Description
The FAN5358 is a step-down switching voltage regulator that
delivers a fixed output from an input voltage supply of 2.7V to
5.5V. Using a proprietary architecture with synchronous
rectification, the device is capable of delivering 500mA and
maintaining a very high efficiency of over 80% at load currents
as low as 1mA. The regulator operates at a nominal frequency
of 2MHz, which reduces the value of the external components
to as low as 2.2μH for the output inductor and 4.7µF for the
output capacitor.
At moderate and light loads, pulse frequency modulation is
used to operate the device in power-save mode with a typical
quiescent current of 25µA. Even with such a low quiescent
current, the part exhibits excellent transient response during
large load swings. In shutdown mode, the supply current
drops below 1µA, reducing power consumption.
FAN5358 is available in a 6-lead SC70 package.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses exceeding the absolute maximum ratings may damage the device. The device may not function or be operable above
the recommended operating conditions and stressing the parts to these levels is not recommended. In addition, extended
exposure to stresses above the recommended operating conditions may affect device reliability. The absolute maximum ratings
are stress ratings only.
