Hello team,
my customer is using the TPS92513HV and is considering in using it in a new redesign. The concerns are two:
- Maximum signal frequency applicable on the PWM dimming input pin:
On the datasheet it shows only the nominal parameter of t_rise, t_fall.
On the chapter "8.3.5 PWM Dimming (PDIM Pin)" of the same datasheet reports the note "The dimming frequency range is 100Hz to 1kHz", while on the application note TIDUBW3A (https://www.ti.com/lit/ug /tidubw3a/tidubw3a.pdf) in the chapter "2.2.2 Digital PWM Dimming Using PDIM" is the note "The dimming frequency range is 200 Hz to 5kHz".
To date the tested products approved and in mass production work at 2.4kHz.
I would like to know if there are any contraindications and attentions to keep to upgrade this frequency in the 15kHz-20kHz range.
-Synchronizing the Switching Frequency to an External Clock (RT / CLK Pin):
I would like to know if there are any contraindications and attentions to keep in generating the signal in object from micro controller in order to make the TPS92513HV driver work at different frequencies according to the different load conditions with "slow" transitions of the order of 100mS.
This technique would allow me to expand the V and I working ranges with the same hardware.
Please let me know.
Thank you and best regards,
Adrian
