EP53A8LQI/EP53A8HQI 1A PowerSoC
Synchronous Buck Regulator
with Integrated Inductor
Description
The EP53A8LQI and EP53A8HQI are a 1000mA
PowerSoC. The device integrates MOSFET
switches, control, compensation, and the
Inductor in an advanced 3mm x 3mm QFN
Package.
Integrated inductor ensures the complete power
solution is fully characterized with the inductor
carefully
matched
to
the
silicon
and
compensation network. It enables a tiny solution
footprint, low output ripple, low part-count, and
high reliability, while maintaining high efficiency.
The complete solution can be implemented in as
little as 21mm
2
.
The EP53A8xQI uses a 3-pin VID to easily select
the output voltage setting.
Output voltage
settings are available in 2 optimized ranges
providing coverage for typical V
OUT
settings.
The VID pins can be changed on the fly for fast
dynamic voltage scaling. EP53A8LQI further has
the option to use an external voltage divider.

FUNCTION
NO CONNECT – These pins are internally connected to the common switching node of the
internal MOSFETs. NC (SW) pins are not to be electrically connected to any external signal,
ground, or voltage. However, they must be soldered to the PCB. Failure to follow this guideline
may result in part malfunction or damage to the device.
Power ground. Connect this pin to the ground electrode of the Input and output filter
capacitors.
EP53A8LQI: Feed back pin for external divider option.
EP53A8HQI: No Connect
Sense pin for preset output voltages. Refer to application section for proper configuration.
Analog ground. This is the quiet ground for the internal control circuitry, and the ground return
for external feedback voltage divider
Regulated Output Voltage. Refer to application section for proper layout and decoupling.
Output voltage select. VS2 = pin 9, VS1 = pin 10, VS0 = pin 11.
EP53A8LQI: Selects one of seven preset output voltages or an external resistor divider.
EP53A8HQI: Selects one of eight preset output voltages.
(Refer to section on output voltage select for more details.)
Output Enable. Enable = logic high; Disable = logic low
Input power supply for the controller circuitry. Connect to PVIN through a 100 Ohm resistor.
Input Voltage for the MOSFET switches.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
CAUTION:
Absolute Maximum ratings are stress ratings only. Functional operation beyond the recommended operating
conditions is not implied. Stress beyond the absolute maximum ratings may impair device life. Exposure to absolute
maximum rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
