DESCRIPTION
The TPS6420x are nonsynchronous step-down
controllers that are ideally suited for systems powered
from a 5-V or 3.3-V bus or for applications powered from
a 1-cell Li-Ion battery or from a 2- to 4-cell NiCd, NiMH, or
alkaline battery. These step-down controllers drive an
external P-channel MOSFET allowing design flexibility. To
achieve highest efficiency over a wide load current range,
this controller uses a minimum on time, minimum off time
control scheme and consumes only 20-µA quiescent
current. The minimum on time of typically 600 ns
(TPS64203) allows the use of small inductors and
capacitors. When disabled, the current consumption is
reduced to less than 1 µA. The TPS6420x is available in
the 6-pin SOT23 (DBV) package and operates over a free
air temperature range of −40°C to 85°C.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Operation
The TPS6420x is a nonsynchronous step-down controller which is operating with a minimum on-time/minimum
off-time control. An external PMOS is turned on until the output voltage reaches its nominal value or the current
limit is exceeded. If the current limit is exceeded, the PMOS is switched off and stays off for the minimum
off-time. After that the PMOS is switched on again. When the nominal output voltage is reached, the PMOS
is switched off and stays off until the output voltage dropped below its nominal value.
Operating Modes
When delivering low or medium output current, the TPS6420x operate in discontinuous mode. With every
switching cycle, the current in the inductor starts at zero, rises to a maximum value and ramps down to zero
again. As soon as the current in the inductor drops to zero, ringing occurs at the resonant frequency of the
inductor and stray capacitance, due to residual energy in the inductor when the diode turns off. Ringing in
discontinuous mode is normal and does not have any influence on efficiency. The ringing does not contain much
energy and can easily be damped by an RC snubber. See the application section for further details.
With high output current, the TPS6420x operate in continuous current mode. In this mode, the inductor current
does not drop to zero within one switching cycle. The output voltage in continuous mode is directly dependant
on the duty cycle of the switch.
Variable Minimum On-Time (TPS64201 to TPS64202 Only)
The minimum on-time of the device is 1.6 µs. At light loads, this would cause a low switching frequency in the
audible range because the energy transferred to the output during the on-time would cause a higher rise in the
output voltage than needed and therefore lead to a long off−time until the output voltage dropped again. To avoid
a switching frequency in the audible range the TPS64201 and TPS64202 can internally reduce the minimum
on time in three steps from 1.6 µs to 800 ns, 400 ns and 200 ns. The on-time is reduced by one step if the
switching frequency dropped to a lower value than 50 kHz. This keeps the frequency above the audio frequency
over a wide load range and also keeps the output voltage ripple low.

SLVS485 − AUGUST 2003
www.ti.com
11
Soft Start
The TPS6420x has an internal soft start circuit that limits the inrush current during start up. This prevents
possible voltage drops of the input voltage in case a battery or a high impedance power source is connected
to the input of the TPS6420x. During soft start the current limit is increased from 25% of its maximum to the
maximum within about 250 µs.
100% Duty Cycle Low Dropout Operation
The TPS6420x offers the lowest possible input to output voltage difference while still maintaining regulation with
the use of the 100% duty cycle mode. In this mode the P-channel switch is constantly turned on. This is
particularly useful in battery powered applications to achieve longest operation time by taking full advantage
of the whole battery voltage range.
Enable
A voltage higher than the EN trip point of 1.3 V up to the input voltage forces the TPS64200 into shutdown. In
shutdown, the power switch, drivers, voltage reference, oscillator, and all other functions are turned off. The
supply current is reduced to less than 1 µA in shutdown. Pulling enable low starts up the TPS64200 with the
softstart as described under the chapter softstart.
Undervoltage Lockout
The undervoltage lockout circuit prevents the device from misoperation at low input voltages. Basically, it
prevents the converter from turning on the external PMOS under undefined conditions.
Current Limit
The ISENSE input is used to set the current limit for the external PMOS. The sense resistor must be connected
between VI and source of the external PMOS. The ISENSE pin is connected to the source of the external
PMOS. The maximum current is calculated by:
I(cur lim) +
V(ISENSE)
RS
(1)
For low cost solutions the rDS(on) of the external PMOS can also be used to set the current limit. In this case
the ISENSE pin is connected to the drain of the PMOS. The current in the PMOS is automatically sampled by
the TPS6420x some 10 ns after the PMOS is turned on. The ISENSE pin should always be connected to either
the source of the PMOS or the drain if an additional sense resistor is used. Otherwise there is no working
overcurrent protection and no soft start in the system. The maximum drain current if the rDS(on) is used as a
sense resistor is calculated by:
I(cur lim) +
V(ISENSE)
rDS(on) (2)
Short-Circuit Protection
With a controller only limited short circuit protection is possible because the temperature of the external
components is not supervised. In an overload condition, the current in the external diode may exceed the
maximum rating. To protect the diode against overcurrent, the off-time of the TPS6420x is increased when the
voltage at the feedback pin is lower than its nominal value. The off-time when the output is shorted (feedback
voltage is zero) is about 4 µs. This allows the current in the external diode to drop until the PMOS is turned on
again and the overcurrent protection switches off the PMOS again. The off-time is directly proportional to the
voltage at feedback.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The basic application circuit for the TPS64200 is shown in Figure 1. External component selection is driven by
the load requirement. It begins with the selection of the current sense resistor R(ISENSE) followed by the output
diode, the inductor L, and the output and input capacitors. The inductor is chosen based on the desired amount
of ripple current and switching frequency. The output capacitor is chosen large enough to meet the required
output ripple and transient requirements. The ESR of the output capacitor is needed for stability of the converter.
Therefore, an output capacitor with a certain amount of ESR is needed for the standard application circuit. See
the application information for more details. The input capacitor must be capable of handling the required RMS
input current.
Setting the Inductor Current Limit
The ISENSE pin is connected to an internal current comparator with a threshold of 120 mV/R(ISENSE). The current
comparator sets the peak inductor current. As the current limit is intended to protect the external PMOS the
limit must not be reached in normal operation. Set the current limit to about 1.3 times the maximum output
current or higher if desired. This takes into account a certain amount of inductor current ripple. The current limit
may also influence the start-up time when the current limit is exceeded during start up.

