THV6531 Datasheet, PDF (7/11 Pages) THine Electronics, Inc. – THV6531 is a controller IC power supply system with
THL6531_Rev.1.01_E
determined by the output capacitor total capacitance,
COUT, and the output
VLSrip  D  IOUT  I peak  ESR
FOSC  COUT
I peak  I IN  I rip

The first ripple component can be reduced by increasing
COUT since FOSC is fixed 1.2MHz(typ). Changing COUT
may require adjustment of compensation R and C in
order to provide adequate phase margin and loop
bandwidth.
The second ripple component can be reduced by
selecting low-ESR ceramic capacitors and using several
smaller capacitors in parallel instead of just one large
capacitor.
[Inductor selection]
To prevent magnetic saturation of the inductor core the
inductor has to be rated for a maximum current larger
than IPK in a given application. Since the chip provides
current limit protection of 3A, it is generally
recommended that the inductor be rated at least for 3A.
Selection of the inductor requires trade-off between the
physical size (footprint x height) and its electrical
properties (current rating, inductance, resistance). Within
a given footprint and height, an inductor with larger
inductance typically comes with lower current rating and
often larger series resistance. Larger inductance typically
requires more turns on the winding, a smaller core gap or
a core material with a larger relative permeability. An
inductor with a larger physical size has better electrical
properties than a smaller inductor.
It is desirable to reduce the ripple current ΔIrip in order to
reduce voltage noise on the input and output capacitors.
In practice, the inductor is often much larger than the
capacitors and it is easier and cheaper to increase the size
of the capacitors. The ripple current ΔIrip is then chosen
the largest possible while at the same time not degrading
the maximum input and output current that the converter
can operate with before reaching the current limit of the
chip or the rated current of the inductor.
I peak  I IN  I rip  I MAX

For example, ΔIrip could be set to 20% of IMAX
Voltage detector circuit
During power-up, once VIN exceeds VUVLO, the
controller initiates a 163ms blanking period during which
the input voltage at DIN is ignored and the DOUT pin is
floated to high impedance. An external pull up resistor
should pull DOUT high. After this blanking period, the
DIN function is enabled, with DOUT driven low if DIN
falls below VDIN, or floated high if DIN rises above VDIN.
To the external voltage Vext, the rising and falling
detection thresholds VDET,High and VDET,Low, respectively
are set by the external voltage divider R3, R4.
