DESCRIPTION
The TPS54541 device is a 42-V 5-A step-down
regulator with an integrated high-side MOSFET. The
device survives load dump pulses up to 45 V per ISO
7637. Current mode control provides simple external
compensation and flexible component selection. A
low-ripple pulse-skip mode reduces the no load
supply current to 152 μA. Shutdown supply current is
reduced to 2 μA when the enable pin is pulled low.
Undervoltage lockout is internally set at 4.3 V but can
increase using an external resistor divider at the
enable pin. The output voltage startup ramp is
controlled by the soft-start pin that can also be
configured for sequencing and tracking. An open-
drain power-good signal indicates the output is within
93% to 106% of the nominal voltage.
A wide adjustable switching-frequency range allows
for optimization of either efficiency or external
component size. Cycle-by-cycle current limit,
frequency foldback and thermal shutdown protects
internal and external components during an overload
condition.
The TPS54541 device is available in a 10-pin 4-mm ×
4-mm SON package.
