TPS82140SILT

DC DC Converters

A DC to DC converter is a device that is designed to convert direct current (DC) electrical power from one voltage to another. It is also known as a DC-to-DC power supply, voltage converter, or a DC-to-DC regulator. There are two main types of DC-to-DC converters: linear and switch-mode.

TPS82140SILT Application Field and Working Principle

The TPS82140SILT is a DC-to-DC converter that is ideal for use in multi-voltage applications. It is capable of providing up to a maximum of 2A of current. The TPS82140SILT is suitable for use in a wide range of applications, such as automotive, consumer, and industrial electronics.

The TPS82140SILT is a buck converter with an internal 50mΩ N-Channel MOSFET. The switching frequency is internally set to 1.2MHz and can be synchronized to an external clock. The TPS82140SILT has an input voltage range of 7V to 18V and an adjustable output voltage range of 0.6V to 3.3V. It also offers protection features such as undervoltage lockout, overcurrent protection, and thermal shutdown.

In buck converter mode, the TPS82140SILT can convert a higher input voltage to a lower output voltage. It does this by switching an internal MOSFET on and off at a high frequency. This produces a square waveform at the output, which is then filtered to produce a much lower, more regulated voltage.

The switching frequency of the TPS82140SILT can be adjusted to optimize the efficiency of the DC-to-DC converter. In addition, the output voltage can be changed using an external resistor divider. The TPS82140SILT also has a low quiescent current and low ripple, making it ideal for low-power applications.

Overall, the TPS82140SILT is a highly efficient and feature-rich DC-to-DC converter that is suitable for use in a variety of applications. It has an adjustable output voltage range and adjustable switching frequency, making it suitable for a number of solutions. Thanks to its high efficiency and low ripple, it is perfect for low-power applications.
