Evaluation Module Texas Instruments TPL5100EVM

TPL5100EVM - Evaluation Module for Nano Power Programmable Timer with Watchdog Functionality.

Detailed Description

The Texas Instruments TPL5100EVM evaluation module (EVM) allows a designer to configure the delay timers of the TPL5100 and measure its very low current consumption.

Moreover the TPL5100EVM is ready to be connected to the Launchpads of MSP430, Stellaris and C2000 in order to test its watchdog and timer and power cycling features.

The TPL5100 is a long-term timer IC optimized for low power applications. The TPL5100 can replace a micro controller's (µC) internal timer, allowing the µC to stay completely off instead of running a timer, providing a total power consumption reduction of 60 to 80%.The TPL5100 is designed for use in power cycled applications and provides selectable timing from 16 seconds to 1024 seconds. The TPL5100 can also monitor a battery management IC via a power-good digital input and power on the µC only when a good supply voltage is present. The device is packaged in a 10-pin VSSOP package.

TI nano timers address a wide range of battery-powered and energy harvesting systems, including smoke alarms, CO alarms, intelligent price tags, occupancy sensors, security cameras, door locks, wireless sensor nodes and data loggers. In these applications, the main system is in sleep mode or power-down mode most of the time, which makes the power consumption of the MCU internal timer significant.
