TIDA-00946

5V 1A, Low EMI, 94% Efficiency DC/DC Module in Dual Layer TO-220 Form Factor Reference Design

TIDA-00946

Design files

Overview

This reference design demonstrates a 10.5-mm x 14.5-mm, 94% efficiency, low electromagnetic interference (EMI) DC/DC module with the TPS54202, replacing a low-dropout regulator (LDO) in major home appliance applications. High efficiency eliminates the need of heat sink for a smaller and cost-conscious solution. The higher current capability enables additional features to be added (WiFi, sensors and more). The high-efficiency and low-current consumption help achieve stringent energy ratings.

Features
  • 5-V regulated, up to 1-A output load
  • 94% efficiency
  • 1.6-μA standby current and 76-μA no load current
  • Small form factor: size and pin-compatible and smaller than TO-220 (10.5 mm x 14.5 mm)
  • Less than 35°C increase at full load, which eliminate the need of heat sink
  • Reduce the on-board DC/DC design complexity, save research and development time and efforts for switching power supply EMC design (quicker to market)
