TPS56221 High-Current SWIFT™

Texas Instruments' TPS56221 is a high-efficiency and high-current synchronous buck converter designed to operate from a supply between 4.5 V and 14 V. The device is capable of producing an output voltage as low as 0.6 V at loads up to 25 A. Integrated NexFET™ Power MOSFETs provide a small footprint and ease of use. The device implements a voltage-mode control with voltage feed-forward compensation that responds instantly to input voltage change. The device offers design flexibility with a variety of user programmable functions, including soft-start, overcurrent protection (OCP) levels, and loop compensation. OCP levels are programmed by a single external resistor connected from the ILIM pin to the circuit ground.
