All graphs have been generated using the circuit as shown unless otherwise noted. For output voltages other than 5 V, the fixed-voltage versions were used. The resistors R1, R2, and the feed forward capacitor (Cff) are removed and the feedback pin is directly connected to the output.

10.2.1.2.1 Inductor Selection

A 10-µH minimum inductor must be used with the TPS6205x family of devices. Values larger than 22 µH or smaller than 10 µH may cause stability problems due to the internal compensation of the regulator. After choosing the inductor value of typically 10 µH, two additional inductor parameters must be considered: the current rating of the inductor and the DC resistance. The DC resistance of the inductance directly influences the efficiency of the converter. Therefore, an inductor with lowest DC resistance must be selected for highest efficiency. To avoid saturation of the inductor, the inductor must be rated at least for the maximum output current plus half the inductor ripple current which is calculated using Equation 3.

Equation 3. TPS62050 TPS62051 TPS62052 TPS62054 TPS62056 Q_IL_VO_lvs432.gif

The highest inductor current occurs at maximum VIN . A more conservative approach is to select the inductor current rating just for the maximum switch current of the TPS6205x device, which is 1.4 A maximum. See Table 3 for inductors that have been tested for operation with the TPS6205x devices.

10.2.1.2.2 Output Capacitor Selection

The output capacitor must have a minimum value of 22 µF. For best performance, a low ESR ceramic output capacitor is needed.

For completeness, use Equation 4 to calculate the RMS ripple current.

Equation 4. TPS62050 TPS62051 TPS62052 TPS62054 TPS62056 Q_IRMS_VO_lvs432.gif

The overall output ripple voltage is the sum of the voltage spike caused by the output capacitor ESR plus the voltage ripple caused by charge and discharging the output capacitor, as shown in Equation 5.

Equation 5. TPS62050 TPS62051 TPS62052 TPS62054 TPS62056 Q_VO_VO_lvs432.gif

The highest output voltage ripple occurs at the highest input voltage VI.

10.2.1.2.3 Input Capacitor Selection

Because the buck converter has a pulsating input current, a low ESR input capacitor is required for best input voltage filtering and minimizing the interference with other circuits caused by high input voltage spikes. The input capacitor must have a minimum value of 10 µF and can be increased without any limit for better input voltage filtering. The input capacitor must be rated for the maximum input ripple current calculated as:

Equation 6. TPS62050 TPS62051 TPS62052 TPS62054 TPS62056 Q_IRMS_IO_lvs432.gif

The worst-case RMS ripple current occurs at D = 0.5 and is calculated as: IRMS = IO/2. Ceramic capacitors have a good performance because of their low ESR value and they are less sensitive to voltage transients compared to tantalum capacitors. Place the input capacitor as close as possible to the input pin of the IC for best performance.

10.2.1.2.4 Feedforward Capacitor

The feedforward capacitor (C(ff) shown in Figure 5) improves the performance in SKIP mode. The comparator is faster; therefore, there is less voltage ripple at the output in SKIP mode. Use the values listed in Table 2. Larger values decrease stability in fixed frequency PWM mode. If the TPS6205x devices are only operated in fixed frequency PWM mode, the feedforward capacitor is not needed.

TPS62050 TPS62051 TPS62052 TPS62054 TPS62056 ai_PSM_lvs432.gifFigure 7. Power-Save Mode Output Voltage Thresholds

The converter enters the fixed frequency PWM mode again as soon as the output voltage falls below the comparator low 2 threshold set to 1.6% below VO, nominal.

10.3 System Examples

The TPS62050 device is used to generate an output voltage of 0.7 V. With such low output voltages, the inductor discharges very slowly. This leads to a high-output voltage ripple in power-save mode (SYNC = GND). Therefore, TI recommends using a larger output capacitor to keep the output ripple low. With an output capacitor of 47 µF, the output voltage ripple is less than 40 mVPP.
