VIN (Pin 1): Function: Supplies input power to the device. Voltage Range: 0.8V to 5.5V. Usage: Connect to a regulated voltage source that is within this range. GND (Pin 2): Function: Ground connection. Usage: Connect to the common ground of your circuit. This is a critical pin for the proper operation of the converter. VOUT (Pin 3): Function: Provides the output voltage. Usage: This pin is connected to the load for power distribution. The output voltage is regulated according to the feedback mechanism. FB (Pin 4): Function: Feedback pin to regulate output voltage. Usage: A resistive divider should be connected to this pin to set the desired output voltage. It helps in monitoring the output and ensuring it is within the desired range. EN (Pin 5): Function: Enables or disables the device based on the input signal. Usage: A high voltage (typically greater than 1.2V) enables the device, while a low voltage (typically below 0.4V) disables the device. LX (Pin 6): Function: Inductor connection pin. Usage: Connects to the inductor in the switching power supply setup. It carries the inductor's current and is critical for the operation of the buck converter.Circuit Principle:
The TPS62200 is a low input voltage (0.8V) buck converter, designed for efficient conversion in low-voltage applications. The circuit works by taking the input voltage (VIN), converting it to a high-frequency switching signal, and then using an inductor (connected to the LX pin) to store and release energy, thereby reducing the voltage to the desired output (VOUT).
The feedback loop is managed via the FB pin, where an external resistor network senses the output voltage and adjusts the switching mechanism to maintain a stable and regulated output. The enable (EN) pin controls whether the device is active or shut off, and the GND pin serves as the reference point for the entire system.
