Diodes Incorporated AP1512
The AP1512/A is a monolithic IC designed for use as a step-down DC/DC converter with the ability of driving a 2A (3A for AP1512A) load without additional transistor components. The board space is reduced since AP1512/A requires few external components. The external shutdown function is controlled by logic level and can be put into standby mode.| Part No. | AP1512 |

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The internal compensation ensures feedback control has good line and load regulation without external design. Both an integrated Thermal shutdown and Current Limit function are provided to prevent damage from exceeding temperature operation and against exceeding the current operating of the output switch. The AP1512/A operates at a switching frequency of 50KHz thus allowing smaller sized filter components than what would be needed with lower frequency switching regulators. Other fe...
