Features
600kHz Step-Up Switching
Regulator with 2.2A, 45V Switch
Description
The SC2308A is a 600kHz current-mode switching regulator
with an integrated low-side 2.2A power transistor. The oper-
ating supply voltage of the SC2308A ranges from that of a
single Li-ion cell to various PC board power supplies. The
internal switch is rated at 45V, making the device suitable
for high voltage boost and SEPIC applications. The SC2308A
shuts down to less than µA of supply current.
The SC2308A uses peak current-mode PWM control for ease
of loop compensation and excellent transient response.
Cycle-by-cycle current limiting lowers power transistor
dissipation. An internal soft-start timer prevents output
overshoot and limits the input current during start-up.
Thermal shutdown prevents the chip from overheating.
