High Efficiency: up to 95%
Output Current: 650mA
Input Voltage Range: 2.5V to 5.5V
Fixed 1.1MHz Frequency
The AP3406 is a 1.1MHz fixed frequency, current
mode, PWM synchronous buck (step-down) DC-DC
converter, capable of driving a 650mA load with high
efficiency, excellent line and load regulation. The
device integrates a main switch and a synchronous
switch without an external Schottky diode. It is ideal
for powering portable equipment that runs from a
single Li-ion battery.
Current Mode Control
100% Duty Cycle in Dropout
Built-in Short Circuit Protection
Built-in Thermal Shutdown Function
Built-in Current Limit Function
Shutdown Current: <1μA
A standard series of inductors are available from
several different manufacturers optimized for use
with the AP3406. This feature greatly simplifies the
design of switch-mode power supplies.
Applications
