Looks like the Nat Semi part of TI has been busy ... they have announced so= me synchronous buck regulators obviously aimed at use in new 48V car electr= ic systems, but I can imagine they will find pretty wide use elsewhere. To quote ... Designing power solutions for high-voltage systems presents challenges with= board space, thermal performance, and total solution cost. Design time is = critical, too, requiring solutions that are easier to use and design in. Th= ese issues are common in applications like high-voltage industrial, automot= ive battery management, and non-isolated and isolated telecom systems that = require 100V transient protection.=20 To help address these challenges, Texas Instruments introduces LM5017, LM50= 18, and LM5019, the industry's first family of 100V synchronous integrated = buck regulators providing unparalleled power density and ease of use. The L= M5017 with integrated FETs provides 600mA of output current and operates up= to 100V, delivering peace of mind to designers facing high-voltage input t= ransient conditions. =20 Watch the video and learn more about the high-voltage regulator and see a d= emo of the isolated output option. =20 Featured Products * LM5017 - For input voltages up to 100V, this Constant On-Time synchrono= us buck regulator requires no loop compensation, provides excellent transie= nt response, and enables very low step-down ratios for communications infra= structure, automotive, and industrial applications and can also be used as = an isolated bias supply. * LM5018 - For input voltages up to 100V with 300 mA output current. * LM5019 - For input voltages up to 100V with 100 mA output current. =20 Related Products * UCC25230 - This highly integrated PWM converter operates as an isolated= forward flyback with a wide operating input voltage range from 12 to 100V.
