LM43600 SIMPLE SWITCHER 3.5 V to 36 V 0.5 A Synchronous Step-Down Voltage
Converter
1 Features
3 Description
The LM43600 SIMPLE SWITCHER® regulator is an
easy to use synchronous step-down DC-DC
converter capable of driving up to 0.5 A of load
current from an input voltage ranging from 3.5 V to 36

transient). The LM43600 provides
exceptional efficiency, output accuracy and drop-out
voltage in a very small solution size. An extended
family is available in 1 A, 2 A and 3 A load current
options in pin-to-pin compatible packages. Peak
current mode control is employed to achieve simple
control loop compensation and cycle-by-cycle current
limiting. Optional features such as programmable
switching frequency, synchronization, power-good
flag, precision enable, internal soft-start, extendable
soft-start, and tracking provide a flexible and easy to
use platform for a wide range of applications.
Discontinuous conduction and automatic frequency
modulation at light loads improve light load efficiency.
The family requires few external components and pin
arrangement allows simple, optimum PCB layout.
Protection features include thermal shutdown, VCC
under-voltage lockout, cycle-by-cycle current limit,
and output short circuit protection. The LM43601
device is available in the HTSSOP / PWP 16 leaded
package (5.1 mm x 6.6 mm x 1.2 mm) with 0.65 mm
lead pitch. Pin to pin compatible with LM46000,
LM46001, LM46002, LM43601, LM43602, LM43603.
