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

Description

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 load94% efficiency1.6-μA standby current and 76-μA no load currentSmall 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 sinkReduce the on-board DC/DC design complexity: save research and development time and efforts for switching power supply EMC design (quicker to market)
