tps40210 SWITCHER design?

VIN 10-18 votls  2 AMP 33 volt output.

 

Switcher specs Qty 2-SI4896 FET's.  Why are 2 necessary?

  • Hi Fred,

    I have tried to change the quantity of SI4896DY to 1 but got a warning message saying that "High-side mosFet junction temperature is greater than 125˚C! This is based on TI standards for board layout. Additional heat sinking and forced air may be used to reduce junction temperatures." I have contacted the team working on SwitcherPro and they found out there is a bug for junction temperature calculation. They will correct it. Thank you very much for your feedback!

  • Hi Fred,

    The Rds,on of SI4896DY in the database has higher value, which leads to error for the junction temperature calculation. This will be corrected in July release.
