Description of the TPS61193 or TPS61193-Q1 Device
The TPS61193 or TPS61193-Q1 is an automotive high-efficiency LED driver with integrated boost/SEPIC
converter. It has three high-precision current sinks that can be controlled by a PWM input signal.
The boost converter has adaptive output voltage control based on the LED current sink headroom
voltages. This feature minimizes the power consumption by adjusting the voltage to lowest sufficient level
in all conditions. A boost controller supports spread spectrum for switching frequency and an external
synchronization with dedicated pin. The high switching frequency allows the TPS61193 or TPS61193-Q1
to avoid disturbance for AM radio band.
The input voltage range for TPS61193 or TPS61193-Q1 is from 4.5 V to 40 V to support automotive
stop/start and load dump condition. The TPS61193 or TPS61193-Q1 device supports PWM brightness
dimming ratio up to 10 000:1 for an input PWM frequency of 200 Hz. The device integrates extensive
safety and protection features.
