TPS54620 Parallel Operation
John Tucker and Arvind Raj ...............................................................................................................
ABSTRACT
The TPS54620 is a synchronous, step-down, dc-dc converter with integrated high- and low-side FETs. It
is rated for a continuous output of 6 A. In order to increase the output current capability, it is possible to
operate two TPS54620 circuits in parallel. Certain techniques are required in the design to ensure that
each of the TPS54620 converters provides an equal share of the output current. This application report
details the design, operation, and performance of a parallel TPS54620 dc/dc converter.
