Chapter 1 Hardware The TL5001EVM–097 (SLVP097) provides a method for evaluating the perfor- mance of a buck converter using the TL5001 pulse-width-modulation (PWM) controller coupled with a TPS2817 MOSFET driver. This manual explains how to construct basic power conversion circuits including the design of the control chip functions and the basic loop.
Introduction 1.1 Introduction Low cost and design simplicity make buck converters popular solutions in dc/ dc step-down applications where lack of isolation from the input source is not a concern. Loop compensation for the buck converter can be set for high band- widths.

Chapter 2 Design Procedure The SLVP097 evaluation module provides a method for evaluating the perfor- mance of the TPS2817 MOSFET driver and the TL5001 PWM controller. The TPS2817 contains all of the circuitry necessary to drive large MOSFETs, in- cluding a voltage regulator for higher voltage applications. This section ex- plains how to construct basic power conversion circuits including the design of the control chip functions and the basic loop.

Introduction 2.1 Introduction The SLVP097 is a dc-dc buck converter module that provides a 5-V or 3.3-V output at up to 2.5 A with an input voltage range of 5.5 V to 12 V. The controller is a TL5001 PWM operating at a nominal frequency of 275 kHz. The TL5001 is configured for a maximum duty cycle of 100 percent and has short-circuit protection built in.

Detailed steps in the design of a buck-mode converter may be found in Designing With the TL5001C PWM Controller (literature number SLVA034) from Texas Instruments. This section shows the basic steps involved in this design, using the 3.3-V output mode.
Design Procedures Assuming total switching time, t , = 100 ns, a 55°C maximum ambient tem- perature, and r adjustment factor (for high temperature) = 1.6, then: DS(ON) 2.5 2 (0.04 1.6) 10 3 0.41 W The thermal impedance R = 90°C/W for FR-4 with 2-oz.
Design Procedures Soft-start is added to reduce power-up transients. This is implemented by adding a capacitor across the dead-time resistor. In this design, a soft-start time of 5 ms is used: 0.005 s 47 k The TL5001 has short circuit protection (SCP) instead of a current sense cir- cuit.
Design Procedures This information is enough to calculate the required compensation values. Figure 2–1 shows the power stage gain and phase plots. Figure 2–1. Power Stage Response FREQUENCY RESPONSE –45 –90 –135 –180 –225 –10 –270 –20 –315 –30 –360 10 2 10 3 10 4...

Design Procedures The sum of the gains of the modulator, the LC filter, and the error amplifier needs to be 0 dB at the selected unity-gain frequency of 20 kHz. The modulator and LC filter gain is –14 dB. The two zeroes at 1.87 kHz in the compensation network that cancels the LC poles will have a total gain of 41.2 dB at 20 kHz.
