DESCRIPTION
The TPS65167 offers a compact power supply
solution to provide all voltages required by a LCD
panel for large size monitor and TV panel
applications running from a 12-V supply rail.
The device generates all 3 voltage rails for the TFT
LCD bias (Vs, VGL and VGH). In addition to that it
includes a step-down converter and a LDO controller
to provide two logic voltage rails. The device
incorporates a high voltage switch that can be
controlled by a logic signal from the external timing
controller (TCON). This function allows gate voltage
shaping for VGH. The device also features a high
voltage stress test where the output voltage of VGH
is set to typically 30 V and the output voltage of Vs is
programmable to any higher voltage. The high
voltage stress test is enabled by pulling the HVS pin
high. The device consists of a boost converter to
provide the source voltage Vs operating at a fixed
switching frequency of 750 kHz. A fully integrated
positive charge pump, switching automatically
between doubler and tripler mode provides an
adjustable regulated TFT gate on voltage VGH. A
negative charge pump driver provides adjustable
regulated output voltages VGL. To minimize external
components the charge pumps for VGH and VGL
operate at a fixed switching frequency of 1.5 MHz.
The device includes safety features like overvoltage
protection of the boost converter, short-circuit
protection of VGH and VGL as well as thermal
shutdown.

Regulator REGOUT and Reference REF

The 4.8 V regulator REGOUT and reference REF is always on as long as the input voltage is above the device
undervoltage lockout of typically 5.2 V. To ensure a correct start-up, the reference voltage REF needs to come
up faster than the regulator voltage REGOUT. In other words as REF = 1.213 V then REGOUT must remain
< 4.25 V to assure proper start-up (Figure 22).

Figure 22. Power-up Sequencing (REGOUT vs VREF)

This is implemented by connecting a 4.7 F bypass capacitor to REGOUT and a 100 nF bypass capacitor to the
REF pin. If the bypass capacitor on the REF pin is selected larger than 100 nF, then the bypass capacitor on
REGOUT needs to be increased accordingly. Refer to Table 2 to properly select a bypass capacitor.
The REF pin provides a reference output which is used to regulate the negative charge pump. In order to have a
stable reference voltage, a 100 nF bypass capacitor is required, which needs to be connected directly from REF
to GND (pin 37) for best noise immunity. The reference output has a current capability of 30 A which must not
be exceeded. Therefore, the feedback resistor value from FBN to REF must not be smaller than 40 k.

Temperature Sensor Output TEMP

The device provides a temperature sensor output measuring the actual chip temperature. This pin has an analog
output capable of driving 200 A. The TEMP pin requires a 1 nF output capacitor to provide a stable output
voltage. At 85C, the typical output voltage is 2.037 V with a temperature coefficient of 5.9 mV/C. See Figure 16
for the output characteristic of the temperature output.
Thermal Shutdown
A thermal shutdown is implemented to prevent damages due to excessive die temperatures. Once the thermal
shutdown is exceeded, the device enters shutdown. The device can be enabled again by cycling the EN pin or
input voltage to ground.
Undervoltage Lockout
To avoid mis-operation of the device at low input voltages an undervoltage lockout is included which shuts down
the device at voltages lower than 5.2 V.
Short circuit protection (all outputs)

