Power Supply Chips Selection Guide

ABSTRACT

This article is the seventh section in the FPGA and CPLD Guide series and will introduce Analog and Power chips which can be used in FPGA and their simple applications.

There are many power chips can be used as power supply for FPGA and CPLD. However, the power chips we need are those that can simplify power supply circuit design and quicken up design process. To meet the requirement, those power chips should be featured with some characteristics. Firstly, their output voltage range and maximal output current should meet the demands of FPGA’s input voltage and operating current as much as possible. Secondly, those power chips should have high efficiency and low power consumption. The input voltage and the input current of FPGA and CPLD are shown below.

MAXIM Products Selection Guide

The figure shown above is a DDR tester solution. LPC2214FBD144/01,5 has the topmost controlling privilege; EP2S15 is the core of the DDR tester, which is responsible for sending commands to DDR chip and setting status registers for it, as well as writing specific data and reading them out from DDR. At the end of test, EP2S15 returns the result to MCU. MAX8543 is the main chip of the power supply circuit in the system. The +12V input voltage is transformed into +5V, +3.3V, +2.5V, +1.8V and +1.2V via five pieces of MAX8543. One of +2.5V is transformed into +1.25V SSTL2 voltage by LP2995M which is manufactured by NSC. DDR variable voltage supply circuit consists of MAX8505, MAX4173, MAX1364 and DS3902, which is used to adjust DDR test voltage and monitor the current.

The MAX8505 is a step-down regulator which operates from 2.6V to 5.5V input and generates an adjustable output voltage from 0.8V to 0.85x VIN at loads up to 3A. The MAX1363/MAX1364 is a low-power, 12-bit, 4-channel analog-to-digital converter (ADCs), which features a digitally programmable window comparator with an interrupt output for automatic system-monitoring applications. The MAX4173 is a low-cost, precise, high-side current sense amplifier. The DS3902 is a dual-port, nonvolatile (NV), low temperature-coefficient, variable digital resistor with 256 user-selectable positions. Now list out MAXIM power produces can be used for FPGA and CPLD as below.

Car Networks Solution

image006.gif

As shown in the above figures, car networks are usually composed of two parts, one is body and power train control networks, the other is telematics and multimedia sub-networks. The whole solution is based on a SOPC. Most of applications can be implemented with Cyclone III family such as EP3C25 or EP3C40Q240C8N., etc. The central controller and the body controller can be implemented with the Nios II 32-bit embedded processor Soft-Core of Cyclone III family. There are also many different IP core building blocks such as CAN, MOST, or FlexRay controllers/interfaces, or video and image processing modules in Cyclone III can be used for the car networks.

To supply power for the Cyclone III family FPGA, some power supply chips manufactured by NS can be selected such as LM2743, LM2745MTC/NOPB, LM2748 and LM2747, etc. They can transform the +5V system input voltage into +1.2V, +1.5V,+1.8V,+2.5V,+3.0V and +3.3V. Now list out NS power produces can be used for FPGA and CPLD as below.
