APPLICATION INFORMATION

Figure 9 shows the schematic diagram for a typical TPS54810 application. The TPS54810 (U1) can provide up to 8 A of output current at a nominal output voltage of

1.8V. For proper thermal performance, the PowerPAD underneath the integrated circuit TPS54810 needs to be soldered well to the printed-circuit board.

COMPONENT SELECTION

The values for the components used in this design example were selected for low output ripple voltage and small PCB area. Additional design information is available at www.ti.com.

INPUT FILTER

The input voltage is a nominal 5 VDC. The input filter C10 is a 10-F ceramic capacitor (Taiyo Yuden). C12, also a 10-F ceramic capacitor (Taiyo Yuden) provides high frequency decoupling of the TPS54810 from the input supply and must be located as close as possible to the device. Ripple current is carried in both C10 and C12, and the return path to PGND should avoid the current circulating in the output capacitors C5, C7, and C8.

FEEDBACK CIRCUIT

The values for these components have been selected to provide low output ripple voltage. The resistor divider network of R1 and R4 sets the output voltage for the circuit

at 1.8 V. R1, along with R2, R3, C1, C2, and C4 forms the loop compensation network for the circuit. For this design, a Type 3 topology is used.

OPERATING FREQUENCY

In the application circuit, RT is grounded through a 71.5 kresistor to select the operating frequency of 700 kHz. To set a different frequency, place a 68 kto 180 kresistor between RT (pin 28) and analog ground or leave RT floating to select the default of 350 kHz. The resistance can be approximated using the following equation:

500 kHz

 

 

R + Switching Frequency

100 [kW]

(1)

OUTPUT FILTER

The output filter is composed of a 0.65-H inductor and 3 x 22-F capacitor. The inductor is a low dc resistance (0.017 ) type, Pulse Engineering PA0277. The capacitors used are 22-F, 6.3 V ceramic types with X5R dielectric. The feedback loop is compensated so that the unity gain frequency is approximately 75 kHz.
