TI rolls power management reference designs

Texas Instruments Inc. (TI) has unveiled its PowerLab library, which the company claims is the industry's most extensive collection of tested power management reference designs.

The PowerLab library helps designers select from more than 300 power management reference designs for a wide range of applications and power conversion topologies. Examples include both isolated and non-isolated designs for lighting, telecommunication, computing, consumer electronics and more.

The PowerLab library includes an interactive and powerful search engine for design engineers looking for a proven and tested solution to their power supply requirements. The interactive search tool allows engineers to find designs by application, topology, input type, input voltage or output voltage. New solutions will be added to the PowerLab database each month.

"TI is committed to providing our customers the best technical support in the industry," says Masoud Beheshti, worldwide strategic marketing and applications director of TI's Power Management business. "With our PowerLab reference design library, designers now have the ability to quickly and simply leverage the many years of our power supply expertise and get their products to market faster."

All reference designs in the database are tested and include the following supporting technical documentation: circuit schematic, printed circuit board layout, bill-of-materials, gerber files and other design support tools.
