TPS9264x Synchronous Buck Controllers for Precision Dimming LED Drivers
1 Features 3 Description
The TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices are high-
1 VIN Range from 7 V to 85 V voltage, synchronous NFET controllers for buck-
Wide Dimming Range current regulators. Output current regulation is based
500:1 Analog Dimming on valley current-mode operation using a controlled
on-time architecture. This control method eases the
2500:1 Standard PWM Dimming design of loop compensation while maintaining nearly
20000:1 Shunt FET PWM Dimming constant switching frequency. The TPS92640 and
Adjustable LED Current Sense Voltage TPS92641 devices include a high-voltage start-up
regulator that operates over a wide input range of 7 V
2-Ω, 1-Apeak MOSFET Gate Drivers to 85 V. The PWM controller is designed for high
Shunt Dimming MOSFET Gate Driver (TPS92641) speed capability, including an oscillator frequency
Programmable Switching Frequency range up to 1 MHz. The deadtime between high side
Precision Voltage Reference 3 V ±2% and low side gate driver is optimized to provide very
high efficiency over a wide input operating voltage
Input UVLO and Output OVP and output power range. The TPS92640 and
Low Power Shutdown Mode and Thermal TPS92641 devices accept both analog and PWM
Shutdown input signals, resulting in exceptional dimming control
range. Linear response characteristics between input
2 Applications command and LED current is achieved with true zero
LED current using low off-set error amplifier and
LED Driver / Constant Current Regulator proprietary PWM dimming logic. Both devices also
Architectural LED Lighting Drivers include precision reference capable of supplying
Automotive LED Drivers current to low power microcontroller. Protection
features include cycle-by-cycle current protection,
General LED Illumination overvoltage protection, and thermal shutdown. The
TPS92641 device includes a shunt FET dimming
input and MOSFET driver for high resolution PWM
dimming.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices are synchronous N-channel MOSFET (NFET) controllers for step-down
(buck) current regulators, which are ideal for driving LED loads. They can accept wide input voltage range
allowing for greater flexibility in powering different series connected LED string combinations. The single current
sense pin with low adjustable threshold voltage provides an excellent method for regulating LED current while
maintaining high system efficiency. The TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices use valley current control with a
controlled on-time architecture that allows the converter to be operated at nearly constant switching frequency
without the need for slope compensation. The extremely accurate adjustable current sense threshold together
with the synchronous operation provides the capability to amplitude (analog) dim the LED current with high
contrast ratios. Excellent PWM dimming is attainable using the main NFETs or the external shunt FET driver
(TPS92641 only). The TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices incorporate 2-Ω, 1-A internal gate drivers and supports
constant current operation up to 5 A. This simple controller contains all the features necessary to implement a
high-efficiency, versatile LED driver with precise dimming response.

7.3 Feature Description
Figure 13. Synchronous Buck LED Driver
7.3.1 Controlled On-Time Architecture
The control architecture is a combination of valley current control and a one-shot on-timer that varies with input
and output voltage. The TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices use a series resistor in the LED path to sense both
average LED current and valley inductor current. During the time that the high side NFET is turned on (tON), the
input voltage charges up the inductor. When it is turned off (tOFF) and the low side NFET is turned on, the
inductor discharges. During both intervals, the current is supplied to the load keeping the LEDs forward biased.
Figure 14 shows the inductor current (iL) waveform for a buck converter operating in continuous conduction mode
(CCM). As the system changes input voltage or output voltage, duty cycle D is varied indirectly by changing both
tON and tOFF to regulate ILand ultimately ILED. For any buck regulator, duty cycle, D, is calculated using
Equation 1.
where
VCS is the voltage measured at the CS pin of the IC and ηis the estimated or actual converter efficiency. (1)