All the outputs have a short circuit protection implemented.
15
TPS65167
TPS65167A
www.ti.com
Boost converter Vs: A short circuit is detected when the voltage on SUP, that is connected to the output falls
typically below 4.5V. Then the isolation switch is opened by pulling GD high. After a delay of typically 60mS the
isolation switch is closed again and restarts the output automatically. See Figure 6.
Buck converter Vlogic: During a short circuit even the output current is typically limited to the buck converter
switch current limit of 3.5A and the switching frequency is reduced.
Negative charge pump VGL: As the output falls below the power good limit threshold the output current is limited
to the softstart current limit of the negative charge pump.
Positive charge pump output VGH: As the output POUT falls below its power good threshold then the internal
gate voltage shaping switch opens disconnecting the load from POUT. As the output POUT exceeds the power
good threshold again the internal switch of the gate voltage shaping block is closed again. The VGH output
cycles as long as the short circuit event remains.
LDO controller VAUX: During a short circuit event the maximum output current is given by the gain of the
external transistor. Depending on the selected output transistor the power dissipation of the external transistor
might be exceeded during a short circuit event. Using a base series resistor protects the IC during a short circuit
event.
Start-Up Sequencing
The device has an adjustable start-up sequencing to provide correct sequencing as required by LCD. When the
input voltage exceeds the undervoltage lockout threshold, then the step-down converter and LDO controller
start-up at the same time. As the enable signal (EN) goes high, the negative charge pump starts up followed by
the boost converter Vs starting at the same time as the positive charge pump. See the typical curves shown in
Figure 18, Figure 19, and Figure 23.

The enable is a dual function pin. It can be used as a standard enable pin that enables the device once it is
pulled high by a logic signal or connected to the REGOUT pin.
The enable can not be connected directly to Vin due to its maximum voltage rating!
If no logic control signal is available, it is also possible to connect a capacitor to this pin to set the delay time td
as shown in Figure 23 and Figure 19.

The capacitor connected to GDLY sets the delay time from the point when the boost converter Vs reaches its
nominal value to the enable of the gate voltage shaping block.
Setting the Delay Times GDLY, EN delay

Connecting an external capacitor to the GDLY and EN pin sets the delay time. To set the delay time, the external
capacitor is charged with a constant current source of typically 5 A. The delay time is terminated when the
capacitor voltage has reached the threshold voltage of Vth = 1.230 V. The external delay capacitor is calculated:

Boost Converter
The main boost converter operates in Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) and at a fixed switching frequency of 750
kHz The converter uses a unique fast response, voltage-mode controller scheme with feed-forward input voltage
. This achieves excellent line and load regulation (0.2% A load regulation typical) and allows the use of small
external components. To add higher flexibility to the selection of external component values the device uses
external loop compensation. Although the boost converter looks like a non-synchronous boost converter topology
operating in discontinuous conduction mode at light load, the device will maintain continuous conduction even at
light load currents. This is achieved with a novel architecture using an external Schottky diode with an integrated
MOSFET in parallel connected between SW and SUP. See the Functional Block Diagram. The intention of this
MOSFET is to allow the current to go below ground that occurs at light load conditions. For this purpose, a small
integrated P-Channel MOSFET with typically 10 RDS(on) is sufficient. When the inductor current is positive, the
external Schottky diode with the lower forward voltage will carry the current. This causes the converter to operate
with a fixed frequency in continuous conduction mode over the entire load current range. This avoids the ringing
on the switch pin as seen with standard non-synchronous boost converter, and allows a simpler compensation
for the boost converter.

The main boost converter has an internal softstart to prevent high inrush current during start-up. The device
incorporates a digital softstart increasing the current limit in digital current limit steps. See Figure 2 for the typical
softstart timing.
High Voltage Stress Test (Boost converter and positive charge pump)
The TPS65167 and TPS65167A incorporates a high voltage stress test where the output voltage of the boost
converter Vs and the positive charge pump POUT is set to a higher voltage compared to the nominal
programmed output voltage. The High Voltage Stress test is enabled by pulling the HVS pin to high. With HVS =
high, the voltage on POUT, respectively VGH, remains unchanged with the TPS65167A and the TPS65167
regulates to a fixed output voltage of 30 V. The boost converter Vs is programmed to a higher voltage
determined by the resistor connected to RHVS. With HVS = high the RHVS pin is pulled to GND which sets the
voltage for the boost converter during the High Voltage Stress Test. The output voltage for the boost converter
during high voltage stress test is calculated as:

