`
`
`I, Maureen M. Honeycutt, declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am employed by Texas Instruments, “TI.” My title is Senior
`
`Paralegal. I have personal knowledge of the facts set forth in this Declaration.
`
`2.
`
`TI is a leading global semiconductor design and manufacturing
`
`company. The publication of technical information, including datasheets that
`
`describe the performance and other characteristics of TI products, is a regular
`
`practice for TI.
`
`3.
`
`I have knowledge of TI’s practices for checking in and publishing
`
`technical documents, including on TI’s public website: www.ti.com .
`
`4.
`
`For documents TI publishes, including documents published to the
`
`Internet, it is TI’s usual practice to assign a literature number to the publication.
`
`5.
`
`For each literature number assigned, TI tracks the date the literature
`
`with the assigned number is approved for publication on www.ti.com .
`
`6.
`
`TI’s usual practice is to associate each literature number with the
`
`relevant TI product(s) and/or product family(s) on www.ti.com .
`
`7.
`
`Publications released to the internet for each associated product/product
`
`family are made available on TI’s website, www.ti.com .
`
`8.
`
`9.
`
`TI’s website is, and at all times relevant to this declaration, searchable.
`
`Exhibit 1 hereto is a true and correct copy of Literature Number
`
`SLVS171 for the TI’s datasheet titled “TPS5210 Programmable Synchronous-Buck

`

`
`
`Regulator Controller” which I obtained from TI’s Records.
`
`10. Exhibit 2 hereto is a true and correct copy of TI’s “Channel Media
`
`Authorization for Literature Number SLVS171” which I obtained from TI’s records.
`
`This document includes two entries for the SLVS171 datasheet: an Internet “Date to
`
`Add” of “24-SEP-1998,” and a “Date to Withdraw” as “13-MAY-1999.” Based on
`
`TI’s regular practice, once an Internet “Date to Add” for a document is entered, the
`
`document was available on TI’s website within 24 hours of that “Date to Add” date.
`
`Similarly, once a “Date to Withdraw” for a document is entered, the document was
`
`removed from the Internet within 24 hours of that “Date to Withdraw” date.
`
`11. Accordingly, SLVS171 datasheet (Exhibit 1) was available to the
`
`public within 24 hours of September 24, 1998. The SLVS171 datasheet (Exhibit 1)
`
`remained available to the public on TI’s website until May 13, 1999 when it was
`
`replaced by a new revision, i.e. Literature Number SLVS171A. During that period,
`
`SLVS171 datasheet (Exhibit 1) was available for download at www.ti.com at no
`
`cost. Users were not required to sign up for an account, or “log-in,” to download the
`
`SLVS171 datasheet (Exhibit 1).
`
`12. Exhibit 3 hereto is a true and correct copy of Literature Number
`
`SLVS171A for the TI’s datasheet titled “TPS5210 Programmable Synchronous-

`description
`
`The TPS5210 is a synchronous-buck regulator controller which provides an accurate, programmable supply
`voltage to microprocessors. An internal 5-bit DAC is used to program the output voltage to within a range of 1.3 V
`to 3.5 V. A hysteretic controller with user-selectable hysteresis and programmable droop compensation is used
`to dramatically reduce overshoot and undershoot caused by load transients. Propagation delay from the
`comparator inputs to the output drivers is less than 250 ns. Overcurrent shutdown and crossover protection for
`the output drivers combine to eliminate destructive faults in the output FETs. The softstart current source is
`proportional to the reference voltage, thereby eliminating variation of the softstart timing when changes are
`made to the output voltage. PWRGD monitors the output voltage and pulls the open-collector output low when
`the output drops 7% below the nominal output voltage. An overvoltage circuit disables the output drivers if the
`output voltage rises 15% above the nominal value. The inhibit pin can be used to control power sequencing.
`Inhibit and undervoltage lockout assures the 12-V supply voltage and system supply voltage (5 V or 3.3 V) are
`within proper operating limits before the controller starts. The output driver circuits include 2-A drivers with
`internal 8-V gate-voltage regulators. The high-side driver can be configured either as a ground-referenced
`driver or as a floating bootstrap driver. The TPS5210 is available in a 28-pin SOIC package and a 28-pin TSSOP
`PowerPAD package. It operates over a junction temperature range of 0°C to 125°C.

