Differences between TPS20xxC and TPS20xx

Genius 12865 points
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS2065C, TPS2065

Hello Team,

what are the differences between the TPS20xx and TPS20xxC family, please?

If I look at e.g. TPS2065 and TPS2065C I can't find any parameter which has been relaxed on the C version ;-)

When will the C-family be UL certified like the non C family?

Thanks and Best Regards,

Hans

  • Assuming that you read the datasheets, this will give an overview.  Our portfolio of switches has gone through a number of generations over the last 12 years as you might well imagine.

    Generally speaking:

    1)  Operating range is 4.5 to 5.5V - narrower
    2)  Initial release parts all have output discharge (previously there were 3 parts in the portfolio)
    3)  Current limit output I-V is a "flat" current limit with no peaking. Limits tend to be tighter.  Peaking imples a higer output current limit  (Ioc) than the short circuit (Ios).
    4)  Faster current limit response time 
    5)  2A Part in the family
    6)  Some differences in Rdson, Ilim tolerance, rise/fall times as inocated in the datasheet
    7)  Specifications provided at 25C only and over the temperature range.

    Devices have been submitted to UL for certification.

  • can i use TPS2065 with TPS2065C directly?
  • Yes, these two are pin for pin and can be evaluated using the same EVM PCB layout.
