PRODUCTION DATA.
The TPS82150 synchronous step-down converter MicroSiP™ power module is based on DCS-Control™ (Direct Control with Seamless transition into Power Save Mode). This is an advanced regulation topology that combines the advantages of hysteretic and voltage mode control.
The DCS-Control™ topology operates in PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) mode for medium to heavy load conditions and in PSM (Power Save Mode) at light load currents. In PWM mode, the converter operates with its nominal switching frequency of 2.0 MHz having a controlled frequency variation over the input voltage range. As the load current decreases, the converter enters Power Save Mode, reducing the switching frequency and minimizing the IC's quiescent current to achieve high efficiency over the entire load current range. DCS-Control™ supports both operation modes using a single building block and therefore has a seamless transition from PWM to PSM without effects on the output voltage. The TPS82150 offers excellent DC voltage regulation and load transient regulation, combined with low output voltage ripple, minimizing interference with RF circuits.
