FROM 50kHz TO 1MHz The output voltage is adjustable down to 0.9V SOFT START AND INHIBIT higher voltages can be obtained with an external PACKAGES: SO-16 & HTSSOP16 voltage divider. High peak current gate drivers provide for fast switch- 2 APPLICATIONS ing to the external power section, and the output SUPPLY FOR MEMORIES AND TERMI- current can be in excess of 20A. NATIONS The device assures protections against load overcur- COMPUTER ADD-ON CARDS rent and overvoltage. An internal crowbar is also pro- LOW VOLTAGE DISTRIBUTED DC-DC vided turning on the low side mosfet as long as the MAG-AMP REPLACEMENT over-voltage is detected. In case of over-current de- tection, the soft start capacitor is discharged and the 3 DESCRIPTION system works in HICCUP mode. The device is a pwm controller for high performance Figure 2.
