TPS60201DGS

The TPS60201DGS from Texas Instruments is a low-power DC/DC converter featuring a charge pump topology. It provides a regulated 3.3V output voltage with a maximum output current of 100mA, suitable for applications requiring stable power from a variable input.

Key electrical characteristics include a wide input voltage range from 1.8V to 3.6V, a low quiescent current of 35µA, and an efficiency of up to 90%. The device boasts a low output voltage ripple of less than 5mV (PP), achieved through its push-pull topology. It also includes integrated features like a low-battery detector and a power-good indicator, enhancing system reliability.

Designed for ease of use, this charge pump converter does not require inductors, contributing to a low-cost and low-EMI power supply solution. It offers reliable system shutdown with output capacitor discharge when disabled and a shutdown current of 0.05µA. The switching frequency can be synchronized to an external clock signal.

The TPS60201DGS is housed in a compact 10-pin VSSOP package, measuring 3 mm x 4.9 mm. It is surface-mount compatible and requires only four external capacitors for operation, making it an ideal choice for space-constrained designs.
