For simplicity, the efficiency of the buck regulators is assumed to be 80% for the operating conditions listed in Table 2-1, while the efficiency of the LDO is given by Equation 1:
Equation 2, which calculates the input power of a converter as a function of the output power and efficiency, is used to calculate the system and Buck 1 output currents.
Table 2-2 shows the load capability of each regulator compared to the requirements of the camera module. The TPS650330-Q1 device is capable of supplying the system power with plenty of margin to account for variations between typical and maximum current variation.
REGULATOR | OUTPUT VOLTAGE (V) | MAXIMUM CURRENT (mA) | REQUIRED CURRENT (mA) |
---|---|---|---|
Buck 1 | 3.8 | 1500 | 341 |
Buck 2 | 1.8 | 1200 | 237 |
Buck 3 | 1.1 | 1200 | 383 |
LDO |
3.3 |
300 | 79 |
After determining that the TPS650330-Q1 device is suitable based on the power requirements, the external components can be chosen quickly based on the data sheet recommendations, simplifying the design process. These recommendations are shown in Figure 2-9 and Table 2-3.
