I have a requirement for a power system that recharges a dual cell li-ion (or li-poly) pack with power path management and produces outputs at:
- 3.3V at 500mA - to an ARM SoM
- 3.3V at 100mA - switchable - to GPS and WiFi arrays
- 5V at 2.4 Amps - switchable - to sensor array
- 12V at 240mA - switchable - to sensor array (I can feed a 5V/3.3V output to a boot converter for this).
I can likely control all load switches from a small microcontroller so the ARM SoM could be switchable too. But given the high current of the 5V line, it would be unfeasable that system charging would involve suppling charge current and the the 5V line simultaneously.
Although the TPS65090 looks a little complex, it also looks like it fills all the requirements in one package. I realise this is a new part but is there a datasheet available? Or is it not shipping yet?
If not shipping, would there be a similar part? I'm happy to do it seperately - eg: bq24160 (or its 2 cell equivalent) followed by the requisite buck converters and load switches. But I'd also be happy to be lazy and do it all in one part!
Thanks, Conor.
