TPS40131 Overview
Description
The TPS40131 is a two-phase synchronous buck controller that is optimized for low-output voltage, high-output current applications powered from a supply between 1 V and 40 V. A multi-phase converter offers several advantages over a single power stage including lower current ripple on the input and output capacitors, faster transient response to load steps, improved power handling capabilities, and higher system efficiency.
Key Features
- Supports 5-V Output
- Two-Phase Interleaved Operation
- Operates With Pre-Biased Outputs
- 1-V to 40-V Power Stage Operation Range
- Requires VIN5 @ 50 mA (typ) Depending on External MOSFETs and Switching Frequency
- 10-μA Shutdown Current
- Programmable Switching Frequency up to 1 MHz/Phase
- Current Mode Control with Forced Current Sharing
- Better than 1% Internal 0.7-V Reference
- Resistive Divider Sets Direct Output Over Voltage Threshold