7.3.2 Switching Frequency
The on-time is determined based on the external resistor (RON) connected between RON and VIN pins in
combination with a capacitor (CON) between RON and GND pins. The input voltage and the RON resistor set the
current sourced into the RON capacitor which governs the ramp speed. The ramp threshold is proportional to
scaled down feedback of VOUT at VOUT pin. The proportionality of VOUT is set by an external resistor divider
(RVOUT1, RVOUT2) from VOUT. The switching frequency, fSW can be calculated based on on-time and off-time using
Equation 2.
(2)
Even though the on-time control is quasi-hysteretic, the input and output voltage proportionality creates a nearly
constant switching frequency over the entire operating range. Quasi-hysteretic control minimizes the control loop
compensation necessary in many switching regulators, simplifying the design process. It also mitigates current
mode instability (also known as sub-harmonic oscillation) found in standard fixed frequency current mode control
when operating near or above 50% duty cycle. The inductor current sensing and averaging mechanism in the
valley detection control loop provides highly accurate LED current regulation over the entire operating range and
temperature.
7.3.3 Average LED Current
Average LED current regulation is set using a sense resistor in series with the LEDs. The internal error-amplifer
regulates the voltage across the sense resistor (VCS) to the IADJ voltage divided by 10. The error amplifier input
offset voltage has been minimized using auto-zero calibration technique as shown in . In this chopping scheme,
the noninverting and inverting inputs and outputs change polarity every switching cycle to cancel the offset,
providing near zero input offset voltage.

IADJ can be set to any value up to 2.54 V by connecting it to VREF through a resistor divider for static output
current settings. IADJ can also be used to change the regulation point if connected to a controlled voltage source
or potentiometer to provide analog dimming. It is also possible to configure IADJ to be used for thermal foldback
functions.

7.3.4 Analog Dimming and True-Zero Operation
In traditional Buck converters, discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) operation of inductor current results in loss
of linearity at low dimming levels and limits the analog dimming range. When using TPS92640 and TPS92641
devices to implement synchronous buck converter, the inductor current is forced to maintain continuous
conduction mode (CCM). As a result, it is possible to maintain linearity and achieve true-zero LED current
operation with respect to analog dimming command. For true zero application, an external capacitor is required
across the LED string to provide a negative current path for the inductor current loop. Figure 16 shows the
inductor current (IL) and output voltage (VOUT) waveform for a buck converter operating at true zero average
current level.
Figure 16. True Zero CCM Buck Converter Inductor Current ILand Output Voltage VOUT Waveform
In true zero application (VIADJ=0 V), there will be a certain amount of ILED passing the LEDs even though the
average inductor current is well-regulated at 0-A set-point. The shaped area in Figure 17 shows the current that
will pass through the LED string (iLED).

Figure 17. Output Current Waveform in True Zero Application with VIADJ =0V
An external resistor, ROFF as shown in Figure 18 is recommended from VOUT to CS to shunt the positive current
ripple while maintaining the operation of error amplifier to cancel input offset voltage. The shunt current (IOFF)
should be at least half of the output current ripple to ensure proper operation.
(5)
Figure 18. ROFF for True Zero Application
The resistor ROFF also impacts the start-up behavior of the circuit as it creates an DC shift in the voltage sensed
at CS pin. To ensure proper start-up sequence and monotonic LED current behavior, the voltage V'CS should
exceed a threshold voltage based on the native offset of the error amplifier before VOUT exceeding the LED
forward voltage, VLED. Assuming a worst case native off-set (non-chopping) of error amplifier to be less than ±10
mV, the voltage V'CS must be greater than this threshold to initiate switching and auto-zero operation. Therefore,
ROFF should be sized to also meet following condition.

