Introduction
The TPS6269x devices are a series of high-frequency, synchronous, step-down dc-dc converters
optimized for battery-powered portable applications. Intended for low-power applications, the TPS6269x
can support up to 600-mA load current and allows the use of low-cost chip inductors and capacitors. The
TPS62691 and TPS62690 have fixed output voltages of 2.2 V and 2.85 V respectively. The TPS6269x
operates at a regulated 4-MHz switching frequency and enters a power-save mode operation under light
load currents in order to maintain high efficiency over the entire load-current range. A PFM mode extends
the battery life by reducing the quiescent current to 19 μA (typical) during light load operation.

Connector and Test Point Descriptions
3.1
Input/Output Connectors: TPS6269xEVM
3.1.1
J1 – VIN
This header is the positive connection to the input power supply. The power supply must be connected
between J1 (VIN) and J3 (GND). The leads to the input supply must be twisted and kept as short as
possible. The input voltage must be between 2.3 V and 4.8 V.
3.1.2
J2 – S+/S–
J2 S+/S– are the sense connections for the input of the converter. Connect a voltmeter, sense connection
of a power supply, or oscilloscope to this header.
3.1.3
J3 – GND
This header is the return connection to the input power supply. Connect the power supply between J3
(GND) and J1 (VIN). The leads to the input supply must be twisted and kept as short as possible.
3.1.4

J7
J7 S+/S– are the sense connections for the output of the converter. Connect a voltmeter, sense
connection of an electronic load, or oscilloscope to this header.
3.1.8
J8
J8 is the return connection of the converter. A load can be connected between J8 and J6 (VOUT).
3.2
3.2.1
Jumpers and Switches
JP1 – ENABLE
This jumper enables/disables the converter on the EVM. Placing a shorting jumper between ENABLE and
ON turns on the converter. Placing a shorting jumper between ENABLE and OFF disables the converter.
3.2.2
JP2 – MODE
This jumper enables/disables the power-saving mode under light loads. Placing a shorting jumper
between MODE and PWM disables the power-saving mode. If the power-save mode is disabled, the
converter operates in forced PWM mode over the entire load current range.
Placing a shorting jumper between MODE and PSM enables the power-saving mode. This causes the
device to operate in power-saving mode under light loads and in PWM mode in heavy loads. See the
specific device data sheet for detailed information.
3.2.3
JP3 and LP1
This is the inductor current loop. In order to measure the inductor current, the trace on JP3 needs to be
cut and a wire needs to be placed between the two ends of LP1. If the loop is no longer needed, remove
the wire on LP1 and shorting JP3.
The trace on JP3 is closed
and LP1 is left open.
The trace on JP3 is cut and
a wire is installed on LP1.

TPS62690/1/2/3EVM Assembly Drawing and Layout
Figure 10 through Figure 14 show the design of the TPS62690/1/2/3EVM-076 printed-circuit boards
(PCB). The EVM has been designed using a two-layer, 1-ounce copper-clad PCB with all components in
an active area on the top side of the board. Moving components to both sides of the PCB or using
additional internal layers can offer additional size reduction for space-constrained systems.
NOTE: Board layouts are not to scale. These figures show how the board is laid out; they are not
intended to be used for manufacturing TPS62690/1/2/3EVM-076 PCBs. Note the connection
of the TPS6269x feedback (FB) pin. It is recommended that the FB pin be connected directly
to the inductor, not directly on the VOUT connection of the output capacitor. The connection
to the inductor provides better transient response performance.

or other TI intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license from TI to use such products or services or a
warranty or endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual
property of the third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is accompanied
by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. Reproduction of this information with alteration is an unfair and deceptive
business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional
restrictions.
Resale of TI products or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service voids all
express and any implied warranties for the associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not
responsible or liable for any such statements.
TI products are not authorized for use in safety-critical applications (such as life support) where a failure of the TI product would reasonably
be expected to cause severe personal injury or death, unless officers of the parties have executed an agreement specifically governing
such use. Buyers represent that they have all necessary expertise in the safety and regulatory ramifications of their applications, and
acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning their products
and any use of TI products in such safety-critical applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be
provided by TI. Further, Buyers must fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of TI products in
such safety-critical applications.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments unless the TI products are
specifically designated by TI as military-grade or "enhanced plastic." Only products designated by TI as military-grade meet military
specifications. Buyers acknowledge and agree that any such use of TI products which TI has not designated as military-grade is solely at
the Buyer's risk, and that they are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in automotive applications or environments unless the specific TI products are
designated by TI as compliant with ISO/TS 16949 requirements. Buyers acknowledge and agree that, if they use any non-designated
products in automotive applications, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet such requirements.
