TPS2549-Q1: Not use TPS2549-Q1 current limit detect

Part Number: TPS2549-Q1

Hello Team,

The customer do not like UVLO fuction of TPS2549-Q1, so they are considering the following figure..
 1) Is it possible to use TPS2549-Q1 as the folowing diagram?
 2) Is the load register and load capasitor required at OUT(12pin) if the answer of question 1)  is yes?
 3) What value of  load capasitor is required? The customer would like to use smaller capasitor than 22uF.

Would you please advise ?

Your help would be so appreciated.

Best Regards,

  • Can the DC/DC provide the current limit function for the USB port? If so, then this can work if the charging mode remains CDP or SDP. You could try this by using the EVM to see if it would work.

  • Hello Eric-san,

    Thank you for the answer.
    The customer uses TPS2549-Q1 in CDP mode, and DC-DC has the current limit function for USB port. As far as the customer and I tried, TPS2549-Q1 had no problem. However the customer and I wanted to confirm to the BU whether we can use TPS2549-Q1 without current limit function as we think about specification of TPS2549-Q1.

    How about OUTPUT pin configuration? Should we add the load resisters or capasitors? Would you please recomended circuit for OUT pin

    Your answer would be so appreciated.

  • Hello Tamazaki-san,

    I would suggest using the Rilim resistor within the recommended range and then OUT can simply be left open (no output C or R). Since the device will operate in the enabled state, OUT will be connected to IN so that Cin is connected to OUT. If there is a worry that OUT could be damaged if the device is disabled, then a small bypass capacitor (0.1uF) could be placed at the OUT pin.

  • Eric-san,

    Thank you for your answer.
