JAJSKY0B June 2019 – July 2024 TPS99001-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The TPS99001-Q1 switches a relatively high amount of current via the switching regulator which generates the voltages used by the DMD.
The DMD regulator consists of the following pins of the TPS99001-Q1:
PIN | NAME | PEAK BOARD CURRENT |
---|---|---|
49 | DMD_VOFFSET | 800mA |
50 | DMD_VBIAS | 800mA |
51 | DMD_VRESET | 800mA |
52 | DRST_LS_IND | 800mA |
53 | DRST_PGND | 800mA |
54 | DRST_HS_IND | 800mA |
55 | VIN_DRST | 800mA |
56 | VSS_DRST | 800mA |
The value of 800mA for these pins relates to the peak current through the inductor due to the nature of the switching regulator architecture. The DC for these paths will be closer to the load current drawn by the DMD.
In addition to these high current signals that are driven by the TPS99001-Q1, the LED driver electronics will likely have other circuits that handle the high currents required by the LEDs. These currents may be as high as 6A and therefore also requires special consideration by the layout engineer. As a guide for the PCB trace width requirements, the reader is referred to TI’s Application Note (SLUA366). The PCB trace widths used in TI’s design were:
SIGNAL GROUP | PCB TRACE WIDTH |
---|---|
DMD Regulator | 10 mils |
