Output Voltage Setting

The output voltage is programmed by the voltage-divider resistors, RFB_HS and RFB_LS. Connect RFB_HS between the FB pin and the positive node of the load, and connect RFB_LS between the FB pin and VSNS– pin. The recommended RFB_LS value is 10 kΩ, ranging from 1 kΩ to 20 kΩ. Determine RFB_HS by using Equation 1.

The FB accuracy is determined by two elements. The first element is the accuracy of the internal 600-mV reference, which will be applied to the SS/REFIN pin unless an external VREF is applied. The TPS548B28 device offers ±0.5% VINTREF accuracy from a 0°C to 85°C temperature range, and ±1.0% VINTREF accuracy from –40°C to 125°C temperature range. The second element is the SS/REFIN-to-FB accuracy which tells how accurately the control loop regulates FB node to SS/REFIN pin. The TPS548B28 device offers ±0.6% SS/REFIN-to-FB accuracy from –40°C to 125°C temperature range. For example, when operating from a 0°C to 85°C temperature range, the total FB accuracy is ±1.1% which includes the impact from chip junction temperature and also the variation from part to part.

To improve the overall VOUT accuracy, using a ±1% accuracy or better resistor for the FB voltage divider is highly recommended.

Regardless of remote sensing or single-end sensing connection, the FB voltage divider, RFB_HS and RFB_LS, must be always placed as close as possible to the device.
