General Description
The APW7004 provides a complete control and mul-
tiple protection for a DC-DC converter optimized for
high performance microprocessor applications. It is
designed to drive two N-Channel MOSFETs in a syn-
chronous-rectified buck topology. The APW7004 in-
tegrates output voltage control, output voltage
programming, monitoring and protection functions into
a single chip IC.

• Uses MOSFET’s RDS(ON) as Current Sensing,
The APW7004 includes a 5-bit digital-to-analog con-
verter (DAC) that provides a easily adjustable and
precisely output voltage from 2.1VDC to 3.5VDC in 0.

Programmable Switching Frequency Setting
1 increments and from 1.3 VDC to 2.05 VDC in

05V increments. Any selected output voltage can be
maintained within ±1% accuracy over temperature
and line voltage variations.
• 200kHz Free-Running Oscillator
With a 200kHz free-running triangle-wave oscillator
and a error amplifier featuring a 15MHz unity-gain
bandwidth and 6V/us slew rate inside the chip,
APW7004 can implement a simple, single feedback
loop, voltage-mode control topology with high tran-
sient performance.
The APW7004 also features with multiple protections
against over-current and over-voltage conditions by
inhibiting PWM operation. The APW7004 uses the
RDS(ON) of the upper MOSFET as the current sensing
element which eliminates the demend for an extra
component. The APW7004 also monitors the output
voltage using a comparator with hysteresis that tracks
the DAC output and issues a Power Good signal once
the output is within ±10%.
