The TPS546B24A is a highly integrated, synchronous step-down DC/DC converter. This device is used to convert a higher DC-input voltage to a lower DC-output voltage, with a maximum output current of for a single device. Use the following design procedures to select key component values for single phase. The appropriate behavioral options can be set through PMBus.
