High-efficiency 2A step-down converter optimized for compact designs

Mouser now stocks the Texas Instruments (TI) TPS82084, a high-efficiency 2A step-down converter MicroSiP module optimized for small solution size and high efficiency for applications such as battery-powered products, solid state drives, processor supplies and mobile phones. The power module integrates a synchronous step-down converter and an inductor to simplify design, reduce external components and save PCB area. The low profile and compact solution is suitable for automated assembly by standard surface mount equipment. To maximize efficiency, the converter operates in PWM mode with a nominal switching frequency of 2.4MHz. It automatically enters Power Save Mode operation at light load currents. In Power Save Mode, the device operates with typically 17µA quiescent current. Using the DCS-Control topology, the device achieves excellent load transient performance and accurate output voltage regulation.
