DESCRIPTION  
The TPS40100 is a mid voltage, wide-input (between  
4.5 V and 18 V), synchronous, step-down controller.  
The TPS40100 offers programmable closed loop  
soft-start, programmable UVLO (with programmable  
hysteresis), programmable inductor sensed current  
limit and can be synchronized to other timebases.  
The TPS40100 incorporates MOSFET gate drivers  
for external N-channel high-side and synchronous  
rectifier (SR) MOSFET. Gate drive logic incorporates  
adaptive anti-cross conduction circuitry for improved  
efficiency, reducing both cross conduction and diode  
conduction in the rectifier MOSFET. The externally  
Frequency Synchronization  
programmable current limit provides  
overcurrent recovery characteristic.

APPLICATION INFORMATION  
Introduction  
The TPS40100 is a synchronous buck controller targeted at applications that require sequencing and output  
voltage margining features. This controller uses a current feedback mechanism to make loop compensation  
easier for loads that can have wide capacitance variations. Current sensing (for both current feedback and  
overcurrent) is true differential and can be done using the inductor DC resistance (with a R-C filter) or with a  
separate sense resistor in series with the inductor. The overcurrent level is programmable independently from  
the amount of current feedback providing greater application flexibility. Likewise, the overcurrent function has  
user programmable integration to eliminate nuisance tripping and allow the user to tailor the response to  
application requirements. The controller provides an integrated method to margin the output voltage to ± 3% and  
± 5% of its nominal value by simply grounding one of two pins directly or through a resistance. Powergood and  
clock synchronization functions are provided on dedicated pins. Users can program operating frequency and the  
closed loop soft-start time by means of a resistor and capacitor to ground respectively. Output se-  
quencing/tracking can be accomplished in one of three ways: sequential (one output comes up, then a second  
comes up), ratiometric (one or more outputs reach regulation at the same time – the voltages all follow a  
constant ration while starting) and simultaneous (one or more outputs track together on startup and reach  
regulation in order from lowest to highest).  
Programming Operating Frequency  
Operating frequency is set by connecting a resistor to GND from the RT pin. The relationship is:

frequency.

Selecting an Inductor Value  
The inductor value determines the ripple current in the output capacitors and has an effect on the achievable  
transient response. A large inductance decreases ripple current and output voltage ripple, but is physically larger  
than a smaller inductance at the same current rating and limits output current slew rate more that a smaller  
inductance would. A lower inductance increases ripple current and output voltage ripple, but is physically smaller  
than a larger inductance at the same current rating. For most applications, a good compromise is selecting an  
inductance value that gives a ripple current between 20% and 30% of the full load current of the converter. The  
required inductance for a given ripple current can be found from:

I is the peak-to-peak ripple current in the inductor (A)  
Selecting the Output Capacitance  
The required value for the output capacitance depends on the output ripple voltage requirements and the ripple  
current in the inductor, as well as any load transient specifications that may exist.  
The output voltage ripple depends directly on the ripple current and is affected by two parameters from the  
output capacitor: total capacitance and the capacitors equivalent series resistance (ESR). The output ripple  
voltage (worst case) can be found from:

COUT is the capacitance value of the output capacitor (F)  
ESR is the equivalent series resistance of the capacitor, COUT ()  
For electrolytic capacitors, the output ripple voltage is almost entirely (90% or more) due to the ESR of the  
capacitor. When using ceramic output capacitors, the output ripple contribution from ESR is much smaller and  
the capacitance value itself becomes more significant. Paralleling output capacitors to achieve a desired output  
capacitance generally lowers the effective ESR more effectively than using a single larger capacitor. This  
increases performance at the expense of board area.  
If there are load transient requirements that must be met, the overshoot and undershoot of the output voltage  
must be considered. If the load suddenly increases, the output voltage momentarily dips until the current in the  
inductor can ramp up to match the new load requirement. If the feedback loop is designed aggressively, this  
undershoot can be minimized. For a given undershoot specification, the required output capacitance can be  
found by:

Similarly, if the load current suddenly goes from a high value to a low value, the output voltage overshoots. The

The actual value and type of output capacitance is the one that satisfies both the ripple and transient  
specifications.

Calculating the Current Sense Filter Network  
The TPS 40100 gets current feedback information by sensing the voltage across the inductor resistance, RLDC. In  
order to do this, a filter must be constructed that allows the sensed voltage to be representative of the actual  
current in the inductor. This filter is a series R-C network connected across the inductor as shown in Figure 3.

