PRODUCTION DATA.
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
The TPS55065 can be operated in a buck boost configuration with voltage mode control. The device is capable of monitoring the output as well as the input supply rail. The device also offers a frequency modulation scheme for minimizing EMI. The slew rate is set using the SCR0 and the SCR1 terminals. The average converter efficiency varies with the different slew rate controls of the Q1 switching FET. These variations are demonstrated using this design example at an input voltage of 11 V and 17 V.
NOTE
When this attachment method is not implemented correctly, this product may operate inefficiently. Power dissipation capability may be adversely affected when the device is incorrectly mounted onto the circuit board.
For this design example, use the parameters listed in Table 4 as the input parameters.
DESIGN PARAMETERS | VALUE |
---|---|
Input voltage V(driver) | 11 V to 18 V |
Output current (maximum) | 500 mA |
Four different SCRx settings will be used to analyze the difference in converter efficiency with variations in slew rate (see Figure 20). The Buck equations mentioned in Buck Mode will be used to calculate the rest of the design parameters.
where
Usually, the first term is dominant.
Using the previous equations, with Vin (maximum) as 18 V, Vout as 5 V, fSW as 440 kHz, and Inductor ripple current of 0.1 A, the inductance is calculated to be 82.1 µH with inductor peak current as 0.55 A.
