DESCRIPTION
The LM21215 is a monolithic synchronous point of
load buck regulator that is capable of delivering up to
15A of continuous output current while producing an
output voltage down to 0.6V with outstanding
efficiency. The device is optimized to work over an
input voltage range of 2.95V to 5.5V, making it suited
for a wide variety of low voltage systems. The voltage
mode control loop provides high noise immunity,
narrow duty cycle capability and can be compensated
to be stable with any type of output capacitance,
providing maximum flexibility and ease of use.
