These modules represent the 2nd generation of the popular PTH series power modules and include a reduced footprint and improved features. The PTH08T221W is optimized to be used with all ceramic capacitors. Operating from an input voltage range of 4.5 V to 14 V, the PTH08T220/221W requires a single resistor to set the output voltage to any value over the range, 0.69 V to 5.5 V. The wide input voltage range makes the PTH08T220/221W particularly suitable for advanced computing and server applications that utilize a loosely regulated 8-V to 12-V intermediate distribution bus. Additionally, the wide input voltage range increases design flexibility by supporting operation with tightly regulated 5-V, 8-V, or 12-V intermediate bus architectures. The module incorporates a comprehensive list of features. Output over-current and over-temperature shutdown protects against most load faults. A differential remote sense ensures tight load regulation. An adjustable under-voltage lockout allows the turn-on voltage threshold to be customized. Auto-TrackTM sequencing is a popular feature that greatly simplifies the simultaneous power-up and power-down of multiple modules in a power system. The PTH08T220/221W includes new patent pending technologies, TurboTransTM and SmartSync. The TurboTrans feature optimizes the transient response of the regulator while simultaneously reducing the quantity of external output capacitors required to meet a target voltage deviation specification. Additionally, for a target output capacitor bank, TurboTrans can be used to significantly improve the regulators transient response by reducing the peak voltage deviation. SmartSync allows for switching frequency synchronization of multiple modules, thus simplifying EMI noise suppression tasks and reducing input capacitor RMS current requirements. The module uses double-sided surface mount construction to provide a low profile and compact footprint. Package options include both through-hole and surface mount configurations that are lead (Pb) - free and RoHS compatible. 1 2 Please be aware that an important notice concerning availability, standard warranty, and use in critical applications of Texas Instruments semiconductor products and disclaimers thereto appears at the end of this data sheet.

DESCRIPTION VI 2 The positive input voltage power node to the module, which is referenced to common GND. VO 5 The regulated positive power output with respect to GND. GND 3, 4 Inhibit (1) and UVLO Vo Adjust 11 This is the common ground connection for the VI and VO power connections. It is also the 0 Vdc reference for the control inputs. The Inhibit pin is an open-collector/drain, negative logic input that is referenced to GND. Applying a low level ground signal to this input disables the module's output and turns off the output voltage. When the Inhibit control is active, the input current drawn by the regulator is significantly reduced. If the Inhibit pin is left open-circuit, the module produces an output whenever a valid input source is applied. This pin is also used for input undervoltage lockout (UVLO) programming. Connecting a resistor from this pin to GND (pin 3) allows the ON threshold of the UVLO to be adjusted higher than the default value. For more information, see the Application Information section. 8 A 0.05 W 1% resistor must be directly connected between this pin and pin7 (-Sense) to set the output voltage to a value higher than 0.69V. The temperature stability of the resistor should be 100 ppm/C (or better). The setpoint range for the output voltage is from 0.69V to 5.5V. If left open circuit, the output voltage will default to its lowest value. For further information, on output voltage adjustment see the related application note. The specification table gives the preferred resistor values for a number of standard output voltages. + Sense 6 The sense input allows the regulation circuit to compensate for voltage drop between the module and the load. The +Sense pin should always be connected to VO, either at the load for optimal voltage accuracy, or at the module (pin 5). - Sense 7 The sense input allows the regulation circuit to compensate for voltage drop between the module and the load. For optimal voltage accuracy -Sense must be connected to GND (pin4) very close to the module (within 10cm). 10 This is an analog control input that enables the output voltage to follow an external voltage. This pin becomes active typically 20 ms after the input voltage has been applied, and allows direct control of the output voltage from 0 V up to the nominal set-point voltage. Within this range the module's output voltage follows the voltage at the Track pin on a volt-for-volt basis. When the control voltage is raised above this range, the module regulates at its set-point voltage. The feature allows the output voltage to rise simultaneously with other modules powered from the same input bus. If unused, this input should be connected to VI. Track NOTE: Due to the undervoltage lockout feature, the output of the module cannot follow its own input voltage during power up. For more information, see the related application note. TurboTransTM SmartSync (1) 9 This input pin adjusts the transient response of the regulator. To activate the TurboTransTM feature, a 1%, 50mW resistor, must be connected between this pin and pin 6 (+Sense) very close to the module. For a given value of output capacitance, a reduction in peak output voltage deviation is achieved by utililizing this feature. If unused, this pin must be left open-circuit. The resistance requirement can be selected from the TurboTrans resistor table in the Application Information section. External capacitance must never be connected to this pin unless the TurboTrans resistor value is a short, 0. 1 This input pin sychronizes the switching frequency of the module to an external clock frequency. The SmartSync feature can be used to sychronize the switching fequency of multiple PTH08T220/221W modules, aiding EMI noise suppression efforts. If unused, this pin should be connected to GND (pin3).

