Page 9: Introduction
Chapter 1 Introduction This chapter contains background information for the TPS54614 and support documentation for the TPS54614 EVM evaluation module. The TPS54614 EVM performance specifications are given, as well as modification instructions if different preset output voltages are desired. Topic Page Background . -
Page 10: Background
Texas Instruments application report SLVA105 – Designing With Internally Compensated SWIFTt Regulators. 1.2 Performance Specification Summary A summary of the TPS54614EVM performance specifications is provided by Table 1–1. All specifications are given for an ambient temperature of 25°C, unless otherwise noted. -
Page 11: Modifications
Modifications 1.3 Modifications The EVM can be modified for different preset output voltages by using other devices in the TPS5461x family. For output voltages less than 2.5 V, only U1 needs to be changed. For output voltages 2.5 V and higher, the output capacitor (C1) also needs to be changed. -

Page 15: Efficiency
Efficiency 2.2 Efficiency The TPS54614 efficiency peaks at around 1.5 A of load current. At a full 6-A load the efficiency drops to around 83% with a 5-V input source. The efficiency shown in Figure 2–2 is typical for an ambient temperature of 25°C. The efficiency is lower at higher ambient temperatures, due to temperature variation in the drain-to-source resistance of the MOSFETs. -
Page 16: Thermal Performance
Thermal Performance 2.3 Thermal Performance The plot in Figure 2–4 shows the junction temperature versus the load current at 25°C ambient temperature. The case temperature is plotted in Figure 2–5. The low junction-to-case thermal resistance of the PWP package, along with a good board layout, helps to keep the junction temperature low at high output currents. -
Page 17: Output Voltage Regulation
Output Voltage Regulation 2.4 Output Voltage Regulation The output voltage load regulation at 25°C is shown in Figure 2–6. The output voltage varies less than 0.3% over the entire input voltage range of 3.3 V to 5.0 V, and load range of 0 A to 6 A. Figure 2–6. -
Page 18: Load Transients
Output Voltage Regulation 2.5 Load Transients The TPS54614 EVM response to load transients is shown in Figure 2–7 and Figure 2–8. The load transient in Figure 2–7 transitions from 1.5 A to 4.5 A in 16 µs, while the load transient in Figure 2–8 transitions from 4.5 A to 1.5 A in 12 µs. -
Page 19: Loop Characteristics
Output Voltage Regulation 2.6 Loop Characteristics The loop gain and phase for a 5.0-V input and a 6.0-A load are shown in Figure 2–9 and Figure 2–10. The loop crossover frequency is approximately 50 kHz, and the phase margin is approximately 46°. Figure 2–9. -
Page 20: Output Voltage Ripple
Output Voltage Regulation 2.7 Output Voltage Ripple The output ripple voltage is plotted in Figure 2–11 for a 3.3-V input, and in Figure 2–12 for a 5.0-V input. The TPS54614 has a typical output voltage ripple of less than 15 mV Figure 2–11. -
Page 21: Input Voltage Ripple
Output Voltage Regulation 2.8 Input Voltage Ripple The input voltage ripple for a 6-A load is shown in Figure 2–13 for a 3.3-V input and in Figure 2–14 for a 5.0-V input. With a 5.0-V input, the ripple is approximately 260 mVpp. The input voltage ripple can be made lower by adding capacitance to the input. -
Page 22: Start-Up
Output Voltage Regulation 2.9 Start-Up The start-up voltage waveform of the TPS54614 EVM is shown in Figure 2–15. The TPS54614 output begins to rise when the input rises above the 3.0-V startup level. The output voltage then ramps linearly to 1.8 V in 3.6 ms. -
