According to the company, the LM5170-Q1 analogue controller features an average current-mode control method that overcomes the challenges of high-component-count, full digital control schemes.
Hybrid electric vehicles use both a high-voltage 48V battery and the standard 12V automotive battery. Design engineers typically manage these dual battery systems using a digital control scheme, which are bulky and expensive.
To solve this challenge, the company claims to offer a mixed architecture in which the microcontroller handles higher-level intelligent management and the analogue controller provides the power conversion.
The LM5170-Q1 is offered in a 48pin, 9 x 9mm quad flat package.
