t
(SS)
+C
(SS)
VǓ
ǒ0.7
5 mA
(2)
The actual slow-start time is likely to be less than the above approximation due to the brief ramp-up at the internal
rate.
VBIAS regulator (VBIAS)
The VBIAS regulator provides internal analog and digital blocks with a stable supply voltage over variations in
junction temperature and input voltage. A high quality, low-ESR, ceramic bypass capacitor is required on the
VBIAS pin. X7R or X5R grade dielectrics are recommended because their values are more stable over
temperature. The bypass capacitor should be placed close to the VBIAS pin and returned to AGND. External
loading on VBIAS is allowed, with the caution that internal circuits require a minimum VBIAS of 2.70 V, and
external loads on VBIAS with ac or digital switching noise may degrade performance. The VBIAS pin may be
useful as a reference voltage for external circuits.
voltage reference
The voltage reference system produces a precise, temperature stable voltage from a bandgap circuit. A scaling
amplifier and DAC are then used to produce the reference voltages for each of the fixed output devices
oscillator and PWM ramp
The oscillator frequency can be set to internally fixed values of 350 kHz or 550 kHz using the FSEL pin as a
static digital input. If a different frequency of operation is required for the application, the oscillator frequency
can be externally adjusted from 280 to 700 kHz by connecting a resistor from the RT pin to AGND and floating
the FSEL pin. The switching frequency is approximated by the following equation, where R is the resistance
from RT to AGND:

detailed description (continued)
error amplifier
The high performance, wide bandwidth, voltage error amplifier is gain limited to provide internal compensation
of the control loop. The user is given limited flexibility in choosing output L and C filter components. Inductance
values of 4.7 µH to 10 µH are typical and available from several vendors. The resulting designs exhibit good
noise and ripple characteristics, along with exceptional transient response. Transient recovery times are
typically in the range of 10 to 20 µs.
PWM control
Signals from the error amplifier, oscillator and current limit circuit are processed by the PWM control logic.
Referring to the internal block diagram, the control logic includes the PWM comparator, OR gate, PWM latch,
and portions of the adaptive dead–time and control logic block. During steady-state operation below the current
limit threshold, the PWM comparator output and oscillator pulse train alternately reset and set the PWM latch.
Once the PWM latch is reset, the low-side FET remains on for a minimum duration set by the oscillator pulse
width. During this period, the PWM ramp discharges rapidly to its valley voltage. When the ramp begins to
charge back up, the low-side FET turns off and high-side FET turns on. As the PWM ramp voltage exceeds the
error amplifier output voltage, the PWM comparator resets the latch, thus turning off the high-side FET and
turning on the low-side FET. The low-side FET remains on until the next oscillator pulse discharges the PWM
ramp.
During transient conditions, the error amplifier output could be below the PWM ramp valley voltage or above
the PWM peak voltage. If the error amplifier is high, the PWM latch is never reset and the high-side FET remains
on until the oscillator pulse signals the control logic to turn the high-side FET off and the low-side FET on. The
device operates at its maximum duty cycle until the output voltage rises to the regulation set-point, setting
VSENSE to approximately the same voltage as VREF. If the error amplifier output is low, the PWM latch is
continually reset and the high-side FET does not turn on. The low-side FET remains on until the VSENSE
voltage decreases to a range that allows the PWM comparator to change states. The TPS54611–TPS54616
devices are capable of sinking current continuously until the output reaches the regulation set-point.
If the current limit comparator trips for longer than 100 ns, the PWM latch resets before the PWM ramp exceeds
the error amplifier output. The high-side FET turns off and low-side FET turns on to decrease the energy in the
output inductor and consequently the output current. This process is repeated each cycle in which the current
limit comparator is tripped.
dead-time control and MOSFET drivers
Adaptive dead-time control prevents shoot-through current from flowing in both N-channel power MOSFETs
during the switching transitions by actively controlling the turnon times of the MOSFET drivers. The high-side
driver does not turn on until the voltage at the gate of the low-side FET is below 2 V. While the low-side driver
does not turn on until the voltage at the gate of the high-side MOSFET is below 2 V. The high-side and low-side
drivers are designed with 300-mA source and sink capability to quickly drive the power MOSFETs gates. The
low-side driver is supplied from VIN, while the high-side drive is supplied from the BOOT pin. A bootstrap circuit
uses an external BOOT capacitor and an internal 2.5 Ω bootstrap switch connected between the VIN and BOOT
pins. The integrated bootstrap switch improves drive efficiency and reduces external component count.
overcurrent protection
The cycle by cycle current limiting is achieved by sensing the current flowing through the high-side MOSFET
and a differential amplifier with preset overcurrent threshold. The high side MOSFET is turned off within 200
ns of reaching the current limit threshold. A 100-ns leading edge blanking circuit prevents false tripping of current
limit. Current limit detection occurs only when current flows from VIN to PH when sourcing current to the output
filter. Load protection during current sink operation is provided by thermal shutdown.

