Setting the PWM-VFO Threshold using the SRT pin

The TPS23751 and TPS23752 internally compares modified voltages at the SRT and CTL pins to determine the operating mode. The designer should consider the light load operating point (considering the value of VCTL) where synchronous rectifier (M2 in Figure 31) gate drive and switching losses nearly match conduction losses of the rectifier diode (DOUT in Figure 31). Typically, the designer characterizes circuit efficiency, output load, and control pin (VCTL) voltage and then select the transition point. Both VFO → PWM (occurs at higher load current due to natural hysteresis) and PWM → VFO (occurs at slightly lower load current) transitions should be considered when choosing the VSRT setpoint. As an example:

  1. Assume that the desired efficiency transition threshold occurs at 18% of full load and VCTL = 2.0 V
  2. Determine where to set VSRT.

  4. Set VSRT using a voltage divider from VB to ARTN as shown in Figure 31.
  5. Choose RSRT1 = 100 kΩ and then calculate RSRT2 as follows:

  7. Select 11 kΩ for RSRT2.
