DESCRIPTION
As a member of the SWIFT family of dc/dc regulators,
the TPS5420 is a high-output-current PWM converter
that integrates a low-resistance high-side N-channel
MOSFET. Included on the substrate with the listed
features is a high-performance voltage error amplifier
that provides tight voltage regulation accuracy under
transient conditions, an undervoltage-lockout circuit to
prevent start-up until the input voltage reaches 5.5 V,
an internally set slow-start circuit to limit inrush
currents, and a voltage feed-forward circuit to
improve the transient response. Using the ENA pin,
shutdown supply current is reduced to 18 µA
typically. Other features include an active-high
enable, overcurrent limiting, overvoltage protection,
and thermal shutdown. To reduce design complexity
and external component count, the TPS5420
feedback loop is internally compensated.
The TPS5420 device is available in an easy-to-use
8-pin SOIC package. TI provides evaluation modules
and the SWIFT Designer software tool to aid in
quickly achieving high-performance power supply
designs to meet aggressive equipment development
cycles.
