TLV62569A: Cout capacitor

Part Number: TLV62569A
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TINA-TI

Dear *,

we are looking at the TLV62569A  and output capacitor , we see that there are some recommended COUT values.

If we want to power FPGA core voltage with this device, the FPGA core has some distributed decoupling capacitance aground the FPGA ( Eg. 10x100nF + 5x10uF + 2x100uF ~ 250uF to 300uF),

the TLV62569A  is 10cm away from FPGA and with a plane connected to the fpga rail.

1) Do you see any problem regarding load transient or instability for this configuration?

2) Because the effective Cout is more than 47uF, or is the 22uF-47uF from DS minimal value?

3) what is the negative impact of this much capacitance?

4) if we add a cff will this make a difference?

Is it possible and how to simulate this with WEBENCH?

Best Regards,.

  • Hi David,

    Please see comments below as highlighted.

    1) Do you see any problem regarding load transient or instability for this configuration? --> Output capacitance outside the Lout and Cout matrix shown in the datasheet might result to low phase margin and/or output voltage oscillation during transient load. I suggest to check the phase margin (= > 40deg.) or its transient response (slva381b).

    2) Because the effective Cout is more than 47uF, or is the 22uF-47uF from DS minimal value? --> The Cout in the matrix is the nominal value while the effective capacitance is in the range of +20% to -50%.

    3) what is the negative impact of this much capacitance? --> Reduce phase margin

    4) if we add a cff will this make a difference? --> It is a case to case basis but it is a worth to try. Check the app note (SLVA289B)

    Is it possible and how to simulate this with WEBENCH? --> It is not possible to use WEBENCH for loop stability measurement.

  • Dear Excel,

    thank you for the replay. I have couple of more questions.

    1a) Because the AC simulation ( bode-plot) is not possible in WEBENCH, is the transient possible?

    1b) What is the proper way to set-up the transient simulation for TLV62569A IN WEBENCH to check stability?

    1c) How can i add Cff in WEBENCH for TLV62569A?

    1d) if non of above is possible, how can i export this to TINA TI? Which simulation ( AC Bode, or transient) is available for TLV62569A in TINA-TI?

    2) Which of your devices would your recommend over TLV62569A that is in similar price range?

    Best Regards.

  • Hi David,

    Please see response below as highlighted.

    1a) Because the AC simulation ( bode-plot) is not possible in WEBENCH, is the transient possible? --> Yes, you can simulate transient in WEBENCH. The transient load parameters can modified as well. See figure below.

    1b) What is the proper way to set-up the transient simulation for TLV62569A IN WEBENCH to check stability? --> The necessary transient load parameters can be configured. See figure below.

    1c) How can i add Cff in WEBENCH for TLV62569A? --> WEBENCH does not support feedforward capacitor on TLV62569A.

    1d) if non of above is possible, how can i export this to TINA TI? Which simulation ( AC Bode, or transient) is available for TLV62569A in TINA-TI? --> I will get back to you on how to convert the WEBENCH model so it will work in TINA-TI platform.

    2) Which of your devices would your recommend over TLV62569A that is in similar price range? --> TLV62569A is from the value line product so this is the most cost effective solution.

  • Hi David,

    I cannot make the pspice model worked in TI-TINA. Do you have Cadence or Simetrix because the model should work?

    Best regards,

    Excel

  • Dear Excel,

    please can you provide the simulation in Cadence? then i will try it out.

    Best Regards,

    David.

  • Dear David,

    Sorry for a delayed response, Excel is not feeling well. The pspice model is available on the following link:

    http://www.ti.com/product/TLV62569A/toolssoftware

    I have also attached the model with this post for your convenience.

    Pls let me know if you need additional help.

    Thanks and Regards,
