This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with  
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.  
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more  
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

Switch Mode Power Supply Control  
The TPS51518 is a high performance, single-synchronous step-down controller with differential voltage feedback.  
It realizes accurate regulation at the specific load point over wide load range.  
The TPS51518 supports two control architectures, D-CAPmode and D-CAP2mode. Both control modes do  
not require complex external compensation networks and are suitable for designs with small external  
components counts. The D-CAPmode provides fast transient response with appropriate amount of equivalent  
series resistance (ESR) on the output capacitors. The D-CAP2mode is dedicated for a configuration with very  
low ESR output capacitors such as multi-layer ceramic capacitors (MLCC). For the both modes, an adaptive  
on-time control scheme is used to achieve pseudo-constant frequency. The TPS51518 adjusts the on-time (tON  
)
to be inversely proportional to the input voltage (VIN) and proportional to the SMPS output voltage (VOUT). The  
switching frequency remains nearly constant over the variation of input voltage at the steady-state condition.  
Control modes are selected by the MODE pin described in Table 2.  
VREF, V0, V1, V2, V3 and Output Voltage  
The device provides a 2.0-V, accurate voltage reference from the VREF pin. This output has a 300-µA current  
sourcing capability to drive V0, V1, V2 and V3 input voltages through a voltage divider circuit as shown in  
Figure 21. If higher overall system accuracy is required, the sum of total resistance (R1+R2+R3+R4+R5) from  
VREF to GND should be designed to be more than 67 kΩ. A MLCC capacitor with a value of 0.1-µF or larger  
should be attached close to the VREF pin.  
The device also provides 2-bit VID flexible output voltage control. Up to four voltage levels can be programmed  
externally by a voltage divider circuit. V0 corresponds to VID 00, V1 coresponds to VID 01, V2 coresponds to  
VID 10 and V3 coresponds to VID 11. It is not necessary to match the voltage set point (VSET1, VSET2, VSET3 or  
VSET4) to any particular V0, V1, V2 or V3 input. Assignment of the input voltage is entirely dependent on the user  
requirement, which makes the device very easy and flexible to use.  
The device can also be configured to provide 1-bit VID flexible output voltage operation. Up to two voltage levels  
can be programmed externally by a voltage divider circuit. Normally, if 1-bit VID operation is desired, the VID0  
pin is generally used (the VID1 pin should be grounded if not used).  
In the applications where fewer than four input voltage levels are needed, the remaining input voltage pins  
cannot be left floating. Connection from the unused pins to GND is required for proper operation.

Soft-Start and Power Good  
Prior to asserting EN high, the power stage conversion voltage and V5IN voltage should be ready. When EN is  
asserted high, TPS51518 provides soft start to suppress in-rush current during start-up. The soft start action is  
achieved by an internal SLEW current of 10 µA (typ) sourcing into a small external MLCC capacitor connected  
from SLEW pin to GND.  
Use Equation 1 to determine the soft-start timing.

The TPS51518 has a powergood open-drain output that indicates the Vout voltage is within the target range. The  
target voltage window and transition delay times of the PGOOD comparator are ±8% (typ) and 1-ms delaly for  
assertion from low to high, and ±16% (typ) and 0.2-µs delay for de-assertion from high to low during operation.

SLEW and VID Function  
In addition to providing soft start function, SLEW is also used to program the VID transition time. TPS51518  
supports 2-bit VID and 1-bit VID operations. VID0 and VID1 works with 1.05-V logic level signals with capability  
of supporting up to 3.3-V logic high.

functions are resumed 16 internal clock cycles (64 µs) after VID transition is completed.  
Additional SLEW CLAMP is implemented. If severe output short occurs (either to GND or to some other high  
voltage rails in the system), SLEW is engaged into SLEW CLAMP, approximately 50 mV above or below the  
output voltage reference point. After 32 internal clockcycles, the CLAMP is engaged, UVP and OVP functions  
are activated to disable the controller at fault.

Figure 23. D-CAPMode Application  
The transconductance (gM) amplifier and SLEW capacitor (C1) forms an integrator. The ripple voltage generated  
by ESR of the output capacitor is inversed and averaged by the integrator. The small AC component is  
superimposed onto otherwise DC information and forms a reference input at the PWM comparator. As long as  
the integrator time constant is much larger than the inverse of the loop crossover frequency, the AC component  
is negligible. The VSNS voltage is directly compared to the SLEW voltage at the PWM comparator. The PWM  
comparator creates a set signal to turn on the high side MOSFET each cycle.  
The PWM comparator creates a set signal to turn on the high-side MOSFET each cycle. The D-CAPmode  
offers flexibility on output inductance and capacitance selections with ease-of-use without complex feedback loop  
calculation and external components. However, it does require sufficient amount of ESR that represents inductor  
current information for stable operation and good jitter performance. Organic semiconductor capacitor(s) or  
specialty polymer capacitor(s) are recommended.  
The requirement for loop stability is simple and is described in Equation 3. The 0-dB frequency, f0, is  
recommended to be lower than 1/3 of the switching frequency to secure proper phase margin. The integrator  
time constant should be long enough compared to f0, for example one decade low, as described in Equation 4.