If the RFLT-CFLT time constant is matched to the L/RLDC time constant, the voltage across CFLT is equal to the  
voltage across RLDC. It is recommended to keep RFLT 10 kor less. CFLT can be arbitrarily chosen to meet this  
condition (100 nF is suggested). RFLT can then be calculated.

When laying out the board, better performance can be accomplished by locating CFLT as close as possible to the  
VO and ISNS pins. The closer the two resistors can be brought to the device the better as this reduces the  
length of high impedance runs that are susceptible to noise pickup. The 100-resistor from VOUT to the VO pin  
of the device is to limit current in the event that the output voltage dips below ground when a short is applied to  
the output of the converter.  
Compensation for Inductor Resistance Change Over Temperature  
The resistance in the inductor that is sensed is the resistance of the copper winding. This value changes over  
temperature and has approximately a 4000 ppm/°C temperature coefficient. The gain of current sense amplifier  
in the TPS40100 has a built in temperature coefficient of approximately -2000 ppm/°C. If the circuit is physically  
arranged so that there is good thermal coupling between the inductor and the device, the thermal shifts tend to  
offset. If the thermal coupling is perfect, the net temperature coefficient is 2000 ppm/°C. If the coupling is not  
perfect, the net temperature coefficient lies between 2000 ppm/°C and 4000 ppm/°C. For most applications this is  
sufficient. If desired, the temperature drifts can be compensated for. The following compensation scheme  
assumes that the temperature rise at the device is directly proportional to the temperature rise at the inductor. If  
this is not the case, compensation accuracy suffers. Also, there is generally a time lag in the temperature rise at  
the device vs. at the inductor that could introduce transient errors beyond those predicted by the compensation.  
Also, the 100-resistor in Figure 3 is not shown. However, it is required if the output voltage can dip below  
ground during fault conditions. The calculations are not afffected, other than increasing the effective value of RF1  
by 100-.

The first step is to determine an attenuation ratio α. This ratio should be near to 1 but not too close. If it is too  
close to 1, the circuit requires large impedances and thermistor values too high. If α is too low, the current signal  
is attenuated unnecessarily. A suggested value is 0.8.

The base temperature (TBASE) should be selected to be the lowest temperature of interest for the thermal  
matching – the lowest ambient expected. The resistance of the inductor at this base temperature should be used  
to calculate effective resistance. The expected current sense amplifier gain at TBASE should be used for  
calculating over current components (RILIM).  
The next step is to decide at what two temperatures the compensation is matched to the response of the  
deviceand inductor copper, T1 and T2. Once these are chosen, an NTC thermistor can be chosen and its value  
found from its data sheet at these two temperatures: RNTC(T1) and RNTC(T2). The component values in the network  
can be calculated using the following equations:

Establishing Current Feedback  
The amount of current feedback in a given application is programmable by the user. The amount of current  
feedback used is intended to be just enough to reduce the Q of the output filter double pole. This allows design  
of a converter control loop that is stable for a very wide range of output capacitance. Setting the current feedback  
higher offers little real benefit and can actually degrade load transient response, as well as introduce pulse  
skipping in the converter. The current feedback is adjusted by setting the gain of the current sense amplifier. The  
amplifier is a transconductance type and its gain is a set by connecting a resistor from the GM pin to GND:

ESR zero may by used to eliminate the need for a Type III compensator. The model in Figure 6 uses a Type II

Compensating the Loop (Type III)  
If the output capacitor does not have sufficient ESR to use the phase shift from the ESR zero, a Type III  
compensator is required. This is the case for most designs with ceramic output capacitors only. A series R-C  
circuit is added in parallel to R1 as shown in Figure 8.  
This is the same compensator as in Figure 6 except for the addition of C3 and R3. A typical response of this

