Automotive applications such as autonomous driving assist systems (ADAS) use ADAS domain controller processors such as Mobileye EyeQ5®. These are sophisticated processors which require a very high amount of current at very low voltages. These processors also require very fast transient response of the output voltage for step changes in processor load current.
This power-supply design highlights the TPS59632-Q1 and TPS59603-Q1 as high core rail solutions, as well as providing an overview of the D-CAP+™ power supply, a detailed design procedure, reference design and bill of material (BOM), test results and layout guidelines to develop a solution capable of meeting the needs of the Mobileye EyeQ5®-Mid-LowVcc processor.
