GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TEA1207T is a fully integrated DC/DC converter.
Efficient, compact and dynamic power conversion is
achieved using a novel digitally controlled concept like
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) or Pulse Frequency
Modulation (PFM), integrated low R
DSon
CMOS power
switches with low parasitic capacitances, and fully
synchronous rectification.
The device operates at 275 kHz switching frequency
which enables the use of external components with
minimum size. Deadlock is prevented by an on-chip
undervoltage lockout circuit.
Efficient behaviour during short load peaks and
compatibility with Li-ion batteries is guaranteed by an
accurate current limiting function.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Control mechanism
TheTEA1207T DC/DC converter is able to operate in PFM
(discontinuous conduction) or PWM (continuous
conduction) operating mode. All switching actions are
completely determined by a digital control circuit which
usesthe output voltage level as its control input. This novel
digital approach enables the use of a new pulse width and
frequency modulation scheme, which ensures optimum
power efficiency over the complete operating range of the
converter.
When high output power is requested, the device will
operate in PWM (continuous conduction) operating mode.
This results in minimum AC currents in the circuit
components and hence optimum efficiency, minimum
costs and low EMC. In this operating mode, the output
voltage is allowed to vary between two predefined voltage
levels. As long as the output voltage stays within this
so-called window, switching continues in a fixed pattern.
When the output voltage reaches one of the window
borders, the digital controller immediately reacts by
adjusting the pulse width and inserting a current step in
such a way that the output voltage stays withinthe window
with higher or lower current capability. This approach
enables very fast reaction to load variations. Figure 3
shows the converter’s response to a sudden load
increase. The upper trace shows the output voltage.
The ripple on top of the DC level is a result of the current
in the output capacitor, which changes in sign twice per
cycle, times the capacitor’s internal Equivalent Series
Resistance (ESR). After each ramp-down of the inductor
current, i.e. when the ESR effect increases the output
voltage, the converter determines what to do in the next
cycle. As soon as more load current is taken from the
output the output voltage starts to decay.
When the output voltage becomes lower than the low limit
of the window, a corrective action is taken by a ramp-up of
theinductor current during a much longer time. Asaresult,
the DC current level is increased and normal PWM control
can continue. The output voltage (including ESR effect) is
again within the predefined window. Figure 4 depicts the
spread of the output voltage window. The absolute value
ismostdependentonspread,whiletheactual window size
is not affected. For one specific device, the output voltage
will not vary more than 2% typically.
In low output power situations, the TEA1207T will switch
over to PFM (discontinuous conduction) operating mode.
In this mode, regulation information from earlier PWM
operating modes is used. This results in optimum inductor
peak current levels in the PFM mode, which are slightly
larger than the inductor ripple current in the PWM mode.
As a result, the transition between PFM and PWM mode is
optimum under all circumstances. In the PFM mode the
TEA1207Tregulates the output voltage to the high window
limit as shown in Fig.3.
Synchronous rectification
For optimum efficiency over the whole load range,
synchronous rectifiers inside the TEA1207T ensure that
during the whole second switching phase, all inductor
current will flow through the low-ohmic power MOSFETs.
Special circuitry is included whichdetects that the inductor
current reaches zero. Following this detection, the digital
controller switches off the power MOSFET and proceeds
regulation.
