6.1 Overview

The TPS6291x low-noise, low-ripple synchronous buck converter is a fixed frequency current mode converter. The converter has a filtered internal reference to achieve a low-noise output similar to low noise LDOs. The converter achieves lower output voltage ripple by using a switching frequency of either 2.2 MHz, 1.4 MHz, or 1 MHz and a larger inductance. The output voltage ripple can be further reduced by adding a small second stage L-C filter to the output. This can be a ferrite bead or a small inductor, followed by an output capacitor. Internal compensation maintains stability with an external filter inductor up to 50 nH. To avoid voltage drops across this second stage filter, the device regulates the output voltage after the filter. The TPS6291x family supports an optional spread spectrum modulation. When powering ADCs, for example, spread spectrum modulation reduces the mixing spurs. Switching frequency, spread spectrum modulation, and output discharge are set using the S-CONF pin.
