It is ideal for portable equipment requiring very high current up to 2A from single-cell Lithium-ion batteries while still achieving over 90% efficiency during peak load conditions. The MT3520B also can run at 100% duty cycle for low dropout operation, extending battery life in portable systems while light load operation provides very low output ripple for noise sensitive applications. The MT3520B can supply up to 2A output load current from a 2.3V to 6V input voltage and the output voltage can be regulated as low as 0.6V. The high switching frequency minimizes the size of external ponents while keeping switching losses low. The internal slope pensation setting allows the device to operate with smaller inductor values to optimize size and provide efficient operation. The MT3520B is offered in a low profile 6-pin, SOT package, and is available in an adjustable version. This device offers two operation modes, PWM control and PFM Mode switching control, which allows a high efficiency over the wider range of the load. TYPICAL APPLICATION 95.00%...