7.3.5 Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
The UDIM pin of the TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices is a dual function input that features an accurate 1.276-V
threshold with programmable hysteresis. This pin functions as both the PWM dimming input of the LEDs and as
an input UVLO with built-in hysteresis. When the pin voltage rises and exceeds the 1.276-V threshold, 21 µA
(typical) of current is driven out of the UDIM pin into the resistor divider (RUDIM1, RUDIM2) providing programmable
hysteresis. The UVLO turnon threshold, VTURN-ON, is defined using Equation 8.
(8)
Once the input voltage is above VTURN_ON, the current source is active and the UVLO hysteresis is determined by
Equation 9.
(9)
When using the UDIM pin for UVLO and PWM dimming concurrently, the UVLO circuit can have an extra resistor
(RUDIM3) to set the hysteresis. This allows the standard resistor divider to have smaller values minimizing delays
that can incur with additional external PWM dimming circuitry. In general, at least 3 V of hysteresis is preferable
when PWM dimming if operating near the UVLO threshold. Under these conditions, the UVLO hysteresis is
defined using Equation 10.
(10)
7.3.6 PWM Dimming Using the UDIM Pin
The UDIM pin can be driven with a PWM signal, which controls the synchronous NFET operation. The brightness
of the LEDs can be varied by modulating the duty cycle (DDIM) of this signal using a Schottky diode with anode
connected to UDIM pin, as shown in Figure 13.
Figure 19. LED Current During UDIM Pin PWM Dimming
Figure 19 shows the LED current waveform during PWM dimming where duty cycle (DDIM) is the percentage of
the dimming period (TDIM) that the synchronous NFETs are switching. For the remainder of TDIM, the NFETs are
disabled. The resulting dimmed LED current (IDIM_LED) is:

7.3.7 External Shunt FET PWM Dimming
Extremely high dimming range and linearity can be achieved by using TPS92641 device for Shunt FET dimming
operation with SDIM and SDRV pin. When higher frequency and time resolution PWM dimming signal is applied
to the SDIM pin, the SDRV pin provides an inverted signal of the same frequency and duty cycle that can be
used to drive the gate of a Shunt NFET directly across the LED load. Because the output voltage will go to near
zero when the Shunt NFET is turned on, the internal on-timer at the RON pin will switch to a fixed minimum on-
time during the off-time of the dimming cycle. This method keeps the inductor current slewed up and the
converter regulating, without the presence of extremely high switching frequencies. During the on-time of the
dimming cycle, the converter will switch in its regular fashion with the programmed on-time at the RON pin. An
internal resistor pulls the SDIM pin to logic high if left open. In this case, the SDRV driver will be off.
Figure 20. Ideal LED Current During Shunt FET PWM Dimming
Figure 20 shows the ideal LED current waveform during Shunt FET PWM dimming which is very similar to the
internal PWM dimming described and shown previously except with much faster rise and fall of the LED current.
With this method, only the speed of the parallel Shunt NFET limits the dimming frequency and dimming duty
cycle.
7.3.8 VCC Regulation and Start-up
The TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices include a high voltage, low-dropout bias regulator. When power is
applied, the regulator is enabled and sources current into an external capacitor (CVCC) connected to the VCC pin.
The recommended bypass capacitance for the VCC regulator is 2.2 µF to 3.3 µF. This capacitor should be rated
for 10 V or greater and an X7R dielectric ceramic is recommended. The output of the VCC regulator is monitored
by an internal UVLO circuit that protects the device from attempting to operate with insufficient supply voltage,
and the supply current is also internally current-limited. When VIN is close or lower than 8.5 V, the regulator will
enter the by-pass mode and the VCC will closely follow VIN. This linear regulator is the primary heat source
generator of the device. The amount of heat generated is a function of input voltage (VIN), switching frequency
(FSW) and the characteristics of the power MOSFET used. The thermal handling capability of the device imposes
a limit on the maximum switching frequency can be used, especially when VIN is higher than 48 V and high
current power MOSFET is used.
7.3.9 Precision Reference
The device includes a precision 3-V reference. This can be used in conjunction with a resistor divider to set
voltage levels for the IADJ pin and other external circuitry requiring a reference. It can also be used to supply
current to low power micro-controllers. The source current capability from VREF pin is internally limited 2.1 mA.
For the VREF regulator, TI recommends a bypass capacitance from 0.1 µF to 1 µF.
7.3.10 Control Loop Compensation
Compensating the TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices is relatively simple for most applications. The only
compensation needed is a compensation capacitor, CCOMP across the COMP pin and ground to place a low-
frequency dominant pole in the system. The pole must be placed low enough to ensure adequate phase margin
at the crossover frequency. For most of the applications, CCOMP of 100 nF to 470 nF is good enough.
Additionally, TI recommends a high quality ceramic capacitor with X7R dielectric rated for 25 V.