Figure 8. Type III Compensator Schematic  
The reason for using the Type III compensator is to take advantage of the phase lead associated with the  
upward slope of the gain between fZ3 and fP3. The crossover frequency should be located between these two  
frequencies. The amount of phase lead generated is dependent on the separation of the fZ3 and fP3. In general, if  
f
Z3 is one half of fC and fP3 is twice fC, the amount of phase lead at fC generated is sufficient for most applications.  
Certainly more or less may be used depending on the situation.  
As an example of selecting the extra required extra phase lead, suppose that the control to output gain phase  
evaluates to -145° at fC. The Type II compensator has approximately 11.5° of phase lag at fC due to the origin  
pole, the zero at fC/10 and the pole at 10xfC. This would give only 23.5° of phase margin, which while stable is  
not ideal. Placing fZ3 and fP3 at one half and twice the crossover frequency respectively adds approximately 36°  
of phase lead at fC for a new phase margin of 59.5°.  
To calculate the values for this type of compensator, first select R1. Again the choice is somewhat arbitrary. 10

APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)  
Establishing Tracking and Designing a Tracking Control Loop  
The tracking startup feature of the TPS40100 is a separate control loop that controls the output voltage to a  
reference applied to the TRKIN pin. This reference voltage is typically a ramp generated by an external R-C  
circuit. Connecting the junction of R5, C5 and R6 (see Figure 10) of multiple converters together allows the  
converters output voltages to track together during start up. A controlled power down is accomplished by pulling  
down the common junction in a controlled manner and then removing power to the converters or turning them off  
by grounding the UVLO pin.The relevant circuit fragment is shown in Figure 10.

First, select a value for R4. In order for this circuit to work properly, the output of the tracking amplifier must be  
able to cause the FB pin to reach at least 690 mV with the output voltage at zero volts. This is so that the output  
voltage can be forced to zero by the tracking amplifier. This places a maximum value on R4:

R4 should not be chosen much lower than this value since that unnecessarily increases tracking loop gain,  
making compensation more difficult and opening the door to potential non-linear control issues. D1 could be a  
schottky if the impedance of the R1-RBIAS string is low enough that the leakage current is not a consequence. Be  
aware that schottky diode leakage currents rise significantly at elevated temperature. If elevated temperature  
operation and increased accuracy are important, use a standard or low leakage junction diode or the  
base-emitter junction of a transistor for D1.  
Once R4 is selected, the gain of the closed loop power supply looking into “A” is known. That gain is the ratio of

The tracking loop itself should have a crossover frequency much less that the crossover frequency of the voltage  
control loop. Typically, the tracking loop crossover frequency is 1/10th or less of the voltage loop crossover  
frequency to avoid loop interactions. Note that the presence of the diode in the circuit gives a non-linear control  
mechanism for the tracking loop. The presence of this non-linearity makes designing a control loop more  
challenging. The simplest approach is to simply limit the bandwidth of this loop to no more than necessary.

The actual values of R5 and C4 are a balance between impedance level and component size. Any of a range of  
values is applicable. In general, R5 should be no more than 20% of R6, and less than 10 k. If this is done, then  
R6 can safely be ignored for purposes of tracking loop gain calculations. For general usage, R6 should probably  
be between 100 kand 500 k.  
If an overshoot bump is present on the output at the beginning a tracking controlled startup, the tracking loop  
bandwidth is likely too high. Reducing the bandwidth helps reduce the initial overshoot. See Figure 11 and  
Figure 12.

With these equations, it is possible to design the tracking loop so that the impedance level of the loop and the  
component size are balanced for the particular application. Note that higher impedances make the loop more  
susceptible to noise issues while lower impedances require increased capacitor size.

Figure 13. AC Behavioral Model for Tracking Control Loop  
To use the model, the AC voltage source is swept over the frequency range of interest. The open loop ac  
response is VX/VOUT  
.
Programming Soft-Start Time  
The soft-start time of the TPS40100 is fully user programmable by selecting a single capacitor. The SS pin  
sources 20 µA to charge this capacitor. The actual output ramp-up time is the amount of time that it takes for the  
20 µA to charge the capacitor through a 690 mV range. There is some initial lag due to an offset from the actual  
SS pin voltage to the voltage applied to the error amplifier. See Figure 15. The soft-start is done in a closed loop  
fashion, meaning that the error amplifier controls the output voltage at all times during the soft start period and  
the feedback loop is never open as occurs in duty cycle limit soft-start schemes. The error amplifier has two  
non-inverting inputs, one connected to the 690 mV reference voltage, and one connected to the offset SS pin  
voltage. The lower of these two voltages is what the error amplifier controls the FB pin to. As the voltage on the  
SS pin ramps up past approximately 1.04 V (resulting in 690 mV at the SS “+” input – See Figure 15), the 690  
mV reference voltage becomes the dominant input and the converter has reached its final regulation voltage.

