TI intros industry's smallest 12-A synchronous buck regulator with PMBus™ interface

FORT WORTH, USA: Texas Instruments (TI) has introduced the industry's smallest 12-A, synchronous DC/DC buck converter with PMBus interface.

The SWIFT TPS53915 converter features a tiny PowerStack™ QFN package and integrated NexFET™ MOSFETS to drive ASICs in space-constrained and power-dense applications in a variety of markets, including wired and wireless communications, enterprise/cloud computing and storage systems.

Used in conjunction with TI's award-winning WEBENCH online design tools, the TPS53915 simplifies power conversion and speeds the design process.

he highly integrated converter features 0.5 percent reference voltage accuracy to meet voltage requirements of deep sub-micron processors. D-CAP3™ adaptive on-time control mode is easy to use, provides very fast load transient response and reduces external component count.

Programmability and fault reporting via PMBus simplifies power supply design and further reduces component count.
