40V PowerBlox
3A/5A/8A Synchronous Step Down COT Regulator
FEATURES
General Description
Controller, drivers, bootstrap diode and
MOSFETs integrated in one package
The XR76203, XR76205 and XR76208 are synchronous step-down regu-
lators combining the controller, drivers, bootstrap diode and MOSFETs in
a single package for point-of-load supplies. The XR76203, XR76205 and
XR76208 have load current ratings of 3A, 5A and 8A respectively. A wide
5V to 40V input voltage range allows for single supply operation from
industry standard 24V 10%, 18V-36V, and rectified 18VAC and 24VAC
rails.
3A, 5A and 8A Step Down Regulators
Wide 5V to 40V Input Voltage Range
>0.6V Adjustable Output Voltage
Proprietary Constant On-Time Control
No Loop Compensation Required
Stable Ceramic Output Capacitor Operation
Programmable 200ns to 2μs On-Time
Constant 100kHz to 800kHz Frequency
Selectable CCM or CCM/DCM
CCM/DCM for high efficiency at light-load
CCM for constant frequency at light-load
With a proprietary emulated current mode Constant On-Time (COT) con-
trol scheme, the XR76203, XR76205 and XR76208 provide extremely
fast line and load transient response using ceramic output capacitors.
They require no loop compensation, simplifying circuit implementation
and reducing overall component count. The control loop also provides
0.07% load and 0.15% line regulation and maintains constant operating
frequency. A selectable power saving mode allows the user to operate in
discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) at light current loads thereby sig-
nificantly increasing the converter efficiency.
Programmable Hiccup Current Limit with
Thermal Compensation
Precision Enable and Power Good flag
Programmable Soft-start
30-pin 5x5mm QFN package
A host of protection features, including over-current, over-temperature,
short-circuit and UVLO, helps achieve safe operation under abnormal
operating conditions.