Interaction Between Soft-Start and Tracking Startup  
Since the TPS40100 provides two means of controlling the startup (closed loop soft-start and tracking) care must  
be taken to ensure that the two methods do not interfere with each other. The two methods should not be  
allowed to try and control the output at the same time. If tracking is to be used, the reference input to the tracking  
amplifier (TRKIN) should be held low until soft-start completes, or the voltage at the SS pin is at least above 1.04  
V. This ensures that the soft-start circuit is not trying to control the startup at the same time as tracking circuit. If  
it is desired to have soft-start control the startup, then there are two options:  
23  
TPS40100  
www.ti.com  
SLUS601MAY 2005  
APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)  
Disconnect the tracking amplifier output from the FB node (this is the recommended solution. The tracking  
amplifier can then be used for other system purposes if desired)  
Maintain the tracking amplifier output connection to the FB circuit - the reference to the tracking amplifier  
should be tied to VDD pin in this case. This places the tracking amplifier output (TRKOUT) in a low state  
continuously and therefore removes any influence the tracking circuit has on the converter startup.  
Additionally, when tracking is allowed to control the startup, soft-start should not be set to an arbitrarily short  
time. This causes the output voltage to bump up when power is applied to the converter as soft-start ramps up  
quickly and the tracking loop (which is necessarily low bandwidth) cannot respond fast enough to control the  
output to zero voltage. In other words, the soft start ramp rate must be within the capability of the tracking loop to  
override.  
Overcurrent Protection  
Overcurrent characteristics are determined by connecting a parallel R-C network from the ILIM pin to GND. The  
ILIM pin sources a current that is proportional to the current sense amplifier transconductance and the voltage  
between ISNS and VO. This current produces a voltage on the R-C network at ILIM. If the voltage at the ILIM pin  
reaches 1.48 V, an overcurrent condition is declared and the outputs stop switching for a period of time. This  
time period is determined by the time is takes to discharge the soft-start capacitor with a controlled current sink.

gmCSA is the transconductance of the current sensing amplifier  
I
RLDC is the equivalent series resistance of the inductor (or the sense resistor value)  
RILIM is the value of the resistor from ILIM to GND  
The response time of the overcurrent circuit is determined by the R-C time constant at the ILIM pin and the level  
of the overcurrent. The response time is given by:

where  
tOC is the response time before declaring an overcurrent  
ILIM () and CILIM (F) are the components connected to the ILIM pin  
n is the multiplier of the overcurrent. If the overcurrent is 2 times the programmed level, then n is 2.  
R
By suitable manipulation of the time constant at ILIM, the overcurrent response can be tailored to ride out short  
term transients and still provide protection for overloads and short circuits. The gm of the current sense amplifier  
has a temperature coefficient of approximately -2000 ppm/°C. This is to help offset the temperature coefficient of  
resistance of the copper in the inductor, about +4000 ppm/°C. The net is a +2000 ppm/°C temperature  
coefficient. So, for a 100°C increase in temperature, the overcurrent threshold decreases by 20%, assuming  
good thermal coupling between the controller and the inductor. Temperature compensation can be done as  
described earlier if desired.  
When an overcurrent condition is declared, the controller stops switching and turns off both the high-side  
MOSFET and the low-side MOSFET. The soft-start capacitor is then discharged at 25% of the charge rate during  
an overcurrent condition and the converter remains idle until the soft start pin reaches 200 mV, at which point the  
soft-start circuit starts charging again and the converter attempts to restart. In normal operation, the soft-start  
capacitor is charged to approximately 3.5 V when an initial fault is applied to the output. This means that the  
minimum time before the first restart attempt is:

attempted.

Voltage Margining  
The TPS40100 allows the user to make the output voltage temporarily be 3% above or below the nominal output,  
or 5% above or below the nominal output. This is accomplished by connecting the MGU or MGD pins to GND  
directly or through a resistance. See Table 1.

