General Description
The APW7037 series are designed to provide a low cost
synchronous Buck regulator for on-board DC to DC con-
verter applications. The APW7037 series together with
dual N-channel MOSFETs such as APM7313, provide a
low cost solution for such applications. Each device fea-
tures an internal 200/400kHz oscillator, Power-On-Reset
(POR) for both VCC and VC supplies, an external pro-
grammable soft-start function as well as output under-
voltage detection that latches off the device when an out-
put short is detected.

Note : ANPEC lead-free products contain molding compounds/die attach materials and 100% matte tin plate termination finish;
which are fully compliant with RoHS. ANPEC lead-free products meet or exceed the lead-free requirements of IPC/JEDEC J-STD-
020C for MSL classification at lead-free peak reflow temperature. ANPEC defines “Green” to mean lead-free (RoHS compliant) and
halogen free (Br or Cl does not exceed 900ppm by weight in homogeneous material and total of Br and Cl does not exceed
1500ppm by weight).

APW7037A/B
Function Pin Description
FB (Pin 1)
Connect this pin to the output (VOUT) of the PWM con-
verter via an external resistor divider to provide a voltage
feedback path for the converter. The output voltage set by
the resistor divider is determined using the following for-
mula :
SS (Pin 8)
Connect a capacitor from this pin to ground.This capacitor,
along with an internal 20µA current source, sets the soft-
start interval of the PWM converter and prevents the out-
puts from overshoot as well as limits the input current.
Pull this pin below 0.5V can shutdown the converter.

where ROUT is the resistor connected from VOUT to FB
, and RGND is the resistor connected from FB to ground.
The voltage at this pin is also monitored for Under-Volt-
age protection.
VCC (Pin 2)
Connect this pin to input voltage from 5V to 20V. This pin
provides the bias for the control circuitry and the low-side
power MOSFET driver (LDRV). The voltage at this pin is
monitored for Power-On-Reset (POR) purpose.
LDRV (Pin 3)
Connect this pin to the gate of the low-side power
MOSFET. This pin provides the gate drive for the MOSFET.
GND (Pin 4)
Signal and power ground for the IC. All voltage levels are
measured with respect to this pin.
HDRV (Pin 5)
Connect this pin to the gate of the high-side power
MOSFET. This pin provides the gate drive for the
MOSFET.
VC (Pin 6)
This pin provides bias voltage to the high-side MOSFET
driver. A bootstrap circuit may be used to pump a boot
voltage for enforcing the driving capability of the gate driver
and improving the performance of the MOSFET.
COMP (Pin 7)
This pin is the output of the error amplifier. Add an exter-
nal resistor-capacitor network to provide a loop compen-
sation for the PWM converter.
