Description
T
he ILC6376/77 is a 95% efficient, 300kHz step-down DC-
DC converter in an SO-8 package; capable of delivering
500mA output current. The device is also capable of driving
an external FET for higher output current applications.
The ILC6376/77 uses a unique p-channel architecture with
built-in charge pump to maintain low on-resistance, even at
low input voltages. The ILC6376 operates in PWM mode
with 300kHz switching frequency. The ILC6377 does the
same at high and medium load currents. When the load
current drops and the device hits approximately 25% duty
cycle, ILC6377 automatically switches over to PFM or pulse
skipping mode. PFM (pulse frequency modulation) mode of
operation extends efficiency at light loads.
Start-up is controlled via an external soft-start capacitor. The
device will automatically re-enter start-up mode when an
output current overload condition is sensed; thus providing
automatic short-circuit protection. Voltage lockout prevents
faulty operation below the minimum operating voltage level.
In shutdown, the ILC6376/77 consumes only 1.5µA current.
The ILC6376/77SOXX offers fixed 3.3V or 5V output while
ILC6376/77SOADJ allows adjustable output. Both versions
of ILC6376/77 are available in an SO-8 surface mount
package.
