8.1 Overview

The TPSM63610E is an easy-to-use, synchronous buck DC/DC power module designed for a wide variety of applications where reliability, small solution size, and low EMI signature are of paramount importance. With integrated power MOSFETs, a buck inductor, and PWM controller, the TPSM63610E operates over an input voltage range of 3 V to 36 V with transients as high as 42 V. The module delivers up to 8-A (10-A peak) DC load current with high conversion efficiency and ultra-low input quiescent current in a very small solution footprint. Control loop compensation is not required, reducing design time and external component count.

With a programmable switching frequency from 200 kHz to 2.2 MHz using its RT pin or an external clock signal, the TPSM63610E incorporates specific features to improve EMI performance in noise-sensitive applications:

  • An optimized package and pinout design enables a shielded switch-node layout that mitigates radiated EMI
  • Parallel input and output paths with symmetrical capacitor layouts minimize parasitic inductance, switch-voltage ringing, and radiated field coupling
  • Dual-random spread spectrum (DRSS) modulation reduces peak emissions
  • Resistor-programmable switch-node slew rate
  • Clock synchronization and FPWM mode enable constant switching frequency across the load current range
  • Integrated power MOSFETs with enhanced gate drive control enable low-noise PWM switching

Together, these features significantly reduce EMI filtering requirements, while helping to meet CISPR 11 and CISPR 32 Class B EMI limits for conducted and radiated emissions.

The TPSM63610E module also includes inherent protection features for robust system requirements:

  • An open-drain PGOOD indicator for power-rail sequencing and fault reporting
  • Precision enable input with hysteresis, providing
    • Programmable line undervoltage lockout (UVLO)
    • Remote ON and OFF capability
  • Internally fixed output-voltage soft start with monotonic start-up into prebiased loads
  • Hiccup-mode overcurrent protection with cycle-by-cycle peak and valley current limits
  • Thermal shutdown with automatic recovery.

Leveraging a pin arrangement designed for simple layout that requires only a few external components, the TPSM63610E is specified to maximum junction temperatures of 125°C. See typical performance curves to estimate suitability in a given ambient environment.
