TPS51216-EP Automotive DDR3 Application

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS51216-EP, TPS54116-Q1

Is the TPS51216-EP suitable for automotive applications and is there an automotive grade -Q1 device?  

Can the controller switching freq be shifted to a higher freq to avoid EMI noise interference into AM radio?

If not, is there a similar DDR3 power solution component available that's better suited for automotive applications?

Thanks,

Bill

  • TPS51216-EP is an extended product for military applications.  The switching frequency can be either 300 or 400 kHz.  You might look at the new TPS54116-Q1 automotive DDR solution.  It has wide range adjustable Fsw from 100 kHz to 2.5 MHz.
