3 Description
The TPS6214x family is an easy-to-use synchronous
step-down DC-DC converter optimized for
applications with high power density. A high switching
frequency of typically 2.5 MHz allows the use of small
inductors and provides fast transient response by use
of the DCS-Control™ topology.
With their wide operating input voltage range of 3 V
to 17 V, the devices are ideally suited for systems
powered from either a Li-Ion or other batteries, as
well as from 12-V intermediate power rails. It
supports up to 2 A of continuous output current at
output voltages between 0.9 V and 6 V (with 100%
duty-cycle mode). The output voltage start-up ramp is
controlled by the soft-start pin, which allows operation
as either a standalone power supply or in tracking
configurations. Power sequencing is also possible by
configuring the Enable (EN) and open-drain Power
Good (PG) pins.
In Power Save Mode, the devices draw quiescent
current of about 17 μA from VIN. Power Save Mode,
entered automatically and seamlessly if the load is
small, maintains high efficiency over the entire load
range. In Shutdown Mode, the device is turned off
and current consumption is less than 2 μA.
The device, available in adjustable and fixed output
voltage versions, is packaged in a 16-pin VQFN
package measuring 3 mm × 3 mm (RGT).

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The TPS6214x synchronous switched-mode power converters are based on DCS-Control™ (Direct Control with
Seamless Transition into Power-Save Mode), an advanced regulation topology, that combines the advantages of
hysteretic, voltage mode and current mode control including an ac loop directly associated with the output
voltage. This control loop takes information about output voltage changes and feeds it directly to a fast
comparator stage. It sets the switching frequency, which is constant for steady-state operating conditions, and
provides immediate response to dynamic load changes. To get accurate DC load regulation, a voltage feedback
loop is used. The internally compensated regulation network achieves fast and stable operation with small
external components and low-ESR capacitors.
The DCS-Control™ topology supports Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) mode for medium and heavy load
conditions and a Power Save Mode at light loads. During PWM, it operates at its nominal switching frequency in
continuous conduction mode. This frequency is typically about 2.5 MHz or 1.25MHz with a controlled frequency
variation depending on the input voltage. If the load current decreases, the converter enters Power Save Mode to
sustain high efficiency down to very light loads. In Power Save Mode, the switching frequency decreases linearly
with the load current. Because DCS-Control™ supports both operation modes within one single building block,
the transition from PWM to Power Save Mode is seamless without effects on the output voltage.
Fixed output-voltage versions provide the smallest solution size and lowest current consumption, requiring only 3
external components. An internal current limit supports nominal output currents of up to 2 A.
The TPS6214x family offers both excellent DC voltage and superior load transient regulation, combined with very
low output voltage ripple, minimizing interference with RF circuits.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Enable / Shutdown (EN)
When Enable (EN) is set High, the device starts operation. Shutdown is forced if EN is pulled Low with a
shutdown current of typically 1.5µA. During shutdown, the internal power MOSFETs as well as the entire control
circuitry are turned off. The internal resistive divider pulls down the output voltage smoothly. The EN signal must
be set externally to High or Low. An internal pull-down resistor of about 400kΩis connected and keeps EN logic
low, if Low is set initially and then the pin gets floating. It is disconnected if the pin is set High
Connecting the EN pin to an appropriate output signal of another power rail provides sequencing of multiple
power rails.
8.3.2 Soft-Start / Tracking (SS/TR)
The internal soft-start circuitry controls the output voltage slope during start-up. This avoids excessive inrush
current and ensures a controlled output-voltage rise time. It also prevents unwanted voltage drops from high-
impedance power sources or batteries. When EN is set to start device operation, the device starts switching after
a delay of about 50 µs, and VOUT rises with a slope controlled by an external capacitor connected to the SS/TR
pin. See Figure 40 and Figure 41 for typical start-up operation.

