TAS2563: TAS 2563 Typical Application

Part Number: TAS2563

Tool/software:

Hi Sirs,

     I noticed that L1 is a 1uH inductor, but it said that the saturation current of inductor is 4.5A.  I would like to know that how big is it?  (0805? 1206? or...?)

    Besides, if my battery is only 3.7V (1.961Wh) and is for use with a watch application, does the current still be this large? Do I still need such a large inductor? Thanks.

  • Hi Paul,

    You may find some 1uH with the mentioned current rating in 0805 package, or bigger.

    If your application does not require the full power capabilities of TAS2563, you can use a lower current rating inductor. In order to make sure the inductor does not go into saturation, you can configure BST_ILIM register to a lower value (the default is 3.96A). You can use PPC3 to adjust this value in your configuration file.
