Wide Vin, four-switch buck-boost DC/DC offers efficiency with reduced EMI
LM5175 can, says TI, deliver high-performance designs for industrial and automotive applications such as industrial PCs, USB power delivery, in-vehicle wireless charging, LED lighting, electric vehicles, battery charging and telecom RF power amplifiers.
The DC/DC controller addresses a wide variety of buck, boost, and buck-boost applications from output power of a few watts to greater than 100W using a single device. A proprietary switching scheme maximises efficiency in the buck-boost transition region and uses a single inductor to further reduce board space. The LM5175’s robust gate drive (2A at 7.5 V) enables wide VIN MOSFETs to switch faster and more efficiently. Optional hiccup-mode short-circuit protection prevents thermal runaway during extended load current faults, reducing thermal stress by up to 30%.
Features include;
- Synchronous buck or boost controller meets the needs of a wide range of buck-boost DC/DC converter applications.
- 42-VIN operation with 60-VIN absolute max withstands wide voltage transients.
- Single inductor design reduces board space and simplifies layout.
- Optional input or output average current limiting addresses applications requiring a regulated current from the input supply or to the load.
LM5175 is priced at $4.25 (1,000).
