3 Description

The TPS54525 is an adaptive on-time D-CAP2™

mode synchronous buck converter. The TPS54525

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 TPS54525 uses the D-CAP2™ mode control

which provides a very fast transient response with no

external compensation components. The TPS54525

also has a proprietary circuit that enables the device

to adopt to both low equivalent series resistance

(ESR) output capacitors, such as POSCAP or SPCAP,

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 0.76 V

and 5.5 V. The device also features an adjustable soft

start time and a power good function. The TPS54525

is available in the 14-pin HTSSOP package, and

designed to operate from –40°C to 85°C.
