The TPS60312DGSR is a high-efficiency, low-ripple, dual-output, switched-capacitor voltage converter produced by Texas Instruments. This advanced power management integrated circuit (IC) is designed to provide a solution for products requiring multiple power levels derived from a single power source, particularly those operating on battery power.
Key Features
- Input Voltage Range: The device operates with an input voltage range of 0.9V to 1.8V, making it ideal for single-cell alkaline or NiCd/NiMH applications, or as a post-regulator for other power sources.
- Dual Output Voltages: It delivers two regulated voltages, 3.3V and either -1.5V or -1.8V (selectable), which are typically required for powering both digital and analog circuits in a system.
- High Efficiency: The TPS60312DGSR provides high efficiency over a wide range of load currents, thanks to its switched-capacitor voltage doubling and inverting technology.
- Low Output Voltage Ripple: The device ensures a low output voltage ripple, which is crucial for sensitive RF and analog circuits.
- Power-Save Mode: It features a power-save mode that reduces quiescent current and maintains high efficiency at low output currents.
- Compact Package: The TPS60312DGSR comes in a compact MSOP-10 package, which is suitable for space-constrained applications.
