The TPS629203 is a DCS control (COT), high-efficiency, easy-to-use, synchronous buck converter, and the typical Iq is 4uA. In VIN = 10V and Vout = 3.3V power rail, input and output capacitor of TPS629203 are chosen as CIN=1uF (GRM21BR71E105KA99L) and COUT = 10uF (GRM21BR61E106MA73L). Considering the DC bias effect and capacitance variation of ceramic capacitor, the actual capacitance can be considered as CIN = 0.9uF, Cout = 5.8uF. From the mode description in TPS629203 300mA, 3V to 17V Low IQ Buck Converter with DCS-Control data sheet, constant Ton time with AEE function is calculated by using Equation 9.
To meet the target of ripple is 0.2% of input and output voltage in Table 1-2. The inductor can be calculated as L≤ 5.6uH from Equation 3 and Equation 8. Figure 3-1 is schematic for whole design. Considering the input capacitance is low, users can encounter oscillation problems, especially when the input trace is long. Therefore, TI recommends to add a 1 ohm resistor (R3) at input trace for damping.
