SwitchReg
General Description
Features
The AAT1149 SwitchReg is a 3.0MHz step-down
converter with an input voltage range of 2.7V to
5.5V and output voltage as low as 1.0V. It is opti-
mized to react quickly to load variations and oper-
ate with a tiny 0603 inductor that is only 1mm tall.

SC70JW-8 Package
The AAT1149 output voltage is programmable via
external feedback resistors. It can deliver 400mA of
load current while maintaining a low 45μA no load
quiescent current. The 3.0MHz switching frequen-
cy minimizes the size of external components while
keeping switching losses low.
The AAT1149 maintains high efficiency throughout
the operating range, which is critical for portable
applications.
Temperature Range: -40°C to +85°C
The AAT1149 is available in a Pb-free, space-saving
2.0x2.1mm SC70JW-8 package and is rated over
the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
