Input Voltage Range: 4.5 V to 18 V
The TPS536C7B1 is a step-down controller with
dual channels, built-in non-volatile memory (NVM),
and PMBus interface, and is fully compatible with
TI NexFET™ smart power stages. Advanced control
features such as the D-CAP+ architecture provide
fast transient response, low output capacitance, and
good current sharing. The device also provides
a novel phase interleaving strategy and flexible
firing order. Adjustable control of output voltage
slew rate and adaptive voltage positioning are
also supported. In addition, the device supports
the PMBus communication interface for reporting
telemetry of voltage, current, power, temperature, and
fault conditions to the system host. All programmable
parameters can be configured by the PMBus
interface, and can be stored in NVM as the new
default values to minimize the external component
count.
Output Voltage Range: 0.25 V to 5.5 V
Per-phase switching frequency range: 300 kHz to
2000 kHz
Dual Output Supporting N+M Phase
