NCP1593A, NCP1593B
1 MHz, 3 A Synchronous
Buck Regulator
The NCP1593 is a fixed 1 MHz, high−output−current, synchronous
PWM converter that integrates a low−resistance, high−side P−channel
MOSFET and a low−side N−channel MOSFET. The NCP1593 utilizes
internally compensated current mode control to provide good transient
response, ease of implementation and excellent loop stability. It
regulates input voltages from 4.0 V to 5.5 V down to an output voltage
as low as 0.6 V and is able to supply up to 3 A of load current.
The NCP1593 includes an internally fixed switching frequency
(F
SW
), and an internal soft−start to limit inrush current. Other features
include cycle−by−cycle current limiting, 100% duty cycle operation,
short− circuit protection, power saving mode and thermal shutdown.

Description
No connect pin for NCP1593A. The user may ground this pin or leave it floating. / LX pin for NCP1593B
The drains of the internal MOSFETs. The output inductor should be connected to these pins.
Open drain output from the Power Good logic. When the FB voltage is within regulation, this is a high
impedance pin. Otherwise it is pulled low.
Logic input to enable the part. Logic high to turn on the part and a logic low to shut off the part. An intern-
al pullup forces the part into an enable state when no external bias is present on the pin.
Feedback input pin of the Error Amplifier. Connect a resistor divider from the converter’s output voltage
to this pin to set the converter’s regulated voltage.
An external capacitor on this pin sets the soft−start ramp time. Leaving this pin open sets the soft−start
time at 500
ms.
For NCP1593B this pin is a no connect and should be left floating.
Input supply pin for internal bias circuitry. Connect a 0.1
mF
ceramic bypass capacitor to this pin. Directly
connect the V
CC
pin to the V
CCP
pin on the board.
Input for the power stage
Exposed pad of the package provides both electrical contact to the ground and good thermal contact to
the PCB. This pad must be soldered to the PCB for proper operation.
