Low-Noise Fixed Drop-Out ±2.5 to ±12-VOUT 3A Power Supply Reference Design for Ultrasound CW Pulser

TIDA-01458

Design files

Overview

This reference design allows a digitally programmable power supply to power an ultrasound transmit circuit for continuous wave (CW) mode from a 24-V bus. There are two outputs adjustable from ±2.5 to ±12 V under user software control. These outputs can provide up to 2 A with very low ripple and noise on both positive and negative regulator outputs. The power supply is scalable for higher output currents up to 3 A by adding more regulators in parallel. The power supplies can also be synchronized to an external clock.

Features
  • Separate and independent positive and negative voltage power supplies for CW mode in ultrasonic
  • To reduce ripple at output's high performance, low noise LDOs are operated as power filters to obtain lowest ripple with minimum heat dissipation in LDO (<100µV at 1.6A load)
  • Comprises two high-performance buck regulators for creating adjustable outputs
  • Adaptive drop on LDO, special circuit keeps LDO output always 1V below LDO input
  • Capable of switching frequency synchronization with ultrasound master or system clock frequency
