I'm trying to build a boost converter based on a TI application note regarding the TPS43000 chip (Application Report SLUA268, "2.5-V to 5.0-V, 600-kHz High Efficiency Synchronous Boost Converter..."). On page 7, that document shows a printed circuit board layout for the boost converter. I'd like to find a Gerber file for the board, or better yet, perhaps just buy a pre-made board from somebody. I just spoke with a TI customer service rep on the phone, but the rep said he cannot find any mention of the board anywhere except in the application note, and that if a Gerber file or board were available through TI, there would be a link on the TI web site. There is no such link, and yet the image of the PC board in the application note even shows what appears to be a TI part reference number: "PMP144 _ REV B" dated 1-09-02.
Does anyone on this forum have access to a Gerber file, the actual printed circuit boards, or any helpful information to share?
Thanks,
Eric