7.3.11 Overcurrent Protection
The TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices has overcurrent protection to protect the high side NFET (HS-NFET)
along with the rest of the system from overcurrent conditions. This peak current limit of 1.28 V (with VIN = 85 V at
room temperature) is sensed across the high side FET RDS-ON (from SW to VIN). If the threshold is reached or
exceeded, HS-NFET will turn off and the low side NFET (LS-NFET) will turn on for approximately 800 ns. Then
HS-NFET will turn on again, if the threshold is still reached or exceeded, both FETs are shutoff for 270-µs
typical. Figure 21 shows the waveforms of HG and LG under overcurrent protection.
Figure 21. HG and LG Waveforms Under Overcurrent Protection
7.3.12 Overvoltage Protection (OVP)
The TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices have programmable overvoltage protection by using the resistor divider
at the VOUT pin. The OVP limit, VOVP_ON, is defined using Equation 12.
(12)
If the output voltage reaches VOVP_ON, the HG, LG and SDRV pins are pulled low to prevent damage to the LEDs
or the rest of the circuit. The OVP circuit has a fixed hysteresis of 100 mV before the driver attempts to switch
again.
7.3.13 Boot Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
The BOOT UVLO circuit is implemented to ensure proper operation of the high-side gate driver under all
operating conditions. The switching operation is commenced once the BOOT voltage exceeds 3.4 V above the
SW pin. Comparator hysteresis of 1.8 V is included to prevent false tripping due to high-frequency switching
noise. When the BOOT falls below the low voltage threshold (1.6 V typical), the high side NFET is disabled by
pulling HG pin to SW pin. The next turnon transition of low-side NFET pulls SW pin down and charges the BOOT
capacitor (CBOOT) through VCC. Normal operation is commenced once BOOT capacitor (CBOOT) is charged
above BOOT UVLO turnon threshold of 3.4 V.
The boostrap circuit behavior impacts the circuit behavior near dropout (VIN= VOUT) conditions. A minimum off-
time is implemented to restrict the maximum duty cycle and maintain charge on the external BOOT capacitor,
CBOOT. As the input voltage, VIN, approachs close to the output voltage, VOUT, the output current will fall with the
switching frequency, as in conventional Buck regulator. This behavior ensures smooth operation in and out of
dropout region while ensuring proper operation of high side gate driver and bootstrap circuit.