SLTS252K - NOVEMBER 2005 - REVISED JUNE 2009 APPLICATION INFORMATION ADJUSTING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE The Vo Adjust control (pin 8) sets the output voltage of the PTH08T220/221W. The adjustment range of the PTH08T220/221W is 0.69 V to 5.5 V. The adjustment method requires the addition of a single external resistor, RSET, that must be connected directly between the Vo Adjust and - Sense pins. Table 1 gives the standard value of the external resistor for a number of standard voltages, along with the actual output voltage that this resistance value provides. For other output voltages, the value of the required resistor can either be calculated using the following formula, or simply selected from the range of values given in Table 2. Figure 12 shows the placement of the required resistor. RSET = 10 kW x 0.69 - 1.43 kW VO - 0.69 (1) Table 1.

SLTS252K - NOVEMBER 2005 - REVISED JUNE 2009 CAPACITOR RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PTH08T220/221W POWER MODULE Capacitor Technologies Electrolytic Capacitors When using electrolytic capacitors, high quality, computer-grade electrolytic capacitors are recommended. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors provide adequate decoupling over the frequency range, 2 kHz to 150 kHz, and are suitable when ambient temperatures are above -20C. For operation below -20C, tantalum, ceramic, or OS-CON type capacitors are required. Ceramic Capacitors Above 150 kHz the performance of aluminum electrolytic capacitors is less effective. Multilayer ceramic capacitors have very low ESR and a resonant frequency higher than the bandwidth of the regulator. They can be used to reduce the reflected ripple current at the input as well as improve the transient response of the output. Tantalum, Polymer-Tantalum Capacitors Tantalum type capacitors may only used on the output bus, and are recommended for applications where the ambient operating temperature is less than 0C. The AVX TPS series and Kemet capacitor series are suggested over many other tantalum types due to their lower ESR, higher rated surge, power dissipation, and ripple current capability. Tantalum capacitors that have no stated ESR or surge current rating are not recommended for power applications. Input Capacitor (Required) The PTH08T221W requires a minimum input capacitance of 300F of ceramic type. The PTH08T220W requires a combination of one 22F X5R/X7R ceramic and 330F electrolytic type. The ripple current rating of the electrolytic capacitor must be at least 950mArms. The ripple current rating must increase to 1500mArms when VO>2.1 V and IO11A. Input Capacitor Information The size and value of the input capacitor is determined by the converter's transient performance capability. This minimum value assumes that the converter is supplied with a responsive, low inductance input source. This source should have ample capacitive decoupling, and be distributed to the converter via PCB power and ground planes. Ceramic capacitors should be located as close as possible to the module's input pins, within 0.5 inch (1,3 cm). Adding ceramic capacitance is necessary to reduce the high-frequency ripple voltage at the module's input. This will reduce the magnitude of the ripple current through the electroytic capacitor, as well as the amount of ripple current reflected back to the input source. Additional ceramic capacitors can be added to further reduce the RMS ripple current requirement for the electrolytic capacitor. Increasing the minimum input capacitance to 680F is recommended for high-performance applications, or wherever the input source performance is degraded. The main considerations when selecting input capacitors are the RMS ripple current rating, temperature stability, and less than 100 m of equivalent series resistance (ESR). Regular tantalum capacitors are not recommended for the input bus. These capacitors require a recommended minimum voltage rating of 2 x (maximum dc voltage + ac ripple). This is standard practice to ensure reliability. No tantalum capacitors were found with a sufficient voltage rating to meet this requirement. When the operating temperature is below 0C, the ESR of aluminum electrolytic capacitors increases. For these applications, OS-CON, poly-aluminum, and polymer-tantalum types should be considered.

