It operates from a 2.3 V to 5.5 V input range with adjustable output from 2.5 V to 5.5 V, achieving up to 96 percent efficiency. The 2 MHz switching frequency minimizes inductor and capacitor size. Features include programmable soft-start, power-save mode for light-load efficiency, input voltage supervisor with adjustable threshold, load disconnect during shutdown, output over-voltage protection, and a power-good output indicator.","working_principle":"The TPS61230DRC uses a quasi-constant on-time valley current mode control scheme. During the on-time, the low-side N-channel MOSFET switch connects the inductor to ground, causing inductor current to ramp up. When the peak current threshold is reached, the switch turns off and the high-side P-channel synchronous rectifier turns on, transferring energy to the output. The valley current mode control regulates the inductor valley current, providing fast transient response and stable operation with low-ESR ceramic output capacitors. At light loads, the device enters power-save mode (PSM), skipping switching cycles to maintain regulation while dramatically reducing switching losses and quiescent current. The adjustable input voltage supervisor monitors VIN and disables switching when the input drops below the programmed threshold, preventing deep battery discharge. The programmable soft-start controls the inrush current by gradually increasing the current limit during startup. The power-good (PG) output indicates when the output voltage is within regulation. The load disconnect feature opens the output path during shutdown, preventing current flow from input to output.","pin_description":"<table><tr><th>Pin<\/th><th>Name<\/th><th>Description<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>1<\/td><td>EN<\/td><td>Enable input; high = active, low = shutdown with load disconnect<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2<\/td><td>VIN<\/td><td>Input supply (2.3 V to 5.5 V); connect 10 uF ceramic capacitor to GND<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>3<\/td><td>IN+<\/td><td>Input voltage supervisor threshold; connect resistor divider from VIN<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>4<\/td><td>SS<\/td><td>Soft-start programming; connect capacitor to GND to set startup ramp time<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>5<\/td><td>PG<\/td><td>Power-good output; open-drain, high impedance when VOUT is in regulation<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>6<\/td><td>VOUT<\/td><td>Boost converter output; connect output inductor and output capacitor<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>7<\/td><td>FB<\/td><td>Feedback input; connect resistor divider from VOUT to set output voltage<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>8<\/td><td>SW<\/td><td>Switch node; connect to boost inductor (1.0 to 2.2 uH recommended)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>9<\/td><td>GND<\/td><td>Power ground; connect to PCB ground plane<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>10<\/td><td>AGND<\/td><td>Analog ground; connect to PCB ground plane<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>EP<\/td><td>GND<\/td><td>Exposed thermal pad; solder to PCB ground plane for thermal management<\/td><\/tr><\/table>","application_scenarios":"<ul><li><strong>Battery-Powered USB OTG<\/strong>: Boosting single-cell Li-ion (3.0-4.2 V) to 5 V for USB On-The-Go host power<\/li><li><strong>Portable Medical Devices<\/strong>: Generating 5 V rail from 3.3 V battery supply for sensor and display power<\/li><li><strong>White LED Backlight<\/strong>: Powering LED strings from a single Li-ion cell in portable displays<\/li><li><strong>3.3 V to 5 V Level Shifting<\/strong>: Providing 5 V I\/O supply for mixed-voltage microcontroller systems<\/li><li><strong>Super-Capacitor Charger<\/strong>: Boosting battery voltage to charge super-capacitors for backup power systems<\/li><\/ul>","alternative_models":"<table><tr><th>Model<\/th><th>Manufacturer<\/th><th>Switch<\/th><th>Iout<\/th><th>Efficiency<\/th><th>Package<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>TPS61231DRCT<\/td><td>Texas Instruments<\/td><td>5 A<\/td><td>2.1 A<\/td><td>96%<\/td><td>VSON-10<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LTC3426<\/td><td>Analog Devices<\/td><td>3 A<\/td><td>1.5 A<\/td><td>95%<\/td><td>DFN-10<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>MAX17017<\/td><td>Maxim\/ADI<\/td><td>4 A<\/td><td>1.8 A<\/td><td>95%<\/td><td>TQFN-16<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>SY7106<\/td><td>Silergy<\/td><td>5 A<\/td><td>2 A<\/td><td>95%<\/td><td>QFN-12<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>BD8386EFV-M<\/td><td>Rohm<\/td><td>4.5 A<\/td><td>1.5 A<\/td><td>93%<\/td><td>HTSSOP-16<\/td><\/tr><\/table>\n<p>TPS61230DRC is a 5A synchronous boost converter from TI in VSON-10 (3x3mm) with 96% efficiency and 2MHz switching.