8 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.
8.1 Application Information
8.1.1 Switching Frequency
Switching frequency is selected based on the trade-offs between efficiency, solution size/cost and the range of
output voltage that can be regulated. Many applications place limits on switching frequency due to EMI sensitiviy.
The on-time of the TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices can be programmed for switching frequencies ranging
from the tens of kHz to over 1 MHz. This on-time varies in proportion to both VIN and VOUT, as described in
Switching Frequency. However, in practice the switching frequency will shift in response to large swings in input
or output voltage. The maximum switching frequency is limited only by the minimum on-time and minimum off-
time requirements.
8.1.2 LED Ripple Current
The LED manufacturers generally recommend values of current ripple, ΔILED, to achieve optimal optical
efficiency. The peak-to-peak current ripple values typically range from ±10% to ±40% of DC current, ILED. Higher
LED ripple current allows the use of smaller inductors, smaller output capacitors, or no output capacitors at all.
Lower ripple current requires more inductance, higher switching frequency, or additional output capacitance.
Based on the LED current ripple specification and desired switching frequency, the inductor value can be
calculated using Equation 13.
(13)
It is important to ensure that the rated inductor saturation current is greater than the worst case operating current
(ILED+ΔILED/2) under the wide operating temperature range.
8.1.3 Buck Converters Without Output Capacitor
A Buck regulator is ideal for regulating current because of the direct connection between the inductor and the
LED load. Because the current is being regulated, not voltage, a buck current regulator is free of load current
transients, and has no need of output capacitance to supply the load and maintain output voltage. This is of great
benefit when driving LEDs as large electrolytic capacitors impact the lifetimes and PWM dimming performance.
The output capacitor can be eliminated by using a large inductor or higher switching frequency as discussed in
LED Ripple Current
A capacitor placed in parallel with the LED or array of LEDs can be used to reduce ΔiLED while keeping the same
average current through both the inductor and the LED array. With this topology the inductance can be lowered,
making the magnetics smaller and less expensive. Alternatively, the circuit can be run at lower frequency with the
same inductor value, improving the efficiency and expanding the range of output voltage that can be regulated.
Figure 22 shows the equivalent impedances presented to the ΔiL-PP when an output capacitor, COUT, and its
equivalent series resistance (RESR) are placed in parallel with the LED array.

Application Information (continued)
Figure 22. LED Ripple Current With COUT
To calculate the respective ripple currents, the LED array is represented as the dynamic resistance, (rD). LED's
dynamic resistance is not always specified on the manufacturer’s data sheet, but it can be calculated as the
inverse slope of the LED’s VLED vs ILED curve at the operating point. However, this method only gives an rough
estimate of rD. Total dynamic resistance for a string of n LEDs connected in series can be calculated as the rDof
one device multiplied by n. Inductor ripple current, ΔiL-PP is still calculated as before. The following equations can
then be used to estimate peak-to-peak LED current ripple, ΔiLED-PP, when using a parallel capacitor:
(14)
The calculation for ZCOUT assumes that the shape of the inductor ripple current is approximately sinusoidal. Small
values of COUT that do not significantly reduce ΔiLED-PP can also be used to control EMI generated by the
switching action of the TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices. EMI reduction becomes more important as the length
of the connections between the LED and the rest of the circuit increase.
8.1.4 Input Capacitor
Input capacitor is selected using requirements for minimum capacitance and rms ripple current. The input
capacitor supply pulses of current approximately equal to ILED while the high-side NFET is on, and is charged up
by the input voltage while the high-side NFET is off. Switching converters such as the TPS92640 and TPS92641
devices have a negative input impedance due to the decrease in input current as input voltage increases. This
inverse proportionality of input current to input voltage can cause oscillations (sometimes called power supply
interaction) if the magnitude of the negative input impedance is greater than the input filter impedance. Minimum
capacitance can be selected by comparing the input impedance to the converter’s negative resistance; however,
this requires accurate calculation of the input voltage source inductance and resistance, quantities which can be
difficult to determine. An alternative method to select the minimum input capacitance (CIN-MIN) is to select the
maximum voltage ripple (ΔvIN-MAX), which can be tolerated. ΔvIN-MAX is equal to the change in voltage across CIN
during tON when it supplies the load current. A good starting point for selection of CIN is to use an input voltage
ripple of 2% to 10% of VIN. CIN-MIN can be selected using Equation 15.
(15)
TI recommends a minimum input capacitance at least 75% greater than the CIN-MIN value. To determine the RMS
input current rating (IIN-RMS), use Equation 16.