The PTH08T220W requires a minimum output capacitance of 220F of aluminum, polymer-aluminum, tantulum, or polymer-tantalum type. The required capacitance above the minimum will be determined by actual transient deviation requirements. See the TurboTrans Technology application section within this document for specific capacitance selection. Output Capacitor Information When selecting output capacitors, the main considerations are capacitor type, temperature stability, and ESR. When using the TurboTrans feature, the capacitance X ESR product should also be considered (see the following section). Ceramic output capacitors added for high-frequency bypassing should be located as close as possible to the load to be effective. Ceramic capacitor values below 10F should not be included when calculating the total output capacitance value. When the operating temperature is below 0C, the ESR of aluminum electrolytic capacitors increases. For these applications, OS-CON, poly-aluminum, and polymer-tantalum types should be considered. TurboTrans Output Capacitance TurboTrans allows the designer to optimize the output capacitance according to the system transient design requirement. High quality, ultra-low ESR capacitors are required to maximize TurboTrans effectiveness. When using TurboTrans, the capacitor's capacitance (F) x ESR (m) product determines its capacitor type; Type A, B, or C. These three types are defined as follows: Type A = (100 capacitance x ESR 1000) (e.g. ceramic) Type B = (1000 < capacitance x ESR 5000) (e.g. polymer-tantalum) Type C = (5000 < capacitance x ESR 10,000) (e.g. OS-CON) When using more than one type of output capacitor, select the capacitor type that makes up the majority of your total output capacitance. When calculating the CxESR product, use the maximum ESR value from the capacitor manufacturer's datasheet. The PTH08T221W should be used when only Type A (ceramic) capacitors are used on the output. Working Examples: A capacitor with a capacitance of 330F and an ESR of 5m, has a CxESR product of 1650Fxm (330F x 5m). This is a Type B capacitor. A capacitor with a capacitance of 1000F and an ESR of 8m, has a CxESR product of 8000Fxm (1000F x 8m). This is a Type C capacitor. See the TurboTrans Technology application section within this document for specific capacitance selection. Table 3 includes a preferred list of capacitors by type and vendor. See the Output Bus / TurboTrans column. Non-TurboTrans Output Capacitance If the TurboTrans feature is not used, minimum ESR and maximum capacitor limits must be followed. System stability may be effected and increased output capacitance may be required without TurboTrans. When using the PTH08T220W, observe the minimum ESR of the entire output capacitor bank. The minimum ESR limit of the output capacitor bank is 7m. A list of preferred low-ESR type capacitors, are identified in Table 3. When using the PTH08T221W without the TurboTrans feature, the maximum amount of capacitance is 3000F of ceramic type. Large amounts of capacitance may reduce system stability. Utilizing the TurboTrans feature improves system stability, improves transient response, and reduces the amount of output capacitance required to meet system transient design requirements. 14 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2005-2009, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Link(s): PTH08T220W PTH08T221W PTH08T220W, PTH08T221W www.ti.com................................................................................................................................................... SLTS252K - NOVEMBER 2005 - REVISED JUNE 2009 Designing for Fast Load Transients The transient response of the dc/dc converter has been characterized using a load transient with a di/dt of 2.5A/s. The typical voltage deviation for this load transient is given in the Electrical Characteristics table using the minimum required value of output capacitance. As the di/dt of a transient is increased, the response of a converter's regulation circuit ultimately depends on its output capacitor decoupling network. This is an inherent limitation with any dc/dc converter once the speed of the transient exceeds its bandwidth capability. If the target application specifies a higher di/dt or lower voltage deviation, the requirement can only be met with additional low ESR ceramic capacitor decoupling. Generally, with load steps greater than 100A/s, adding multiple 10F ceramic capacitors plus 10x1F, and numerous high frequency ceramics (0.1F) is all that is required to soften the transient higher frequency edges. The PCB location of these capacitors in relation to the load is critical. DSP, FPGA and ASIC vendors identify types, location and amount of capacitance required for optimum performance. Low impedance buses, unbroken PCB copper planes, and components located as close as possible to the high frequency devices are essential for optimizing transient performance. Capacitor Table Table 3 identifies the characteristics of acceptable capacitors from a number of vendors. The recommended number of capacitors required at both the input and output buses is identified for each capacitor. This is not an extensive capacitor list. Capacitors from other vendors are available with comparable specifications. Those listed are for guidance. The RMS ripple current rating and ESR (at 100 kHz) are critical parameters necessary to ensure both optimum regulator performance and long capacitor life. Table 3.

