TI offers a variety of camera Power
Management Integrated Circuits (PMICs) with three buck converters and one low-noise
LDO designed to support many automotive vision applications. These applications
include but are not limited to:
- Rear-View
- Surround-View
- Driver Monitoring
- Cabin Monitoring
- Mirror Replacement
- Autonomous Driving
- Remote Front-View
- Digital Video Recorder (DVR)
As shown in the
Powering Multiple Image Sensors with the Same Power
Management IC application note, different image sensors can have
different supply voltage requirements. The TPS65033000-Q1 features programmable
Non-Volatile Memory (NVM), allowing system designers to meet these and other varying
requirements of different camera systems with a single PMIC. The device NVMs have
several safeguards against unintended changes in the final application, and are
pre-programmed with default settings designed for mass production programming.
