Texas Instruments provides a recommended layout and routing guide in the TPS65980RHFR Evaluation Module User's Guide (SLUUAC5). It's essential to follow this guide to ensure proper operation and minimize noise and EMI issues.
The TPS65980RHFR has a wide range of configuration options. TI provides a software tool called the TPS65980 Configurator Tool (TPS65980CT) that helps engineers configure the device for their specific application. The tool generates a configuration file that can be loaded into the device.
The TPS65980RHFR's power switches are capable of delivering up to 2.5A of continuous current. However, the actual current capability depends on the specific application, PCB layout, and thermal design. It's essential to perform thermal analysis and simulation to ensure the device operates within its thermal limits.
TI provides a troubleshooting guide in the TPS65980RHFR datasheet (SLVSAC9). Additionally, engineers can use the TPS65980RHFR Evaluation Module to test and debug their design. TI also offers a range of support resources, including the TI E2E forum and technical support team.
The TPS65980RHFR is a general-purpose power management IC that can be used with a wide range of processors and SoCs. However, it's essential to verify compatibility by checking the processor's power requirements and ensuring that the TPS65980RHFR can meet those requirements. TI provides a range of reference designs and application notes for popular processors and SoCs.
