Description for the TPS56100
The TPS56100 is a high-efficiency synchronous-buck regulator controller which provides an accurate programmable supply voltage to low-voltage digital signal processors, such as the `C6x and `C54x DSPs. An internal 5-bit DAC is used to program the reference voltage from 1.3 V to 2.6 V. Higher output voltages can be implemented using an external input resistive divider. The TPS56100 uses a fast hysteretic control method that provides a quick transient response. The propagation delay from the comparator input to the output driver is less than 300 ns, even at maximum output current. Overcurrent shutdown and crossover protection combine to eliminate destructive faults in the output MOSFETs, thereby protecting the processor during operation. The slowstart current source is proportional to the reference voltage, thereby eliminating variation of the slowstart timing when changes are made to the output voltage. When the output drops to less than 93% of the nominal output voltage, PWRGD will pull the open-drain output low. The overvoltage circuit will disable the output drivers if the output voltage rises more than 15% above the nominal output voltage. The TPS56100 also includes an inhibit input to control power sequencing and undervoltage lockout thereby insuring the 5-V supply is within limits before the controller starts. The 2-A MOSFET drivers can power multiple MOSFETs in parallel to drive single or multiple DSPs and load currents up to 30 A. The high-side driver can be configured as a ground-referenced driver or as a floating bootstrap driver with the included internal bootstrap Schottky diode.
The TPS56100 is available in a 28-pin TSSOP PowerPAD package, which increases thermal efficiency and eliminates bulky heat sinks.
