series introduction

# TPS60121PWP Product Series Introduction

## Overview
The TPS60121PWP is a highly regarded product series within the realm of power management integrated circuits (PMICs) developed by Texas Instruments. This series is specifically engineered to address the power conversion and voltage regulation needs in a wide range of electronic applications, offering a reliable and efficient solution for designers.

## Key Features

### High - Efficiency Boost Converter
At the core of the TPS60121PWP is a high - efficiency boost converter. It can efficiently step up a low input voltage to a higher output voltage, making it ideal for applications where the available power source has a lower voltage level than required by the load. For example, in battery - powered devices, it can take the relatively low voltage from a single - cell or multi - cell battery and convert it to a voltage suitable for powering other components such as microcontrollers, sensors, or display modules. The high efficiency of the converter helps to minimize power losses, which in turn extends the battery life of portable devices.

### Wide Input and Output Voltage Range
The TPS60121PWP supports a wide input voltage range. This flexibility allows it to be used with various power sources, including different types of batteries (such as alkaline, lithium - ion, or nickel - metal hydride) and other low - voltage power supplies. The output voltage can also be adjusted within a certain range, enabling designers to tailor the power supply to the specific requirements of their application. This wide range of voltage support makes the TPS60121PWP a versatile choice for different electronic systems.

### Low Quiescent Current
One of the notable features of this product series is its low quiescent current. Quiescent current refers to the current consumed by the device when it is in a standby or idle state. A low quiescent current is crucial for battery - powered applications, as it helps to conserve battery energy when the device is not actively performing its main functions. The TPS60121PWP's low quiescent current ensures that the power consumption is minimized during periods of inactivity, further enhancing the overall energy efficiency of the system.

### Small Form Factor
The TPS60121PWP is available in a small form - factor package. This is particularly beneficial for applications where space is limited, such as in portable electronics, wearables, and IoT devices. The compact size allows for easy integration onto printed circuit boards (PCBs), enabling designers to create more compact and lightweight products without sacrificing performance.

### Over - Current and Over - Temperature Protection
To ensure the reliability and safety of the system, the TPS60121PWP is equipped with over - current and over - temperature protection features. Over - current protection prevents excessive current from flowing through the device, which could otherwise damage the components or cause a short - circuit. Over - temperature protection monitors the temperature of the device and shuts it down if the temperature exceeds a safe operating limit. These protection mechanisms help to safeguard the TPS60121PWP and the connected components from potential damage, increasing the overall lifespan of the system.

## Applications

### Portable Electronics
In portable devices such as smartphones, tablets, and portable media players, the TPS60121PWP can be used to boost the battery voltage to power various internal components. For example, it can provide the necessary voltage for the display backlight, which requires a higher voltage than the battery can typically supply directly. Its high efficiency and low quiescent current are especially valuable in these applications, as they help to extend the battery life and improve the overall user experience.

### Wearable Devices
Wearable devices, such as smartwatches and fitness trackers, have strict size and power consumption requirements. The
