3.2 Efficiency

Figure 3-1 through Figure 3-5 shows the efficiency for the TPSM843B22EVM. Using the selection jumpers for U1, the results for different output voltage and switching frequency combinations are included. The test points listed in Table 3-3 are used for the efficiency measurement. Use these test points to minimize the contribution of PCB parasitic power loss to the measured power loss.
