7.3.4 Oscillator and Frequency Spread Spectrum (FSS)

The oscillator frequency is internally fixed. The TPS40303 operating frequency is 300 kHz, the TPS40304 operating frequency is 600 kHz, and the TPS40305 operating frequency is 1.2 MHz.

Connecting a resistor with a value of 267 kΩ ±10% from BP to EN/SS enables the FSS feature. When the FSS is enabled, it spreads the internal oscillator frequency over a minimum 12% window using a 25-kHz modulation frequency with triangular profile. By modulating the switching frequency, side-bands are created. The emission power of the fundamental switching frequency and its harmonics is distributed into smaller pieces scattered around many sideband frequencies. The effect significantly reduces the peak EMI noise and makes it much easier for the resultant emission spectrum to pass EMI regulations.