SLTS252K - NOVEMBER 2005 - REVISED JUNE 2009 TurboTransTM Technology TurboTrans technology is a feature introduced in the T2 generation of the PTH/PTV family of power modules. TurboTrans optimizes the transient response of the regulator with added external capacitance using a single external resistor. Benefits of this technology include reduced output capacitance, minimized output voltage deviation following a load transient, and enhanced stability when using ultra-low ESR output capacitors. The amount of output capacitance required to meet a target output voltage deviation will be reduced with TurboTrans activated. Likewise, for a given amount of output capacitance, with TurboTrans engaged, the amplitude of the voltage deviation following a load transient will be reduced. Applications requiring tight transient voltage tolerances and minimized capacitor footprint area will benefit greatly from this technology. TurboTransTM Selection Utilizing TurboTrans requires connecting a resistor, RTT, between the +Sense pin (pin6) and the TurboTrans pin (pin9). The value of the resistor directly corresponds to the amount of output capacitance required. All T2 products require a minimum value of output capacitance whether or not TurboTrans is utilized. For the PTH08T220W, the minimum required capacitance is 220F. The minimum required capacitance for the PTH08T221W is 300F of ceramic type. When using TurboTrans, capacitors with a capacitance x ESR product below 10,000 Fxm are required. (Multiply the capacitance (in F) by the ESR (in m) to determine the capacitance x ESR product.) See the Capacitor Selection section of the datasheet for a variety of capacitors that meet this criteria. Figure 13 thru Figure 18 show the amount of output capacitance required to meet a desired transient voltage deviation with and without TurboTrans for several capacitor types; TypeA (e.g. ceramic), TypeB (e.g. polymer-tantalum), and TypeC (e.g. OS-CON). To calculate the proper value of RTT, first determine your required transient voltage deviation limits and magnitude of your transient load step. Next, determine what type of output capacitors will be used. (If more than one type of output capacitor is used, select the capacitor type that makes up the majority of your total output capacitance.) Knowing this information, use the chart in Figure 13 thru Figure 18 that corresponds to the capacitor type selected. To use the chart, begin by dividing the maximum voltage deviation limit (in mV) by the magnitude of your load step (in Amps). This gives a mV/A value. Find this value on the Y-axis of the appropriate chart. Read across the graph to the 'With TurboTrans' plot. From this point, read down to the X-axis which lists the minimum required capacitance, CO, to meet that transient voltage deviation. The required RTT resistor value can then be calculated using the equation or selected from the TurboTrans table. The TurboTrans tables include both the required output capacitance and the corresponding RTT values to meet several values of transient voltage deviation for 25%(4A), 50%(8A), and 75%(12A) output load steps. The chart can also be used to determine the achievable transient voltage deviation for a given amount of output capacitance. Selecting the amount of output capacitance along the X-axis, reading up to the 'With TurboTrans' curve, and then over to the Y-axis, gives the transient voltage deviation limit for that value of output capacitance. The required RTT resistor value can be calculated using the equation or selected from the TurboTrans table. As an example, let's look at a 12-V application requiring a 40 mV deviation during an 8A, 50% load transient. A majority of 330F, 10m ouput capacitors will be used. Use the 12 V, Type B capacitor chart, Figure 15. Dividing 40mV by 8A gives 5mV/A transient voltage deviation per amp of transient load step. Select 5mV/A on the Y-axis and read across to the 'With TurboTrans' plot. Following this point down to the X-axis gives us a minimum required output capacitance of approximately 800F. The required RTT resistor value for 800F can then be calculated or selected from Table 5. The required RTT resistor is approximately 4.12k.

