DESCRIPTION
The TPS61252 device provides a power supply solution for products powered by either a three-cell alkaline,
NiCd or NiMH battery, or an one-cell Li-Ion or Li-polymer battery. The wide input voltage range is ideal to power
portable applications like mobile phones or for computer peripherals. The device has a resistor programmable
(R
ILIM
) input current limit and is suitable for a wide variety of applications.
During light loads the device will automatically enter skip mode (PFM), which allows the converter to maintain the
required output voltage, while only drawing 30 mA from the battery. This will allow maximum efficiency at lowest
quiescent currents.
TPS61252 allows the use of small inductors and input capacitors to achieve a small solution size. The possibility
to reduce the current limit by a external resistor offers the potential use of physically even smaller inductors with
lower rated current to further reduce total solution sizes of the power supply. During shutdown, the load is
completely disconnected from the battery. The TPS61252 is available in a 8-pin QFN package measuring 2×2
mm (DSG).
