Design Notes
Place input and output capacitors close to the module pins to minimize parasitic inductance. Use a 10µF ceramic capacitor on the input and a 22µF ceramic capacitor on the output as recommended in the datasheet. Ensure a solid ground plane for optimal thermal and EMI performance.
The TPSM828303's QFN package with MagPack™ technology provides good thermal performance. For high current operation, ensure adequate copper area on the PCB to dissipate heat. The thermal pad should be connected to a large ground plane to improve heat spreading.
Do not exceed the maximum input voltage of 5.5V. Ensure the feedback resistors are 1% tolerance to maintain output voltage accuracy. The enable pin must be pulled high for operation; do not leave it floating. Also, verify the power good signal timing for proper system sequencing.
Compliance Information
RoHS compliant per TI product page. Not AEC-Q100 qualified; use TPSM828303A-Q1 for automotive.
