DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The SC1409 is a versatile, voltage-mode switching
regulator designed for use in battery operated power
supply applications. A simple, fixed-voltage buck regu-
lator can be implemented using the SC1409 with a
minimum of external components. Internal MOSFETs
and control circuitry minimize board space and design
time. The small device footprint allows for compact
circuit design.
•= Internal MOSFETs
•= Excellent efficiency >88%
•= 1% Voltage accuracy
•= Built-in over current protection
•= 1A Output current
•= 5µA Standby current
•= Industrial temperature range
•= 300kHz/500kHz selectable frequency
SC1409 features include a temperature compensated
voltage reference, triangle wave oscillator, hiccup
mode current limit, an internally compensated error
amplifier, overcurrent temperature protection, soft
start, and under voltage lock out.
APPLICATIONS
•= Handheld equipment
•= PDA power supplies
•= Notebook I/O power supplies
•= Peripheral card supplies
•= High density DC/DC conversion
The SC1409 operates at a selectable, fixed frequency
of 300kHz or 500kHz, or can be synchronized to an
external clock within this range, providing an optimum
compromise between efficiency, external component
size, and cost.
