description
The TPS2830 and TPS2831 are MOSFET drivers for synchronous-buck power stages. These devices are ideal
for designing a high-performance power supply using a switching controller that does not include suitable
MOSFET drivers on the chip. The drivers are designed to deliver 2.4-A peak currents into large capacitive loads.
Higher currents can be controlled by using multiple drivers in a multiphase configuration. The high-side driver
can be configured as a ground-reference driver or as a floating bootstrap driver. An adaptive dead-time control
circuit eliminates shoot-through currents through the main power FETs during switching transitions, and
provides high efficiency for the buck regulator. The TPS2830/31 drivers have additional control functions:
ENABLE, SYNC, and CROWBAR. Both drivers are off when ENABLE is low. The driver is configured as a
nonsynchronous-buck driver when SYNC is low. The CROWBAR function turns on the low-side power FET,
overriding the IN signal, for over-voltage protection against faulted high-side power FETs.
The TPS2830 has a noninverting input. The TPS2831 has an inverting input. The TPS2830/31 drivers are
available in 14-terminal SOIC and TSSOP packages and operate over a junction temperature range of –40°C
to 125°C.

DESCRIPTION
BOOT 14 I Bootstrap terminal. A ceramic capacitor is connected between BOOT and BOOTLO terminals to develop
the floating bootstrap voltage for the high-side MOSFET. The capacitor value is typically between 0.1 µF
and 1 µF . A 1-MΩ resistor should be connected across the bootstrap capacitor to provide a discharge path
when the driver has been powered down.
BOOTLO 11 O This terminal connects to the junction of the high-side and low-side MOSFETs.
CROWBAR 3 I CROWBAR can to be driven by an external OVP circuit to protect against a short across the high-side
MOSFET. If CROWBAR is driven low, the low-side driver will be turned on and the high-side driver will be
turned off, independent of the status of all other control terminals.
DT 6 I Deadtime control terminal. Connect DT to the junction of the high-side and low-side MOSFETs.
ENABLE 1 I If ENABLE is low, both drivers are off.
HIGHDR 12 O Output drive for the high-side power MOSFET
IN 2 I Input signal to the MOSFET drivers (noninverting input for the TPS2830; inverting input for the TPS2831).
LOWDR 10 O Output drive for the low-side power MOSFET
NC 4, 9, 13
PGND 7 Power ground. Connect to the FET power ground
SYNC 5 I Synchronous Rectifier Enable terminal. If SYNC is low, the low-side driver is always off; If SYNC is high,
the low-side driver provides gate drive to the low-side MOSFET.

8 I Input supply. Recommended that a 1-µF capacitor be connected from VCC to PGND.

detailed description
low-side driver
The low-side driver is designed to drive low Rds(on) N-channel MOSFETs. The current rating of the driver is
2 A, source and sink.
high-side driver
The high-side driver is designed to drive low Rds(on) N-channel MOSFETs. The current rating of the driver is
2 A, source and sink. The high-side driver can be configured as a GND-reference driver or as a floating bootstrap
driver. The internal bootstrap diode is a Schottky, for improved drive efficiency. The maximum voltage that can
be applied from BOOT to ground is 30 V.
deadtime (DT) control
†
Deadtime control prevents shoot through current from flowing through the main power FETs during switching
transitions by controlling the turn-on times of the MOSFET drivers. The high-side driver is not allowed to turn
on until the gate drive voltage to the low-side FET is low, and the low-side driver is not allowed to turn on until
the voltage at the junction of the power FET s (Vdrn) is low; the DT terminal connects to the junction of the power
FET s.
ENABLE
†
The ENABLE terminal enables the drivers. When enable is low, the output drivers are low.
IN
†
The IN terminal is the input control signal for the drivers. The TPS2830 has a noninverting input; the TPS2831
has an inverting input.
SYNC
†
The SYNC terminal controls whether the drivers operate in synchronous or nonsynchronous mode. In
synchronous mode, the low-side FET is operated as a synchronous rectifier. In nonsynchronous mode, the
low-side FET is always off.
CROWBAR
†
The CROWBAR terminal overrides the normal operation of the driver. When the CROWBAR terminal is low,
the low-side FET turns on to act as a clamp, protecting the output voltage of the dc/dc converter against over
voltages due to a short across the high-side FET. V
IN
should be fused to protect the low-side FET.
†
High-level input voltages on ENABLE, SYNC, CROWBAR, IN, and DT must be greater than or equal to VCC.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Figure 15 shows the circuit schematic of a 100-kHz synchronous-buck converter implemented with a TL5001A
pulse-width-modulation (PWM) controller and a TPS2831 driver. The converter operates over an input range from
4.5 V to 12 V and has a 3.3-V output. The circuit can supply 3 A continuous load. The converter achieves an efficiency
of 94% for V

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Great care should be taken when laying out the pc board. The power-processing section is the most critical and
will generate large amounts of EMI if not properly configured. The junction of Q1, Q2, and L1 should be very
tight. The connection from Q1 drain to the positive sides of C5, C10, and C1 1 and the connection from Q2 source
to the negative sides of C5, C10, and C11 should be as short as possible. The negative terminals of C7 and
C12 should also be connected to Q2 source.
Next, the traces from the MOSFET driver to the power switches should be considered. The BOOTLO signal from
the junction of Q1 and Q2 carries the large gate drive current pulses and should be as heavy as the gate drive
traces. The bypass capacitor (C14) should be tied directly across V
CC
and PGND.
The next most sensitive node is the FB node on the controller (terminal 4 on the TL5001A) This node is very
sensitive to noise pick up and should be isolated from the high-current power stage and be as short as possible.
The ground around the controller and low-level circuitry should be tied to the power ground as the output. If these
three areas are properly laid out, the rest of the circuit should not have any other EMI problems and the power
supply will be relatively free of noise.
