JAJSIT5D March 2020 – July 2021 TPS548A29
PRODUCTION DATA
The TPS548A29 device is a high-efficiency, single-channel, small-sized, synchronous-buck converter. The device suits low output voltage point-of-load applications with 15-A or lower output current in server, storage, and similar computing applications. The TPS548A29 features proprietary D-CAP3 mode control combined with adaptive on-time architecture. This combination builds modern low-duty-ratio and ultra-fast load-step-response DC/DC converters in an ideal fashion. The output voltage ranges from 0.6 V to 5.5 V. The conversion input voltage ranges from 2.7 V to 16 V, and the VCC input voltage ranges from 4.75 V to 5.3 V. The D-CAP3 mode uses emulated current information to control the modulation. An advantage of this control scheme is that it does not require a phase-compensation network outside which makes the device easy to use and also allows low external component count. Further advantage of this control scheme is that it supports stable operation with all low-ESR output capacitors (such as ceramic capacitor and low-ESR polymer capacitor). Adaptive on-time control tracks the preset switching frequency over a wide range of input and output voltages while increasing switching frequency as needed during load-step transient.
