PRODUCTION DATA
Refer to the PDF data sheet for device specific package drawings
The output voltage of the TPS7H1111 is set by placing a resistor, RSET, from the SS_SET pin to GND. During nominal operation, 100 μA is output from the SS_SET pin. By appropriately selecting RSET, the desired output voltage will be generated on the SS_SET pin as calculated in Equation 1. This voltage will be replicated on the output through the internal unity gain error amplifier as shown in Figure 8-1.
where
The 100 μA reference current is configured by placing a 12 kΩ resistor from the REF pin to GND. The 1.2 V across the RREF resistor will create an approximate 100 μA reference current. This current is mirrored to the SS_SET pin to create a highly accurate reference current. Generally 0.1% precision resistors are recommended for RREF and RSET to precisely set the currents. If precision 0.1% resistors are utilized, the ISS_SET error due to the RREF resistor will be 0.1%. Additionally, the 0.1% error of the RSET resistor will also contribute to VOUT accuracy error. The TPS7H1111 accuracy specification is +1.2% / –1.3% across line, load, and temperature, but resistor tolerance error must be separately added. Common output voltages and resistor values are shown in Table 8-4.
Output Voltage, VOUT | Value for 0.1% Tolerance Resistors |
---|---|
0.4 V | 4.02 kΩ |
0.7 V | 6.98 kΩ |
1 V | 10 kΩ |
1.1 V | 11 kΩ |
1.2 V | 12 kΩ |
1.5 V | 15 kΩ |
1.8 V | 18 kΩ |
2.5 V | 24.9 kΩ |
3.3 V | 33.2 kΩ |
4 V | 40.2 kΩ |
5 V | 49.9 kΩ |
Additionally, if greater accuracy is desired, matched resistors may be utilized (which are often available in accuracy ratios better than 0.1%). For example, a nominal 12 kΩ ± 5% resistor could be selected for RREF with a matched resistor so that the that RSET / RREF ratio is 0.01% (or even better). In this case, instead of Equation 1 to calculate the set voltage, use Equation 2.
where
Equation 2 allows one to easily calculate errors in the set output voltage due to RREF and RSET resistor mismatch. However, while improved resistor ratios will likely improve the output accuracy, other error sources are still present. These sources include the inherent reference current accuracy itself and error amplifier offset voltage.
The output voltage accuracy, VACC, specifies a minimum accuracy of –1.3% and maximum accuracy of +1.2% in the Electrical Characteristics table. This specification applies across the complete temperature range of –55°C to 125°C, across all the input voltages (0.85 V ≤ VIN ≤ 7 V and 2.2 V ≤ VBIAS ≤ 14 V), and up to full load (1 mA ≤ IOUT ≤ 1.5 A). A few additional details to the measurement are noted:
