The ADP3088 is a high frequency, nonsynchronous PWM step-
down dc-to-dc regulator with an integrated 1 A power switch
in a space-saving MSOP-8 package. It provides high efficiency
and excellent dynamic response and is very simple to use.

The ADP3088’s 1 MHz switching frequency allows for small,
inexpensive external components, and the current mode control
loop is simple to compensate and eases noise filtering. The device
operates in PWM current mode under heavy loads and saves
energy at lighter loads by switching automatically into power
saving mode. Soft start is integrated completely on-chip, as is
the cycle-by-cycle current limit.

Figure 1. Typical Application
Capable of operating from 2.5 V to 11 V input, the ADP3088 is
ideal for many applications, including portable, battery-powered
applications where local point-of-use power regulation is
required. Supporting output voltages down to 1.25 V, the
ADP3088 is ideal for generating low voltage rails, providing
the optimal solution in its class for delivering power efficiently,
responsively, and simply with a minimal printed circuit board area.
The device is specified over the industrial temperature range of
–40∞C to +85∞C.
