8.2.2.1 Switching Frequency Selection

To achieve a balance between small size and high efficiency for this design, use switching frequency of 500 kHz.

8.2.2.2 Inductor Selection

Synchronous buck power inductors are typically sized for between approximately 20% and 40% peak-to-peak ripple current (IP-P).

Using this target ripple current, the required inductor size can be calculated as shown in Equation 3.

Equation 3. TPS56221 deq_l_lusah5.gif

Selecting a standard 320-nH inductor value, IP-P = 5.8 A.

The RMS current through the inductor is approximated in Equation 4.

Equation 4. TPS56221 deq_irms_lusah5.gif

8.2.2.3 Output Capacitor Selection

The selection of the output capacitor is typically driven by the output transient response. For applications with VIN(min) > 2 x VOUT, use overshoot to calculate the minimum output capacitance and the equation is shown in Equation 5.

Equation 5. TPS56221 deq_coutmin_lusah5.gif

For applications where VIN(min) < 2 × VOUT, use undershoot to calculate minimum output capacitance. The equation is shown in Equation 6.

Equation 6. TPS56221 deq_coutminunder_lusah5.gif

To meet the low ESR and high-capacitance requirements of this design, five 100-µF, 1210 ceramic capacitors are selected. With a minimum capacitance, the maximum allowable ESR is determined by the maximum ripple voltage and is approximated by Equation 7.

Equation 7. TPS56221 deq_esr_coutmax_lusah5.gif

8.2.2.4 Inductor Peak Current Rating

With output capacitance, it is possible to calculate the charge current during start-up and determine the minimum saturation current rating for the inductor. The start-up charging current is approximated by Equation 8.

Equation 8. TPS56221 deq_icharge_lusah5.gif

The peak current in the inductor IL(peak) is approximated by Equation 9.

Equation 9. TPS56221 deq_ilpeak_lusah5.gif

With the short circuit current trip point IOUT(max) set at 32 A, the maximum allowable peak current IL(peak max) is

Equation 10. TPS56221 deq_ilpeakmax_lusah5.gif

The selection of output capacitor meets the maximum allowable peak current requirement.

Table 3. Inductor Requirements Summary

PARAMETER VALUE UNIT
L Inductance 320 nH
IL(rms) RMS current (thermal rating) 25.1 A
IL(peak max) Peak current (saturation rating) 32.9 A

The PA0513.321NLT, 320-nH, 0.32-mΩ, 41-A inductor is selected.

8.2.2.5 Input Capacitor Selection

The input voltage ripple is divided between capacitance and ESR. For this design VIN_RIPPLE(CAP) = 150 mV and VIN_RIPPLE(ESR) = 50 mV. The minimum capacitance and maximum ESR are estimated in Equation 11.

Equation 11. TPS56221 deq_cinmin_lusah5.gif
Equation 12. TPS56221 deq_esrcinmax_lusah5.gif

The RMS current in the input capacitors is estimated by Equation 13.

Equation 13. TPS56221 deq_irmscin_lusah5.gif

Four 1210, 22-µF, 25-V, X5R ceramic capacitors with about 2.5-mΩ of ESR and a 2.5-A RMS current rating are selected. Higher voltage capacitors are selected to minimize capacitance loss at the DC bias voltage to ensure the capacitors will have sufficient capacitance at the working voltage while a 1.0-µF capacitor in smaller case size is used to reduce high frequency noise from the MOSFET switching.

8.2.2.6 Boot-Strap Capacitor (C14)

The bootstrap capacitor maintains power to the high-side driver during the high-side switch ON time. Per the requirements of the integrated MOSFET, CBOOT is 100 nF with a minimum 10-V rating.

8.2.2.7 Boot-Strap Resistor (R2)

The bootstrap resistor slows the rising edge of the SW voltage to reduce ringing and improve EMI. Per the datasheet recommendation a 5.10-Ω resistor is selected.

8.2.2.7.1 RC Snubber (R9 and C18)

To effectively limit the switch node ringing, a 1.0-Ω resistor and a 2200-pF capacitor are selected.

8.2.2.8 VDD Bypass Capacitor (C11)

In accordance with pin terminations recommended in the data sheet, VDD is bypassed to GND with a 1.0-µF capacitor.

8.2.2.9 BP5 Bypass Capacitor (C12)

Per the datasheet recommended pin terminations, BP5 is bypassed to GND with at least 1.0-µF capacitor. For additional filtering and noise immunity a 4.7-µF capacitor is selected.

8.2.2.10 Soft-Start Capacitor (C13)

The soft-start capacitor provides a constant ramp voltage to the error amplifier to provide controlled, smooth start-up. The soft-start capacitor is sized using Equation 14.

Equation 14. TPS56221 deq_css_lusah5.gif

8.2.2.11 Current Limit (R1)

The TPS56221 uses the negative drop across the internal low-side FET at the end of the OFF-time to measure the valley of the inductor current. Allowing for a minimum of 30% over maximum load, the programming resistor is selected using Equation 15.

Equation 15. TPS56221 deq_rocset_lusah5.gif

A standard 2.87-kΩ resistor is selected from the E-48 series.

8.2.2.12 Feedback Divider (R4, R7)

The TPS56221 converter uses a full operational amplifier with an internally fixed 0.600-V reference. R4 is selected between 10 kΩ and 50 kΩ for a balance of feedback current and noise immunity. With R4 set to 20.5 kΩ, The output voltage is programmed with a resistor divider given by Equation 16.

Equation 16. TPS56221 deq_7_lusah5.gif

A standard 30.1-kΩ resistor is selected from the E-48 series.

8.2.2.13 Compensation (C15, C16, C17, R3, R6)

Using the TPS40k Loop Stability Tool for 50 kHz of bandwidth and 60 degrees of phase margin with an R4 value of 20.5 kΩ, the following values are obtained.

  • C17 = C_1 = 680 pF
  • C15 = C_2 = 2200 pF
  • C16 = C_3 = 100 pF
  • R6 = R_2 = 1.00 kΩ
