The TPS62270 step down converter operates with typically 2.25 MHz fixed frequency pulse width modulation(PWM) at moderate to heavy load currents. At light load currents the converter automatically enters Power SaveMode and operates then in PFM mode.
During PWM operation the converter use a unique fast response voltage mode controller scheme with inputvoltage feed-forward to achieve good line and load regulation allowing the use of small ceramic input and outputcapacitors. At the beginning of each clock cycle initiated by the clock signal, the High Side MOSFET switch isturned on. The current flows now from the input capacitor via the High Side MOSFET switch through the inductorto the output capacitor and load. During this phase, the current ramps up until the PWM comparator trips and thecontrol logic will turn off the switch. The current limit comparator will also turn off the switch in case the currentlimit of the High Side MOSFET switch is exceeded. After a dead time preventing shoot through current, the LowSide MOSFET rectifier is turned on and the inductor current will ramp down. The current flows now from theinductor to the output capacitor and to the load. It returns back to the inductor through the Low Side MOSFETrectifier.
The next cycle will be initiated by the clock signal again turning off the Low Side MOSFET rectifier and turning onthe on the High Side MOSFET switch.
If the load current decreases, the converter will enter Power Save Mode operation automatically. During PowerSave Mode the converter skips switching and operates with reduced frequency in PFM mode with a minimumquiescent current to maintain high efficiency.
The transition from PWM mode to PFM mode occurs once the inductor current in the Low Side MOSFET switchbecomes zero, which indicates discontinuous conduction mode.
During the Power Save Mode the output voltage is monitored with a PFM comparator. As the output voltage fallsbelow the PFM comparator threshold of VOUT +1%, the device starts a PFM current pulse. For this the HighSide MOSFET switch will turn on and the inductor current ramps up. After the On-time expires the switch will beturned off and the Low Side MOSFET switch will be turned on until the inductor current becomes zero.
The converter effectively delivers a current to the output capacitor and the load. If the load is below the deliveredcurrent the output voltage will rise. If the output voltage is equal or higher than the PFM comparator threshold,the device stops switching and enters a sleep mode with typical 15 µA current consumption.
In case the output voltage is still below the PFM comparator threshold, further PFM current pulses will begenerated until the PFM comparator threshold is reached. The converter starts switching again once the outputvoltage drops below the PFM comparator threshold.
With a fast single threshold comparator, the output voltage ripple during PFM mode operation can be kept verysmall. The PFM Pulse is timing controlled, which allows to modify the charge transferred to the output capacitorby the value of the inductor. The resulting PFM output voltage ripple depends in first order on the size of theoutput capacitor and the inductor value. Increasing output capacitor values and/or inductor values will minimizethe output ripple.
The PFM mode is left and PWM mode entered in case the output current can not longer be supported in PFMmode.

The device starts to enter 100% duty cycle Mode once the input voltage comes close the nominal output voltage.In order to maintain the output voltage, the High Side MOSFET switch is turned on 100% for one or more cycles.
With further decreasing VIN the High Side MOSFET switch is turned on completely. In this case the converteroffers a low input-to-output voltage difference. This is particularly useful in battery-powered applications toachieve longest operation time by taking full advantage of the whole battery voltage range.

The undervoltage lockout circuit prevents the device from malfunctioning at low input voltages and fromexcessive discharge of the battery and disables the output stage of the converter. The undervoltage lockoutthreshold is typically 1.85V with falling V

.
The VSEL pin features output voltage selection. The output voltages are set with an internal high precisionfeedback divider network. No further external components for output voltage setting or compensation arerequired. This features smallest solution size.
Connecting the VSEL pin to an external logic control signal allows simple dynamic voltage scaling for low powerprocessors cores. During operation of the device, the output voltage can be changed with VSEL pin.
This allows setting the core voltage of an processor according to its operating mode and helps to optimize powerconsumption. Table 1 shows an overview of the selectable output voltages.

The EN pin can be connected to the output of another converter, to drivethe EN pin high and getting a sequencing of supply rails.
The TPS62270 has an internal soft start circuit that controls the ramp up of the output voltage. The outputvoltage ramps up from 5% to 95% of its nominal value within typ. 250 µs. This limits the inrush current in theconverter during start up and prevents possible input voltage drops when a battery or high impedance powersource is used.