The UVLO feature prevents the operation of the module until there is sufficient input voltage to produce a valid output voltage. This enables the module to provide a clean, monotonic powerup for the load circuit, and also limits the magnitude of current drawn from the regulator's input source during the power-up sequence. The UVLO characteristic is defined by the ON threshold (VTHD) voltage. Below the ON threshold, the Inhibit control is overridden, and the module does not produce an output. The hysteresis voltage, which is the difference between the ON and OFF threshold voltages, is set at 500 mV. The hysteresis prevents start-up oscillations, which can occur if the input voltage droops slightly when the module begins drawing current from the input source. The UVLO feature of the PTH08T220/221W module allows for limited adjustment of the ON threshold voltage. The adjustment is made via the Inhbit/UVLO Prog control pin (pin 11) using a single resistor (see Figure 21). When pin 11 is left open circuit, the ON threshold voltage is internally set to its default value, which is 4.3 volts. The ON threshold might need to be raised if the module is powered from a tightly regulated 12-V bus. Adjusting the threshold prevents the module from operating if the input bus fails to completely rise to its specified regulation voltage. Equation 5 determines the value of RUVLO required to adjust VTHD to a new value. The default value is 4.3 V, and it may only be adjusted to a higher value.

SLTS252K - NOVEMBER 2005 - REVISED JUNE 2009 Soft-Start Power Up The Auto-Track feature allows the power-up of multiple PTH/PTV modules to be directly controlled from the Track pin.

Defeating the Auto-Track Function When the Track pin is connected to the input voltage the Auto-Track function is permanently disengaged. This allows the module to power up entirely under the control of its internal soft-start circuitry. When power up is under soft-start control, the output voltage rises to the set-point at a quicker and more linear rate. From the moment a valid input voltage is applied, the soft-start control introduces a short time delay (typically 2 ms-10 ms) before allowing the output voltage to rise.

The waveforms were measured with a 10-A constant current load and the Auto-Track feature disabled. The initial rise in input current when the input voltage first starts to rise is the charge current drawn by the input capacitors. Power-up is complete within 15 ms.

The inhibit feature can be used wherever there is a requirement for the output voltage from the regulator to be turned off. The power modules function normally when the Inhibit pin is left open-circuit, providing a regulated output whenever a valid source voltage is connected to VI with respect to GND. Figure 24 shows the typical application of the inhibit function. Note the discrete transistor (Q1). The Inhibit input has its own internal pull-up. An external pull-up resistor should never be used with the inhibit pin. The input is not compatible with TTL logic devices.

SLTS252K - NOVEMBER 2005 - REVISED JUNE 2009 Overcurrent Protection For protection against load faults, all modules incorporate output overcurrent protection. Applying a load that exceeds the regulator's overcurrent threshold causes the regulated output to shut down. Following shutdown, the module periodically attempts to recover by initiating a soft-start power-up. This is described as a hiccup mode of operation, whereby the module continues in a cycle of successive shutdown and power up until the load fault is removed. During this period, the average current flowing into the fault is significantly reduced. Once the fault is removed, the module automatically recovers and returns to normal operation. Overtemperature Protection (OTP) A thermal shutdown mechanism protects the module's internal circuitry against excessively high temperatures. A rise in the internal temperature may be the result of a drop in airflow, or a high ambient temperature. If the internal temperature exceeds the OTP threshold, the module's Inhibit control is internally pulled low. This turns the output off. The output voltage drops as the external output capacitors are discharged by the load circuit. The recovery is automatic, and begins with a soft-start power up. It occurs when the sensed temperature decreases by about 10C below the trip point. The overtemperature protection is a last resort mechanism to prevent thermal stress to the regulator. Operation at or close to the thermal shutdown temperature is not recommended and reduces the long-term reliability of the module. Always operate the regulator within the specified safe operating area (SOA) limits for the worst-case conditions of ambient temperature and airflow. Differential Output Voltage Remote Sense Differential remote sense improves the load regulation performance of the module by allowing it to compensate for any IR voltage drop between its output and the load in either the positive or return path. An IR drop is caused by the output current flowing through the small amount of pin and trace resistance. With the sense pins connected, the difference between the voltage measured directly between the VO and GND pins, and that measured at the Sense pins, is the amount of IR drop being compensated by the regulator. This should be limited to a maximum of 0.3V. Connecting the +Sense (pin 6) to the positive load terminal improves the load regulation at the connection point. For optimal behavior the -Sense (pin 7) must be connected to GND (pin 4) close to the module (within 10 cm). If the remote sense feature is not used at the load, connect the +Sense pin to VO (pin5) and connect the -Sense pin to the module GND (pin 4). The remote sense feature is not designed to compensate for the forward drop of nonlinear or frequency dependent components that may be placed in series with the converter output. Examples include OR-ing diodes, filter inductors, ferrite beads, and fuses. When these components are enclosed by the remote sense connection they are effectively placed inside the regulation control loop, which can adversely affect the stability of the regulator.

