PRODUCTION DATA
A selectable spread-spectrum option (TPS55160-Q1 and TPS55165-Q1) helps reduce radiated electromagnetic interference (EMI). Internal loop compensation eliminates the need for external compensation components. In low-power mode (TPS55160-Q1 and TPS55165-Q1), the device achieves a quiescent current of less than 15 µA which allows an automotive electronic control unit (ECU) to stay in standby mode (for example, listen-to-CAN mode) while achieving OEM quiescent-current requirements. The low-power mode can be disabled which forces the converter to operate in full continuous mode at a fixed switching frequency of 2 MHz (typical) for the entire load-current range. The maximum average current in the inductor is limited to a typical value of 2 A.
The converter can be disabled to minimize battery drain. Furthermore, the device offers a power-good (PG) pin to indicate when the output rail is less than the specified tolerance. The device also has a power-latch function to allow an external microcontroller unit (MCU) to keep the output voltage available for as long as needed.
The device is available in a 20-pin HTSSOP PowerPAD package.
