6.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

6.2.2.1 Output Filter Design (Inductor and Output Capacitor)

6.2.2.1.1 Inductor Selection

The converters operates typically with a 1.5-µH or 2.2-µH output inductor. The selected inductor has to be rated for its dc resistance and saturation current. The DC resistance of the inductance will influence directly the efficiency of the converter. Therefore an inductor with lowest dc resistance should be selected for highest efficiency.

Equation 1 calculates the maximum inductor current under static load conditions. The saturation current of the inductor should be rated higher than the maximum inductor current as calculated with Equation 1. This is recommended because during heavy load transient the inductor current will rise above the calculated value.

Equation 1. TPS657120 EQ1_DIL_lvsae1.gif

where

  • f = Switching Frequency (2.25MHz typical)
  • L = Inductor Value
  • ΔIL = Peak-to-Peak inductor ripple current
  • ILmax = Maximum Inductor current

The highest inductor current will occur at maximum Vin.

Open core inductors have a soft saturation characteristic and they can usually handle higher inductor currents versus a comparable shielded inductor.

A more conservative approach is to select the inductor current rating just for the maximum switch current of the corresponding converter. It must be considered, that the core material from inductor to inductor differs and will have an impact on the efficiency especially at high switching frequencies.

Note that the step down converter has internal loop compensation. The internal loop compensation is designed to work with an output filter corner frequency calculated as follows:

Equation 2. TPS657120 EQ2_fc_lvsae1.gif

This leads to the fact the selection of external L-C filter has to be coped with the above equation. As a general rule the product of L x COUT should be constant while selecting smaller inductor or increasing output capacitor value.

Refer to Table 6-2 and the typical applications for possible inductors.

DFE201610C-2R2 2.2 µH Toko for DCDC1 and DCDC2 (high efficiency)
DFE252010-1R5N 1.5 µH Toko for DCDC3

6.2.2.1.2 Output Capacitor Selection

The advanced Fast Response voltage mode control scheme of the step-down converter allows the use of small ceramic capacitors with a typical value of 10 µF, without having large output voltage under and overshoots during heavy load transients. Ceramic capacitors having low ESR values result in lowest output voltage ripple and are therefore recommended. For an inductor value of 1.5 µH or 2.2 µH, an output capacitor with 10 µF can be used. See the recommended components.

If ceramic output capacitors are used, the capacitor RMS ripple current rating will always meet the application requirements. Just for completeness the RMS ripple current is calculated using Equation 3.

Equation 3. TPS657120 EQ3_Irms_lvsae1.gif

At nominal load currents, the inductive converters operate in PWM mode and the overall output voltage ripple is the sum of the voltage spike caused by the output capacitor ESR plus the voltage ripple caused by charging and discharging the output capacitor; see Equation 4.

Equation 4. TPS657120 EQ4_Dvout_lvsae1.gif

Where the highest output voltage ripple occurs at the highest input voltage Vin.

At light load currents, the converter operates in Power Save Mode and the output voltage ripple is dependent on the output capacitor value. The output voltage ripple is set by the internal comparator delay and the external capacitor. The typical output voltage ripple is less than 1% of the nominal output voltage.

6.2.2.1.3 Input Capacitor / Output Capacitor Selection

Because of the nature of the buck converter having a pulsating input current, a low ESR input capacitor is required for best input voltage filtering and minimizing the interference with other circuits caused by high input voltage spikes. The converters need a ceramic input capacitor of 10 μF. The input capacitor can be increased without any limit for better input voltage filtering. As the output capacitor influences the loop stability, any deviation form the required output capacitance may cause the DC-DC converter or LDO to become unstable.

6.2.2.1.4 Voltage Change on DCDC1, DCDC2 and DCDC3

The output voltage of the DC-DC converters can be changed during operation by the digital interface. In addition, the DC-DC converters can be configured such that toggling DCDC3_SEL switches between two different sets of output voltages defined in registers DCDCx_OP and DCDCx_AVS.
