Typical Application

The TPS61021A is a synchronous boost converter designed to operate from an input voltage supply range between 0.5 V and 4.4 V with 3-A valley switch current limit. The TPS61021A typically operates at a quasiconstant 2-MHz frequency pulse width modulation (PWM) at moderate to heavy load currents when the input voltage is above 1.5 V. The switching frequency changes to 1-MHz gradually with the input voltage changing from 1.5 V to 1 V to get better efficiency and high step-up ratio. At light load currents, the TPS61021A converter operates in power-save mode with pulse frequency modulation (PFM) to achieve high efficiency over the entire load current range.
