TPS631010 High-Efficiency Buck-Boost Converter

Texas Instruments' converter provides a power-supply solution for pre-regulators and voltage stabilizers in a small wafer chip scale package

Image of Texas Instruments' TPS631010 Buck-Boost ConverterTexas Instruments' TPS631010 is a constant frequency peak current mode control buck-boost converter in a tiny wafer chip scale package. The converter has a 3 A peak current limit (typical), an input voltage range of 1.6 V to 5.5 V, and provides a power-supply solution for system pre-regulators and voltage stabilizers. Depending on the input voltage, the TPS631010 automatically operates in boost, buck, or 3-cycle buck-boost mode when the input voltage is approximately equal to the output voltage.

The transitions between modes happen at a defined duty cycle and avoid unwanted toggling within the modes to reduce output voltage ripple. The quiescent current of 8 μA and power-save-mode power enable very high efficiency for light to no-load conditions. The device offers a very small solution size in a WCSP package.
