34063A
DC-TO-DC CONVERTER CONTROL CIRCUITS
The 34063A is a monolithic control circuit containing the primary functions required for DC-to-DC converters.
These devices consist of an internal temperature compensated reference, comparator, controlled duty cycle
oscillator with an active current limit circuit, driver and high current output switch. This series was specifically
designed to be incorporated in Step-Down and Step-Up and Voltage-Inverting applications with a minimum number
of external components.

NOTES:
1. Maximum package power dissipation limits must be observed.
2.
Low duty cycle pulse techniques are used during test to maintain Junction temperature as close to ambient
temperature as possible
3.
If the output switch is driven into hard saturation (non Darlington configuration) at low switch currents (< 300 mA) and
high driver
currents (>30 mA), it may take up to 2.0
µs
to come out of saturation This condition will shorten the off' time
at frequencies > 30 kHz, and is magnified at high temperatures This condition does not occur with a Darlington configuration,
since the output switch cannot
saturate If a non Darlington configuration is used, the following output drive condition is
recommended
