PRODUCTION DATA
The TPS5430-Q1 is a 3-A, step-down (buck) regulator with an integrated high-side n-channel MOSFET. The TPS5430-Q1 is intended to operate from power rails up to 36 V. This device implements constant-frequency voltage-mode control with voltage feed forward for improved line regulation and line transient response. Internal compensation reduces design complexity and external component count.
The integrated 100-mΩ high-side MOSFET supports high-efficiency power-supply designs capable of delivering 3-A of continuous current to a load. The gate-drive bias voltage for the integrated high-side MOSFET is supplied by a bootstrap capacitor connected from the BOOT to PH pins. The device reduces the external component count by integrating the bootstrap recharge diode.
The TPS5430-Q1 has a default input start-up voltage of 5.3-V typical. The ENA pin can be used to disable the device, reducing the supply current to 15-μA typical. An internal pullup current source enables operation when the ENA pin is floating. The device includes an internal slow-start circuit that slows the output rise time during start-up to reduce in rush current and output voltage overshoot. The minimum output voltage is the internal 1.221-V feedback reference. Output overvoltage transients are minimized by an Overvoltage Protection (OVP) comparator. When the OVP comparator is activated, the high-side MOSFET is turned off and remains off until the output voltage is less than 112.5% of the desired output voltage.
Internal cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection limits the peak current in the integrated high-side MOSFET. For continuous overcurrent fault conditions the device enters hiccup mode overcurrent limiting. Thermal protection protects the device from overheating.
