I've been looking to get back into the portable wii world again, and after my first failed attempt a few months ago, I've taken time to learn about the basics of electricity, the parts that use it, and how things work. I'm still no where even close to perfect, nobody is, I'm only 15.
But I'm looking at the wii power supply options, and I know not to cheap out, but I just managed to save up for a PC so money is scarce until I find another job. So the PTH08080WAH, it's a good option, (but not the best I've heard), and I've been comparing some other IC's to the PTH module, and the TPS6213x looks like a decent alternative. Now, I'm looking at the datasheet and here are some comparisons:
Efficiency curves: very similar, but the TPS seems to be slightly less efficient
PTH has 2.25A output, and the TPS has a 3A output
4.5-18V input on the PTH, compared to 3-17V on the TPS
0.9-5.5V output, and 0.9-6V output
the PTH a lot more expensive than the TPS
But the TPS needs a PCB and hot air solder gun unless you want to order pre-assembled from JLC which at the time of this post, they have in stock
I don't have a good enough skillset to understand some of the specs, but the two PMICs look very similar and I'm wondering if the TPS could be used as a wii supply. I'm asking for somebodies help who has a better understanding of this than me
