3 Description

The TPS54541 device is a 42-V 5-A step-down

regulator with an integrated high-side MOSFET. The

device survives load dump pulses up to 45 V per ISO

7637. Current mode control provides simple external

compensation and flexible component selection. A

low-ripple pulse-skip mode reduces the no-load

supply current to 152 μA. When the enable pin is

pulled low, the shutdown supply current is reduced to

2 μA .

Undervoltage lockout is internally set at 4.3 V but can

increase using an external resistor divider at the

enable pin. The output voltage startup ramp is

controlled by the soft-start pin that can also be

configured for sequencing and tracking. An opendrain

power-good signal indicates the output is within

93% to 106% of the nominal voltage.

A wide adjustable switching-frequency range allows

for optimization of either efficiency or external

component size. Cycle-by-cycle current limit,

frequency foldback, and thermal shutdown protect

internal and external components during an overload

condition.

The TPS54541 device is available in a 10-pin 4-mm ×

4-mm WSON package.
