The TPS6211x devices are a family of low-noise
synchronous step-down dc-dc converters that are
ideally suited for systems powered from a 2-cell Li-ion
battery or from a 12-V or 15-V rail.
The TPS6211x is a synchronous PWM converter with
integrated – and P-channel power MOSFET switches.
Synchronous rectification is used to increase efficiency and to reduce external component count. To
achieve highest efficiency over a wide load current
range, the converter enters a power-saving,
pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) mode at light load
currents. Operating frequency is typically 1 MHz,
allowing the use of small inductor and capacitor
values. The device can be synchronized to an external clock signal in the range of 0.8 MHz to 1.4 MHz.
For low noise operation, the converter can be
operated in PWM-only mode. In the shutdown mode,
the current consumption is reduced to less than 2 µA.
The TPS6211x is available in the 16-pin (RSA) QFN
package, and operates over a free-air temperature
range of –40 ° C to 85 ° C.

This device contains circuits to protect its inputs and outputs against damage due to high static voltages
or electrostatic fields. These circuits have been qualified to protect this device against electrostatic
discharges; HBM according to EIA/JESD22-A114-B, MM according EIA/JESD22-A115-A, and CDM
according EIA/JESD22C101C; however, it is advised that precautions be taken to avoid application of
any voltage higher than maximum-rated voltages to these high-impedance circuits. During storage or
handling the device leads should be shorted together or the device should be placed in conductive foam.
In a circuit, unused inputs should always be connected to an appropriate logic voltage level, preferably
either VCC or ground. Specific guidelines for handling devices of this type are contained in the
publication Guidelines for Handling Electrostatic-Discharge-Sensitive (ESDS) Devices and Assemblies
available from Texas Instruments.

I/O DESCRIPTION
Enable. A logic high enables the converter; logic low forces the device into shutdown mode reducing the
supply current to less than 2 µA.
Feedback pin for the fixed output voltage option. For the adjustable version, an external resistive divider
is connected to this pin. The internal voltage divider is disabled for the adjustable version.
Connect the inductor to this pin. This pin is the switch pin and connected to the drain of the internal
power MOSFETS.
Power good comparator output. This is an open-drain output. A pullup resistor should be connected
the nominal value.
external clock signal with CMOS level:
SYNC = HIGH: Low-noise mode enabled, fixed frequency PWM operation is forced
SYNC = LOW (GND): Power save mode enabled, PFM/PWM Mode enabled
