Hi,
I need PCB design review based on TPS56837.
I also need EVM pcb files if possible.
Thanks

Hi Ali,
Please send me an email (miranda-gu@ti.com). I will share you through email.
Hi Miranda Gu
I want to share files in private rather than publicly.
Let me know the process for it.
Thanks
Hi Khan
The Miranda is OOO, please send the PCB files to my email(xueliang.zhang@ti.com), I will review it and give you a feedback, thanks!
I have a question. I saw many markets BEC that used big Capacitors for same functions.
Is it necessary in my case if i have to run motors?
Thanks
Hello Ali,
I have sent you PCB file on 12/15, have you received it?

Thanks for sharing me the web link. It's a new application to me.
Could you share more application details? I don't know where is 'big capacitor' that you said. If you mean add a big Electrolytic Cap (E-cap) at TPS56837 output, please take care of it. Because the E-cap has high ESR and will introduce a low-frequency ESR-zero into loop, which may cause loop instability. If you have to use the high-ESR E-cap, please remove the Cff and add a small Cfb from FB-pin to GND (Cfb value cannot be large, try 100pF), like below.

And seems the product you shared supports adjustable Vout. But our device is a simple buck without any I2C/PMBus/... interface, if you need Vout adjustment, you may add more circuits to implement (e.g add a MOS switch to change FB resistor).
Hi Miranda Gu
Yes i received PCB files.
I don't need adjustable because i required two outputs and i did it using jumper and resistor.
I have to run some servo motors and i found most of the buck converter available in the market used big E-CAP. I was curious if i need as well because i followed WEBENCH design to create the board.
Thanks
Hi Ali,
Webench design follows our datasheet recommended LC table (Table 8-2), which is based on MLCC Cout, not E-cap Cout.
If you need to use E-cap Cout, as I suggested in previous reply, please remove Cff and add a small Cfb to ensure loop stability. You can send me your schematic for review (you know my email address).