Overvoltage Protection
The main boost converter has an overvoltage protection of the main switch M1 if the feedback pin (FB) is floating
or shorted to GND causing the output voltage to rise. In such an event, the output voltage is monitored with the
overvoltage protection comparator on the SUP pin. As soon as the comparator trips at typically at 20 V then the
boost converter stops switching. The output voltage will fall below the overvoltage threshold and the converter
continues to operate. See Figure 4.
Note: During high voltage stress test the overvoltage protection is disabled.
Input Capacitor Selection VINB, SUP, SUPN, AVIN, Inductor Input Terminal
For good input voltage filtering, low ESR ceramic capacitors are recommended. The TPS65167 has an analog
input AVIN as well as a power supply input SUP powering all the internal rails. A 1-F bypass capacitor is
required as close as possible from AVIN to GND as well as from SUP to GND. The SUPN pin needs to be
bypassed with a 470-nF capacitor. Depending on the overall load current two or three 22-F input capacitors are
required. For better input voltage filtering, the input capacitor values can be increased. To reduce the power
losses across the external isolation switch a filter capacitance at the input terminal of the inductor is required. To
minimize possible audible noise problems, two 10-F capacitors in parallel are recommended. More capacitance
will further reduce the ripple current across the isolation switch. See Table 3 and the typical applications for input
capacitor recommendations.

Boost Converter Design Procedure

The first step in the design procedure is to verify whether the maximum possible output current of the boost
converter supports the specific application requirements. To simplify the calculation, the fastest approach is to
estimate the converter efficiency by taking the efficiency numbers from the provided efficiency curves or to use a
worst case assumption for the expected efficiency, e.g., 80%. With the efficiency number it is possible to
calculate the steady state values of the application.

TPS65167

The peak switch current is the steady state peak switch current the integrated switch, inductor and external
Schottky diode has to be able to handle. The calculation must be done for the minimum input voltage where the
peak switch current is highest. Note that the maximum output power of the device is limited by the power
dissipation of the package.
Inductor Selection (Boost Converter)
The TPS65167 typically operates with a 10-H inductor. Main parameter for the inductor selection is the
saturation current of the inductor which should be higher than the peak switch current as calculated above with
additional margin to cover for heavy load transients. The alternative more conservative approach is to choose the
inductor with saturation current at least as high as the minimum switch current limit of 3.5 A. The second
important parameter is the inductor dc resistance. The lower the dc resistance the higher the efficiency of the
converter. The converter efficiency can vary between 2% to 10% when choosing different inductors. Possible
inductors are shown in Table 4.

For best output voltage filtering, a low ESR output capacitor is recommended. Ceramic capacitors have a low
ESR value and work best with the TPS65167. Three 22-F or six 10-F ceramic output capacitors in parallel are
sufficient for most applications. More capacitors can be added to improve the load transient regulation. See

Rectifier Diode Selection (Boost Converter)

To achieve high efficiency, a Schottky diode should be used. The reverse voltage rating should be higher than
the maximum output voltage of the converter. The current rating for the Schottky diode is calculated as the off
time of the converter times the peak switch current of the application. The minimum switch current of the
converter can be used as a worst case calculation.

Usually a Schottky diode with 2 A maximum average rectified forward current rating is sufficient for most of the
applications. Secondly, the Schottky rectifier has to be able to dissipate the power. The dissipated power is the
average rectified forward current times the diode forward voltage.

Compensation (COMP)
The regulator loop can be compensated by adjusting the external components connected to the COMP pin. The
COMP pin is the output of the internal transconductance error amplifier. A single capacitor connected to this pin
sets the low frequency gain. A 22-nF capacitor is sufficient for most of the applications. Adding a series resistor
sets an additional zero and increases the high frequency gain. The formula below calculates at what frequency
the resistor will increase the high frequency gain.

