2.2 Design Considerations

By connecting 27.4-kΩ resistor on MODE/S-CONF pin, the device is configured to:

  • VSET operation: VOUT is sensed only through the VOS pin by an internal resistor divider. The target output voltage is programmed by an external resistor connected between the FB/VSET pin and GND. In this design, FB/VSET pin is floating and thus the VOUT is programmed to 3.3-V
  • 2.5-MHz Switching Frequency with AEE (Automatic Efficiency Enhancement): The MODE/S-CONF pin is configured to AEE mode which provides efficiency enhancement over the entire input voltage and output voltage range by automatically adjusting the switching frequency of the converter. The efficiency decreases if VOUT decreases, VIN increases, or both. To keep the efficiency high over the entire duty cycle range (VOUT/VIN ratio), the switching frequency is adjusted while maintaining the ripple current. The AEE feature provides an efficiency enhancement for various duty cycle, especially for lower VOUT values where fixed frequency converters suffer from a significant efficiency drop. Furthermore, this feature compensates for the very small duty cycle of high VIN to low VOUT conversion, which limits the control range in other topology.
  • Power Save Mode Operation(Auto PFM/PWM): The MODE/S-CONF pin is configured for power save mode(Auto PFM/PWM). The device operates in PWM mode as long as the output current is higher than half of the ripple current of the inductor. 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 of the ripple current of the inductor. The power save mode is entered seamlessly when the load current decreases. This ensures 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 in and out of power save mode is seamless in both directions.
  • Output Discharge Function Enabled: The output discharge function is enabled to ensure a defined down-ramp of the output voltage when the device is being disabled but also to keep the output voltage close to 0-V when the device is off. The output discharge feature is only active once TPS629210-Q1 have been enabled at least once since the supply voltage is applied.
