■GENERAL DESCRIPTION
■FEATURES
The
XC9235/9236/9237
series
is
a
group
of
P-Ch Driver Tr. Built-In
N-Ch Synchronous Driver
Tr. built-in
: ON resistance 0.42Ω
: ON resistance 0.52Ω
synchronous-rectification type DC/DC converters with a
built-in 0.42 Ω P-channel driver transistor and 0.52 Ω
N-channel switching transistor, designed to allow the use of
ceramic capacitors. The ICs enable a high efficiency, stable
power supply with an output current of 600mA to be
configured using only a coil and two capacitors connected
externally. Operating voltage range is from 1.8V to 6.0V.
Output voltage is internally programmable in a range from
0.8V to 4.0V in increments of 50mV <accuracy: ±1.5%(±
2.0%)>. With the built-in oscillator, oscillation frequency is
selectable from 600kHz, 1.2MHz, and 3.0MHz to make
available the frequency best suited to your particular
application. As for operation mode, the XC9235 series is
PWM control, the XC9236 series is automatic PWM/PFM
switching control and the XC9237 series can be manually
switched between the PWM control mode and the automatic
PWM/PFM switching control mode, allowing fast response,
low ripple and high efficiency over the full range of load (from
light load to high output current conditions).

* Performance depends on external components
and wiring on the PCB.
The soft start and current control functions are internally
optimized. During standby, all circuits are shutdown to
reduce current consumption to as low as 1.0μA or less.
With the built-in U.V.L.O. (Under Voltage Lock Out) function,
the internal P-channel driver transistor is forced OFF when
input voltage becomes 1.4V or lower.
Two types of
package, SOT-25 (250mW) and USP-6C (100mW), are
available.
