8.3.3 Output Voltage Configuration with a Voltage Source

Since the TPS7H1111 output voltage is equal to the SS_SET voltage (minus any offset error), it is also possible to configure the TPS7H1111 by providing a voltage on SS_SET. As shown in Figure 8-2, a voltage source, VSET, is fed to SS_SET. A DAC can be used as the voltage source to enable a configurable voltage control.

GUID-20230106-SS0I-LNW3-CMMC-DPTSFJ5N0VDQ-low.svg Figure 8-2 Simplified Schematic to Configure Output Voltage with a Voltage Source on SS_SET

A few unique considerations should be taken into account when using this method:

  • When a voltage source is provided on SS_SET, instead of relying on the ultra-low noise reference current, the noise of VSET is passed to the output through the unity gain error amplifier. It may be advisable to use an RC filter between VSET and SS_SET as shown to minimize noise.
  • Since the TPS7H1111 output voltage directly follows SS_SET, there will be no soft-start during startup. It is recommended to control the VSET voltage slew rate to ensure desired soft-start time. An RC filter between VSET and the SS_SET may help with this slew rate control.
  • The SS_SET pin will output a nominal 100 μA during operation and 2.1 mA during "soft-start" (when VFB_PG < VFB_PG(rising)). In order to handle this current, a shunt resistor may be required.
