TPS63000

Hi,



I have been prototyping a TI TPS63000 Buck-Boost converter and have set up a circuit as per the datasheet but I am finding that the quiescent current with no load is about 2.5mA with a 4V input and a 3.6V output where the datasheet states that it should be < 50uA. Has anyone else had any experience with these particular devices?



Here is a link to the datasheet for anyone interested...

Sorry, not familiar with that one. You might look at the Enable and make sure it's driven completely to the rail. Buck/Boost regulators sometimes pull extra juice when not fully enabled (or disabled).

Good luck.

Thanks anyway but I have it all sorted now. I ended up bringing out the old etching tank and making a PCB so I could easily play with the EN and PS/SYNC pins. It turns out that the PS/SYNC pin needs to be low to achieve the advertised
