11.11 Parallel Operation

Up to six TPS84A20 devices can be paralleled for increased output current. Multiple connections must be made between the paralleled devices and the component selection is slightly different than for a stand-alone TPS84A20 device. Figure 26 shows a typical TPS84A20 parallel schematic. Refer to the TPS84A20 Parallel Operation Application Note for information and design help when paralleling multiple TPS84A20 devices.
