The BD96806Qxx-C Series from ROHM Semiconductor are Automotive-Qualified Configurable Power Management ICs that are designed to provide power and functional protection to FPGAs and application processors. They require an input voltage of 2.7-5.5 V for operation. These AEC-Q100-qualified power management ICs (PMICs) consist of a control logic block, 2-channel buck DC-DC regulators, MOSFETs, control and oscillators for buck regulators, and integrated monitoring and protection circuits. They offer a scalable approach by either utilizing an internal MOSFET to provide an output current of up to 10 A or an external MOSFET driver that provides an output current of 40 A. These PMICs include a remote sensing function to supply accurate voltage at the point of load. They provide analog/digital-based self-testing with high-precision supervision for diagnosing critical signal pins and ensuring proper operation.
These PMICs are equipped with over-voltage protection, under-voltage protection, thermal shutdown, and under-voltage lockout to protect built-in components and circuits against abnormal events. They also have an I2C interface that supports fast mode (up to 400 kHz) and fast mode plus (up to 1 MHz) with cyclic redundancy check (CRC) error correction mechanism for reliable data transfer and control. These power management ICs are available in surface-mount packages that measure 5 x 5 x 1 mm and are ideal for instrument cluster panel, in-vehicle infotainment systems, and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) applications.