Driving the Smart Sync pins with an external oscillator set to the desired frequency, synchronizes all connected modules to the selected frequency. The synchronization frequency can be higher or lower than the nominal switching frequency of the modules within the range of 240 kHz to 400 kHz. Synchronizing modules powered from the same bus eliminates beat frequencies reflected back to the input supply, and also reduces EMI filtering requirements. Eliminating the low beat frequencies (usually<10kHz) allows the EMI filter to be designed to attenuate only the synchronization frequency. Power modules can also be synchronized out of phase to minimize ripple current and reduce input capacitance requirements.

SLTS252K - NOVEMBER 2005 - REVISED JUNE 2009 Smart Sync Considerations Operating the PTH08T220W with a low duty cycle may increase the output voltage ripple due to pulse skipping of the PWM controller. When operating at the nominal switching frequency, input voltages greater than (VO x 11) may cause the output voltage ripple to increase (typically 2x). Synchronizing to a higher frequency and operating with a low duty cycle may impact output voltage ripple. When operating at 300 kHz, Figure 27 shows the operating region where the output voltage ripple meets the electrical specifications and the operating region where the output voltage ripple may increase. Figure 28 shows the operating regions for several switching frequencies. For example, a module operating at 400 kHz and an output voltage of 1.2 V, the maximum input voltage that meets the output voltage ripple specification is 10 V. Exceeding 10 V may cause in an increase in output voltage ripple. As shown in Figure 28, operating below 6V allows operation down to the minimum output voltage over the entire synchronization frequency range without affecting the output voltage ripple.

Operation above a given curve may cause the output voltage ripple to increase (typically 2x). Auto-TrackTM Function The Auto-Track function is unique to the PTH/PTV family, and is available with all POLA products. Auto-Track was designed to simplify the amount of circuitry required to make the output voltage from each module power up and power down in sequence. The sequencing of two or more supply voltages during power up is a common requirement for complex mixed-signal applications that use dual-voltage VLSI ICs such as the TMS320TM DSP family, microprocessors, and ASICs. How Auto-TrackTM Works Auto-Track works by forcing the module output voltage to follow a voltage presented at the Track control pin (1). This control range is limited to between 0 V and the module set-point voltage. Once the track-pin voltage is raised above the set-point voltage, the module output remains at its set-point (2). As an example, if the Track pin of a 2.5-V regulator is at 1 V, the regulated output is 1 V. If the voltage at the Track pin rises to 3 V, the regulated output does not go higher than 2.5 V. When under Auto-Track control, the regulated output from the module follows the voltage at its Track pin on a Copyright (c) 2005-2009, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Link(s): PTH08T220W PTH08T221W Submit Documentation Feedback 27 PTH08T220W, PTH08T221W SLTS252K - NOVEMBER 2005 - REVISED JUNE 2009................................................................................................................................................... www.ti.com volt-for-volt basis. By connecting the Track pin of a number of these modules together, the output voltages follow a common signal during power up and power down. The control signal can be an externally generated master ramp waveform, or the output voltage from another power supply circuit (3). For convenience, the Track input incorporates an internal RC-charge circuit. This operates off the module input voltage to produce a suitable rising waveform at power up. Typical Application The basic implementation of Auto-Track allows for simultaneous voltage sequencing of a number of Auto-Track compliant modules. Connecting the Track inputs of two or more modules forces their track input to follow the same collective RC-ramp waveform, and allows their power-up sequence to be coordinated from a common Track control signal. This can be an open-collector (or open-drain) device, such as a power-up reset voltage supervisor IC. See U3 in Figure 29. To coordinate a power-up sequence, the Track control must first be pulled to ground potential. This should be done at or before input power is applied to the modules. The ground signal should be maintained for at least 20 ms after input power has been applied. This brief period gives the modules time to complete their internal soft-start initialization (4), enabling them to produce an output voltage. A low-cost supply voltage supervisor IC, that includes a built-in time delay, is an ideal component for automatically controlling the Track inputs at power up. Figure 29 shows how the TL7712A supply voltage supervisor IC (U3) can be used to coordinate the sequenced power up of PTH08T220/221W modules. The output of the TL7712A supervisor becomes active above an input voltage of 3.6 V, enabling it to assert a ground signal to the common track control well before the input voltage has reached the module's undervoltage lockout threshold. The ground signal is maintained until approximately 28 ms after the input voltage has risen above U3's voltage threshold, which is 4.3 V. The 28-ms time period is controlled by the capacitor CT. The value of 2.2 F provides sufficient time delay for the modules to complete their internal soft-start initialization. The output voltage of each module remains at zero until the track control voltage is allowed to rise. When U3 removes the ground signal, the track control voltage automatically rises. This causes the output voltage of each module to rise simultaneously with the other modules, until each reaches its respective set-point voltage. Figure 30 shows the output voltage waveforms after input voltage is applied to the circuit. The waveforms, VO1 and VO2, represent the output voltages from the two power modules, U1 (3.3 V) and U2 (1.8 V), respectively. VTRK, VO1, and VO2 are shown rising together to produce the desired simultaneous power-up characteristic. The same circuit also provides a power-down sequence. When the input voltage falls below U3's voltage threshold, the ground signal is re-applied to the common track control. This pulls the track inputs to zero volts, forcing the output of each module to follow, as shown in Figure 31. Power down is normally complete before the input voltage has fallen below the modules' undervoltage lockout. This is an important constraint. Once the modules recognize that an input voltage is no longer present, their outputs can no longer follow the voltage applied at their track input. During a power-down sequence, the fall in the output voltage from the modules is limited by the Auto-Track slew rate capability. Notes on Use of Auto-TrackTM 1. The Track pin voltage must be allowed to rise above the module set-point voltage before the module regulates at its adjusted set-point voltage. 2. The Auto-Track function tracks almost any voltage ramp during power up, and is compatible with ramp speeds of up to 1 V/ms. 3. The absolute maximum voltage that may be applied to the Track pin is the input voltage VI. 4. The module cannot follow a voltage at its track control input until it has completed its soft-start initialization. This takes about 20 ms from the time that a valid voltage has been applied to its input. During this period, it is recommended that the Track pin be held at ground potential. 5. The Auto-Track function is disabled by connecting the Track pin to the input voltage (VI). When Auto-Track is disabled, the output voltage rises according to its softstart rate after input power has been applied. 6. The Auto-Track pin should never be used to regulate the module's output voltage for long-term, steady-state operation. 28 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2005-2009, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Link(s): PTH08T220W PTH08T221W PTH08T220W, PTH08T221W www.ti.com...................................................................................................................................................

