Texas Instruments LM25148/LM25148-Q1 Buck DC/DC Controller

Texas Instruments LM25148/LM25148-Q1 Synchronous Buck DC/DC Controller is a 42V, ultra-low IQ synchronous buck DC/DC controller for high-current, single-output applications. The controller uses a peak current-mode control architecture for easy loop compensation, fast transient response, and excellent load and line regulation. The LM25148/LM25148-Q1 can be set up in interleaved mode (paralleled output) with accurate current sharing for high-current applications. It can operate at input voltages as low as 3.5V, at nearly 100% duty cycle if needed.

The Texas Instruments LM25148/LM25148-Q1 has a unique EMI reduction feature known as a dual random spread spectrum (DRSS). Combining low-frequency triangular and high-frequency random modulations mitigates EMI disturbances across lower and higher frequency bands, respectively. This hybrid technique aligns with the multiple resolution bandwidth (RBW) settings specified in industry-standard EMC tests. The LM25148-Q1 devices are AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications.