Figure 25. TPS62270DRV Application Circuit
The TPS62270 is designed to operate with inductors in the range of 1.5 µH to 4.7 µH and with output capacitors inthe range of 4.7 µF to 22 µF. The part is optimized for operation with a 2.2 µH inductor and 10 µF output capacitor.Larger or smaller inductor values can be used to optimize the performance of the device for specific operationconditions. For stable operation, the L and C values of the output filter may not fall below 1 µH effectiveinductance and 3.5 µF effective capacitance.
The inductor value has a direct effect on the ripple current. The selected inductor has to be rated for its dcresistance and saturation current. The inductor ripple current ( ΔI
L
) decreases with higher inductance andincreases with higher V
I
or V
O
.
The inductor selection has also impact on the output voltage ripple in PFM mode. Higher inductor values will leadto lower output voltage ripple and higher PFM frequency, lower inductor values will lead to a higher outputvoltage ripple but lower PFM frequency.
Equation 1 calculates the maximum inductor current under static load conditions. The saturation current of theinductor should be rated higher than the maximum inductor current as calculated with Equation 2 . This isrecommended because during heavy load transient the inductor current will rise above the calculated value.
With:
f = Switching Frequency (2.25 MHz typical)L = Inductor ValueΔI
L
= Peak to Peak inductor ripple currentI
Lmax
= Maximum Inductor current
A more conservative approach is to select the inductor current rating just for the maximum switch current of thecorresponding converter.
Accepting larger values of ripple current allows the use of low inductance values, but results in higher outputvoltage ripple, greater core losses, and lower output current capability.
The total losses of the coil have a strong impact on the efficiency of the DC/DC conversion and consist of boththe losses in the dc resistance (R
(DC)
) and the following frequency-dependent components:The losses in the core material (magnetic hysteresis loss, especially at high switching frequencies)Additional losses in the conductor from the skin effect (current displacement at high frequencies)Magnetic field losses of the neighboring windings (proximity effect)Radiation losses

The advanced fast-response voltage mode control scheme of the TPS62270 allows the use of tiny ceramiccapacitors. Ceramic capacitors with low ESR values have the lowest output voltage ripple and arerecommended. The output capacitor requires either an X7R or X5R dielectric. Y5V and Z5U dielectric capacitors,aside from their wide variation in capacitance over temperature, become resistive at high frequencies.
At nominal load current, the device operates in PWM mode and the RMS ripple current is calculated as:
At nominal load current, the device operates in PWM mode and the overall output voltage ripple is the sum of thevoltage spike caused by the output capacitor ESR plus the voltage ripple caused by charging and discharging theoutput capacitor:
At light load currents the converter operates in Power Save Mode and the output voltage ripple is dependent onthe output capacitor and inductor value. Larger output capacitor and inductor values minimize the voltage ripplein PFM mode and tighten DC output accuracy in PFM mode.
An input capacitor is required for best input voltage filtering, and minimizing the interference with other circuitscaused by high input voltage spikes. For most applications, a 4.7 µF to 10 µF ceramic capacitor is recommended.Because ceramic capacitor loses up to 80% of its initial capacitance at 5 V, it is recommended that 10 µF inputcapacitors be used for input voltages >4.5V. The input capacitor can be increased without any limit for betterinput voltage filtering. Take care when using only small ceramic input capacitors. When a ceramic capacitor isused at the input and the power is being supplied through long wires, such as from a wall adapter, a load step atthe output or VIN step on the input can induce ringing at the VIN pin. This ringing can couple to the output andbe mistaken as loop instability or could even damage the part by exceeding the maximum ratings.

As for all switching power supplies, the layout is an important step in the design. Proper function of the devicedemands careful attention to PCB layout. Care must be taken in board layout to get the specified performance. Ifthe layout is not carefully done, the regulator could show poor line and/or load regulation, stability issues as wellas EMI problems. It is critical to provide a low inductance, impedance ground path. Therefore, use wide andshort traces for the main current paths. The input capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the IC pinsas well as the inductor and output capacitor.
Connect the GND Pin of the device to the PowerPad™ of the PCB and use this pad as a star point. Use acommon Power GND node and a different node for the Signal GND to minimize the effects of ground noise.Connect these ground nodes together to the PowerPad™ (star point) underneath the IC. Keep the common pathto the GND PIN, which returns the small signal components and the high current of the output capacitors asshort as possible to avoid ground noise. The FB line should be connected right to the output capacitor and routedaway from noisy components and traces (e.g., SW line).