`
`
`detailed description
`
`VREF
`The reference/voltage identification (VID) section consists of a temperature-compensated bandgap reference
`and a 5-bit voltage selection network. The 5 VID terminals are inputs to the VID selection network and are
`TTL-compatible inputs internally pulled up to 5 V by a resistor divider connected to VCC. The VID codes conform
`to the Intel VRM 8.3 DC-DC Converter Specification for voltage settings between 1.8 V and 3.5 V, and they are
`decremented by 50 mV, down to 1.3 V, for the lower VID settings. Refer to Table 1 for the VID code settings.
`The output voltage of the VID network, VREF, is within ±1% of the nominal setting over the VID range of 1.3 V
`to 2.5 V, including a junction temperature range of 5°C to +125°C, and a VCC supply voltage range of 11.4 V
`to 12.6 V. The output of the reference/VID network is indirectly brought out through a buffer to the VREFB pin.
`The voltage on this pin will be within 2% of VREF. It is not recommended to drive loads with VREFB, other than
`setting the hysteresis of the hysteretic comparator, because the current drawn from VREFB sets the charging
`current for the slowstart capacitor. Refer to the slowstart section for additional information.
`
`hysteretic comparator
`
`The hysteretic comparator regulates the output voltage of the synchronous-buck converter. The hysteresis is
`set by 2 external resistors and is centered on VREF. The 2 external resistors form a resistor divider from VREFB
`to ANAGND, with the output voltage connecting to the VHYST pin. The hysteresis of the comparator will be equal
`to twice the voltage difference between the VREFB and VHYST pins. The propagation delay from the comparator
`inputs to the driver outputs is 250 ns (maximum). The maximum hysteresis setting is 60 mV.
`
`low-side driver
`
`The low-side driver is designed to drive low-Rds(on) n-channel MOSFETs. The current rating of the driver is
`2 A, source and sink. The bias to the low-side driver is internally connected to the DRV regulator.
`
`high-side driver
`
`The high-side driver is designed to drive low-Rds(on) n-channel MOSFETs. The current rating of the driver is
`2 A, source and sink. The high-side driver can be configured either as a ground-referenced driver or as a floating
`bootstrap driver. When configured as a floating driver, the bias voltage to the driver is developed from the DRV
`regulator. The internal bootstrap diode, connected between the DRV and BOOT pins, is a Schottky for improved
`drive efficiency. The maximum voltage that can be applied between BOOT and DRVGND is 30 V. The driver
`can be referenced to ground by connecting BOOTLO to DRVGND, and connecting BOOT to either DRV or VCC.
`deadtime control
`
`Deadtime control prevents shoot-through current from flowing through the main power FETs during switching
`transitions by actively controlling the turn-on times of the MOSFET drivers. The high-side driver is not allowed
`to turn on until the gate-drive voltage to the low-side FETs is below 2 V; the low-side driver is not allowed to turn
`on until the voltage at the junction of the high-side and low-side FETs (Vphase) is below 2 V.
`
`current sensing
`
`Current sensing is achieved by sampling and holding the voltage across the high-side power FETs while the
`high-side FETs are on. The sampling network consists of an internal 60-W
` switch and an external ceramic hold
`capacitor. Recommended value of the hold capacitor is between 0.033 m F and 0.1 m F. Internal logic controls
`the turn-on and turn-off of the sample/hold switch such that the switch does not turn on until the Vphase voltage
`transitions high, and the switch turns off when the input to the high-side driver goes low. The sampling will occur
`only when the high-side FETs are conducting current. The voltage on the IOUT pin equals 2 times the sensed
`high-side voltage. In applications where a higher accuracy in current sensing is required, a sense resistor can
`be placed in series with the high-side FETs, and the voltage across the sense resistor can be sampled by the
`current sensing circuit.

