Summary

The Texas Instruments TPS7H4010-SEP is a synchronous step-down DC/DC converter that is capable of driving a load current of up to 6A from a supply voltage that can range from 3.5 to 32 V.

The TPS7H4010-SEP is designed to be easy to use and to provide a high level of efficiency and output accuracy in a small size. It has a pinout designed for a simple PCB layout that includes optimal thermal and EMI performance.

Peak current-mode control is employed as standard and additional features are available for enhanced versatility including; power-good flag, external clock synchronization, FPWM, and adjustable switching frequency.

In order to improve efficiency over the entire operational load range, the converter includes optional external bias and automatic frequency foldback at light loads.

Few external components are required and the system includes a variety of protective features including input undervoltage lockout, hiccup short-circuit protection, thermal shutdown, and cycle-by-cycle current limiting.
