Description
The A8450 is a multioutput power supply intended for
automotive applications. The A8450 operates from a wide
input supply range and is designed to satisfy the requirements
of high ambient temperature environments.
Four regulated voltage outputs provide multiple options. The
3.3 V regulator and the 1.2 to 3.3 V adjustable regulator can be
used to power microcontroller or DSP cores, or for I/O, sensing,
and A-to-D conversion. Two 5 V outputs, one digital and the
other analog, feature output tracking within 0.5% of each other
over the operating temperature range. In addition, the analog
regulator is protected against short-to-battery conditions. All
four regulators feature foldback current limit protection.
The device can be enabled or disabled using two input pins.
The high voltage input, on the ENBAT pin, allows enable/
disable using an engine ignition or battery switch signal. The
logic-level input, on the ENB pin, allows enable/disable by
microcontroller or DSP signals.
When disabled, the A8450 draws less than 10 μA of current.
A POR (power-on-reset) block monitors the supply voltages
and provides a reset signal, with an adjustable delay, for
Not to scale
