Selection Guide

Choose the TPS548B28 when you need a complete 20A point-of-load buck in a single small package with remote sense for server, storage, or networking boards, and your input rail is 4V to 16V (or 2.7V-16V with external bias). Choose a controller plus discrete power stage such as the TPS53355 (30A, split-rail input) if you need more than 20A or parallel operation - the TPS548B28 does not support paralleling per TI. Choose multi-rail PMBus devices such as TPS53624 when sequencing and telemetry are required. For lower-current rails, simpler bucks like TPS54620 suffice. Verify hiccup-mode fault behavior matches your reliability requirements before finalizing.

Key Differentiators

  • Differential remote sense for ±1% load-point accuracy (vs TPS53622RSBT)
  • Integrated 7.7 mΩ / 2.4 mΩ MOSFETs (vs TPS53355)
  • Internal 3V LDO with external bias override (vs TPS548B28EVM-023 reference configuration)

Design Notes

Keep the input capacitor to VIN/GND loop as small as possible; the 20A pulsed currents in this loop dominate EMI. Per the TI datasheet layout section, place ceramic input capacitors directly at the VIN pins and use the PowerVFQFN thermal pad with a multi-layer via array to the ground plane for heat spreading.

Conduction losses are roughly I^2 x (RDSon_HS x D + RDSon_LS x (1-D)); with 7.7 mΩ and 2.4 mΩ MOSFETs, duty cycle strongly affects thermals. At 12V-to-1V, 20A designs, evaluate switching loss and consider Skip-mode only at light load, since FCCM improves transient response for processor cores.

Do not attempt to parallel multiple TPS548B28 outputs - per TI E2E forum, the device does not support paralleling; for higher current use a controller such as TPS53355. The 4V minimum input applies without external bias; below 4V, supply a 3.13V-3.6V bias to extend operation down to 2.7V.