V(ISENSE), max = 120 mV (4)
Setting the Output Voltage
The output voltage of the TPS64200 to TPS64202 can be set using an external resistor divider. The sum of
R1 and R2 should not exceed 1 MΩ to keep the influence of leakage current into the feedback pin low.

R2 R1 +R2 ǒVO

In some applications, depending on the layout, the capacitance may be too high from FB to GND. In this case,
the internal comparator may not switch fast enough to operate with the minimum on-time or the minimum
off-time given in this data sheet. For such applications a feedforward capacitor (Cff) in the range of 4.7 pF to
47 pF (typical) is added in parallel with R1 to speed up the comparator. Choose a capacitor value that is high
enough that the device turns on the PMOS for its minimum on-time with no load at the output.
Selecting the Input Capacitor
The input capacitor is used to reduce peak currents drawn from the power source and reduces noise and voltage
ripple on the input of the converter, caused by its switching action. Use low ESR tantalum capacitors or
preferably X5R or X7R ceramic capacitors with a voltage rating higher than the maximum supply voltage in the
application. In continuous conduction mode, the input capacitor must handle an rms-current which is given by:
ICin(rms) [IO
VO
VI,min
Ǹ(6)
Select the input capacitor according to the calculated rms-input current requirements and according to the
maximum voltage ripple. Use a minimum value of 10 µF:

For a first approximation use:
L = 10 µH
V(ripple) = 150 mV (verify in the application)
Selecting the Inductor Value
The main parameters when choosing the inductor are current rating and inductance. The inductance mainly
determines the inductor current ripple. The TPS6420x operates with a wide range of inductor values. Values
between 4.7 µH and 47 µH work in most applications. Select an inductor with a current rating exceeding the
limit set by R(ISENSE) or rDS(on). The first step in inductor design is to determine the operating mode of the
TPS64200. The device can either work with minimum-on-time or minimum-off-time, depending on input voltage
and output voltage.

Selecting the External PMOS
An external PMOS must be used for a step-down converter with the TPS64200. The selection criteria for the
PMOS are threshold voltage, rDS(on), gate charge and current and voltage rating. Since the TPS64200 can
operate down to 1.8 V, the external PMOS must have a VGS(th) much lower than that if it is operated with such
a low voltage. As the gate of the PMOS finds the full supply voltage applied to the TPS64200, the PMOS must
be able to handle that voltage at the gate. The drain to source breakdown voltage rating should be at least a
few volts higher than the supply voltage in the application. The rms-current in the PMOS assuming low inductor
current ripple and continuous conduction mode, is:
IPMOS(rms) [IOD
Ǹ+IO
VO
VI
Ǹ(11)
The power dissipated in the PMOS is comprised of conduction losses and switching losses. The conduction
losses are a function of the rms−current in the PMOS and the rDS(on) at a given temperature. They are calculated
using:

Selecting the Output Diode
The output diode conducts in the off phase of the PMOS and carries the full output current. The high switching
frequency demands a high-speed rectifier. Schottky diodes are recommended for best performance. Make sure
that the peak current rating of the diode exceeds the peak current limit set by the sense resistor R(ISENSE) or
rDS(on). Select a Schottky diode with a low reverse leakage current to avoid an increased supply current. The
average current in the diode in continuous conduction mode, assuming low inductor current ripple, is:

Selecting the Output Capacitor
The value of the output capacitor depends on the output voltage ripple requirements as well as the maximum
voltage deviation during a load transient. The TPS6420x require a certain ESR value for proper operation. Low
ESR tantalum capacitors or PosCap work best in the application. A ceramic capacitor with up 1 µF may be used
in parallel for filtering short spikes. The output voltage ripple is a function of both the output capacitance and
the ESR value of the capacitor. For a switching frequency which is used with the TPS6420x, the voltage ripple
is typically between 90% and 95% due to the ESR value.

