amplitude of the ringing depends to a large degree on
parasitic effects, it is best to choose these component
values based on actual measurements of any design
layout. See literature number SLUP100 for more detailed
information on snubber design.
SNUBBER CIRCUIT
R4 and C11 of the application schematic in Figure 24
comprise a snubber circuit. The snubber is included to
reduce over-shoot and ringing on the phase node when the
internal high-side FET turns on. Since the frequency and

Figure 25. 3.3-V Power Supply With Schottky Diode
Figure 25 shows an application where a clamp diode is
used in place of the low-side FET. The TPS54350
incorporates an integrated pull-down FET so that the
circuit remains operating in continuous mode during light
load operation. A 3-A, 40-V Schottky diode such as the
Motorola MBRS340T3 or equivalent is recommended.
