UNIVERSAL
SWITCHING REGULATOR
SUBSYSTEM
The µA78S40 is a switching regulator subsystem, consisting of a
temperature compensated voltage reference, controlled–duty cycle
oscillator with an active current limit circuit, comparator, high–current and
high–voltage output switch, capable of 1.5 A and 40 V, pinned–out power
diode and an uncommitted operational amplifier, which can be powered up or
down independent of the IC supply. The switching output can drive external
NPN or PNP transistors when voltages greater the 40 V, or currents in
excess of 1.5 A, are required. Some of the features are wide–supply voltage
range, low standby current, high efficiency and low drift. The µA78S40 is
available in commercial (0° to + 70°C), and automotive (–40° to + 85°C)
temperature ranges.
SEMICONDUCTOR
TECHNICAL DATA
Some of the applications include use in step–up, step–down, and
inverting regulators, with extremely good results obtained in battery–
operated systems.