Lower input voltages require a higher gain and; therefore, a lower compensation capacitor value. See the typical
applications for the appropriate component selection.
Gate Drive Pin (GD) and Isolation Switch Selection

The external isolation switch disconnects the output of the boost converter once the device is turned off. The
external isolation switch also provides a short-circuit protection of Vs by turning off the switch in case of a
short-circuit. The Gate Drive (GD) allows control of an external isolation MOSFET switch. GD pin is pulled low
when the input voltage is above the undervoltage lockout threshold (UVLO) and when enable (EN) is high. The
gate drive has an internal pull up resistor to AVIN of typically 5 k. In order to minimize inrush current during
start-up, the gate drive pin is pulled low by an internal 10A current sink. To further reduce this inrush current,
typically a 1-nF capacitor can be connected from pin GD to the boost converter inductor. A standard P-Channel
MOSFET with a current rating close to the minimum boost converter switch current limit of 3.5 A is sufficient.
Table 7 shows two examples coming in a small SOT23 package. The worst case power dissipation of the
isolation switch is calculated as the minimum switch current limit RDS(on) of the MOSFET. A standard SOT23
package or similar is able to provide sufficient power dissipation.

Step-Down Converter
The non-synchronous step-down converter operates at a fixed switching frequency using a fast response voltage
mode topology withfeed-forward input voltage. This topology allows simple internal compensation and it is
designed to operate with ceramic output capacitors. The converter drives an internal 2.8-A N-Channel MOSFET
switch. The MOSFET driver is referenced to the switch pin SWB. The N-Channel MOSFET requires a gate drive
voltage higher than the switch pin to turn the N-Channel MOSFET on. This is accomplished by a boost strap gate
drive circuit running of the step-down converter switch pin. When the switch pin SWB is at ground, the boot strap
capacitor is charged to 8 V. This way the N-Channel Gate drive voltage is typically around 8 V.

Soft-start (Step-Down Converter)
To avoid high inrush current during start-up, an internal soft-start is implemented. When the step-down converter
is enabled, its reference voltage slowly rises from zero to its power good threshold of typically 90% of Vref. When
the reference voltage reaches this power good threshold, the error amplifier is released to its normal operation
with its normal duty cycle. To further limit the inrush current during soft-start, the converter frequency is set to
1/4th of the switching frequency fs and th of fs determined by the comparator that monitors the feedback voltage.
See the internal block diagram. The softstart is typically completed within 1 ms.
Setting the Output Voltage, Adjustable or Fixed 3.3V (step-down converter)
The device supports a fixed 3.3-V output voltage when the feedback FBB is connected to GND. When using the
external voltage divider any other output voltage can be programmed.
To set the adjustable output voltage of the step-down converter, use an external voltage divider to set the output
voltage. The output voltage is calculated as:
V out + 1.213 V
R9
1 ) R10
(7)
with R10 1.2 k and internal reference voltage V(ref)typ = 1.213 V

At load currents < 1 mA, the device operates in discontinuous conduction mode. When the load current is
reduced to zero, the output voltage rises slightly above the nominal output voltage. At zero load current, the
device skips clock cycles but does not completely stops switching thus the output voltage sits slightly above the
nominal output voltage. Therefore, the lower feedback resistor is selected to be around 1.2 k to have always
around 1 mA minimum load current.

Inductor Selection (step-down converter)
The TPS65167 operates typically with a 10-H inductor value. For high efficiencies, the inductor should have a
low dc resistance to minimize conduction losses. This needs to be considered when selecting the appropriate
inductor. To avoid saturation of the inductor, the inductor should be rated at least for the maximum output current
of the converter plus the inductor ripple current that will be calculated as:

Rectifier Diode Selection (step-down converter)

To achieve high efficiency, a Schottky diode should be used. The reverse voltage rating should be higher than

rectified forward current times the diode forward voltage.

The positive charge pump is a fully integrated charge pump switching automatically its gain between doubler and
tripler mode. As shown in Figure 26, the input voltage of the positive charge pump is the SUP pin, that is
connected to the output of the main boost converter Vs.

