The TPS7H4002-SP is a radiation hardened, 5.5-V,
3-A synchronous step-down converter, which is optimized for small designs through high
efficiency and by 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, which reduces the inductor footprint.
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 TPS7H4002-SP can be configured in
primary-secondary mode for parallel operation.
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 limit.
