7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The TPS61175-Q1 integrates a 40-V low side switch FET for up to 38-V output. The device regulates the output
with current mode PWM (pulse width modulation) control. The PWM control circuitry turns on the switch at the
beginning of each switching cycle. The input voltage is applied across the inductor and stores the energy as
inductor current ramps up. During this portion of the switching cycle, the load current is provided by the output
capacitor. When the inductor current rises to the threshold set by the error amplifier output, the power switch
turns off and the external Schottky diode is forward biased. The inductor transfers stored energy to replenish the
output capacitor and supply the load current. This operation repeats each every switching cycle. As shown in the
block diagram, the duty cycle of the converter is determined by the PWM control comparator which compares the
error amplifier output and the current signal. The switching frequency is programmed by the external resistor or
synchronized to an external clock signal.
A ramp signal from the oscillator is added to the current ramp to provide slope compensation. Slope
compensation is necessary to avoid subharmonic oscillation that is intrinsic to the current mode control at duty
cycle higher than 50%. If the inductor value is lower than 4.7μH, the slope compensation may not be adequate.
The feedback loop regulates the FB pin to a reference voltage through a transconductance error amplifier. The
output of the error amplifier is connected to the COMP pin. An external RC compensation network is connected
to the COMP pin to optimize the feedback loop for stability and transient response.

Alternatively, the TPS61175-Q1 switching frequency will synchronize to an external clock signal that is applied to
the SYNC pin. The logic level of the external clock is shown in the specification table. The duty cycle of the clock
is recommended in the range of 10% to 90%. The resistor also must be connected to the FREQ pin when IC is
switching by the external clock. The external clock frequency must be within ±20% of the corresponding
frequency set by the resistor. For example, if the corresponding frequency as set by a resistor on the FREQ pin
is 1.2-MHz, the external clock signal should be in the range of 0.96-MHz to 1.44-MHz.
If the external clock signal is higher than the frequency per the resistor on the FREQ pin, the maximum duty
cycle specification (DMAX) should be lowered by 2%. For instance, if the resistor set value is 2.5MHz, and the
external clock is 3MHz, DMAX is 87% instead of 89%.
When the EN is pulled low for 10-ms, the IC enters shutdown and the SS capacitor discharges through a 5kΩ
resistor for the next soft start.

In discontinuous mode the duty cycle is a function of the load, input and output voltages, inductance and
switching frequency as computed below:
2 ´ (VOUT + VD - VIN ) ´ L ´ IOUT ´ ¦ SW
D=
VIN (4)
All converters using a diode as the freewheeling or catch component have a load current level at which they
transition from discontinuous conduction to continuous conduction. This is the point where the inductor current
just falls to zero. At higher load currents, the inductor current does not fall to zero but remains flowing in a
positive direction and assumes a trapezoidal wave shape as opposed to a triangular wave shape. This load
boundary between discontinuous conduction and continuous conduction can be found for a set of converter
parameters as follows.
(VOUT + VD - VIN ) ´ VIN2
IOUT(crit) =
2 ´ (VOUT + VD ) 2 ´ ¦ SW ´ L (5)
For loads higher than the result of the equation above, the duty cycle is given by Equation 3 and for loads less
than the results of Equation 4, the duty cycle is given in Equation 5. For Equation 3 through Equation 5, the
variable definitions are as follows.
• VOUT is the output voltage of the converter in V
• VD is the forward conduction voltage drop across the rectifier or catch diode in V
• VIN is the input voltage to the converter in V
• IOUT is the output current of the converter in A
• L is the inductor value in H
• fSW is the switching frequency in Hz
Unless otherwise stated, the design equations that follow assume that the converter is running in continuous
mode.
Choosing the inductor ripple current to closer to 20% of the average inductor current results in a larger
inductance value, maximizes the converter’s potential output current and minimizes EMI. Choosing the inductor
ripple current closer to 40% of IL(AVG) results in a smaller inductance value, and a physically smaller inductor,
improves transient response but results in potentially higher EMI and lower efficiency if the DCR of the smaller
packaged inductor is significantly higher. Using an inductor with a smaller inductance value than computed
above may result in the converter operating in DCM. This reduces the boost converter’s maximum output current,
causes larger input voltage and output ripple and typically reduces efficiency. Table 4 lists the recommended
inductor for the TPS61175-Q1.
The device has built-in slope compensation to avoid subharmonic oscillation associated with current mode
control. If the inductor value is lower than 4.7μH, the slope compensation may not be adequate, and the loop can
be unstable. Applications requiring inductors above 47μH have not been evaluated. Therefore, the user is
responsible for verifying operation if they select an inductor that is outside the 4.7μH–47μH recommended range.
Increasing switching frequency reduces the value of external capacitors and inductors, but also reduces the
power conversion efficiency. The user should set the frequency for the minimum tolerable efficiency.

NOTE
If Se slope dominates Sn, that is, when the inductance is oversized in order to give ripple
current much smaller than the recommended 0.2 – 0.4 times the average input current,
then the converter behaves more like a voltage mode converter, and the above model no
longer holds.

The next step is to choose the loop crossover frequency, fC. The higher in frequency that the loop gain stays
above zero before crossing over, the faster the loop response will be and therefore the lower the output voltage
will droop during a step load. It is generally accepted that the loop gain cross over no higher than the lower of
either 1/5 of the switching frequency, fSW, or 1/3 of the RHPZ frequency, fRHPZ. To approximate a single pole roll-
off up to fP2, select R3 so that the compensation gain, KCOMP, at fC on Figure 11 is the reciprocal of the gain, KPW,
read at frequency fC from the Figure 10 bode plot or more simply
KCOMP(fC) = 20 × log(GEA × R3 × R2/(R2+R1)) = 1/KPW(fC)
This makes the total loop gain, T(s) = GPS(s) × HEA(s), zero at the fC. Then, select C4 so that fZ ≅ fC/10 and
optional fP2> fC *10. Following this method should lead to a loop with a phase margin near 45 degrees. Lowering
R3 while keeping fZ ≅ fC/10 increases the phase margin and therefore increases the time it takes for the output
voltage to settle following a step load.
In the TPS61175-Q1, if the FB pin voltage changes suddenly due to a load step on the output voltage, the error
amplifier increases its transconductance for 8-ms in an effort to speed up the IC’s transient response and reduce
output voltage droop due to the load step. For example, if the FB voltage decreases 10-mV due to load change,
the error amplifier increases its source current through COMP by 5 times; if FB voltage increases 11-mV, the
sink current through COMP is increased to 3.5 times normal value. This feature often results in saw tooth ringing
on the output voltage, shown as Figure 13. Designing the loop for greater than 45 degrees of phase margin and
greater than 10db gain margin minimizes the amplitude of this ringing. This feature is disabled during soft start.
