L5965Overview1Overview L5965 is a multichannel voltage regulator able to offer flexibility and ease to use, together with a set of features that make it compliant to car passenger applications that require a certain level of safety. The product includes input and output monitors, independent band-gaps, ground loss monitors, internal compensation networks, that also help reduce the BOM, digital and analog BIST, fault pin. In this product, there are 7 different regulators. A first battery-compatible regulator, a controller that can supply several current flow thanks to the use of external MOSs. A second regulator with integrated MOS that can be used as a pre-regulator for currents up to about 2.6 A. Two bucks, post regulators, one boost that can be used to supply, for example, a CAN bus, one LDO and a 1% accurate reference voltage for the microcontroller. All output voltages can be selected via memory cells (OTP) that can be programmed before using the PMIC. This guarantees precision and safety, since output voltages are not susceptible to variations due to the external environment. It also contributes to reducing the number of external components. Through the OTP it is also possible to decide the switching frequency of some regulators, the current limitation, select the main buck and the system power-on sequence. Programming can also be done at customer’s production line. There is also an SPI bus, used to program the PMIC and to communicate with the microcontroller. Through this bus it is possible to set overvoltage and undervoltage thresholds, enable the spread spectrum, select the soft start time and many other things. The SPI is also used to communicate the status of the bucks in case of fault, over- temperature or other events. The maximum free run switching frequency of the bucks is 2.4 MHz, modifiable through external synchronization signals. The PMIC can manage watchdog and reset signals. 1.1Simplified block diagramFigure 1.
