9 Application and Implementation
Note
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification,
and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for
determining suitability of components for their purposes, as well as validating and testing their design
implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
The TPS7H500x-SEP series is a family of radiation-hardened current mode PWM controllers that can be utilized
for designing space-grade DC-DC converters. Each device should be paired with external gate drivers in order to
provide control of the power semiconductor device(s) of the converter power stage. By allowing for switching
frequencies up to 2 MHz, the controllers provide many advantages for GaN power semiconductor based
designs. The TPS7H500x-SEP family can be used for the design of a number of common DC-DC converter
topologies, including but not limited to: buck, flyback, forward, active-clamp forward, push-pull, and full-bridge.

9.2.1 Design Requirements
The example provided here is to demonstrate how to design a synchronous push-pull converter using GaN
power semiconductor devices. This design example is to show how to determine the component selection for the
TPS7H5005-SEP as well as key components of the converter power stage.
