Low-voltage power management unit claims fastest start-up time for instant-on automotive applications
The TPS659119-Q1 is optimized to work with TI’s automotive OMAP processors, including the DRA6x family (codenamed ‘Jacinto’) of infotainment processors, and other ARM Cortex-A offerings. In addition, the TPS659119-Q1 is factory-programmed and has customizable power-up and power-down sequencing based on the customer’s processor of choice and system power needs.
The TPS659119-Q1 has three efficient step-down DC/DC converters; two with dynamic voltage scaling and one for input/output (I/O) power.
The device has a control signal that enables one external buck controller for external FETs to support a high current rail when necessary.
With eight low dropout (LDO) voltage regulators and one real-time clock (RTC) LDO, the TPS659119-Q1 provides flexible output power to serve multiple processors. The TPS659119-Q1 is optimized for TI’s automotive OMAP processors, including the DRA6x family of infotainment processors.
The TPS659119-Q1 evaluation module (EVM) is available to speed the evaluation of the TPS659119-Q1. Priced at $99.00, the evaluation module is available upon request at www.ti.com/tps659119evm-pr