detailed description (continued)
thermal shutdown
The device uses the thermal shutdown to turn off the power MOSFETs and disable the controller if the junction
temperature exceeds 150°C. The device is released from shutdown when the junction temperature decreases
to 10°C below the thermal shutdown trip point, and will start up under control of the slow-start circuit. Thermal
shutdown provides protection when an overload condition is sustained for several milliseconds. With a
persistent fault condition, the device will cycle continuously: starting up by control of the soft-start circuit, heating
up due to the fault, and then shutting down upon reaching the thermal shutdown trip point.
power good (PWRGD)
The power good circuit monitors for under voltage conditions on VSENSE. If the voltage on VSENSE is 10%
below the reference voltage, the open-drain PWRGD output is pulled low. PWRGD is also pulled low if VIN is
less than the UVLO threshold or SS/ENA is low, or thermal shutdown is asserted. When VIN = UVLO threshold,
SS/ENA = enable threshold, and VSENSE > 90% of Vref, the open drain output of the PWRGD pin is high. A
hysteresis voltage equal to 3% of Vref and a 35 µs falling edge deglitch circuit prevent tripping of the power good
comparator due to high frequency noise.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Figure 10 shows the schematic diagram for a typical TPS54314 application. The TPS54314 (U1) can provide
up to 3 A of output current at a nominal output voltage of 1.8 V. For proper thermal performance, the power pad
underneath the integrated circuit TPS54314 needs to be soldered well to the printed-circuit board.

input voltage
The input to the circuit is a nominal 5 VDC, applied at J1. The optional input filter (C2) is a 220–uF POSCAP
capacitor, with a maximum allowable ripple current of 3 A. C8 is the decoupling capacitor for the TPS54314 and
must be located as close to the device as possible.
feedback circuit
The output voltage of the converter is fed directly into the VSENSE pin of the TPS54314. The TPS54314 is
internally compensated to provide stability of the output under varying line and load conditions.
operating frequency
In the application circuit, a 700 kHz operating frequency is selected by leaving FSEL open and connecting a
71.5 kΩ resistor between the RT pin and AGND. Different operating frequencies may be selected by varying
the value of R3 using equation 4:
R+
500 kHz
Switching Frequency
100 kW
(4)
Alternately, preset operating frequencies of 350 kHz or 550 kHz my be selected by leaving RT open and
connecting the FSEL pin to AGND or Vin respectively.
output filter
The output filter is composed of a 5.2 µH inductor and 470 µF capacitor. The inductor is a low dc
resistance(16-mΩ) type, Sumida CDRH104R–5R2. The capacitor used is a 4-V POSCAP with a maximum ESR
of 40 mΩ. The output filter components work with the internal compensation network to provide a stable closed
loop response for the converter.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
grounding and PowerPAD layout
The TPS54311–16 have two internal grounds (analog and power). Inside the TPS54311–16, the analog ground
ties to all of the noise sensitive signals, while the power ground ties to the noisier power signals. The PowerPAD
must be connected directly to AGND. Noise injected between the two grounds can degrade the performance
of the TPS54311–16, particularly at higher output currents. However, ground noise on an analog ground plane
can also cause problems with some of the control and bias signals. For these reasons, separate analog and
power ground planes are recommended. These two planes should tie together directly at the IC to reduce noise
between the two grounds. The only components that should tie directly to the power ground plane are the input
capacitor, the output capacitor, the input voltage decoupling capacitor, and the PGND pins of the TPS54311–16.
The layout of the TPS54314 evaluation module is representative of a recommended layout for a 4-layer board.
Documentation for the TPS54314 evaluation module can be found on the Texas Instruments web site under
the TPS54314 product folder and in the application note, TI literature number SLVA111.
layout considerations for thermal performance
For operation at full rated load current, the analog ground plane must provide adequate heat dissipating area.
A 3 inch by 3 inch plane of 1 ounce copper is recommended, though not mandatory, depending on ambient
temperature and airflow. Most applications have larger areas of internal ground plane available, and the
PowerPAD should be connected to the largest area available. Additional areas on the top or bottom layers also
help dissipate heat, and any area available should be used when 3 A or greater operation is desired. Connection
from the exposed area of the PowerPAD to the analog ground plane layer should be made using 0.013 inch
diameter vias to avoid solder wicking through the vias. Six vias should be in the PowerPAD area with four
additional vias located under the device package. The size of the vias under the package, but not in the exposed
thermal pad area, can be increased to 0.018. Additional vias beyond the ten recommended that enhance
thermal performance should be included in areas not under the device package.
