FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The TPS54526 is an adaptive on-time D-CAP2™
mode synchronous buck converter. The TPS54526
enables system designers to complete the suite of
various end equipment’s power bus regulators with a
cost effective, low component count, low standby
current solution. The main control loop for the
TPS54526 uses the D-CAP2™ mode control which
provides a very fast transient response with no
external compensation components. The adaptive on-
time control supports seamless transition between
PWM mode at higher load conditions and Eco-
mode™ operation at light loads. Eco-mode™ allows
the TPS54526 to maintain high efficiency during
lighter load conditions. The TPS54526 also has a
proprietary circuit that enables the device to adopt to
both low equivalent series resistance (ESR) output
capacitors, such as POSCAP, SP-CAP, and ultra-low
ESR ceramic capacitors. The device operates from
4.5-V to 18-V VIN input. The output voltage can be
programmed between 0.76V and 5.5V. The device
also features an adjustable soft start time and a
power good function. The TPS54526 is available in
the 14-pin HTSSOP package and the 16 pin QFN
package, designed to operate from –40°C to 85°C.