The charge pump requires two 330 nF flying capacitors and a 1 F output capacitance for stable operation. The
positive charge pump also supports a high voltage stress test by pulling the HVS pin high. This programs the
output voltage to a fixed output voltage of 30 V (TPS65167 only) by using a internal voltage divider. The
TPS65167A has this function disabled. In normal operation the HVS pin is pulled low and the output voltage is
programmed with the external voltage divider.

To minimize noise and leakage current sensitivity, keeping the lower feedback divider resistor R5 in the 20 k
range is recommended. A 100 pF feed-forward capacitor across the upper feedback resistor R4 is typically
required. For the capacitor selection, see Table 11.

High Voltage Switch Control (Gate Voltage Shaping)

The TPS65167 has a high voltage switch integrated to provide gate voltage modulation of VGH. If this feature is
not required, then the CTRL pin has to be pulled high or connected to VIN. When the device is disabled or the
input voltage is below the undervoltage lockout (UVLO), then both switches Q4 and Q5 are off, and VGH is
discharge by a 1-k resistor over Q8, as shown in Figure 27.

Figure 27. High Voltage Switch (Gate Voltage Shaping) Block TPS65167
To implement gate voltage shaping, the control signal from the LCD timing controller (TCON) is connected to
CTRL. The CTRL pin is activated once the device is enabled, the input voltage is above the under voltage
lockout, all the output voltages (Vs, VGL, VGH) are in regulation and the delay time set by the GDLY pin passed
by. As soon as one of the outputs is pulled below its Power Good level, Q4 and Q5 are turned off, and VGH is
discharged via a 1-k resistor over Q8.
25
TPS65167
TPS65167A
www.ti.com
With CTRL=high, Q4 is turned on, and the charge pump output voltage is present at VGH. When the CTRL pin is
pulled low, then Q4 is turned off, and Q5 is turned on discharging VGH. The slope and time for discharging VGH
is determined by the LC Display capacitance and the termination on DRN. It is not required or recommended to
connect an additional output capacitor on VGH. There are three options available to terminate the DRN pin. The
chosen solution depends mainly on the LC Display capacitance and required overall converter efficiency.

Figure 28. High Voltage Switch (Gate Voltage Shaping) Timing Diagram
Option 1 in Figure 27 discharges VGH to Vs. The lower the resistor the faster the discharge.
Option 3 in Figure 27 constantly draws current from Vs due to the voltage divider connected to Vs. The
advantage of this solution is that the low level voltage VL is given by the voltage divider assuming the feedback
resistor values are small and allow to discharge the LC Display capacitance during the time, toff. Therefore, the
solution is not recommended for large display panels since the feedback divider resistors needs to be selected
too low which draws too much current from Vs.
Option 2 does not draw any current from Vs and; therefore, is better in terms of converter efficiency. The voltage
level VL where VGH is discharge to is determined by the LC Display capacitance, the resistor connected to DRN
and the off time, toff. The lower the resistor value connected to DRN the lower the discharge voltage level VL.
Adding any additional output capacitance to VGH is not recommend. If more capacitance is required, it needs to
be added to POUT instead.
High Voltage Stress Test (positive charge pump)

The TPS65167 incorporates a high voltage stress test where the output voltage of the boost converter Vs and
the positive charge pump POUT are set to a higher output voltage compared to the nominal programmed output
voltage. The High Voltage Stress test is enabled by pulling HVS pin to high. This sets POUT, respectively VGH
to 30 V, and the output voltage of the boost converter Vs is programmed to a higher voltage determined by the
resistor connected to RHVS. With HVS = high, the RHVS pin is pulled to GND which sets the voltage for the
boost converter during High Voltage Stress.
The TPS65167A has the high voltage stress test for the positive charge pump POUT disabled. The high voltage
stress test function is only enabled for the boost converter Vs.
Negative Charge Pump Driver

The negative charge pump provides a regulated output voltage set by the external resistor divider. The negative
charge pump inverts the input voltage applied to the SUPN pin and regulates it to the programmed voltage.

