3 Description

The TPS50601A-SP is a radiation hardened, 7-V, 6-A

synchronous step-down converter, which is optimized

for small designs through high efficiency and

integrating the high-side and low-side MOSFETs.

Further space savings are achieved through current

mode control, which reduces component count, and a

high switching frequency, reducing the inductor's

footprint. The devices are offered in an ultra small,

thermally enhanced 20-pin ceramic flatpack package.

The output voltage startup ramp is controlled by the

SS/TR pin which allows operation as either a stand

alone power supply or in tracking situations. Power

sequencing is also possible by correctly configuring

the enable and the open drain power good pins. In

addition, the TPS50601A-SP can be configured in

master-slave mode to provide up to 12-A of output

current.

Cycle-by-cycle current limiting on the high-side FET

protects the device in overload situations and is

enhanced by a low-side sourcing current limit which

prevents current runaway. There is also a low-side

sinking current limit which turns off the low-side

MOSFET to prevent excessive reverse current.

Thermal shutdown disables the part when die

temperature exceeds thermal shutdown temperature.