Output Voltage Ripple
Output voltage ripple causes the output voltage to be higher or lower than set by the resistor divider at the
feedback pin. If the application runs with minimum on-time, the ripple (half of the peak-to-peak value) adds to
the output voltage. In an application which runs with minimum off-time, the output voltage is lower by the amount
of ripple (half of the peak-to-peak value) at the output.
Snubber Design
For low output current, the TPS6420x work in discontinuous current mode. When the current in the inductor
drops to zero, the inductor and parasitic capacitance form a resonant circuit, which causes oscillations when
both, diode and PMOS do not conduct at the end of each switching cycle. The oscillation can easily be damped
by a RC-snubber. The first step in the snubber design is to measure the oscillation frequency of the sine wave.
Then, a capacitor has to be connected in parallel to the Schottky diode which causes the frequency to drop to
half of its original value. The resistor is selected for optimum transient response (aperiodic).

L − inductance used (17)
Selecting the Right Device for the Application
The TPS6420x step-down controllers either operate with a fixed on-time or a fixed off-time control. It mainly
depends on the input voltage to output voltage ratio if the switching frequency is determined by the
minimum-on-time or the minimum-off-time. To select the right device for an application see the table below:

DESIGN EXAMPLE FOR AN APPLICATION USING A LI-ION CELL (3.3 V TO 4.2 V) TO
GENERATE 3.3 V/500 mA
1. Calculate the sense resistor for the current limit:
R(ISENSE) v
V(ISENSE) min
1.3 IO+90 mV
1.3 0.5 A +138 mW(18)
Choose the next lower standard value : R(ISENSE) = 120 mΩ. Verify the inductor current ripple after the inductor
has been determined in step 5.
If the rDS(on) of the PMOS is used to sense the inductor current, a PMOS with less than 138 mΩ must be used
for the application.
2. Calculate the resistors for the output voltage divider using VO = 3.3 V and VFB = 1.21 V
R1 +R2 ǒVO
VFBǓ–R2 +1.72 R2 (19)
Choose R2 = 360 kΩ, and then get R1 = 619 kΩ. Select the next standard value: R1 = 620 kΩ
3. Select the external PMOS
For a Li-Ion to 3.3-V conversion, the minimum input voltage is 3.3 V. Therefore, the converter runs in 100%
mode (duty cycle=1) and the maximum PMOS current is equal to the output current.
I(PMOS) +IO+0.5 A (20)
The Si2301ADS is selected for this application because it meets the requirements when an external sense
resistor is used. Otherwise a PMOS with less rDS(on) must be selected.
Verify the maximum power dissipation of the PMOS using:
P(cond) +ǒIOǓ2
rDS(on) +(0.5 A)2 0.19 W+48 mW (21)
4. Select the external diode
For the Schottky diode, the worst case current is at high input voltage (4.2 V for a Li-Ion cell).
I(diode)(Avg) [IOǒ1– VO
VIǓ+IOǒ1–3.3 V
4.2 VǓ+0.11 A (22)
The MBR0530T1 is selected because it meets the voltage and current requirements. The forward voltage is
about 0.3 V. Do not use a Schottky diode which is much larger than required as it also typically has more leakage
current and capacitance which reduces efficiency.
5. Calculate the inductor value.
If the output voltage is close to the input voltage, the switching frequency is determined by the minimum off-time.
Therefore, the TPS64202 is used for the maximum switching frequency possible. Allow an inductor ripple
current of 0.3 × IO for the application. For the inductor, a series resistance of 100 mΩ is assumed.
For minimum-off-time, the inductor value is:
L+ǒVO)V(SCHOTTKY) )RRL IOǓ toff,min
DI+(3.3 V )0.3 V )0.05 V) 0.3 ms
0.3 0.5 A +7.3 mH
(23)
For a low inductor current ripple, select the next available larger inductor with L = 10 µH. This provides an
inductor ripple current of 110 mA (peak-to-peak).

The TPS6420x can be used for an inverter. Only one additional operational amplifier is required for this
application. When the PMOS is switched on, the current in the inductor ramps up to its maximum, set by Rs.
Then the PMOS is switched off, the energy stored in the inductor is transferred to the output. The output voltage

Figure 27. Application Using a Ceramic Output Capacitor
The control scheme of the TPS6420x usually requires an output capacitor with some tens of milliohms of ESR
for stability, which is usually the case for tantalum capacitors. This application circuit above also works with
ceramic capacitors. Resistor R1b is used to add an additional control signal to the feedback loop, which is
coupled into the FB pin. The circuit works best with R1b = 2 …4 x R1a. If the resistance of R1b is too low
compared to R1a, the more load regulation the output voltage shows, but stability is best. The advantage of
this circuit is a very low output voltage ripple and small size. The gate resistor shown can be used in every
application. It minimizes switching noise of the converter and, therefore, increases stability and provides lower
output voltage ripple. However, it decreases efficiency slightly because the rise and fall time, and the associated
losses are larger.
