1 Introduction

This user's guide contains background information for the TPS54233 as well as support documentation for 
the TPS54233EVM-373 evaluation module (HPA373). Also included are the performance specifications, the 
schematic, and the bill of materials for the TPS54233EVM-373.

1.1 Background

The TPS54233 dc/dc converter is designed to provide up to a 2 A output from an input voltage source of 3.5 
V to 28 V. Rated input voltage and output current range for the evaluation module are given in 

Table 1-1

This evaluation module is designed to demonstrate the small printed-circuit-board areas that may be achieved 
when designing with the TPS54233 regulator. The switching frequency is internally set at a nominal 300 kHz. 
The high-side MOSFET is incorporated inside the TPS54233 package along with the gate drive circuitry. The 
low drain-to-source on resistance of the MOSFET allows the TPS54233 to achieve high efficiencies and helps 
keep the junction temperature low at high output currents. The compensation components are external to the 
integrated circuit (IC), and an external divider allows for an adjustable output voltage. Additionally, the TPS54233 
provides adjustable slow start and undervoltage lockout inputs. The absolute maximum input voltage is 30 V for 
the TPS54233EVM-373.
