1 Introduction
This user's guide contains background information for the TPS54519 as well as support documentation for
the TPS54519EVM-037 evaluation module (also called PWR037). Also included are the performance
specifications, the schematic, and the bill of materials for the TPS54519EVM-037.
1.1 Background
The TPS54519 dc/dc converter is designed to provide up to a 5-A output from an input voltage source of
2.95 V to 6 V. Rated input voltage and output current range for the evaluation module are given in
Table 1. This evaluation module is designed to demonstrate the small, printed-circuit-board areas that can
be achieved when designing with the TPS54519 regulator. The switching frequency is externally set at a
nominal 1000 kHz. The high-side and low-side MOSFETs are incorporated inside the TPS54519 package
along with the gate drive circuitry. The low, drain-to-source on-resistance of the MOSFETs allows the
TPS54519 to achieve high efficiencies and helps keep the junction temperature low at high output
currents. The compensation components are external to the integrated circuit (IC), and an external divider
allows for an adjustable output voltage. Additionally, the TPS54519 provides adjustable slow start and
undervoltage lockout inputs. The absolute maximum input voltage is 7 V for the TPS54519EVM-037.
