6 Conclusion

Even if the TPS62125 can be configured as an inverting buck-boost converter to generate a negative output voltage. But we don't recommend TPS62125 for inverting buck-boost applications. The detailed explanation is in section 1.1 Section 1.1. The inverting buck-boost topology changes some system characteristics, such as input voltage range and maximum output current. This application report explains the inverting buck-boost topology and how to select the external components with the changed system characteristics. Measured data from the example design are provided.
