4 Operation
This section provides information about the operation of the TPS740xxDGK EVM and expected outputs.
The TPS740xx parts can support input voltages (V
IN
) between 1.2 V and 5.5 V and output voltages (V
OUT
)
between 0.9 V and 4 V. A separate V
BIAS
input supply (3 V to 5.5 V) powers the error amplifier, reference,
and internal control circuits to allow for very low main input supply voltage. The TPS740xx requires only a
small output ceramic capacitor of 2.2 µF (minimum) to ensure stability of the IC.
4.1 Adjustable Output Voltage
TPS74001DGK EVM comes configured for a 1.5-V output voltage. However, this output voltage can easily
be modified to range between 0.9 V and 4 V by changing the values of the resistors R
1
and R
2
that form a
voltage divider at the output of the IC. In order to achieve maximum accuracy, R
2
is recommended to be
lower than 4.99 kΩ. Proper values for R
1
and R
2
for a desired V
OUT
can be calculated using:

Sample resistor values of common output voltages are shown in Table 2.