Jitter is another attribute caused by signal-to-noise ratio of the feedback signal. One of the major factors that  
determine jitter performance in D-CAPmode is the down-slope angle of the VSNS ripple voltage. Figure 24

Figure 25. Simplified D-CAP2 Mode Architecture  
When TPS51518 operates in D-CAP2 mode, it uses an internal phase compensation network (RC1, RC2, CC1 and  
CC2 and G) to work with very low ESR output capacitors such as multi-layer ceramic capacitors (MLCC). The role  
of such network is to sense and scale the ripple component of the inductor current information and then use it in  
conjunction with the voltage feedback to achieve loop stability of the converter.  
The switching frequency used for D-CAP2 mode is 350 kHz and it is generally recommended to have a unity  
gain crossover (f0) of 1/4 or 1/3 of the switching frequency, which is approximately 90 kHz to 120 kHz for the  
purpose of this application.  
Given the range of the recommended unity gain frequency, the power stage design is flexible, as long as  
Equation 6 is true.

(6)  
When TPS51518 is configured in D-CAP2 mode, the overall loop response is dominated by the internal phase  
compensation network. The compensation network is designed to have two identical zeros at 5.2 kHz in the  
frequency domain, which serves the purpose of splitting the L-C double pole into one low frequency pole (same  
as the L-C double pole frequency) and one high-frequency pole (greater than the unity gain crossover  
frequency).  
Light-Load Operation  
In auto-skip mode, the TPS51518 SMPS control logic automatically reduces its switching frequency to improve  
light-load efficiency. To achieve this intelligence, a zero cross detection comparator is used to prevent negative  
inductor current by turning off the low-side MOSFET. Equation 7 shows the boundary load condition of this skip  
mode and continuous conduction operation.

Out-of-Bound Operation  
When the output voltage rises to 8% above the target value, the out-of-bound operation starts. During the  
out-of-bound condition, the controller operates in forced PWM-only mode. Turning on the low-side MOSFET  
beyond the zero inductor current quickly discharges the output capacitor. During this operation, the  
cycle-by-cycle negative overcurrent limit is also valid. Once the output voltage returns to within regulation range,  
the controller resumes to auto-skip mode.  
Current Sensing  
In order to provide both cost effective solution and good accuracy, TPS51518 supports MOSFET RDS(on) sensing.  
For RDS(on) sensing scheme, TRIP pin should be connected to GND through the trip voltage setting resistor,  
RTRIP. In this scheme, TRIP terminal sources 10µA of ITRIP current (at TA = 25°C) and the trip level is set to 1/8 of  
the voltage across the RTRIP. The inductor current is monitored by the voltage between the GND pin and the SW  
pin so that the SW pin is connected to the drain terminal of the low-side MOSFET. ITRIP has a 4700ppm/°C  
temperature slope to compensate the temperature dependency of the RDS(on). GND is used as the positive  
current sensing node so that GND should be connected to the sense resistor or the source terminal of the  
low-side MOSFET.  
Overcurrent Protection  
TPS51518 has cycle-by-cycle overcurrent limiting protection. The inductor current is monitored during the  
off-state and the controller maintains the off-state when the inductor current is larger than the overcurrent trip  
level. The overcurrent trip level, VOCTRIP, is determined by Equation 8.

Because the comparison is made during the off-state, VOCTRIP sets the valley level of the inductor current. The  
load current OCL level, IOCL, can be calculated by considering the inductor ripple current.