Feature Description (continued)
Using a very small capacitor (or leaving SS/TR pin un-connected) provides fastest startup behavior. There is no
theoretical limit for the longest startup time. The TPS6214x can start into a pre-biased output. During monotonic
pre-biased startup, both the power MOSFETs are not allowed to turn on until the devices internal ramp sets an
output voltage above the pre-bias voltage. As long as the output is below about 0.5 V, a reduced current limit of
typically 1.6 A is set internally. If the device is set to shutdown (EN = GND), undervoltage lockout, or thermal
shutdown, an internal resistor pulls the SS/TR pin down to ensure a proper low level. Returning from those states
causes a new start-up sequence as set by the SS/TR connection.
A voltage supplied to SS/TR can be used for tracking a master voltage. The output voltage follows this voltage in
both directions, up and down (see Application and Implementation).
8.3.3 Power Good (PG)
The TPS6214x has a built-in power-good (PG) function to indicate whether the output voltage has reached its
appropriate level or not. The PG signal can be used for start-up sequencing of multiple rails. The PG pin is an
open-drain output that requires a pullup resistor (to any voltage below 7 V). It can sink 2 mA of current and
maintain its specified logic-low level. With TPS62140 it is high-impedance when the device is turned off due to
EN, UVLO, or thermal shutdown. TPS62140A features PG=Low in this case and can be used to actively
discharge Vout (see Figure 47). VIN must remain present for the PG pin to stay Low. See SLVA644 for
application details. If not used, the PG pin should be connected to GND but may be left floating.

8.3.4 Pin-Selectable Output Voltage (DEF)
The output voltage of the TPS6214x devices can be increased by 5% above the nominal voltage by setting the
DEF pin to High (1). When DEF is Low, the device regulates to the nominal output voltage. Increasing the nominal
voltage allows adapting the power supply voltage to the variations of the application hardware. More detailed
information on voltage margining using TPS6214x can be found in SLVA489. A pull down resistor of about 400
kΩis internally connected to the pin, to ensure a proper logic level if the pin is high impedance or floating after
initially set to Low. The resistor is disconnected if the pin is set High.

8.3.5 Frequency Selection (FSW)
To get high power density with very small solution size, a high switching frequency allows the use of small
external components for the output filter. However switching losses increase with the switching frequency. If
efficiency is the key parameter, more than solution size, the switching frequency can be set to half (1.25 MHz
typ.) by pulling FSW to High. It is mandatory to start with FSW=Low to limit inrush current, which can be done by
connecting to VOUT or PG. Running with lower frequency a higher efficiency, but also a higher output voltage
ripple, is achieved. Pull FSW to Low for high frequency operation (2.5 MHz typ.). To get low ripple and full output
current at the lower switching frequency, it's recommended to use an inductor of at least 2.2uH. The switching
frequency can be changed during operation, if needed. A pull down resistor of about 400kOhm is internally
connected to the pin, acting the same way as at the DEF pin (see above).
8.3.6 Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
If the input voltage drops, the undervoltage lockout prevents incorrect operation of the device by switching off
both the power FETs. The undervoltage lockout threshold is set typically to 2.7 V. The device is fully operational
for voltages above the UVLO threshold and turns off if the input voltage trips the threshold. The converter starts
operation again once the input voltage exceeds the threshold by a hysteresis of typically 200 mV.
8.3.7 Thermal Shutdown
The junction temperature (TJ) of the device is monitored by an internal temperature sensor. If TJexceeds 160°C
(typ.), the device goes into thermal shutdown. Both the high-side and low-side power FETs are turned off and PG
goes high-impedance. When TJdecreases below the hysteresis amount, the converter resumes normal
operation, beginning with soft start. To avoid unstable conditions, a hysteresis of typically 20°C is implemented
on the thermal shutdown temperature.
8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) Operation
The TPS6214x operates with pulse-width modulation in continuous-conduction mode (CCM) with a nominal
switching frequency of 2.5 MHz or 1.25 MHz, selectable with the FSW pin. The frequency variation in PWM is
controlled and depends on VIN, VOUT and the inductance. The device operates in PWM mode as long the output
current is higher than half the inductor ripple current. To maintain high efficiency at light loads, the device enters
power-save mode at the boundary to discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). This happens if the output current
becomes smaller than half the inductor ripple current.
8.4.2 Power Save Mode Operation
The TPS6214x enters its built-in power-save mode seamlessly if the load current decreases. This secures a high
efficiency in light-load operation. The device remains in power-save mode as long as the inductor current is
discontinuous.
In power-save mode, the switching frequency decreases linearly with the load current, maintaining high
efficiency. The transition into and out of power-save mode happens within the entire regulation scheme and is
seamless in both directions.
TPS6214x includes a fixed-on-time circuit. An estimate for this on-time, in steady-state operation with FSW=Low,
is:
space
(1)
space
For very small output voltages, an absolute minimum on-time of about 80 ns is kept to limit switching losses. The
operating frequency is thereby reduced from its nominal value, which keeps efficiency high. Also the off-time can
reach its minimum value at high duty cycles. The output voltage remains regulated in such case. Using tON, the
typical peak inductor current in Power Save Mode can be approximated by:

Device Functional Modes (continued)
(2)
When VIN decreases to typically 15% above VOUT, the TPS6214x does not enter power-save mode, regardless
of the load current. The device maintains output regulation in PWM mode.
8.4.3 100% Duty-Cycle Operation
The duty cycle of the buck converter is given by D = Vout/Vin and increases as the input voltage comes close to
the output voltage. In this case, the device starts 100% duty-cycle operation, turning on the high-side switch
100% of the time. The high-side switch stays turned on as long as the output voltage is below the internal
setpoint. This allows the conversion of small input-to-output voltage differences, e.g., for longest operation time
of battery-powered applications. In 100% duty-cycle mode, the low-side FET is switched off.
The minimum input voltage to maintain output voltage regulation, depending on the load current and the output
voltage level, is calculated as:
space
where
IOUT is the output current.
RDS(on) is the RDS(on) of the high-side FET.
RLis the DC resistance of the inductor used. (3)
8.4.4 Current Limit and Short Circuit Protection
The TPS6214x devices are protected against heavy load and short-circuit events. If a short circuit is detected
(VOUT drops below 0.5 V), the current limit is reduced to 1.6 A, typically. If the output voltage rises above 0.5 V,
the device runs in normal operation again. At heavy loads, the current limit determines the maximum output
current. If the current limit is reached, the high-side FET is turned off. Avoiding shoot through current, then the
low-side FET switches on to allow the inductor current to decrease. The low-side current limit is typically 2.4A.
The high-side FET turns on again only if the current in the low-side FET has decreased below the low-side
current-limit threshold.
The output current of the device is limited by the current limit (see Electrical Characteristics). Due to internal
propagation delay, the actual current can exceed the static current limit during that time. The dynamic current
limit is calculated as follows:
space
where
ILIMF is the static current limit, specified in the Electrical Characteristics
L is the inductor value
VLis the voltage across the inductor (VIN VOUT)
tPD is the internal propagation delay (4)

The current limit can exceed static values, especially if the input voltage is high and very small inductances are
used. The dynamic high-side switch peak current is calculated as follows:

9 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
The TPS62140 is a switched mode step-down converter, able to convert a 3 V to 17 V input voltage into a 0.9 V
to 6 V output voltage, providing up to 2 A. It needs a minimum amount of external components. Apart from the
LC output filter and the input capacitor, only the TPS62140 (TPS62140A) with an adjustable output voltage
needs an additional resistive divider to set the output voltage level.
9.2 Typical Application
space
Figure 7. 3.3V/2A Step-Down Converter
9.2.1 Design Requirements
The following design guideline provides a component selection to operate the device within the recommended
operating conditions. Using the FSW pin, the design can be optimized for highest efficiency or smallest solution
size and lowest output voltage ripple. For highest efficiency set FSW = High and the device operates at the lower
switching frequency. For smallest solution size and lowest output voltage ripple set FSW = Low and the device
operates with higher switching frequency. The typical values for all measurements are VIN = 12 V, VOUT = 3.3 V
and T = 25°C, using the external components of Table 3.
9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The component selection used for measurements is given as follows:

(1) The values in the table are nominal values. The effective capacitance was considered to vary by +20% and -50%.
(2) This LC combination is the standard value and recommended for most applications.
9.2.2.1 Programming the Output Voltage
While the output voltage of the TPS62140 (TPS62140A) is adjustable, the TPS62141/2/3 are programmed to
fixed output voltages. For fixed output versions, the FB pin is pulled down internally and may be left floating. It is
recommended to connect to AGND to improve thermal resistance. The adjustable version can be programmed
for output voltages from 0.9 V to 6 V by using a resistive divider from VOUT to AGND. The voltage at the FB pin
is regulated to 800 mV. The value of the output voltage is set by the selection of the resistive divider from
Equation 6. It is recommended to choose resistor values which allow a current of at least 2 µA, meaning the
value of R2 should not exceed 400 kΩ. Lower resistor values are recommended for highest accuracy and most-
robust design. For applications requiring lowest current consumption, the use of fixed output-voltage versions is
recommended.

In case the FB pin is opened, the device clamps the output voltage at the VOS pin internally to about 7.4 V.
9.2.2.2 External Component Selection
The external components have to fulfill the needs of the application, but also the stability criteria of the devices
control loop. The TPS6214X is optimized to work within a range of external components. The LC output filter's
inductance and capacitance have to be considered in conjunction, creating a double pole, responsible for the
corner frequency of the converter (see Output Filter and Loop Stability section). Table 4 can be used to simplify
the output filter component selection. Checked cells represent combinations that are proven for stability by
simulation and lab test. Further combinations should be checked for each individual application. See SLVA463
for details.

TPS6214X can be run with an inductor as low as 1 µH or 2.2 µH. FSW should be set Low in this case. However,
for applications running with the low-frequency setting (FSW = High) or with low input voltages, 3.3 µH is
recommended.
9.2.2.2.1 Inductor Selection
The inductor selection is affected by several effects like inductor ripple current, output ripple voltage, PWM-to-
PSM transition point, and efficiency. In addition, the inductor selected must be rated for appropriate saturation
current and DC resistance (DCR). Equation 7 and Equation 8 calculate the maximum inductor current under
static load conditions.

Calculating the maximum inductor current using the actual operating conditions gives the minimum required
inductor saturation current. It is recommended to add a margin of about 20%. A larger inductor value is also
useful to get lower ripple current, but increases the transient response time and size as well. The following
inductors have been used with the TPS6214x and are recommended for use:

Using Equation 8, this current level can be adjusted by changing the inductor value.
9.2.2.2.2 Capacitor Selection
9.2.2.2.2.1 Output Capacitor
The recommended value for the output capacitor is 22 µF. The architecture of the TPS6214X allows the use of
tiny ceramic output capacitors with low equivalent series resistance (ESR). These capacitors provide low output-
voltage ripple and are recommended. To keep its low resistance up to high frequencies and to get narrow
capacitance variation with temperature, it is recommended to use X7R or X5R dielectric. Using a higher value
can have some advantages, like smaller voltage ripple and a tighter DC output accuracy in power-save mode
(see SLVA463).
Note: In power-save mode, the output voltage ripple depends on the output capacitance, its ESR and the peak
inductor current. Using ceramic capacitors provides small ESR and low ripple.

9.2.2.2.2.2 Input Capacitor
For most applications, 10 µF is sufficient and is recommended, though a larger value reduces input-current ripple
further. The input capacitor buffers the input voltage for transient events and also decouples the converter from
the supply. A low-ESR multilayer ceramic capacitor is recommended for best filtering and should be placed
between PVIN and PGND as close as possible to those pins. Even though AVIN and PVIN must be supplied
from the same input source, it is recommended to place a capacitance of 0.1 uF from AVIN to AGND, to avoid
potential noise coupling.
9.2.2.2.2.3 Soft-Start Capacitor
A capacitance connected between the SS/TR pin and AGND allows a user-programmable start-up slope of the
output voltage. A constant-current source provides 2.5 µA to charge the external capacitance. The capacitor
required for a given soft-start ramp time for the output voltage is given by:
spacing
where
CSS is the capacitance (F) required at the SS/TR pin
tSS is the desired soft-start ramp time (s). (10)
spacing
NOTE
DC bias effect: High-capacitance ceramic capacitors have a DC bias effect, which has a
strong influence on the final effective capacitance. Therefore, the right capacitor value
must be chosen carefully. Package size and voltage rating in combination with dielectric
material are responsible for differences between the rated capacitor value and the
effective capacitance.
spacing
9.2.2.3 Tracking Function
If a tracking function is desired, the SS/TR pin can be used for this purpose by connecting it to an external
tracking voltage. The output voltage tracks that voltage. If the tracking voltage is between 50 mV and 1.2 V, the
FB pin tracks the SS/TR pin voltage as described in Equation 11 and shown in Figure 8.

