DESCRIPTION

The TPS54233-Q1 is a 28 V, 2 A non-synchronous

buck converter that integrates a low RDS(on) high side

MOSFET. To increase efficiency at light loads, a

pulse skipping Eco-mode™ feature is automatically

activated. Furthermore, the 1 μA shutdown supply

current allows the device to be used in battery

powered applications. Current mode control with

internal slope compensation simplifies the external

compensation calculations and reduces component

count while allowing the use of ceramic output

capacitors. A resistor divider programs the Hysteresis

of the input under-voltage lockout. An overvoltage

transient protection circuit limits voltage overshoots

during startup and transient conditions. A cycle by

cycle current limit scheme, frequency fold back and

thermal shutdown protect the device and the load in

the event of an overload condition. The TPS54233-

Q1 is available in an 8-pin SOIC package that has

been internally optimized to improve thermal

performance.
