DESCRIPTION
The TPS51125A is a cost effective, dual-synchronous
buck controller targeted for notebook system power
supply solutions. It provides 5-V and 3.3-V LDOs and
requires few external components. The 270-kHz
VCLK output can be used to drive an external charge
pump, generating gate drive voltage for the load
switches without reducing the main converter’s
efficiency. The TPS51125A supports high efficiency,
fast transient response and provides a combined
power-good signal. Out-of-Audio™ mode light-load
operation enables low acoustic noise at much higher
efficiency than conventional forced PWM operation.
Adaptive on-time D-CAP™ control provides
convenient and efficient operation. The part operates
with supply input voltages ranging from 5.5 V to 28 V
and supports output voltages from 2 V to 5.5 V. The
TPS51125A is available in a 24-pin QFN package
and is specified from -40°C to 85°C ambient
temperature range.