This often occurs in complex digital systems when current from another power source is backfed through a dual-supply logic component, such as an FPGA or ASIC. Another path might be via clamp diodes as part of a dual-supply power-up sequencing arrangement. A prebias can cause problems with power modules that incorporate synchronous rectifiers. This is because under most operating conditions, these types of modules can sink as well as source output current. The PTH family of power modules incorporate synchronous rectifiers, but does not sink current during startup(1), or whenever the Inhibit pin is held low. However, to ensure satisfactory operation of this function, certain conditions must be maintained(2). Figure 33 shows an application demonstrating the prebias startup capability. The startup waveforms are shown in Figure 32. Note that the output current (IO) is negligible until the output voltage rises above the voltage backfed through the intrinsic diodes. The prebias start-up feature is not compatible with Auto-Track. When the module is under Auto-Track control, it sinks current if the output voltage is below that of a back-feeding source. To ensure a pre-bias hold-off one of two approaches must be followed when input power is applied to the module. The Auto-Track function must either be disabled(3), or the module's output held off (for at least 50 ms) using the Inhibit pin. Either approach ensures that the Track pin voltage is above the set-point voltage at start up. 1. Startup includes the short delay (approximately 10 ms) prior to the output voltage rising, followed by the rise of the output voltage under the module's internal soft-start control. Startup is complete when the output voltage has risen to either the set-point voltage or the voltage at the Track pin, whichever is lowest. 2. To ensure that the regulator does not sink current when power is first applied (even with a ground signal applied to the Inhibit control pin), the input voltage must always be greater than the output voltage throughout the power-up and power-down sequence. 3. The Auto-Track function can be disabled at power up by immediately applying a voltage to the module's Track pin that is greater than its set-point voltage. This can be easily accomplished by connecting the Track pin to VI. VIN (1 V/div) VO (1 V/div) IO (2 A/div) t - Time - 4 ms/div Figure 32.