In an overcurrent condition, the current to the load exceeds the current to the output capacitor, thus the output  
voltage tends to fall down. Eventually, it crosses the undervoltage protection threshold and shuts down.  
Overvoltage and Undervoltage Protection  
The TPS51518 sets the overvoltage protection (OVP) when VSNS voltage reaches a level 20% (typ) higher than  
the target voltage. When an OV event is detected, the controller changes the output target voltage to 0 V. This  
usually turns off DRVH and forces DRVL to be on. When the inductor current begins to flow through the low-side  
MOSFET and reaches the negative OCL, DRVL is turned off and DRVH is turned on, for a minimum on-time.  
After the minimum on-time expires, DRVH is turned off and DRVL is turned on again. This action minimizes the  
output node undershoot due to LC resonance. When the VSNS reaches 0 V, the driver output is latched as  
DRVH off, DRVL on.  
The undervoltage protection (UVP) latch is set when the VSNS voltage remains lower than 68% (typ) of the  
REFIN voltage for 1 ms or longer. In this fault condition, the controller latches DRVH low and DRVL low and  
discharges the VOUT. UVP detection function is enabled after 1.2 ms of SMPS operation to ensure startup.  
To release the OVP and UVP latches, toggle EN or adjust the V5IN voltage down and up beyond the  
undervoltage lockout threshold.  
V5IN Undervoltage Lockout Protection  
TPS51518 has a 5-V supply undervoltage lockout protection (UVLO) threshold. When the V5IN voltage is lower  
than UVLO threshold voltage, typically 4.0 V, VOUT is shut off. This is a non-latch protection.

Thermal Shutdown  
TPS51518 includes an internal temperature monitor. If the temperature exceeds the threshold value, 140°C (typ),  
VOUT is shut off. The state of VOUT is open at thermal shutdown. This is a non-latch protection and the operation  
is restarted with soft-start sequence when the device temperature is reduced by 10°C (typ).

VIN capacitor(s), VOUT capacitor(s) and MOSFETs are the power components and should be placed on one  
side of the PCB (solder side). Other small signal components should be placed on another side (component  
side). At least one inner plane should be inserted, connected to ground, in order to shield and isolate the  
small signal traces from noisy power lines.  
All sensitive analog traces and components such as VSNS, SLEW, MODE, V0, V1, V2, V3, VREF and TRIP  
should be placed away from high-voltage switching nodes such as SW, DH, DL or BST to avoid coupling.  
Use internal layer(s) as ground plane(s) and shield feedback trace from power traces and components.  
The DC/DC converter has several high-current loops. The area of these loops should be minimized in order to  
suppress generating switching noise.  
Loop #1. The most important loop to minimize the area of is the path from the VIN capacitor(s) through the  
high and low-side MOSFETs, and back to the capacitor(s) through ground. Connect the negative node of  
the VIN capacitor(s) and the source of the low-side MOSFET at ground as close as possible. (Refer to loop  
#1 of Figure 26)  
Loop #2. The second important loop is the path from the low-side MOSFET through inductor and VOUT  
capacitor(s), and back to source of the low-side MOSFET through ground. Connect source of the low-side  
MOSFET and negative node of VOUT capacitor(s) at ground as close as possible. (Refer to loop #2 of  
Figure 26)  
Loop #3. The third important loop is of gate driving system for the low-side MOSFET. To turn on the  
low-side MOSFET, high current flows from V5 capacitor through gate driver and the low-side MOSFET,  
and back to negative node of the capacitor through ground. To turn off the low-side MOSFET, high current

flows from gate of the low-side MOSFET through the gate driver and PGND, and back to source of the  
low-side MOSFET through ground. Connect negative node of V5 capacitor, source of the low-side  
MOSFET and PGND at ground as close as possible. (Refer to loop #3 of Figure 26)  
VSNS can be connected directly to the output voltage sense point at the load device or the bulk capacitor at  
the converter side. For additional noise filtering, insert a 10-Ω, 1-nF, R-C filter between the sense point and  
the VSNS pin. Connect GSNS to ground return point at the load device or the general ground plane/layer.  
VSNS and GSNS can be used for the purpose of remote sensing across the load device, however, care must  
be taken to minimize the routing trace to prevent excess noise injection to the sense lines.  
Connect the overcurrent setting resistors from TRIP pin to ground and make the connections as close as  
possible to the device. The trace from TRIP pin to resistor and from resistor to ground should avoid coupling  
to a high-voltage switching node.  
Connections from gate drivers to the respective gate of the high-side or the low-side MOSFET should be as  
short as possible to reduce stray inductance. Use 0.65 mm (25 mils) or wider trace and via(s) of at least 0.5  
mm (20 mils) diameter along this trace.  
The PCB trace defined as SW node, which connects to the source of the switching MOSFET, the drain of the  
rectifying MOSFET and the high-voltage side of the inductor, should be as short and wide as possible.  
In order to effectively remove heat from the package, prepare the thermal land and solder to the package  
thermal pad. Wide trace of the component-side copper, connected to this thermal land, helps to dissipate  
heat.Numerous vias with a 0.3-mm diameter connected from the thermal land to the internal/solder-side  
groundplane(s) should be used to help dissipation.

