DIO54270
Operation
The DIO54270 is a synchronous buck regulator IC that integrates the COT control, and top and bottom
switches on the same die to minimize the switching transition loss and conduction loss. With ultra low RDS(ON)
power switches and proprietary COT control, this regulator IC can achieve the highest efficiency and the
highest switch frequency simultaneously to minimize the external inductor and capacitor size, and thus
achieving the minimum solution footprint.
The DIO54270 provides protection functions such as cycle by cycle current limiting and thermal shutdown
protection. DIO54270 will sense the output voltage conditions for the fault protection.
Applications Information
Because of the high integration in the DIO54270 IC, the application circuit based on this regulator IC is rather
simple. Only input capacitor CIN, output capacitor COUT, output inductor L and feedback resistors (R1 and R2)
need to be selected for the targeted applications specifications.
Feedback resistor dividers R1 and R2
Choose R1 and R2 to program the proper output voltage. To minimize the power consumption under light
loads, it is desirable to choose large resistance values for both R1 and R2. A value of between 10k and 1M is
highly recommended for both resistors. If VOUT is 3.3 V, R1 = 40.2 k is chosen, then R2 can be calculated to be
13 k.

Input capacitor CIN
This ripple current through input capacitor is calculated as:
ICIN_RMS=IOUT × D(1-D)

To minimize the potential noise problem, place a typical X5R or better grade ceramic capacitor really close to
the IN and GND pins. Care should be taken to minimize the loop area formed by CIN, and IN/GND pins. In this
case, a 4.7 μF low ESR ceramic capacitor is recommended.
