Notes

  • Pin diagram confirms pin numbering: SW occupies pins 1, 2, 3 (left side); PGND, PGND, VOS, EN occupy pins 16, 15, 14, 13 (top right); FB, AGND, FSW, DEF occupy pins 5, 6, 7, 8 (bottom left); PVIN, AVIN, SS/TR occupy pins 11, 10, 9 (right side); PG occupies pin 4 (left side).
  • Pins 1, 2, 3 are all labeled SW and connect to the same internal switch node.
  • Pins 11, 12 are both PVIN and should be connected to the same supply source.
  • Pins 15, 16 are both PGND and should be connected to the same ground plane.
  • FSW and DEF pins have internal pulldown resistors; floating pins default to logic low.
  • Exposed thermal pad is electrically connected to AGND and PGND; soldering is mandatory for thermal and mechanical performance.

Typical Application

The TPS62140 is a switched mode step-down converter, able to convert a 3-V to 17-V input voltage into a 0.9-V to 6-V output voltage, providing up to 2 A. It needs a minimum amount of external components. Apart from the LC output filter and the input capacitor, only the TPS62140 (TPS62140A) with an adjustable output voltage needs an additional resistive divider to set the output voltage level.
