Texas Instruments LP8733xx/LP8733xx-Q1 Power Management ICs
Texas Instruments LP8733xx-Q1/LP8733xx-Q1 Power Management ICs (PMICs) are designed to meet the power management requirements in automotive applications. Each device has two step-down DC/DC converters which can be configured as a single dual-phase regulator or as two single-phase regulators and two linear regulators and general-purpose digital-output signals. Each device is controlled by an I2C-compatible serial interface and by an enable signal.The automatic PWM/PFM (AUTO mode) operation together with the automatic phase adding/shedding maximizes gives high efficiency over a wide output current range. The LP8733xx/LP8733xx-Q1 supports remote voltage sensing (differential in dual-phase configuration) to compensate IR drop between the regulator output and the point-of-load (POL). This improves the accuracy of the output voltage. The switching clock can also be forced to PWM mode and synchronized to an external clock to minimize the disturbances.
The Texas Instruments LP8733xx/LP8733xx-Q1 supports programmable start-up and shutdown delays and sequences including GPO signals synchronized to the enable signal. During start-up and voltage change, the device controls the output slew rate to minimize output voltage overshoot and the in-rush current. The LP8733xx-Q1 devices are AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications.
