Texas Instruments Introduces Inductor-les= s Step-Down Charge Pumps for High Efficiency, Ease of Use in Battery-Operat= ed Systems=1DDevices Offer Industry Leading Output Current Drive of 250mA = DALLAS, Nov 19, 2001 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- A new family of step-down = charge pumps from Texas Instruments (NYSE: TXN) (TI) brings power efficienc= y and ease of use to battery-operated systems and PC peripherals. With its = high output drive and built-in protection features, the new charge pumps of= fer savings in board space and system cost. Being the first step-down, or "= buck", charge pumps introduced by TI, the new family of devices extends TI'= s comprehensive portfolio of power-supply solutions for low-voltage applica= tions including personal digital assistants and Internet audio players. (Se= e power.ti.com/aap7037u ). The new TPS6050x step-down charge pumps offer = regulated output voltages ranging from 0.8 to 3.3 volts (V) in order to pow= er low-voltage components in portable and bus-powered systems. The charge p= umps take an input voltage range from 1.8V to 6.5V, enabling use with a var= iety of battery types. Additionally, a low quiescent current of only 40 mic= roamps (uA) allows for longer standby times. At 250 mA, the family provides= the highest output current in the industry and is capable of supporting mu= ltiple components within a system. Finally, with the TPS6050x, only four sm= all ceramic capacitors are required to build a complete high-efficiency cha= rge pump power converter, thereby saving board space and cost. "With the = introduction of step-down charge pumps, TI expands its existing line of lin= ear regulators and inductive step-down converters offering a more complete = selection of voltage regulator solutions," said Guenter Sporer, systems eng= ineering manager for Low Power DC-DC Converter Products at TI. "With low-vo= ltage applications becoming more specialized, customers know that they can = rely on TI for power supply solutions that meet their system requirements."= Efficiency and Ease of Use The TPS6050x step-down charge pumps offer o= perating efficiencies comparable to inductive buck converters, yet with the= ease of use that is customary with linear regulators. Peak efficiencies of= 90 percent are achieved by utilizing a fractional conversion topology resu= lting in lower power dissipation and eliminating the need for heat sinking.= Supporting system flexibility, the devices can be powered by three or four= nickel-cadmium (NiCad), nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH) or alkaline batteries,= or by a single lithium-ion (Li-ion) cell. Requiring few external capacit= ors and no inductors, TPS6050x charge pumps simplify design and allow for a= complete converter to be built in only 0.155 square inches (in2). To preve= nt current leakage and prolong battery life, the load is isolated from the = battery during shutdown. Added protection features include a soft start to = limit in-rush current, a Power Good output voltage supervisor, over-tempera= ture and over-current protection. Available Today The TPS6050x step-dow= n charge pumps are now available in a 10-pin MSOP package from TI and TI au= thorized distributors. Suggested resale pricing is $1.35 each in quantities= of 1,000. An evaluation module (EVM) is available today to help simplify s= ystem design and speed time to market. Regulated output voltages for the TP= S6050x devices are as follows: TPS60500 Adjustable 0.8V to 3.3 V T= PS60501 Fixed 3.3 V TPS60502 Fixed 1.8 V TPS60503 Fixed 1.5= V Texas Instruments Incorporated is the world leader in digital signal pr= ocessing and analog technologies, the semiconductor engines of the Internet= age. The company's businesses also include sensors and controls, and educa= tional and productivity solutions. TI is headquartered in Dallas, Texas, an= d has manufacturing or sales operations in more than 25 countries.
