The efficiency of this EVM peaks at a load current of about 2 A and then decreases as the load current increases towards full load. Figure 2-1 shows the efficiency for the TPS54620EVM-374 at an ambient temperature of 25°C.

Figure 2-1 TPS54620EVM-374 Efficiency

Figure 2-2 shows the efficiency for the TPS54620EVM-374 at lower output currents below 0.10 A at an ambient temperature of 25°C.

Figure 2-2 TPS54620EVM-374 Low Current Efficiency

The efficiency may be lower at higher ambient temperatures, due to temperature variation in the drain-to-source resistance of the internal MOSFET.
