TPS62227

The TPS6222x devices are a family of high-efficiency, synchronous step-down converters ideally suited for portable systems powered by 1-cell Li-Ion or 3-cell NiMH/NiCd batteries. The TPS6222x is also suitable to operate from a standard 3.3-V or 5-V voltage rail.

With an output voltage range of 6 V down to 0.7 V and up to 400-mA output current, the TPS6222x is ideal for powering the low voltage TMS320™ DSP family and processors used in PDAs, pocket PCs,and smart phones. Under nominal load current, the devices operate with a fixed switching frequency of typically 1.25 MHz. At light load currents, the part enters the power-save mode operation; the switching frequency is reduced and the quiescent current is typically only 15 A; therefore, the TPS6222x achieves the highest efficiency over the entire load current range. The TPS6222x needs only three small external components. Together with the tiny TSOT23 package, a minimum system solution size can be achieved. An advanced fast response voltage mode control scheme achieves superior line and load rceagpualcaittioorns. with small ceramic input and output capacitors.