Application Information (continued)
Because this approximation assumes there is no inductor ripple current, the value should be increased by 10-
30% depending on the amount of ripple that is expected. Ceramic capacitors are the best choice for the input to
the TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices due to their high ripple current rating, low ESR, low cost, and small size
compared to other types. When selecting a ceramic capacitor, special attention must be paid to the operating
conditions of the application. Ceramic capacitors can lose one-half or more of their capacitance at their rated DC
voltage bias and also lose capacitance with extremes in temperature. Make sure to check any recommended
deratings and also verify if there is any significant change in capacitance at the operating input voltage and the
operating temperature.
8.1.5 NFETs
The TPS92640 and TPS92641 devices require two external NFETs for the switching regulator. The FETs should
have a voltage rating at least 20% higher than the maximum input voltage to ensure safe operation during the
ringing of the switch node. In practice, all switching converters have some ringing at the switch node due to the
diode parasitic capacitance and the lead inductance. The NFETs should also have a current rating at least 50%
higher than the average transistor current. Once NFETs are chosen, the power rating is verified by calculating
the power loss.

Choose RVOUT1 = 120 kΩ.
8.2.2.2.3 Switching Frequency
Using the values calculated above choose a value of CON = 1 nF and calculate the value of RON:
(32)
Choose the closest standard resistor value of RON = 26.1 kΩ.
8.2.2.2.4 Set the Feedback Reference and LED Current
To get a value of VCS = 200 mV VIADJ must be set to 2 V. Choose a value of RIADJ1 = 10 kΩand solve for RIADJ2:
(33)
Choose the standard resistor value of RIADJ2 = 19.6 kΩand solve for RCS using Equation 34.
(34)
RCS = 0.2 Ωis a standard resistor value.
8.2.2.2.5 Calculate the Inductor Value
Because this is a PWM dimming application, TI does not recommend much output capacitance for faster current
rise and fall times, so the inductor ripple current should be close to the 300-mA peak-to-peak LED ripple current.
Calculate and inductor value that will give you 350-mA peak-to-peak inductor ripple current or less:
(35)
Choose the standard value of L = 68 µH which results in an actual ΔiL-PP of 342 mA.
8.2.2.2.6 Calculate the Output Capacitor Value
Given the actual inductor ripple current of 342-mA peak-to-peak, use Equation 36 to calculate the required output
capacitor value.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
The performance of any switching converter depends as much upon the layout of the PCB as the component
selection. Following a few simple guidelines will maximize noise rejection and minimize the generation of EMI
within the circuit.
Discontinuous currents are the most likely to generate EMI, therefore take care when routing these paths. The
main path for discontinuous current in the TPS92640 and TPS92641 buck converters contain the input capacitor
(CIN), the low side MOSFET (QLS), and the high side MOSFET (QHS). This loop should be kept as small as
possible and the connections between all three components should be short and thick to minimize parasitic
inductance. In particular, the switch node (where L, QLS and QHS connect) should be just large enough to
connect the components without excessive heating from the current it carries. The current sense trace (CS pin)
should be run along with a ground plane or have differential traces run for CS and ground.
In some applications, the LED or LED array can be far away (several inches or more) from the circuit, or on a
separate PCB connected by a wiring harness. When an output capacitor is used and the LED array is large or
separated from the rest of the converter, the output capacitor should be placed close to the LEDs to reduce the
effects of parasitic inductance on the AC impedance of the capacitor.

10.3 EMI and Noise Considerations
In synchronous rectifier, the high speed gate drive signals can generate significant conducted and radiated EMI.
This noise can couple with high impedance nodes of the IC and result in undesirable operation. A small (4 Ωto
10 Ω) resistors, RHG and RLG, in series with the gate drive signals are recommended to slow the slew-rate of the
SW node and reduce the noise signature. They also improve the robustness of the circuit by reducing the noise
coupling in to sensitive nodes such as UDIM, CS, RON and IADJ.
In other to further reduce EMI signature, good PCB layout techniques must be implemented. The loop area
between the synchronous NFET, inductor and output capacitor should be minimized to reduce radiated EMI due
to switching action. The trace lengths of high impedance nodes (UDIM, CS, RON and IADJ) should be minimized
and shielded from switching noise. The parasitic capacitance between switching node and ground node should
be minimized to reduce common mode noise. Other common layout techniques such as star ground and noise
suppression using local bypass capacitors should be followed to maximize noise rejection and minimize EMI
within the circuit.
