Inverting Power Supply

The TPS6215x device can be used as an inverting power supply by rearranging external circuitry as shown in Figure 9-40. As the former GND node now represents a voltage level below system ground, the voltage difference between VIN and VOUT must be limited for operation to the maximum supply voltage of 17 V (see Equation 16).

The transfer function of the inverting power supply configuration differs from the buck-mode transfer function, additionally incorporating a right half-plane zero. The loop stability must be adapted, and an output capacitance of at least 22 µF is recommended. A detailed design example is given in the Using the TPS6215x in an Inverting Buck-Boost Topology Application Report.
