Conclusion

The TPS629210-Q1 can be configured as an inverting buck boost converter to generate a negative output voltage. 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 is provided.
