The exploding demand of infotainment and safety in modern car systems requires very sophisticated and robust high-speed solutions which pass the EMC compliant test. ESD can cause a malfunction or even irreversible destruction of the system. Therefore, ESD protection devices are necessary to avoid those failures and leverage the system to a highly reliable and very robust level. |

The DRV325x-Q1 family of devices are integrated three phase gate drivers for 48-V automotive motor drive applications. These devices are specifically designed to support high-power motor drive applications by providing 3.5-A peak source and 4.5-A peak sink gate drive currents, 90-V MOSFET transient over voltage support, and using a highly efficient bootstrap architecture that minimizes power losses and self-heating of the gate drivers. A charge pump allows for the gate drivers to support 100% PWM duty cycle control. |

The TPS62903 is a highly-efficient, small, and flexible synchronous step-down DC-DC converter that is easy to use. A selectable switching frequency of 2.5 MHz or 1.0 MHz allows the use of small inductors and provides fast transient response. The device supports high VOUT accuracy of ± 1% with the DCS-Control topology. The wide input voltage range of 3 V to 17 V supports a variety of nominal inputs, like 12-V supply rails, single-cell or multi-cell Li-Ion, and 5-V or 3.3-V rails. |
