Conclusion

TI offers high performance, simple to layout step-down converters with an I2C interface, easing trade-off considerations between design flexibility and higher power density. Having more integrated features, through the I2C interface, reduces the number of external components, lowering the system BOM cost and pin count. A more flexible design can address more rails within a system and therefore lower development efforts by providing a greater pricing advantage due to the economies of scale.
