TPS63900 75 nA IQ Buck-Boost Converter

Texas Instruments' 1.8 V to 5.5 V converter features input current limit and dynamic voltage scaling (DVS)

Image of Texas Instruments' TPS63900 75nA IQ Buck-Boost ConverterTexas Instruments' TPS63900 device is a high-efficiency synchronous buck-boost converter with an extremely low quiescent current of 75 nA (typ.). The device has 32 user-programmable output voltage settings from 1.8 V to 5 V. A dynamic voltage-scaling feature lets applications switch between two output voltages during operation; for example, to save power by using a lower system supply voltage during standby operation. With its wide supply voltage range and programmable input current limit (1 mA to 100 mA and unlimited), the device is ideal for use with a wide range of primary such as 3S Alkaline, 1S Li-MnO2 or 1S Li-SOCl2, and secondary battery types. The high-output current capability supports commonly-used RF standards including sub-1 GHz, BLE, LoRa, wM-Bus, and NB-IoT.
