AP3429/A
1.0MHZ, 2A STEP-DOWN DC-DC BUCK CONVERTER
Description
The AP3429/A is a 2A step-down DC-DC converter. At heavy load,
the constant frequency PWM control performs excellent stability and
transient response. No external compensation components are
required.

The AP3429/A supports a range of input voltages from 2.7V to 5.5V,
allowing the use of a single Li+/Li- polymer cell, multiple
Alkaline/NiMH cell, and other standard power sources. The output
voltage is adjustable from 0.6V to the input voltage. The AP3429/A
employs internal power switch and synchronous rectifier to minimize
external part count and realize high efficiency. During shutdown, the
input is disconnected from the output and the shutdown current is less
than 1μA. Other key features include over-temperature and short
circuit protection, and under-voltage lockout to prevent deep battery
discharge.
The AP3429/A delivers 2A maximum output current while consuming
only 90μA of no-load quiescent current. Ultra-low R
DS(ON)
integrated
MOSFETs and 100% duty cycle operation make the AP3429/A an
ideal choice for high output voltage, high current applications which
require a low dropout threshold.
The AP3429/A is available in TSOT25 package.
