Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS61086
Hello
My customer intend to design boost converter whose input is alcaline x 2( 1.8~ 3.2V)
and ouput is 3.3V 100mA(min) /300mA(typ) /1Apeak . ( Compe; Tolex XC9141)
Also, forced PWM ( hope to > 1MHz ) should be hopefully , because audio application.
I had suggested customer TPS61021A because its switching current(3A) is enough to
handle 1A peak, however, I understand that in case BATTERY is full ; for example
3.0V, output current may be less than 100mA...
If so, TPS61021A enters PFM mode and switching frequency becomes 100KHz or lower.
In my Webench simulation ( load transient) , if output were e.g. 50mA,switching frequency is
approx 60kHz and seems not enter audible frequency, but customer is concerned about it .
(Unfortunately, we don't have EVM now.)
Anyway, TPS61086 is forced PWM and may be good candidate, but Vin(MIN) = 2.3V
Question1
Do you think the switching frequency of TPS61021A do not enter audible frequency
in case Vin=3.0V/Vout=3.3V 50mA? ( as my webench sim) Or, we should buy EVM asap?
I hope have your advise.
Question 2
Would you please advise your suggestion ( solution) for boost converter?
:forced PWM or assurance for don't enter audio frequency
:Vin 1.8~ 3.2 ( alcaline x 2)
:Vout 3.3V
:Iout 100mA min/300mA typ/ 1A max
Please give me your advise soon.
Thanks for your support
Best Regards
