1.5A 2.5MHz
ELM601BA
high efficiency synchronous PWM step-down DC/DC converter
■General description
ELM601BA is high efficiency synchronous step down DC/DC converter operated with current mode and
2.5MHz constant frequency; internal switch and synchronous rectifier are integrated for high efficiency. In
application, ELM601BA does not require any external Schottky diode. Internal current consumption under
operation of ELM601BA is as low as 300µA and shutdown current is Typ.1μA. With supply voltage from 2.9 V
to 5.5V, ELM601BA can supply load current of 1.5A. The output voltage range of ELM601BA is 1V to 5V, and
can be adjusted by FB pin.
With 2.5MHz switching frequency, ELM601BA makes it possible to adopt small surface amount inductors and
capacitors. Switch duty cycle would be on continuously and 100% at maximum when input voltage is set to be
lower than output voltage.