DESIGN PROCEDURE  
The simplified design procedure is done for a system agent rail for IMVP7 Intel platform application using the  
TPS51518 controller.  
Step One: Determine the specifications.  
The system agent rail requirements provide the following key parameters:  
V00 = 0.90 V  
V01 = 0.725 V  
V10 = 0.80 V  
V11 = 0.675 V  
ICC(max) = 6 A  
IDYN(max) = 2 A  
Step Two: Determine system parameters.  
The input voltage range and operating frequency are of primary interest.  
In this example:  
9 V VIN 20 V  
fSW = 350 kHz  
Step Three: Determine inductor value and choose Inductor.  
Smaller values of inductor have better transient performance but higher ripple and lower efficiency. Higher values  
have the opposite characteristics. It is common practice to limit the ripple current to 25% to 50% of the maximum  
current. In this example, use 25%:  
IP-P = 6 A × 0.25 = 1.5 A  
At fSW = 350 kHz with a 20-V input and a 0.80-V output:

For this application, a 1.5-µH, 9.7-mΩ inductor from TDK with part number SPM6530T-1R5M100 is used.  
Step Four: Set the output voltages.  
Set the output voltage levels. for V0, V1, V2 and V3 pins ).  
VID 00, V0 = VSET1 = 0.9 V  
VID 10, V2 = VSET2 = 0.8 V  
VID 01, V1 = VSET3 = 0.725 V  
VID 11, V3 = VSET4 = 0.675 V  
Follow the TPS51518 Design Tool_1.0.xls (in the VID_Config section) to determine the resistor values:  
VREF = 2 V  
R1 = 162 kΩ  
R2 = 14.7 kΩ  
R3 = 11.1 kΩ  
R4 = 7.41 kΩ  
R5 = 100 kΩ

Step Five: Calculate SLEW capacitance.  
SLEW can be used to program the soft-start time and voltage transition timing. During soft-start operation, the  
current source used to program the SLEW rate is 10 µA (nominal). During VID transition, the current source is  
switched to a higher current of 50 µA.  
In this design example, the requirement is to complete VID_00 to VID_11 transition within 20 µs, calculate the  
SLEW capacitance based on Equation 11.

0.9V - 0.675V  
(11)  
For VOUT = 0.9 V, the soft start timing based on CSLEW is 423 µs.  
The slower slew rate is desired to minimize large inductor current perturbation during startup and voltage  
transition, thus reducing the possibility of acoustic noise.  
Step Six  
TPS51518 uses a low-side on-resistance (RDS(on) ) sensing scheme. The TRIP pin sources 10 µA of current and  
the trip level is set to 1/8 of the voltage across the TRIP resistor (RTRIP ). The overcurrent trip level is determined  
by RTRIP × (ITRIP /8). Because the comparison is done during the off state, the trip voltage sets the valley current.  
The load current can be calculated by considering the inductor ripple current.

Step Seven: Determine the output capacitance.  
D-CAPMode  
Organic semiconductor capacitor(s) or specialty polymer capacitor(s) are recommended. Determine the ESR  
value to meet small signal stability and recommended ripple voltage. A quick reference is shown in Equation 13  
and Equation 14.

D-CAP2Mode  
The switching frequency for D-CAP2mode is 350 kHz and it is generally recommend to have a unity gain  
crossover (f0) of 1/4 or 1/3 of the switching frequency, which is approximately 90 kHz to 120kHz for the purpose  
of this application.

Given the range of the recommended unity gain frequency, the power stage design is flexible, as long as the LC  
double pole frequency is less than 10% of f0.

As long as the LC double pole frequency is designed to be less than 1/10 of f0, the internal compensation  
network provides sufficient phase boost at the unity gain crossover frequency in order for the converter to be  
stable with enough margin (> 60°).  
When the ESR frequency of the output bulk capacitor is in the vicinity of the unity gain crossover frequency of  
the loop, additional phase boost is achieved. This applies to POSCAP and/or SPCAP output capacitors.  
When the ESR frequency of the output capacitor is beyond the unity gain crossover frequency of the loop, no  
additional phase boost is achieved. This applies to low/ultra low ESR output capacitors, such as MLCCs.  
Equation 18 and Equation 19 can be used to estimate the amount of capacitance needed for a given dynamic  
load step/release. Note that there are other factors that may impact the amount of output capacitance for a  
specific design, such as ripple and stability. Equation 18 and Equation 19 are used only to estimate the transient  
requirement, the result should be used in conjuction with other factors of the design to determine the necessary  
output capacitance for the application.
