DESCRIPTION
The RC5057 uses a high level of integration to deliver load currents in excess of 16A from a 5V source with minimal external circuitry. Synchronous-mode operation offers optimum efficiency over the entire specified output voltage range. An on-board precision low TC reference achieves tight tolerance voltage regulation without expensive external components, while active droop permits exact tailoring of voltage for the most demanding load transients. The RC5057 also offers integrated functions including Power Good, Output Enable/ Soft Start and current limiting, and is available in a 16 pin SOIC package.
