8.3.5 Switching Frequency Setting

The TPS61379-Q1 uses a fixed frequency control scheme. The switching frequency can be programmed between 200 kHz and 2.2 MHz using a resistor from the FREQ pin to GND. The resistor must be connected when the oscillator is synchronized by an external clock. The resistance is defined by Equation 1.

Equation 1. GUID-860EF085-9FF7-40AB-A843-BE444A7BC585-low.gif

where

  • RFREQ is the resistance between the FREQ pin and the GND pin

For instance, the switching frequency is 2.2 MHz if the resistance between the FREQ pin and GND is 18 kΩ. This pin cannot be left floating or tied to VCC.
