7.2.1 Design Requirements

The external components have to fulfill the needs of the application, but also meet the stability criteria of the control loop of the device. The device is designed to work within a range of external components, and can be optimized for efficiency, output ripple, component count, or lowest 1/f noise.

Typical applications that have input voltages of ≤ 6V use a 470nH inductor with a 1.1MHz switching frequency. Applications that have input voltages > 6V can be optimized for efficiency using a 470nH inductor with a 500kHz or 700kHz switching frequency depending on the output voltage.

For the application cases that are not found in the following table, there are two methods to design the TPS6296x circuit. Section 7.2.2.1 uses WEBENCH to design the circuit automatically or the calculations in Section 7.2.2.2 can be used instead.

Table 7-2 Typical Single L-C Filter Design Recommendations
DESIGN GOAL VIN VOUT FSW INDUCTOR (2) OUTPUT CAPACITORS (3)
Typical 12V(1) ≤ 1.4V(1) 700kHz 470nH 8 × 22µF, 10V, 0805
Typical 12V > 1.4V 1.0MHz 1µH 8 × 22µF, 10V, 0805
Typical 5V 0.6V < VOUT ≤ 3.3V 1.0MHz 1µH 8 × 22µF, 10V, 0805
(1) The maximum input to output voltage difference is limited by the device maximum minimum on-time of 70ns. This limit is especially important for input voltages above 12V or output voltages below 1V. See Section 7.2.2.2.1.
(2) For inductor part numbers, see Table 7-4.
(3) For output capacitor part numbers, see Table 7-6.

The second stage L-C filter is optional, as the device can be used without this filter to achieve below 20μVRMS noise typically. A second stage filter is added to provide additional attenuation of the output ripple voltage. The output voltage is sensed after the second L-C filter by connecting the FB resistors to the second stage L-C filter capacitor. This action provides remote sense, minimizing output voltage drop due to the ferrite bead. Refer to the following table for second stage L-C filter recommendations based on the output voltage.

Table 7-3 Second Stage L-C (Ferrite Bead) Filter Design Recommendations
VOUT (V) FERRITE BEAD IMPEDANCE (AT 100MHZ)(2) OUTPUT CAPACITORS (1)
≤ 1.0V 8 to 20Ω 2 × 22µF, 10V, 0805
1.0V < VOUT ≤ 2.2V 8 to 20Ω 1 × 22µF, 10V, 0805
> 2.2V 8 to 20Ω 2 × 22µF, 10V, 0805
(1) For output capacitor part numbers, see Table 7-6.
(2) For second stage L-C filter part numbers, see Table 7-6.
