Product Overview

The TPS65266 is a Texas Instruments triple synchronous step-down converter for Power_Management designs. It operates from a recommended 2.7 to 6.5 V input range and integrates three buck channels rated for 3 A / 2 A / 2 A maximum continuous output current on buck1 / buck2 / buck3. Output regulation is based on a 0.6 V ±1% feedback reference, with feedback voltage specified from 0.594 V to 0.606 V under the listed 25°C, VIN = 5 V, 1 MHz test condition.

Clocking is adjustable from 250 kHz to 2.4 MHz through the ROSC-programmable oscillator. The device includes VIN undervoltage lockout thresholds, enable-pin thresholds and pullup currents, soft-start charging current on SS1/SS2/SS3, peak and low-side current limits for the buck channels, PGOOD feedback thresholds, and overcurrent hiccup timing.

The package is a 32-pin VQFN (RHB) with a 5.00 mm x 5.00 mm nominal body. Assembly-related external component facts include 47 nF bootstrap capacitors from BSTx to LXx, a 1 µF VINQ bypass capacitor near the pin, and suggested 10 µF ceramic input capacitors for VIN1, VIN2, and VIN3.
