1 Background
The TPS65261 PMIC is a triple 3-A, 2-A, 2-A output current, synchronous step-down (buck) converter with an
operational range of 4.5 V to 18 V. The TPS65261 features an automatic power sequence with connecting
MODE pin to V7V and configuring EN1/2/3 pins. The device also features an open drain RESET signal to
monitor power down. The TPS65261 operates in pulse skipping mode (PSM) light load.
As there are many possible options to set the converters, Table 1-1 presents the performance specification
summary for the EVM.
Table 1-1. Summary of Performance
Test Conditions
Performance
VIN = 4.5 V to 18 V
fSW = 600 kHz
(25°C ambient)
BUCK1, 1.2 V, up to 3 A
BUCK2, 3.3 V, up to 2 A
BUCK3, 1.8 V, up to 2 A
RESET, pull low when VDIV lower than 1.23 V
This evaluation module is designed to provide access to the features of the TPS65261. Some modifications
can be made to this module to test performance at different input and output voltages, current and switching
frequency. Contact the TI Field Applications group for advice on these matters.
