Overview

The TPS63060 is a high-efficiency buck-boost converter designed for applications powered by multi-cell alkaline, NiCd, NiMH, or lithium-ion batteries. It maintains a stable output voltage between 2.5V and 8V even as the input voltage fluctuates from 2.5V to 12V, ensuring seamless transition between step-down and step-up modes.

Why Choose This Part

The device features a unique buck-boost overlap control that ensures a smooth transition between modes without output glitches. Its 2.4 MHz switching frequency allows for the use of small inductors and capacitors, while the 30 uA quiescent current and power save mode maximize efficiency at light loads.

Applications

Dual-Cell Li-Ion Systems
Provides a regulated output voltage from a battery pack that ranges from roughly 6V to 8.4V.
Portable Industrial Devices
Supports 12V rail stabilization and wide-input range battery operation in rugged handhelds.
Medical Diagnostic Equipment
Utilizes the high efficiency and power save mode for extended battery runtime in portable monitors.
High-Power LED Drivers
Delivers constant voltage for lighting applications across a wide range of battery discharge states.
