TPS54060A www.ti.com SLVSB57B – MARCH 2012 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2013 OVERVIEW The TPS54060A device is a 60-V, 0.5-A, step-down (buck) regulator with an integrated high side n-channel MOSFET. To improve performance during line and load transients the device implements a constant frequency, current mode control which reduces output capacitance and simplifies external frequency compensation design.
TPS54060A SLVSB57B – MARCH 2012 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2013 www.ti.com DETAILED DESCRIPTION Fixed Frequency PWM Control The TPS54060A uses an adjustable fixed frequency, peak current mode control. The output voltage is compared through external resistors on the VSENSE pin to an internal voltage reference by an error amplifier which drives the COMP pin. An internal oscillator initiates the turn on of the high side power switch. The error amplifier output is compared to the high side power switch current.

Pulse Skip Mode Operation Low Dropout Operation and Bootstrap Voltage (BOOT) The TPS54060A has an integrated boot regulator, and requires a small ceramic capacitor between the BOOT and PH pins to provide the gate drive voltage for the high side MOSFET. The BOOT capacitor is refreshed when the high side MOSFET is off and the low side diode conducts.

The RT/CLK pin voltage is typically 0.5V and must have a resistor to ground to set the switching frequency.
TPS54060A SLVSB57B – MARCH 2012 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2013 www.ti.com DETAILED DESCRIPTION (continued) Selecting the Switching Frequency The switching frequency that is selected should be the lower value of the two equations, Equation 12 and Equation 13. Equation 12 is the maximum switching frequency limitation set by the minimum controllable on time. Setting the switching frequency above this value will cause the regulator to skip switching pulses.
