3 Description

The TPS65217x is a single-chip power management

IC (PMIC) specifically designed to power the AM335x

ARM® Cortex®-A8 processor in portable and 5-V linepowered

applications. The PMIC device provides a

linear battery charger for single-cell Li-ion and Lipolymer

batteries, dual-input power path, three stepdown

converters, four low-dropout (LDO) regulators,

and a high-efficiency boost converter to power two

strings of up to 10 LEDs each. The system can be

supplied by any combination of USB port, 5-V AC

adaptor, or Li-Ion battery. The device is characterized

across a –40°C to +105°C temperature range which

makes it suitable for industrial applications. Three

high-efficiency 2.25-MHz step-down converters can

providing the core voltage, memory, and I/O voltage

for a system. The TPS65217x device comes in a 48-

pin leadless package (6-mm × 6-mm VQFN) with a

0.4-mm pitch.