Once the SS/TR pin voltage reaches about 1.2V, the internal voltage is clamped to the internal feedback voltage
and device goes to normal regulation. This works for rising and falling tracking voltages with the same behavior,
as long as the input voltage is inside the recommended operating conditions. For decreasing SS/TR pin voltage,
the device doesn't sink current from the output. So, the resulting decrease of the output voltage may be slower
than the SS/TR pin voltage if the load is light. When driving the SS/TR pin with an external voltage, do not
exceed the voltage rating of the SS/TR pin which is VIN+0.3V.
If the input voltage drops into undervoltage lockout or even down to zero, the output voltage goes to zero,
independent of the tracking voltage. Figure 9 shows how to connect devices to get ratiometric and simultaneous
sequencing by using the tracking function.
spacing

spacing
The resistive divider of R1 and R2 can be used to change the ramp rate of VOUT2 faster, slower, or the same as
VOUT1.
A sequential start-up is achieved by connecting the PG pin of VOUT1 to the EN pin of VOUT2. A ratiometric
start-up sequence happens if both supplies are sharing the same soft-start capacitor. Equation 10 calculates the
soft-start time, though the SS/TR current must be doubled. Details about these and other tracking and
sequencing circuits are found in SLVA470.
Note: If the voltage at the FB pin is below its typical value of 0.8 V, the output voltage accuracy may have a
wider tolerance than specified.

9.2.2.4 Output Filter and Loop Stability

corresponding to a corner frequency to be calculated with Equation 12:

spacing
Proven nominal values for inductance and ceramic capacitance are given in Table 4 and are recommended for
use. Different values may work, but care must be taken on the loop stability, which is affected. More information
including a detailed L-C stability matrix can be found in SLVA463.
The TPS6214x devices, both fixed and adjustable versions, include an internal 25 pF feed-forward capacitor,
connected between the VOS and FB pins. This capacitor impacts the frequency behavior and sets a pole and
zero in the control loop with the resistors of the feedback divider, per equations Equation 13 and Equation 14:
spacing

spacing
(14)
spacing
Though the TPS6214x devices are stable without the pole and zero being in a particular location, adjusting their
location to the specific needs of the application can provide better performance in power-save mode and/or
improved transient response. An external feed-forward capacitor can also be added. A more detailed discussion
on the optimization for stability vs transient response can be found in SLVA289 and SLVA466.

9.3 System Examples
9.3.1 LED Power Supply
The TPS62140 can be used as a power supply for power LEDs. The FB pin can be easily set down to lower
values than nominal by using the SS/TR pin. With that, the voltage drop on the sense resistor is low to avoid
excessive power loss. Because this pin provides 2.5 µA, the feedback pin voltage can be adjusted by an external
resistor per Equation 15. This drop, proportional to the LED current, is used to regulate the output voltage (anode
voltage) to a proper level to drive the LED. Both analog and PWM dimming are supported with the TPS62140.
Figure 46 shows an application circuit, tested with analog dimming:
spacing
Figure 46. Single Power LED Supply
The resistor at SS/TR sets the FB voltage to a level of about 300 mV and is calculated from Equation 15.
spacing
(15)
spacing
The device now supplies a constant current, set by the resistor at the FB pin, by regulating the output voltage
accordingly. The minimum input voltage must be rated according to the forward voltage needed by the LED
used. More information is available in the application note SLVA451.
9.3.2 Active Output Discharge
The TPS62140A pulls the PG pin Low, when the device is shut down by EN, UVLO or thermal shutdown.
Connecting PG to Vout through a resistor can be used to discharge Vout in those cases (see Figure 47). The
discharge rate can be adjusted by R3, which is also used to pull up the PG pin in normal operation. For reliability,
keep the maximum current into the PG pin less than 10mA.

