Part Number:TPS56C215EVM-762
Hi TI expert,
I am Morris who is TI technician. I meet a technical problme on TPS56C215 EVM.
I based on customer's request to modfy TPS56c215 EVM, the following is the bom list.
L=0.47uH, output cap.=22uF*10, Cff=200pF, RM_L=20kohm, RM_H=160Kohm
When I did transient test by below condition that has audible noise and transient performance was very bad. 400mVpp. Please refer the attached file.
Vin = 5V, Vout = 3.3V, Freq = 800KHz,
transient condition
0.9A - 9A slew rate is 2.5A/us, high = 0.5s, low = 0.5s
After I changed Vin from 5V to 12V and keep Vout was 3.3V, the audible noise was gone and transient performance become good (about 168mVpp). Please refer the attached file.
Question :
1. Is any duty cycle limitation for TPS56C215?
2. Why higher duty cycle will impact transient performance and cause audible noise.
3. If my customer still want to use 5V to 3.3V applicaion, how to solve this problme? I have tried below metholds, but still can't solve it.
a.I changed freq from 400KHz to 1.2MHz all can't solve it
b.I also try different inductance 0.47uF and 1uF both can't sovle it.
c.I have added output caps from 88uF to 220uF all can't sovle it.
