The TPS53681EVM-002 is a multiphase step-down controller with dual channels,built-in non-volatile memory (NVM), and PMBus interface, and isfully compatible with TI NexFET power stage. Advanced controlfeatures such as D-CAP+ architecture with undershoot reduction(USR) provide fast transient response, low output capacitance, and high efficiency. The device alsoprovides novel phase interleaving strategy and dynamic phase shedding for efficiency improvement atdifferent loads. The device supports fast dynamic voltage transitions with adjustable slew rate. Inaddition, the device supports the PMBus communication interface for reporting the telemetry ofvoltage, current, power, temperature, and fault conditions to the systems. All programmableparameters can be configured by the PMBus interface and can be stored in NVM as the new defaultvalues to minimize the external component count.
The TPS53681EVM-002 device is offered in a thermally enhanced 40-pin QFNpackaged and is rated to operate from –40°C to 125°C.
