The XR76203-Q, XR76205-Q and XR76208-Q are synchronous step-
down regulators combining the controller, drivers, bootstrap diode and
MOSFETs in a single package for point-of-load supplies well suited for
automotive applications. Qualified per AEC-Q100, the XR76203-Q,
XR76205-Q and XR76208-Q have load current ratings of 3A, 5A and 8A
respectively. A wide 5.5V to 40V input voltage range allows for single sup-
ply operation from 12V battery systems required to withstand load dump,
industry standard 24V ±10%, 18V-36V, and rectified 18VAC and 24VAC
rails.
With a proprietary emulated current mode Constant On-Time (COT) con-
trol scheme, the XR76203-Q, XR76205-Q and XR76208-Q provide
extremely fast line and load transient response using ceramic output
capacitors. They require no loop compensation, simplifying circuit imple-
mentation 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 significantly increasing the converter efficiency.
❏ CCM/DCM for high efficiency at light-load
❏ CCM for constant frequency at light-load
■ Programmable Hiccup Current Limit with
Thermal Compensation
■ Precision Enable and Power Good flag
■ Programmable Soft-start
■ 30-pin 5x5mm QFN package with wettable flanks
A host of protection features, including over-current, over-temperature,
short-circuit and UVLO, helps achieve safe operation under abnormal
operating conditions.
The XR76203/5/8-Q are available in a RoHS-compliant, green/halogen-
free space-saving QFN 5x5mm package.
