Extending battery life with a boost converter

A device’s quiescent current, or IQ, is an important parameter for low-power, energy-efficient end equipment such as continuous blood glucose monitors (CGMs). The current drawn by the integrated circuit at light or no loads significantly influences power losses in standby mode and the total run time of the system.

TPS929160-Q1

With the increasing demand for animation in automotive lighting, LEDs must be controlled independently. Therefore, LED drivers with digital interfaces are essential to effectively drive pixel controlled lighting applications. In exterior lighting, multiple lamp functions are typically located on different PCB boards with off-board wires connected to each other. It is difficult for a traditional single ended interface to meet the strict EMC requirements. By using an industrial-standard CAN physical layer, the UART-based FlexWire interface of the TPS929160-Q1 easily accomplishes long distance offboard communication without impacting EMC.

Powering Sensitive ADC Designs with the TPS62913 Low-Ripple and Low-Noise Buck Converter

High speed analog to digital converters are notoriously sensitive to power supply noise. The most common solution to minimise that noise is to use linear power supplies, or a switch mode power supply (SMPS) from the main bus rail followed by a low dropout regulator. Compared to a linear supply, there are two big advantages of being able to use a SMPS alone: the reduction in power loss and the size of the power supply. To use a SMPS alone requires careful consideration of the switching supply selected, as well as the design and layout of the SMPS to achieve the desired results of the same performance with lower power dissipation and smaller board space.
