TPS65983B: Temp. range

Part Number: TPS65983B
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS65981EVM, , TPS65981

Hi,

 is there a version that supports PD 3.0 controllers and it is specified at -40 +85 degrees C?

We can address also some industrial PC applications.

Thanks

Umberto

  • Hi Umberto,

    Are you building a thunderbolt 3 ecosystem?

    If not, the TPS65983B is not recommended. I would recommend using the TPS65981EVM, which is customizable to fit most type of builds and it's rated for -40 to 125C.

    We currently do not offer a PD3.0 mass-market device, but the good news is that PD3.0 didn't change much from PD2.0. The Power Rules are identical (5V, 9V, 15V, 20V). What new features are needed from PD3.0 that PD2.0 does not offer?

    I hope this helps and If this answers your question, PLEASE select  This resolved my issue. 

  • Hi Aramis,

     no , the application is not Thunderbolt, my customer designs industrial PC boards and they need to be compliant with PD 3.0 specification.

    I am not sure which feature is more important, but because they are general purpose, it is a selling point to be compatible with latest specifications.

    Are we planning any new device with PD 3.0?
    Thanks

    Umberto

  • Hi Umberto,

    If the application is not Thunderbolt, then the TPS65981 would be the PD controller I would recommend. We are planning to release a PD3.0 non-thunderbolt controller. We currently believe this device might APL around the end of Q2 of 2018, but this could be subject to change.

    If your customer needs a PD device today, we only have PD2.0 devices. I would ask your customer what specs on PD3.0 they plan on using that PD2.0 doesn't have. There are several applications where the new features of PD3.0 are not used, hence PD2.0 would work just fine :-)
