FEATURES
Wide Input Voltage Range: 3V-24V Wide Output Voltage Range: 0.8V to 80% VIN 8A Output Current Programmable Frequency Operation: 200KHz to 600KHz Over 95% Peak Efficiency Integrated Schottky Diode on Low-side MOSFET Boosts Efficiency Internal Bootstrap diode Power-Good Signal Pre-Bias Startup Accepts Ceramic Capacitors on Output External Compensation for Flexible Design Input Under-Voltage Lockout Programmable Current Limit Under-Voltage, Over-Voltage, and Thermal Shutdown Protections Internal Soft-Start 5x6mm, 25-Pin, 3-Pad MLP Package DESCRIPTION
External compensation, programmable switching frequency, and current limit features allow design optimization and flexibility. Voltage feedforward helps operation over a wide input voltage range. Fairchild’s advanced BiCMOS power process, combined with low-RDS(ON) internal MOSFETs and a thermally efficient MLP package, provide the ability to dissipate high power in a small package. Output over-voltage, under-voltage, and thermal shutdown protections help protect the device from damage during fault conditions.
