GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AIC1596 series are step-down monolithic
PWM converters for delivering 3A at fixed
voltages of 3.3V, 5.0V, 12V and using an
external divider to adjust output voltage from
1.2V to 30V with excellent line and load
regulation.
Switching frequency up to 150KHz is achievable
thus allowing smaller-sized filter components.
Internal current limit and thermal shutdown
circuits provide protection from overloads. It
also provides output overvoltage and short
protection under fault conditions. The internal
precise
reference
combined
with
voltage
feedback loop provides optimum output voltage
accuracy and fast load transient response.
3A Guaranteed Output Load Current
APPLICATIONS

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
PIN 1: IN
Supply voltage input for the IC
switching regulator. A suitable input
bypass capacitor must be present
at this pin to minimize voltage
transients and to supply the
switching currents needed by the
regulator.
Internal switch. The voltage at this
pin switches between (V
IN
-V
SAT
)
and approximately -0.5V, with a
duty cycle
of
approximately
V
OUT
/V
IN
.
Ground requires a short, low noise
connection to ensure good load
regulation.
PIN 4: FB
Feedback input for fixed-output or
adjustable-output version. Connect
directly to output for fixed operation
version or to a resistor divider for
adjustable operation versions.
PIN 2: OUT
PIN 3: GND
PIN 5:
ON / OFF
Allows the switching regulator
circuit to be shutdown using logic
level signals thus dropping the total
input
supply
current
to
approximately 80µA. Drive it high
to disable the reference, control
circuitry and internal switches.
Drive low or connect to GND for
normal operation.
