Test Setup and Results
2.2 Efficiency
The efficiency of this EVM peaks at a load current of about 0.5 A – 1 A and then decreases as the load
current increases towards full load. Figure 1 shows the efficiency for the TPS54519EVM-037 at an
ambient temperature of 25°C.
Figure 1. TPS54519EVM-037 Efficiency
Figure 2 shows the efficiency for the TPS54519EVM-037 at lower output currents between 0.02 A and
0.20 A at an ambient temperature of 25°C.
Figure 2. TPS54519EVM-037 Low Current Efficiency
The efficiency may be lower at higher ambient temperatures, due to temperature variation in the
drain-to-source resistance of the internal MOSFET.
