Chapter 1 Introduction The TPS5210EVM-116 (SLVP116) Synchronous-Buck Converter VRM Evaluation Module provides a method for evaluating the performance of a synchronous buck converter using the TPS5210 ripple regulator controller designed to meet or exceed the Intel VRM8.3 dc-dc converter electrical and mechanical specifications.
Parasitic interconnect impedances between the power supply and the processor must be kept to a minimum. Fast responding synchronous buck DC/DC converters controlled by the Texas Instruments TPS5210 hysteretic controller are ideally suited for microprocessor power applications requiring fast response and precise regulation to rapidly changing loads.