9.3.3 Inverting Power Supply
The TPS6214x can be used as inverting power supply by rearranging external circuitry as shown in Figure 48.
As the former GND node now represents a voltage level below system ground, the voltage difference between
VIN and VOUT has to be limited for operation to the maximum supply voltage of 17V (see Equation 16).
spacing
(16)
spacing
Figure 48. –3.3V Inverting Power Supply
spacing
The transfer function of the inverting power supply configuration differs from the buck mode transfer function,
incorporating a Right Half Plane Zero additionally. The loop stability has to be adapted and an output
capacitance of at least 22µF is recommended. A detailed design example is given in SLVA469.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
A proper layout is critical for the operation of a switched-mode power supply, even more at high switching
frequencies. Therefore, the PCB layout of the TPS6214x demands careful attention to ensure operation and to
get the performance specified. A poor layout can lead to issues like poor regulation (both line and load), stability
and accuracy weaknesses, increased EMI radiation, and noise sensitivity.
See Figure 56 for the recommended layout of the TPS6214x, which is designed for common external ground
connections. Therefore both AGND and PGND pins are directly connected to the Exposed Thermal Pad. On the
PCB, the direct common ground connection of AGND and PGND to the Exposed Thermal Pad and the system
ground (ground plane) is mandatory. Also connect the VOS pin in the shortest way to VOUT at the output
capacitor. To avoid noise coupling into the VOS line, this connection should be separated from the VOUT power
line/plane as shown in Layout Example.
Provide low inductive and resistive paths for loops with high di/dt. Therefore, paths conducting the switched load
current should be as short and wide as possible. Provide low capacitive paths (with respect to all other nodes) for
wires with high dv/dt. Therefore, the input and output capacitance should be placed as close as possible to the
IC pins and parallel wiring over long distances as well as narrow traces should be avoided. Loops which conduct
an alternating current should outline an area as small as possible, as this area is proportional to the energy
radiated.
Sensitive nodes like FB and VOS need to be connected with short wires and not nearby high dv/dt signals (that
is, SW). As they carry information about the output voltage, they should be connected as close as possible to the
actual output voltage (at the output capacitor). The capacitor on the SS/TR pin and on AVIN as well as the FB
resistors, R1 and R2, should be kept close to the IC and connect directly to those pins and the system ground
plane.
The Exposed Thermal Pad must be soldered to the circuit board for mechanical reliability and to achieve
appropriate power dissipation.
The recommended layout is implemented on the EVM and shown in its Users Guide, SLVU437. Additionally, the
EVM Gerber data are available for download here, SLVC394.

11.3 Thermal Considerations
Implementation of integrated circuits in low-profile and fine-pitch surface-mount packages typically requires
special attention to power dissipation. Many system-dependent issues such as thermal coupling, airflow, added
heat sinks and convection surfaces, and the presence of other heat-generating components affect the power-
dissipation limits of a given component.
Three basic approaches for enhancing thermal performance are listed below:
Improving the power dissipation capability of the PCB design
Improving the thermal coupling of the component to the PCB by soldering the exposed thermal pad
Introducing airflow in the system
For more details on how to use the thermal parameters, see the application notes: Thermal Characteristics
Application Note (SZZA017), and (SPRA953).
The TPS6214X is designed for a maximum operating junction temperature (TJ) of 125°C. Therefore, the
maximum output power is limited by the power losses that can be dissipated over the actual thermal resistance,
given by the package and the surrounding PCB structures. Since the thermal resistance of the package is fixed,
increasing the size of the surrounding copper area and improving the thermal connection to the IC can reduce
the thermal resistance. To get improved thermal behavior, it is recommended to use top layer metal to connect
the device with wide and thick metal lines. Internal ground layers can connect to vias directly under the IC for
improved thermal performance.
If short-circuit or overload conditions are present, the device is protected by limiting internal power dissipation.
Experimental data, taken from the TPS62140 EVM, shows the maximum ambient temperature (without additional
cooling like airflow or heat sink), that can be allowed to limit the junction temperature to at most 125°C (see
Figure 44).
