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. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The TPS54361 device is a 60-V, 3.5-A, step-down regulator with an integrated high-side MOSFET. This device is
typically used to convert a higher DC voltage to a lower DC voltage with a maximum available output current of
3.5 A. Example applications are: 12 V, 24 V, and 48 V industrial, automotive, and communications power
systems. Use the following design procedure to select component values for the TPS54361 device. This
procedure illustrates the design of a high-frequency switching regulator using ceramic output capacitors.
Calculations can be done with the excel spreadsheet (SLVC452) located on the product page. Alternately, use
the WEBENCH® software to generate a complete design. The WEBENCH software uses an interactive design
procedure and accesses a comprehensive database of components when generating a design. This section
presents a simplified discussion of the design process.
