Global Mixed-mode Technology
G5196
High Efficiency, 6A Output, Synchronous Step Down
Features
General Description
The G5196 device is a full featured 5.5V, 6A synchro-
nous step down current mode converter with two inte-
grated MOSFETs.
Two 20mΩ (typical) MOSFETs for high effi-
ciency at 6A loads
200kHz to 2MHz Switching Frequency
0.8V ± 1% Voltage Reference Over Temperature
Synchronizes to External Clock
Adjustable Soft Start
UV and OV Power Good Output
Low Operating and Shutdown Quiescent Cur-
rent
The G5196 enables small designs by integrating the
MOSFETs, implementing current mode control to re-
duce external component count, reducing inductor size
by enabling up to 2MHz switching frequency, and
minimizing the IC footprint with a small 3mm x 3mm
(4mm x 4mm) thermally enhanced TQFN package.
Safe Start-up into Pre-Biased Output
Cycle by Cycle Current Limit, Thermal and
Frequency Fold Back Protection
Thermally Enhanced 3mm × 3mm 16-pin TQFN
and 4mm × 4mm 16-pin TQFN
The G5196 provides accurate regulation for a variety
of loads with an accurate ±1% Voltage Reference
(VREF) over temperature.
Efficiency is maximized through the integrated 20mΩ
MOSFETs and 350µA typical supply current. Using the
enable pin, shutdown supply current is reduced to 2µA
by entering a shutdown mode.
Applications
Low-Voltage, High-Density Power Systems
Point of Load Regulation for High Performance
DSPs, FPGAs, ASICs and Microprocessors
Broadband, Networking and Optical Commu-
nication Infrastructure
Under voltage lockout is internally set at 2.6V, but can
be increased by programming the threshold with a
resistor network on the enable pin. The output voltage
startup ramp is controlled by the soft start pin. An open
drain power good signal indicates the output is within
93% to 107% of its nominal voltage.
