Constant Off-Time vs. Constant µs×V operation

Although commonly referred to as constant off-time, the off-time does vary with the output voltage in the standard TPS92518-Q1 configuration. This relation ensures constant peak-to-peak inductor current ripple (ΔIL-PP). Although not common, the VLEDx pin can be set to a fixed value to generate a truly constant off-time and limit changes in frequency, however current regulation degrades. To maintain regulation and a constant ripple over various output voltages, the converter off-time must become shorter or longer as VLEDx pin voltage changes. This results in a change in frequency. In this regard, the off-time register can be considered as a seconds-times-volts setting (s × V) for the converter. The TPS92518-Q1Electrical Characteristics table specification for off-time specifies a certain off time duration for a certain register value. The time is also dependent on the VLEDx pin voltage. For example, the off-time is specified at 4 µs for a VVLEDx= 30 V and LEDx_TOFF_DAC = 255. The internal analog circuitry operates to keep the ripple and µs·V (micro-second volt) product constant. If the LEDx voltage changes to 15 V, the off time adjusts to 8 µs. If the LEDx voltage changes to 60 V the off time adjusts to 2 µs, and so on.

Two general cases can be examined: If the input voltage and output voltage are relatively constant, the frequency also remains constant. If either the input voltage or the output voltage changes, the frequency changes. For a fixed input voltage, the device operates at the maximum frequency at 50% duty cycle and the frequency reduces as the duty cycle becomes shorter or longer. A graphical representation is shown in Figure 17.

For a fixed output voltage (VVLEDx), the off-time stays fixed. The frequency then increases as the duty cycle becomes smaller with an increasing VIN voltage. This relation is shown in Figure 18.
