TPS65131-Q1: +/-2.5V

Dhinu Puthiyapurayil

Part Number: TPS65131-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM27762, TPS65131

Tool/software:

We need +/- 2.5V at a low current of around 20-30mA.

Will this IC support +2.5V? I noticed that the minimum Vpos is 3.2V.

Also, the efficiency appears quite low at this level. Could you suggest any alternatives or ICs that could provide +/- 2.5V with higher efficiency at such low voltages?

Hello Dhinu,

As you mentioned correctly VPos needs to be 0.5V higher then Vin. As Vin_min is 2.7V as a consequence Vpos is minimum 3.2V.

For this application I'd suggest to have a look at our LM27762DSSR, which could be a nice alternative. To raise efficiency it makes sense to use minimal Vdo (Vo-Vin), if PSRR and load transient response is important you need to raise Vin.

Thank you, Frank! We will order couple of LM27762 evaluation boards to evaluate it

Hi Dhinu,

Yes, you can directly use TPS65131 to generate -2.5V, but the +2.5V just as Frank mentioned, the LDO is needed as well.
