Figure 22. External Current Shunt Resistor
Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum
The TPS43332-Q1 features a frequency-hopping pseudo-random spectrum-spreading architecture. On this
device, whenever the SYNC pin is high, the internal oscillator frequency varies from one cycle to the next within
a band of ±5% around the value programmed by the resistor at the RT pin. The implementation uses a linear-
feedback shift register that changes the frequency of the internal oscillator based on a digital code. The shift
register is long enough to make the hops pseudo-random in nature and has a design such that the frequency
shifts only by one step at each cycle to avoid large jumps in the buck and boost switching frequencies.
