DESCRIPTION
As a member of the SWIFT™ family of DC/DC
regulators, the TPS5450 is a high-output-current
PWM converter that integrates a low resistance high
side N-channel MOSFET. Included on the substrate
with the listed features are a high performance
voltage error amplifier that provides tight voltage
regulation accuracy under transient conditions; an
undervoltage-lockout circuit to prevent start-up until
the input voltage reaches 5.5 V; an internally set
slow-start circuit to limit inrush currents; and a
voltage feed-forward circuit to improve the transient
response. Using the ENA pin, shutdown supply
current is reduced to 18 µ A typically. Other features
include an active-high enable, overcurrent limiting,
overvoltage protection and thermal shutdown. To
reduce design complexity and external component
count, the TPS5450 feedback loop is internally
compensated.
The TPS5450 device is available in a thermally
enhanced, 8-pin SOIC PowerPAD™ package. TI
provides evaluation modules and software tool to aid
in achieving high-performance power supply designs
to meet aggressive equipment development cycles.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Oscillator Frequency
The internal free running oscillator sets the PWM switching frequency at 500 kHz. The 500 kHz switching
frequency allows less output inductance for the same output ripple requirement resulting in a smaller output
inductor.
Voltage Reference
The voltage reference system produces a precision reference signal by scaling the output of a temperature
stable bandgap circuit. The bandgap and scaling circuits are trimmed during production testing to an output of
1.221 V at room temperature.
Enable (ENA) and Internal Slow Start
The ENA pin provides electrical on/off control of the regulator. Once the ENA pin voltage exceeds the threshold
voltage, the regulator starts operation and the internal slow start begins to ramp. If the ENA pin voltage is pulled
below the threshold voltage, the regulator stops switching and the internal slow start resets. Connecting the pin
to ground or to any voltage less than 0.5 V will disable the regulator and activate the shutdown mode. The
quiescent current of the TPS5450 in shutdown mode is typically 18 µ A.
The ENA pin has an internal pullup current source, allowing the user to float the ENA pin. If an application
requires controlling the ENA pin, use open drain or open collector output logic to interface with the pin. To limit
the start-up inrush current, an internal slow-start circuit is used to ramp up the reference voltage from 0 V to its
final value, linearly. The internal slow start time is 8 ms typically.
