Product Overview

The TPS5420 is a Texas Instruments Power_Management IC configured as a step-down buck converter. It operates from a recommended 5.5 to 36 V input range and provides an adjustable output voltage down to 1.22 V. The device is specified for up to 2 A continuous output current and 3 A peak output current, with up to 95% efficiency enabled by the integrated MOSFET switch.

Electrical operation is centered on a nominal 500 kHz switching frequency, with a 400 to 600 kHz specified range over -40 °C to 125 °C junction temperature and 5.5 to 36 V input. Feedback voltage is specified at 1.221 V typical, with temperature-qualified limits, and the converter includes an internal 8 ms typical slow-start function.

The TPS5420 is supplied in a D SOIC-8 package measuring 4.9 mm x 6 mm. Pin-level implementation includes a 0.01 µF low-ESR bootstrap capacitor from BOOT to PH and an ENA pin with an internal 1.5 MΩ pullup resistor. The ENA function starts switching above 1.3 V and stops switching below 0.5 V.
