PRODUCTION DATA.
The analog outputs of the Buck-Boost converter can be enabled in two different ways: Current Output Mode or Voltage Output Mode. The positive/negative arm of the selected Buck-Boost converter can be enabled via writing to address 0x07 (Configuration Buck-Boost Register (address = 0x07) [reset = 0x0000]). Note that, VNEG_IN is internally shorted to GND when the negative arm of Buck-Boost converter is not enabled.
When used in voltage output mode, the Buck-Boost converter generates a constant ±15.0 V for the positive and negative power supplies.
When used in current output mode the Buck-Boost converter generates the positive and negative power supply based on the RANGE setting, for example the negative power supply is only generated for ±24 mA range.
The minimum voltage that the Buck-Boost converter can generate on the VPOS_IN pin in 4.96 V with a typical efficiency of 75% at PVDD = 12 V and a load current of 24 mA, thus significantly minimizing power dissipation on chip. The maximum voltage that the Buck-Boost converter can generate on the VPOS_IN pin is 32 V. Similarly, the minimum voltage that the Buck-Boost converter can generate on the VNEG_IN pin in -15.0 V. The maximum voltage that the Buck-Boost converter can generate on the VNEG_IN pin in -5.0 V
