9.3.1 DCS-Control™

TI's DCS-Control™ (Direct Control with Seamless Transition into Power Save Mode) is an advanced regulation topology, which combines the advantages of hysteretic and voltage mode control. Characteristics of DCS-Control™ are excellent AC load regulation and transient response, low output ripple voltage and a seamless transition between PFM and PWM mode operation. DCS-Control™ includes an AC loop which senses the output voltage (VOUT pin) and directly feeds the information to a fast comparator stage. This comparator sets the switching frequency, which is constant for steady state operating conditions, and provides immediate response to dynamic load changes. In order to achieve accurate DC load regulation, a voltage feedback loop is used.

The DCS-Control™ topology supports PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) mode for medium and high load conditions and Power Save Mode at light loads. During PWM mode, it operates in continuous conduction. The switching frequency goes up to 1.7MHz with a controlled frequency variation depending on the input voltage. If the load current decreases, the converter seamlessly enters Power Save Mode to maintain high efficiency down to very light loads. In Power Save Mode, the switching frequency varies nearly linearly with the load current. Since 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. The TPS82740 offers both excellent DC voltage and superior load transient regulation, combined with very low output voltage ripple, minimizing interference with RF circuits. At high load currents, the converter operates in quasi fixed frequency PWM mode operation and at light loads in PFM (Pulse Frequency Modulation) mode to maintain highest efficiency over the full load current range. In PFM Mode, the device generates a single switching pulse to ramp up the inductor current and recharge the output capacitor, followed by a sleep period where most of the internal circuits are shutdown to achieve the lowest quiescent current. During this time, the load current is supported by the output capacitor. The duration of the sleep period depends on the load current and the inductor peak current.

During the sleep periods, the quiescent current of the TPS82740 is reduced to 360nA. This low quiescent current consumption is achieved by an ultra low power voltage reference, an integrated high impedance (typ. 50MΩ) feedback divider network and an optimized DCS-Control™ block.
