DESCRIPTION
With/Without Out-of-Audio™ Mode Selectable
Light-Load and PWM-Only Operation
The TPS51123A is a cost effective, dual-synchronous
buck controller targeted for notebook system power
supply solutions. It provides 5-V and 3.3-V LDOs and
requires few external components. The TPS51123A
supports high-efficiency, fast transient responses and
provides a combined power-good signal. Out-of-
Audio™ mode light-load operation enables low
acoustic noise at much higher efficiency than
conventional forced PWM operation. Adaptive on-
time D-CAP™ control provides convenient and
efficient operation. The part operates with supply
input voltages ranging from 5.5 V to 28 V and
supports output voltages from 2 V to 5.5 V. The
TPS51123A is available in a 24-pin QFN package
and is specified from -40°C to 85°C ambient
temperature range.
