DESCRIPTION
D
D
Four Independent 100-mA Channels
Programmable Over 4-Wire Serial Port
The TPS54900 four-channel step-down converter uses
voltage mode PWM control to provide four
independently programmable output voltages. Each
regulated channel includes a high-side PMOSFET
Converter Regulation Range:
7.5 V to 13.1 V in 400-mV Steps, Plus
Unregulated Pass-Through Mode to Shunt VIN
to any Output
switch with a typical r
of 0.8 Ω, which makes it
DS(ON)
suitable for high efficiency, low current applications.
Commands sent to the TPS54900 over the four-wire
serial port programs the outputs independently or
globally to supply voltages from 7.5 V to 13.1 V in 0.4-V
increments. When the input voltage is desired at an
output, a bypass mode can be activated which fully
enhances the PMOSFET switch and disables the
switching circuitry of the selected channel.

The TPS54900 is an ideal companion device to power
THS7102 ADSL line drivers as a part of the AC5 central
office ADSL chipset. With the AC5 chipset controlling
the TPS54900 output voltages, significant power
savings are realized by reducing the excess supply
headroom on a per line basis.
