TPS7H4010-SEP

The TPS7H4010-SEP is a radiation-tolerant synchronous buck converter capable of outputting up to 6A of load current from a supply voltage ranging from 3.5V to 32V. The TPS7H4010-SEP provides exceptional efficiency and output accuracy in a very small size. Peak current-mode control is employed.

Additional features such as adjustable switching frequency, synchronization to an external clock, FPWM option, power-good flag, precision enable, adjustable soft start, and tracking provide both flexible and easy-to-use designs for a wide range of applications. Automatic frequency foldback at light load and optional external bias improve efficiency over the entire load range. The device requires few external components and has a pinout designed for simple PCB layout with optimized EMI and thermal performance. Protection features include thermal shutdown, input undervoltage lockout, cycle-by-cycle current limiting, and hiccup short-circuit protection.
