DESCRIPTION
The LM3676 step-down DC-DC converter is optimized for powering low voltage circuits from a single Li-Ion cell battery and input voltage rails from 2.9V to 5.5V. It provides up to 600m A load current, over the entire input voltage range. There are several different fixed voltage output options available as well as an adjustable output voltage version.
The LM3676 has a mode-control pin that allows the user to select continuous Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) mode over the plete load range or an intelligent PFM-PWM mode that changes modes depending on the load. PWM mode offers superior efficiency under high load conditions (>100m A) and the lowest output noise performance. In Auto mode, PFM-PWM, hysteretic PFM extends the battery life through reduction of the quiescent current to 16µA (typ.) during light loads and system standby.
The LM3676 is available in a 8-lead non-pullback WSON package in leaded (PB) and lead-free (NO PB) versions. A high switching frequency of 2 MHz (typ) allows use of tiny surface-mount ponents, an inductor and two ceramic capacitors.
