TPS7B7701-Q1: Dual channel version as alternative component.

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS7B7702-Q1

Hello TI experts.

Is it correct approach to use TPS7B7702-Q1 as BOM alternative component for TPS7B7701-Q1 in automotive E-CALL application?

Current PCB is routed for single channel version. So

I don't see any problems to leave second channel's pins unconnected. But it would be great to get expert's point of view.

Thank you in advance.

Hi Ivan,

Are you using the current sensing feature? Also, are you grounding the NC pins or leaving them floating? I don't believe there is any issue with doing this, but my only concern would be in regards to the SEN_SEL being left floating. I think there's an internal 10-uA pulldown but I need to verify. I have an EVM so I can go test this.

Regards,

Nick

Hi Ivan,

SEN_SEL does have an internal pulldown circuit. There is no issue with using TPS7B7702-Q1 as you have described.

Regards,

Nick
