TPSM265R1: Can Two of these be employed to effectively double current output?

Part Number: TPSM265R1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LMZM23601

The design I'm working on requires just over the 100mA output of this device. If it is possible you employ two to effectively double the current output it may be the optimal solution for my design...

  • Hi Daniel,

    How much higher are you operating your application above 100mA?

    I would suggest picking a different power module that is rated for the output current in your application. Though it is possible to parallel to of these devices for theoretical higher output current, the two devices may not be equally sharing current. Because of this, it is possible for one branch of the parallel circuit to hit current limit before the other. As such I don't recommend paralleling this particular device since it does not have the "ISHARE feature"

    If you need a higher output current device but lower input voltage, perhaps the LMZM23601 device might suffice.

    Regards,

    Jimmy
