NCP1521
1.5 MHz, 600 mA,
High−Efficiency, Low
Quiescent Current,
Adjustable Output Voltage
Step−Down Converter
http://onsemi.com
The NCP1521 step−down PWM DC−DC converter is optimized for
portable applications powered from one cell Li−ion or three cell
Alkaline/NiCd/NiMH batteries. The device is available in an adjustable
output voltage from 0.9 V to 3.3 V. It uses synchronous rectification to
increase efficiency and reduce external part count. The device also has a
built−in 1.5 MHz (nominal) oscillator which reduces component size by
allowing a small inductor and capacitors. Automatic switching
PWM/PFM mode offers improved system efficiency.

Finally, it includes an integrated soft−start, cycle−by−cycle current
limiting, and thermal shutdown protection. The NCP1521 is
available in space saving, low profile TSOP5 and UDFN6 packages.
