A4409: Adjustable Frequency Buck or Buck-Boost Pre-Regulator with 2 LDOs, Window Watchdog Timer, and NPOR

Description

The A4409 is a power management IC that uses a buck or buck-boost pre-regulator to efficiently convert automotive battery voltages into a tightly regulated intermediate voltage, complete with control, diagnostics, and protections. The output of the pre-regulator supplies a 5 V, 300 mAMINLDO and a 5 V, 200 mAMINLDO. Designed to supply CAN or microprocessor power supplies in high-temperature environments, the A4409 is ideal for underhood applications.

允许输入的A4409高——兼容voltage battery level (ENBAT).

从A4409包括权力——诊断输出on-reset output (NPOR) with a fixed 22.5 ms typical delay. Dual bandgaps, one for regulation and one for fault checking, improve long-term reliability of a system designed around the A4409.

The A4409 contains a window watchdog timer that can be programmed to accept a wide range of clock frequencies (WDADJ). The watchdog timer has a fixed 30 ms activation delay to accommodate processor startup. The watchdog timer has an enable/disable pin (active low, WDENn) to facilitate initial factory programming or field reflash programming.

Protection features include dual control loop for pre-regulator rail. In case of a shorted output, all linear regulators feature foldback overcurrent protection. The switching regulator includes pulse-by-pulse current limit, hiccup mode short-circuit protection, LX short-circuit protection, missing asynchronous diode protection, and thermal shutdown.

The A4409 is supplied in a low profile (1.2 mm maximum height), 20-lead eTSSOP package (suffix “LP”) with exposed thermal pad.
