NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
The TPS659119-Q1 device is an integrated power-management integrated circuit (PMIC) that comes in an 80-pin, 0.5-mm pitch, LQFP package with thermal pad. This device was designed specifically for automotive applications and is dedicated to designs powered from a 5-V input supply that require multiple power rails. The device provides three step-down converters along with an interface to control an external converter and eight LDO regulators. The device can support a variety of different processors and applications. Two of the step-down converters support dynamic voltage scaling through a dedicated I2C interface to provide optimum power savings. The third converter provides power for the I/Os and memory in the system.
In addition to the power resources, the device contains an embedded power controller (EPC) to manage the power sequencing requirements of systems. The power sequencing is programmable through EEPROM. The device also contains nine configurable GPIOs, a real-time clock module, an internal watchdog circuit, and two LED ON and OFF signal generators.
Details on how to use this device in automotive applications are described throughout this device specification. The following sections provide the typical application use-case with the recommended external components and layout guidelines.
Following the typical application schematic (see Figure 25) and the list of recommended external components will allow the TPS659119-Q1 device to achieve accurate and stable regulation with the step-down converters and LDO regulators. These devices are internally compensated and have been designed to operate most effectively with the component values listed in Table 91. Deviating from these values is possible but is not recommended.
For this design example, use the parameters listed in Table 91.

All step-down converter inputs require an input decoupling capacitor to minimize input ripple voltage. Using a 10-V, 10-µF capacitor for each step-down converter input is recommended. Depending on the input voltage of the step-down converter, a 6.3-V or 10-V capacitor can be used.
For optimal performance, the input capacitors should be placed as close to the step-down converter-input pins as possible. See the Layout Guidelines section for more information about component placement.
All step-down converter outputs require an output capacitor to hold up the output voltage during a load step or a change to the input voltage. To ensure stability across the entire switching frequency range, the TPS659119-Q1 device requires an output capacitance value between 4 µF and 12 µF. To meet this requirement across temperature and DC bias voltage, using a 10-µF capacitor for each step-down converter is recommended.
Again, to ensure stability across the entire switching frequency range, TI recommends to use a 2.2-µH inductor on each step-down converter. Because the maximum DC current for each step-down converter is 1.5-A, selecting an inductor with a saturation current of at least 2.3-A is important.
All LDO inputs require an input decoupling capacitor to minimize input ripple voltage. Using a 10-V, 4.7-µF capacitor on each LDO input voltage supply (VCC3, VCC4, VCC5, and VCC6) is recommended. Depending on the input voltage of the LDO, a 6.3-V or 10-V capacitor can be used.
For optimal performance, the LDO input capacitors should be placed as close as possible to the LDO input pins. See the Layout Guidelines section for more information about component placement.
All LDO outputs require an output capacitor to hold up the voltage during a load step or changes to the input voltage. Using a 6-V, 2.2-µF capacitor is recommended for each LDO.
The VCC7 pin is the input supply for VRTC as well as the analog references of the device. This pin requires a 4.7-µF decoupling capacitor.
