Hello!
To what extent TPS6214x family devices can be used as "LDO replacement" as it is declared on page 1 of its datasheet?
P.S. Does a 1.2V fixed voltage version of TPS6214x exist?

The statement about "LDO replacement" means that it is available in fixed and adjustable output, has minimal external components, and is "easy to use". There are no external compensation components to calculate. No 1.2 V fixed available at this time.
As well, this and other DCS-Control devices have very good noise performance as expected of an LDO. Look at the PSRR graphs in figure 27 and 28.
Using a switching regulator, like the TPS6214x, instead of an LDO provides much higher efficiency while keeping a small solution size and simple design.
Chris, thank You for confirmation!
To continue considering TPS6214x as a LDO-like, would You please provide any information about TPS6214x 's output voltage noise.
The D/S has a few graphs and you are welcome to evaluate the EVM to get any data that you want: http://www.ti.com/tool/tps62140evm-505
