The MAX17506 high-efficiency, high-voltage, synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with integrated high-side MOSFET operates over a 4.5V to 60V input. The converter can deliver up to 5A and generates output voltages from 0.9V up to 0.9 x VIN. The feedback (FB) voltage is accurate to within ±1.4% over -40°C to +125°C. The MAX17506 uses peak current-mode control and can be operated in the pulse-width modulation (PWM), pulse-frequency modulation (PFM), and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) control schemes.
This reference design functions from a base of silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs that are driven by a C2000 microcontroller (MCU) with SiC-isolated gate drivers. The design implements three-phase interleaving and operates in continuous conduction mode (CCM) to achieve a 98.46% efficiency at a 240-V input voltage and 6.6-kW full power. The C2000 controller enables phase shedding and adaptive dead-time control to improve the power factor at light load. The gate driver board (see TIDA-01605) is capable of delivering a 4-A source and 6-A sink peak current. The gate driver board implements a reinforced isolation and can withstand more than 100-V/ns common-mode transient immunity (CMTI). The gate driver board also contains the two-level turnoff circuit, which protects the MOSFET from voltage overshoot during the short-circuit scenario.
The TIDA-00792 TI Design provides monitoring, balancing, primary protection and gauging for a 12 to 15 cell lithium-ion or lithium-iron phosphate based batteries. This board is intended to be mounted in an enclosure for industrial systems. The reference design subsystem provides battery protection and gauging configuration with parameters avoiding code development and provides high side protection switching to allow simple PACK- referenced SMBus communication for battery status even while protected.
Texas Instruments' ZLLRC reference design enables simple and direct control of lights connected to a ZigBee Light Link network. It is designed to control a subgroup of lights on that network, such as the lights in a room in your home. It creates its own group containing lights that have touch connections to it. These lights can be added/removed later. It has 14 buttons to control status (on/off), hue, saturation, level, target selection and scene. ZLLRC is supported by Z-Stack Lighting version 1.0.2 and higher. It is based on the CC2530 system-on-chip (SoC) with integrated ZigBee radio. It connects to the onboard PIFA PCB antenna through an integrated balun. To extend battery life, the TPS62730 DCDC converter can be used to convert the CR2025 battery voltage to 2.1 V.
TI Design TIDEP-0091 highlights strategies for power optimization of IWR14xx 76- to 81-GHz mmWave sensors in tank level-probing applications, displacement sensors, 4- to 20-mA sensors, and other low-power applications for detecting range with high accuracy in a minimal power envelope. In these applications, the system often operates on a low-voltage data line that provides less power than the operational power consumption. Duty cycling is critical to reducing the average power to meet the power input restrictions. Power optimization is achieved through MSP432 external duty cycling the IWR14xx device for periodic sensing. Additionally, this TI Design provides a sample configuration for single-dimensional range detection.Read more about fluid-level sensing using 77-GHz millimeter wave (SPYY004).Watch the introduction to level sensing (video).

The MAXREFDES1206 is a Power over Ethernet (PoE) powered device and active clamp forward converter that delivers up to 1A at 24V from a 39V to 57V supply voltage.
Since my four-wheel drive robot is powered by a 16.5V lithium battery, and there is no charger for this battery on the market, I am very confused about charging it. In desperation, we designed a portable and simple lithium battery charger. Solve the trouble of charging. The charger can output an adjustable charging current of 100mA-1A. The input voltage is VIN>18V, and it can be charged with the 19V voltage on the laptop. Charging time is generally determined according to the size of the charging output current.

This BoosterPack package contains an "EM Adapter BoosterPack". The purpose of this EM adapter board is to provide an easy-to-use bridge between any TI MCU LaunchPad and various TI RF Evaluation Modules (EMs), such as the CCxxxx Low Power RF Evaluation Modules. No specific software is provided, so it is the user's responsibility to write the appropriate code to interface between the MCU and the RF device.
This TI design combines TI's wireless microcontroller (CC3200) with third-party vendor DLP Design's TRF7970 NFC BoosterPack to simulate a near field communication (NFC) card reader that scans from an NFC card to of data is transmitted securely and in real time over Wi-Fi networks to any remote location or database.

The TIDA-00136 reference design is a high-speed serial video interface that allows remote automotive WVGA TFT LCD displays using the OpenLDI (LVDS) interface to be connected to a video processing system. This design uses TI's FPD-Link II SerDes technology to transmit uncompressed video data over shielded twisted pair or coaxial cable. Examples of applications include rear-seat entertainment systems, automotive instrument clusters and head unit displays. This design combines the DS99R421Q1-EVK and DS90UR124-Q1 boards to form the solution.
A portable device using the circuit of Figure 1 derives power from the USB bus. The MAX1811 uses USB power charges a lithium-ion (Li+) battery at, USB compatible, 100mA or 500mA rates. Battery power is then stepped up with the MAX1797 to create the 5V supply rail. The 5V supply rail is then stepped down with the MAX1837 to create the 3.3V supply rail. The circuit includes a low battery shutdown to protect the Li+ battery and offers a convenient charging LED.
