FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The TPS54526 is an adaptive on-time D-CAP2™
23
D-CAP2™ Mode Enables Fast Transient
mode synchronous buck converter. The TPS54526
Response
enables system designers to complete the suite of

IN
Input Voltage Range: 4.5 V to 18 V
TPS54526 uses the D-CAP2™ mode control which
Output Voltage Range: 0.76 V to 5.5 V
provides a very fast transient response with no
Highly Efficient Integrated FET’s Optimized
external compensation components. The adaptive on-
for Lower Duty Cycle Applications
time control supports seamless transition between
63 m (High Side) and 33 m (Low Side)
PWM mode at higher load conditions and Eco-
mode™ operation at light loads. Eco-mode™ allows
High Efficiency, less than 10 μA at shutdown
the TPS54526 to maintain high efficiency during
High Initial Bandgap Reference Accuracy
lighter load conditions. The TPS54526 also has a
Adjustable Soft Start
proprietary circuit that enables the device to adopt to
both low equivalent series resistance (ESR) output
