7FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
7.1Introduction
The TEA1211HN is able to operate in Pulse Frequency
Modulation (PFM) or discontinuous conduction mode as
well as in Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) or continuous
conduction mode. All switching actions are completely
determined by a digital control circuit which uses the
output voltage levelas control input. This digital approach
enables the use of a new pulse width and frequency
modulation scheme, which ensures optimum power
efficiency over the complete range of operation of the
converter.
7.2Control mechanism
Depending on load current I
and VIN to V
load
ratio, the
OUT
controller choosesa mode ofoperation. Whenhigh output
power is requested, the device will operate in PWM
(continuousconduction)mode, whichis a2-phase cyclein
up- as well as in down mode. For small load currents the
controller will switch over to PFM (discontinuous mode),
which is either a 3- or 4-phase cycle depending on the
input to output ratio, see Fig.3.

DC/DC converter
7.2.1PWM
PWM results in minimum AC currents in the circuit
components and hence optimum efficiency, cost and
EMC. In this mode the output voltage is allowed to vary
between two predefined voltage levels. When 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 duty cycle and
inserting a current step in such a way that the output
voltage stays within the window with higher or lower
current capability. This approach enables very fast
reaction to load variations.
Figure 4 shows the TEA1211HN’s response to a sudden
load increase in case of up conversion. The upper trace
showstheoutput voltage.The rippleon topof theDC level
is a result of the current in the output capacitor, which
changes in sign twice per cycle, multiplied by the
capacitor’s internal Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR).
After eachramp-down of the inductorcurrent, or whenthe
ESR effect increases theoutput voltage, the TEA1211HN
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 ofthe window, corrective action is taken
by a ramp-upof the inductor currentduring a much longer
time. As a result, the DC current level is increased and
TEA1211HN
normal PWM control can continue. The output voltage
(including ESR effect) is again within the predefined
window.
Figure 5 depicts the spread of theoutput voltage window.
Theabsolute valueismost dependentonspread,whilethe
actualwindowsize isnot affected.For onespecific device,
the output voltage will not vary more than 2 % typically.
7.2.2PFM
In low output power situations, TEA1211HN will switch
over to PFM mode operation in case PWM-only mode is
not activated. In this mode charge is transferred from
battery to output in single pulses with a wait phase in
between. Regulation information from earlier PWM mode
operation is used. This results in optimum inductor peak
current levels in PFMmode,which are slightly larger than
the inductor ripple current in PWM mode. As a result, the
transition between PFM and PWM mode is optimal under
all circumstances. In PFM mode, the TEA1211HN
regulates the output voltage to the limits shown in Fig.5.
Depending on the VIN to V
decides for a 3- or 4-phase cycle, where the last phase is
the wait phase. When the inputvoltagealmost equals the
output voltage, one of the slopes of a 3-phase cycle
becomes weak. Then the charge, or the integral of its
pulse, is near to zero and no charge is transferred. In this
region the 4-phase cycle is used, (see Fig.3).

7.2.3SWITCHING SEQUENCE
Refer to Figures 1 and 3. In up-mode the cycle starts by
making P-down and N-up conducting in the first phase.
The second phase N-up opens and P-up starts
conducting. In down-mode the cycle startswithin the first
phase P-up and P-down conducting. The second phase
P-down opens and N-down starts conducting. In PFM
these twophases arefollowed bya thirdor waitphase that
opens all switches except for N-down, which is closed to
prevent the coil from floating.
The stationary mode or 4-phase cycle, which only occurs
in PFM, starts with in the first phase P-down and N-up
conducting. In the second phase P-down and P-up
conduct forming a short-cut from battery to output
capacitor. In the third phase P-up and N-down conduct.
The fourth or wait-phase again opens all switches except
for N-downwhich isclosed toprevent thecoil from floating.
7.3Adjustable output voltage
Theoutput voltageof theTEA1211HN canbeset toa fixed
value by means of an external resistive divider. After
start-up through thisdivider, dynamic control ofthe output
voltage ismade possible by useof an I2C-bus. Theoutput
voltage can be programmed from 1.5 V to 5.5 V in
40 steps of 0.1 V each.Incase of Power Amplifiers (PAs)
for example the outputvoltage of the TEA1211HN can be
adjusted to the output power to be transmitted by the PA,
in order to obtain maximum system efficiency.
7.4Start-up
If the input voltage exceeds the start voltage, the
TEA1211HN starts ramping up the voltage at the output
capacitor. Rampingstops when thetarget level, setby the
external resistors, is reached.
7.5Under voltage lockout
As a result of too high load or disconnection of the input
power source, the input voltage can drop too low to
guarantee normal regulation. In that case, the device
switches to a shut-down mode stopping the switching
completely. Start-up is possible by crossing the start-up
level again.
7.6Shut-down
When pin SHDWN is made HIGH, the converter disables
all switches except for N-down (see Fig.1) and power
consumption is reduced to a few µA. N-down is kept
conducting to prevent the coil from floating.
7.7Power switches
The power switches in the IC are two N-type and two
P-type MOSFETs,having atypical pin-to-pin resistanceof
85 mΩ. The maximum continuous input/output current in
the switches is 1.7 A at 70 °C ambient temperature.
