High efficiency > 95 %
The Vishay Siliconix SiC403 is an advanced stand-alone
synchronous buck regulator featuring integrated power
MOSFETs, bootstrap switch, and a programmable LDO in a
space-saving MLPQ 5 x 5 - 32 pin package.
6 A continuous output current capability
Integrated bootstrap switch
Programmable 200 mA LDO with bypass logic
Temperature compensated current limit
Pseudo fixed-frequency adaptive on-time control
All ceramic solution enabled
The SiC403 is capable of operating with all ceramic solutions
and switching frequencies up to 1 MHz. The programmable
frequency, synchronous operation and selectable
power-save allow operation at high efficiency across the full
range of load current. The internal LDO may be used to
supply 5 V for the gate drive circuits or it may be bypassed
with an external 5 V for optimum efficiency and used to drive
external n-channel MOSFETs or other loads. Additional
features include cycle-by-cycle current limit, voltage
Programmable input UVLO threshold
Independent enable pin for switcher and LDO
Selectable ultra-sonic power-save mode
Programmable soft-start
Soft-shutdown

over-current protection, soft shutdown and selectable
power-save. The Vishay Siliconix SiC403 also provides an
enable input and a power good output.
