Soft-start Current Limit, Enable function
Thermal Shutdown function
Built-in internal SW P-channel MOS
Low ESR output capacitor (MLCC, multi-layer ceramic
capacitor) support
Efficiency 86%
SOP-8L: Available in “Green” Molding Compound
(No Br, Sb)
AP5001 provides low-ripple power, high efficiency, and excellent
transient characteristics. The PWM control circuit is able to vary
the duty ratio linearly from 0 up to 100%. This converter also
contains an error amplifier circuit as well as a soft-start circuit that
prevents overshoot at startup. An enable function, an over
current protect function and a short circuit protect function are built
inside, and when OCP or SCP happens, the operation frequency
will be reduced from 800KHz to 50KHz. Also, an internal
compensation block is built in to minimum external component
count.

Lead Free Finish / RoHS Compliant (Note 1)
With the addition of an internal P-channel Power MOS, a coil,
capacitors, and a diode connected externally, these ICs can
function as step-down switching regulators. They serve as ideal
power supply units for portable devices when coupled with the
SOP–8L mini-package, providing such outstanding features as
low current consumption. Since this converter can accommodate
an input voltage up to 20V, it is also suitable for the operation via
an AC adapter.
