GENERAL DESCRIPTION
ACT4527 is a wide input voltage, high efficiency step-
down DC/DC converter that operates in either CV
(Constant Output Voltage) mode or CC (Constant
Output Current) mode. ACT4527 has an interface for
USB-PD control via a tri-state digital pin. Vout is 5.1V if
this pin is floating, Vout is 9.1V when this pin voltage is
less than 0.8V and Vout is 12.1V while this pin voltage
is more than 2.0V.
ACT4527 has accurate output current limits under
constant current regulation. It provides up to 3.0A output
current at 125kHz switching frequency. ACT4527
utilizes adaptive drive technique to achieve good EMI
performance while main >90% efficiency at full load for
mini size CLA designs. It also has output short circuit
protection with hiccup mode. The average output
current is reduced to below 6mA when output is shorted
to ground. Other features include output over voltage
protection and thermal shutdown.
This device is available in a SOP-8EP package and
require very few external components for operation.