`detailed description (continued)
`
`droop compensation
`The droop compensation network reduces the load transient overshoot/undershoot on VO, relative to VREF. VO
`is programmed to a voltage greater than VREF by an external resistor divider from VO to VSENSE to reduce the
`undershoot on VO during a low-to-high load transient. The overshoot during a high-to-low load transient is
`reduced by subtracting the voltage on DROOP from VREF. The voltage on IOUT is divided with an external
`resistor divider, and connected to DROOP.
`
`inhibit
`
`INHIBIT is a TTL-compatible digital input used to enable the controller. When INHIBIT is low, the output drivers
`are low and the slowstart capacitor is discharged. When INHIBIT goes high, the short across the slowstart
`capacitor is released and normal converter operation begins. When the system-logic supply is connected to
`INHIBIT, it also controls power sequencing by locking out controller operation until the system-logic supply
`exceeds the input threshold voltage of the inhibit circuit. The 12-V supply and the system logic supply (either
`5 V or 3.3 V) must be above UVLO thresholds before the controller is allowed to start up. The start threshold
`is 2.1 V and the hysteresis is 100 mV for the INHIBIT comparator.
`VCC undervoltage lockout (UVLO)
`The undervoltage lockout circuit disables the controller while the VCC supply is below the 10-V start threshold
`during power up. When the controller is disabled, the output drivers will be low and the slowstart capacitor is
`discharged. When VCC exceeds the start threshold, the short across the slowstart capacitor is released and
`normal converter operation begins. There is a 2-V hysteresis in the undervoltage lockout circuit for noise
`immunity.
`
`slowstart
`The slowstart circuit controls the rate at which VO powers up. A capacitor is connected between SLOWST and
`ANAGND and is charged by an internal current source. The current source is proportional to the reference
`voltage, so that the charging rate of Cslowst is proportional to the reference voltage. By making the charging
`current proportional to VREF, the power-up time for VO will be independent of VREF. Thus, CSLOWST can remain
`the same value for all VID settings. The slowstart charging current is determined by the following equation:
`Islowstart = I(VREFB) / 5 (amps)
`Where I(VREFB) is the current flowing out of VREFB.
`It is recommended that no additional loads be connected to VREFB, other than the resistor divider for setting the
`hysteresis voltage. The maximum current that can be sourced by the VREFB circuit is 500 m A. The equation for
`setting the slowstart time is:
`tSLOWST = 5 × CSLOWST × RVREFB (seconds)
`Where RVREFB is the total external resistance from VREFB to ANAGND.
`power good
`The power-good circuit monitors for an undervoltage condition on VO. If VO is 7% below VREF, then the PWRGD
`pin is pulled low. PWRGD is an open-drain output.
`
`overvoltage protection
`The overvoltage protection (OVP) circuit monitors VO for an overvoltage condition. If VO is 15% above VREF,
`then a fault latch is set and both output drivers are turned off. The latch will remain set until VCC goes below the
`undervoltage lockout value. A 3-m s deglitch timer is included for noise immunity. Refer to the LODRV section
`for information on how to protect the microprocessor against overvoltages due to a shorted fault across the
`high-side power FET.

`
`overcurrent protection
`
`The overcurrent protection (OCP) circuit monitors the current through the high-side FET. The overcurrent
`threshold is adjustable with an external resistor divider between IOUT and ANAGND, with the divider voltage
`connected to the OCP pin. If the voltage on OCP exceeds 100 mV, then a fault latch is set and the output drivers
`are turned off. The latch will remain set until VCC goes below the undervoltage lockout value. A 3-m s deglitch
`timer is included for noise immunity. The OCP circuit is also designed to protect the high-side power FET against
`a short-to-ground fault on the terminal common to both power FETs.
`
`drive regulator
`
`The drive regulator provides drive voltage to the output drivers. The minimum drive voltage is 7 V. The minimum
`short circuit current is 100 mA. Connect a 1-m F ceramic capacitor from DRV to DRVGND.
`LODRV
`
`The LODRV circuit is designed to protect the microprocessor against overvoltages that can occur if the high-side
`power FETs become shorted. External components to sense an overvoltage condition are required to use this
`feature. When an overvoltage fault occurs, the low-side FETs are used as a crowbar. LODRV is pulled low and
`the low-side FET will be turned on, overriding all control signals inside the TPS5210 controller. The crowbar
`action will short the input supply to ground through the faulted high-side FETs and the low-side FETs. A fuse
`in series with Vin should be added to disconnect the short-circuit.