Since the reference output driver current should typically not exceed 30 A, the lower feedback resistor value R8
should be in a range of 40 k to 120 k. The negative charge pump requires two external Schottky diodes. The
peak current rating of the Schottky diode has to be twice the load current of the output. For the external
component selection refer to Table 12.
For a 20-mA output current, the dual Schottky diode BAV99 or BAT54 is recommended.

LDO Controller Generating Vaux

The TPS65167 has a LDO controller using an external pass transistor. The input of the LDO controller can be
the 12-V power supply input or the output of the 3.3-V logic rail, as generated by the step-down converter. The
LDO controller is connected to the 3.3-V rail in order to minimize power losses across the external pass
transistor.

The output voltage of the LDO controller can be set with the resistor divider connected to the output of the LDO

Input Capacitor and Output Capacitor Selection, LDO Controller

For input voltage filtering, a 1-F input capacitor is sufficient. The output requires a least one 10-F output
capacitor for stability for load currents up to 300-mA. For load currents larger 300 mA, one 22-F output
capacitor is required. See Table 13 for the capacitor selection.

Base and Emitter Base Resistor Selection

A 1-k resistor (R13) is required across the emitter base of the external transistor. To limit the current into the
base during a short-circuit event, a 100- base resistor (R4) is required when the input is connected to the 3.3-V
rail. If the input is connected to the 12-V rail, then a 1-k (R4) resistor is required. R4 is optional and protects the
TPS65167 in case of a short-circuit event at the output of the LDO controller.
28
TPS65167
TPS65167A

External Transistor Selection

The external transistor is selected based on the required output current and collector saturation voltage. The
maximum collector saturation voltage is only important as the output voltage is close to the input voltage. This is
the case for a 3.3 V to 2.5 V conversion where the collector saturation voltage of the external transistor is lower
than 800 mV. To use low cost external transistors, the TPS65167 provides a minimum base drive current of 25
mA. The other important parameter is the maximum power dissipation the external transistor must be able to
handle. The power dissipation is the output current times the input to output voltage difference. See Table 14 for
the transistor selection

Place a 470-nF bypass capacitor directly from the SUPN pin to GND.
Place the 100-nF reference capacitor directly from REF to GND close to the IC pins.
The feedback resistor for the negative charge pump between FBN and REF needs to be >40 k.

The marketing status values are defined as follows:

ACTIVE: Product device recommended for new designs.
LIFEBUY: TI has announced that the device will be discontinued, and a lifetime-buy period is in effect.
NRND: Not recommended for new designs. Device is in production to support existing customers, but TI does not recommend using this part in a new design.
PREVIEW: Device has been announced but is not in production. Samples may or may not be available.
OBSOLETE: TI has discontinued the production of the device.
(2)
Eco Plan - The planned eco-friendly classification: Pb-Free (RoHS), Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt), or Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) - please check http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the latest availability
information and additional product content details.
TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined.
Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements for all 6 substances, including the requirement that
lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes.
Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between
the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS compatible) as defined above.
Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight
in homogeneous material)
(3)
MSL, Peak Temp. - The Moisture Sensitivity Level rating according to the JEDEC industry standard classifications, and peak solder temperature.
(4)
There may be additional marking, which relates to the logo, the lot trace code information, or the environmental category on the device.
(5)
Multiple Device Markings will be inside parentheses. Only one Device Marking contained in parentheses and separated by a "~" will appear on a device. If a line is indented then it is a continuation
of the previous line and the two combined represent the entire Device Marking for that device.
(6)
Lead/Ball Finish - Orderable Devices may have multiple material finish options. Finish options are separated by a vertical ruled line. Lead/Ball Finish values may wrap to two lines if the finish
value exceeds the maximum column width.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as components) are sold subject to TIs terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TIs terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
