FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

The TS30021/22/23 current-mode synchronous step-down power supply product is ideal for use in the commercial, industrial,

and automotive market segments. It includes flexibility to be used for a wide range of output voltage and is optimized for high

low cost LC filter combinations. Additionally, the fixed output versions enable a minimum external component count to provide

a complete regulation solution with only 4 external components: an input bypass capacitor, an inductor, an output capacitor,

and the bootstrap capacitor. The regulator automatically transitions between PFM and PWM mode to maximize efficiency for

the load demand.

In addition, the TS30021/22/23 provides a linear low drop-out regulator capable of operating over a wide range of output

voltage, input voltage and output current. LDO operation only requires 4 external components: an input bypass capacitor, an

output capacitor and two resistors to set output voltage. It features a separate input supply pin that is regulated down to the

output voltage. This supply input can be connected to the main SMPS supply (VCC) or the SMPS output (VOUT) or to a separate

supply thus making the device very flexible.

DETAILED PIN DESCRIPTION

Unregulated input, VCC

This terminal is the unregulated input voltage source for the IC. It is recommended that a 10uF bypass capacitor be placed

close to the device for best performance. Since this is the main supply for the IC, good layout practices need to be followed for

this connection.

Bootstrap control, BST

This terminal will provide the bootstrap voltage required for the upper internal NMOS switch of the buck regulator. An external

ceramic capacitor placed between the BST input terminal and the VSW pin will provide the necessary voltage for the upper

switch. In normal operation the capacitor is re-charged on every low side synchronous switching action. In the case of where

the switch mode approaches 100% duty cycle for the high side FET, the device will automatically reduce the duty cycle switch

Sense feedback, FB

This is the input terminal for the output voltage feedback.

possible, and should be made as close as possible to the capacitor. The trace should not be shared with any other connection.

For adjustable mode versions, this should be connected to the external resistor divider. To choose the resistors, use the

following equation:
