ZHCS453D August 2011 – April 2021 TPS53353
PRODUCTION DATA
The TPS53353 is a high-efficiency, single channel, synchronous buck converter suitable for low output voltage point-of-load applications in computing and similar digital consumer applications. The device features proprietary D-CAP? mode control combined with an adaptive on-time architecture. This combination is ideal for building modern low duty ratio, ultra-fast load step response DC-DC converters. The output voltage ranges from 0.6 V to 5.5 V. The conversion input voltage range is from 1.5 V up to 15 V and the VDD bias voltage is from 4.5 V to 25 V. The D-CAP? mode uses the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the output capacitor(s) to sense the device current . One advantage of this control scheme is that it does not require an external phase compensation network. This allows a simple design with a low external component count. Eight preset switching frequency values can be chosen using a resistor connected from the RF pin to ground or VREG. Adaptive on-time control tracks the preset switching frequency over a wide input and output voltage range while allowing the switching frequency to increase at the step-up of the load.
The TPS53353 has a MODE pin to select between auto-skip mode and forced continuous conduction mode (FCCM) for light load conditions. The MODE pin also sets the selectable soft-start time ranging from 0.7 ms to 5.6 ms as shown in Table 7-3.
