DESCRIPTION
The TPS54550 is a medium output current
synchronous buck PWM converter with an integrated
high side MOSFET and a gate driver for an low side
external MOSFET. Features include a high
performance voltage error amplifier that enables
maximum performance under transient conditions
and flexibility in choosing the output filter inductors
and capacitors. The TPS54550 has an
under-voltage-lockout circuit to prevent start-up until
the input voltage reaches 4.5 V; a slow-start circuit to
limit in-rush currents; and a power good output to
indicate valid output conditions. The synchronization
feature is configurable as either an input or an output
for easy 180° out of phase synchronization.
The TPS54550 device is available in a thermally
enhanced 16-pin TSSOP (PWP) PowerPAD™
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.