There are some important considerations when adjusting the output voltage.  
Only one of these pins should be anything other than an open circuit at any given time. States not listed in  
the table are invalid states and the behavior of the circuit may be erratic if this is tried.  
When changing the output voltage using the margin pins, it is very important to let the margin transition  
complete before altering the state of the margin pins again.  
Do not use mechanical means (switches, non-wetted relay contacts, etc) to alter the margining state. The  
contact bounce causes erratic behavior.  
Synchronization  
The TPS40100 may be synchronized to an external clock source that is faster than the free running frequency of  
the circuit. The SYNC pin is a rising edge sensitive trigger to the oscillator that causes the current cycle to  
terminate and starts the next switching cycle. It is recommended that the synchronization frequency be no more  
than 120% of the free running frequency. Following this guideline leads to fewer noise and jitter problems with  
the pulse width modulator in the device. The circuit can be synchronized to higher multiples of the free running  
frequency, but be aware that this results in a proportional decrease in the amplitude of the ramp from the  
oscillator applied to the PWM, leading to increased noise sensitivity and increased PWM gain, possibly affecting  
control loop stability.  
The pulse applied to the SYNC pin can be any duty ratio as long as the pulse either high or low is at least 100 ns  
wide. Levels are logic compatible with any voltage under 1 V considered a low and any voltage over 2 V  
considered a high.  
Power Good Indication  
The PGD pin is an open drain output that actively pulls to GND if any of the following conditions are met  
(assuming that the input voltage is above 4.5V)  
Soft-start is active (VSS < 3.5 V)  
Tracking is active (VTRKOUT > 0.7 V)  
VFB < 0.61 V  
VFB > 0.77 V  
VUVLO < 1.33 V  
Overcurrent condition exists  
Die temperature is greater than 165°C  
A short filter (20 µs) must be overcome before PGD pulls to GND from a high state to allow for short transient  
conditions and noise and not indicate a power NOT good condition.  
The PGD pin attempts to pull low in the absence of input power. If the VDD pin is open circuited, the voltage on  
PGD typically behaves as shown in Figure 17.

Pre-Bias Operation  
Some applications require that the converter not sink current during startup if a pre-existing voltage exists at the  
output. Since synchronous buck converters inherently sink current some method of overcoming this characteristic  
must be employed. Applications that require this operation are typically power rails for a multiple supply  
processor or ASIC. The method used in this controller, is to not allow the low side or rectifier FET to turn on until  
there the output voltage commanded by the start up ramp is higher than the pre-existing output voltage. This is  
detected by monitoring the internal pulse width modulator (PWM) for its first output pulse. Since this controller  
uses a closed loop startup, the first output pulse from the PWM does not occur until the output voltage is  
commanded to be higher than the pre-existing voltage. This effectively limits the controller to sourcing current  
only during the startup sequence. If the pre-existing voltage is higher that the intended regulation point for the  
output of the converter, the converter starts and sinks current when the soft-start time has completed.  
Remote Sense  
The TPS 40100 is capable of remotely sensing the load voltage to improve load regulation. This is accomplished  
by connecting the GND pin of the device and the feedback voltage divider as near to the load as possible.  
CAUTION:  
Long distance runs for the GND pin will cause erratic controller behavior.  
This begins to appear as increased pulse width jitter. As a starting point, the GND pin connection should be no  
further than six inches from the PGND connection. The actual distance that starts causing erratic behavior is  
application and layout dependent and must be evaluated on an individual basis. If the controller exhibits output  
pulse jitter in excess of 25 ns and the GND pin is tied to the load ground, connecting the GND pin closer to the  
PGND pin (and thereby sacrificing some load regulation) may improve performance. In either case, connecting  
the feedback voltage divider at the point of load should not cause any problems. For layout, the voltage divider  
components should be close to the device and a trace can be run from there to the load point.

http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the latest availability information and additional product content details.  
TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined.  
Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements  
for all 6 substances, including the requirement that lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered  
at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes.  
Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and  
package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS  
compatible) as defined above.  
Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame  
retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous material)

IMPORTANT NOTICE  
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other  
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46C and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48B. Buyers should  
obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All  
semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time  
of order acknowledgment.  
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms  
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary  
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily  
performed.  
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and  
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide  
adequate design and operating safeguards.  
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or  
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information  
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or  
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the  
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.  
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration  
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered  
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.  
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service  
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.  
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.  
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements  
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support  
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which  
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause  
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use  
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.  
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to  
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and  
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.  
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties  
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.  
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in  
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components  
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and  
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.  
TI has specifically designated certain components which meet ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. Components which  
have not been so designated are neither designed nor intended for automotive use; and TI will not be responsible for any failure of such  
components to meet such requirements.
