Low Input Voltage, High Efficiency, 2.5A Integrated
FET Synchronous Step down DC/DC Regulator
POWER MANAGEMENT
Description
The SC4620 is a highly integrated synchronous step-down
DC/DC regulator designed for low input voltage range of
2.3V to 5.5 Volts. It can deliver 2.5A continuous output
current with the output voltage as low as 0.5 Volts. The
internal low R
DS(ON)
synchronous power switches eliminate
the need for external Schottky diode while delivering
overall converter efficiency up to 95%.
A power good pin is available to monitor the output voltage
status. Operating frequency is adjustable from 200 kHz
to 2MHz with a single resistor and it can be synchronized
to an external clock.
The SC4620 offers adjustable current limit, soft start and
over temperature protection to safeguard the device under
extreme operating conditions. The soft start provides a
controlled output voltage ramp up at startup. When a
logic low is applied to the Enable pin, the SC4620 enters
the shutdown mode and it consumes less than 1µA of
current.
The SC4620 is available in 4x4 MLPQ-20 and it is rated
over -40°C to +85°C ambient temperature range.
