With integrated feedback and integrated compensation, all that is left to complete the high efficiency power supply is the output inductor and capacitors. The ISL78083 minimizes BOM cost, requiring 7-10 less external components compared to competing solutions. The ISL78083 also features four overvoltage (OV) and four undervoltage (UV) monitors, three power-good indicators and a reset output/fault indicator. A second reference is supplied for the OV/UV monitors. Key Features of ISL78083 Automotive Camera PMIC Input voltage of 4V to 42V supports power-over-coax or direct from a 12V battery power source Three buck regulators provide programmable output ranges from 1V to 5.05V, and the LDO supports 2.8V to 3.4V 2.2MHz switching frequency avoids AM band interference and shrinks the required output capacitance and inductance An optional spread spectrum feature addresses EMC/EMI interference challenges Wettable flank package improves reliability of solder connections and enables optical inspection of solder joints for lower cost manufacturing AEC-Q100 Grade-1 qualified for ambient operation from -40°C to +125°C, and junction temperature from -40°C to +150°C

These features and a 70mm2 solution size make it easier for power supply designers to design a small AI solution with 2mm x 2mm x 1mm low profile inductors, small capacitors, and a few passive components. The ISL91301B’s low quiescent current, superior light load efficiency, high DC accuracy and fast dynamics is well suited for low-power or battery-powered AI products. “We are thrilled to be collaborating with Google on their innovative, next generation products,” said Andrew Cowell, Vice President, Mobility Infrastructure & IoT Power Business Division at Renesas. “Our multiphase PMIC employs Renesas’ industry-leading R5 modulation technology for blazingly fast transient response, which allows Google’s designers to dynamically scale power to improve overall system performance.” Kai Yick, Google Hardware Manager said, “Renesas’ Multiphase PMICs provide our engineering team with the high performance and design flexibility required to build Coral. Our collaboration with Renesas ensures our Edge TPU achieve the highest power efficiency to perform calculations offline and locally.”

Renesas Electronics Simplifies Power Supply Design for Automotive Surround View Camera Systems Highly Integrated ISL78083 Automotive Camera PMIC Provides Multiple Features and Power Density to Fit Ever-Shrinking HD Camera Modules Renesas Electronics Corporation, a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, announced the ISL78083, a highly integrated power management IC (PMIC) that simplifies power supply design for use in multiple HD camera modules, reducing development cycles, bill of materials (BOM) cost and supply chain risks. The automotive camera PMIC accepts direct-from-battery (36-42V) or power-over-coax (15-18V) supply sources and supports output currents up to 750mA per output. This power level offers ample headroom
