Description
T h e PA M 2 3 1 0 i s a 2 A s t e p - d o w n D C - D C
converter. At heavy load, the constant-frequency
PWM control performs excellent stability and
transient response. No external compensation
components are required
.
The PAM2310 supports a range of input voltages
from 2.7V to 5.5V, allowing the use of a single
L i + /L i - p o l y m e r c e l l , m u l ti p l e A l k a l i n e /N i M H
cell,and other standard power sources. The
output voltage is adjustable from 0.6V to the input
voltage. The PAM2310 employs internal power
switch and synchronous rectifier to minimize
external part count and realize high efficiency.
During shutdown, the input is disconnected from
the output and the shutdown current is less than
1
μ
A. Other key features include over-temperature
and short circuit protection, and under-voltage
lockout to prevent deep battery discharge.
The PAM2310 delivers 2A maximum output
current while consuming only 42
μ
A of no-load
quiescent current. Ultra-low RDS(ON) integrated
MOSFETs and 100% duty cycle operation make
the PAM2310 an ideal choice for high output
voltage, high current applications which require a
low dropout threshold.
The PAM2310 is available in SOP-8 package.
