PRODUCTION DATA
The high-side switch driver circuit requires a bias voltage higher than VIN to ensure the HS switch is turned ON. There is an internal 0.1-μF capacitor connected between BOOT and SW that operates as a charge pump to boost the voltage on the BOOT terminal to (SW + VCC). The boot diode is integrated on the TPSM336x5 die to minimize physical solution size. The BOOT rail has an UVLO setting. This UVLO has a threshold of VBOOT-UVLO and is typically set at 2.1 V. If the BOOT capacitor is not charged above this voltage with respect to the SW pin, then the part initiates a charging sequence, turning on the low-side switch before attempting to turn on the high-side device.
