Hi,
I am considering using the TPS92640 (or the TPS92641 if I need better PWM performance) for a high power led application.
How can I calculate the total power dissipation in the IC given Vin, Vout, fsw and data for the FETs?

The power dissipation in the IC can be closely approximated by using the following:
1. Quiescent current dissipation: P(Q) = IQ * Vin
2. VCC current dissipation: P(VCC) = I(VCC) * Vin
4. I(VCC) = 2 * Qg(total) * fsw (the factor of 2 assumes the same FET for both high and low side, otherwise calcluate I(VCC) for each and add them)
3. P(total) = P(Q) + P(VCC)
Those are the majority losses in the IC, there will be some additional but they will be a small percentage of those above.
