Introduction
The Texas Instruments TPS63060 is a highly efficient, single-inductor, internally compensated, buck-boost
converter in a 10-pin, 3-mm × 3-mm SON package. Both fixed and adjustable output voltage units are
available.
1.1
Background
The TPS63060EVM-619 uses the TPS63060 adjustable-output voltage version of the integrated circuit
(IC) and is set to a 5-V output. The fixed-output version(s) can be evaluated on this EVM with minor
modification as stated in section titled, Fixed Output Operation. The EVM operates with an input voltage
between 2.5 V and 12 V.
1.2
Performance Specification
Table 1 provides a summary of the TPS63060EVM-619 performance specifications. All specifications are
given for an ambient temperature of 25°C.

Modifications
The printed-circuit board (PCB) for this EVM is designed to accommodate both the fixed and adjustable
versions of this IC. If the fixed version is installed, R1 is replaced with a 0-Ω resistor and R2 is open. Extra
positions are available for additional input and output capacitors.
1.3.1
Adjustable-Output IC U1 Operation
U1 is configured for evaluation of the adjustable-output version. This unit is set to 5 V. Resistors R1 and
R2 can be used to set the output voltage between 2.5 V and 8 V. See the data sheet for recommended
values.
1.3.2
Fixed-Output Operation
U1 can be replaced with the fixed version for evaluation. With the fixed version, R1 needs to be replaced
with a 0-Ω resistor; R2 position is open.

2.1.7
J7 – PG GND
Power Good (PG) test point and GND connection.
2.1.8
JP1 – ENABLE
Shorting jumper between the center pin and ON turns on the unit. Installing a shorting jumper between the
center pin and OFF turns the unit off.
2.1.9
JP2 –PWR Save
Installing a shorting jumper between the center pin and OFF disables the power-saving mode; the jumper
between the center pin and ON enables automatic transition to power-saving mode at light-load currents
as described in the data sheet. The center pin can be used to synchronize the unit with an external clock;
see the data sheet for additional details.
2.2
Setup
To operate the EVM, connect an input supply with the positive lead to J1 and negative lead to J3; connect
a load with the positive lead to J4 and the negative lead to J6; short EN to ON (pins 1 and 2) of JP1 with a
shorting jumper.
2.3
Power Up
The soft-start circuit is controlled by a ramp to the current-limit comparator that starts the switch current
limit low and increases to maximum value. Output voltage is monitored during this time and must increase
for the switch current to increase. The following data was taken with a 13-Ω load under multiple VIN
conditions.

2.4
Output Ripple
Output ripple occurs at the switching frequency of 2.4 MHz, and with the recommended L and output C, is
of low amplitude. The amplitude of the ripple varies, depending on load current and input voltage. Ensure
that the oscilloscope probe is connected as close as possible to the output capacitor, with a short ground
lead, for accurate measurements. Impedance in trace and probe lead add to output ripple, and ground
loop length increases the amplitude of switching spikes. The following dataset was taken with a 250-mA
load over multiple input voltages.

Power Dissipation
With high efficiency, the power to be dissipated is low. Also, the QFN package with a thermal relief pad is
very efficient at removing heat. Care must be taken, however, to not overheat the device.
2.6
Load Transients
Load transient response is well regulated. Additional output capacitance reduces voltage overshoot and
undershoot.
