STMicroelectronics B5973D
The B5973D is a step down monolithic power switching regulator with a minimum switch current limit of 2.25 A so it is able to deliver up to 2 A DC current to the load depending on the application conditions. The output voltage can be set from 1.235 V to 35 V. The high current level is also achieved thanks to an HSOP8 package (i.e.| Part No. | B5973D |

DESCRIPTION
SO8 package with exposed frame), that allows to reduce the Rth(JA) down to approximately 40 °C/W. The device uses an internal P-channel DMOS transistor (with a typical RDSon of 250 m) as switching element to minimize the size of the external components. An internal oscillator fixes the switching frequency at 250 kHz. Having a minimum input voltage of 4 V only, it is particularly suitable for 5 V bus. Pulse by pulse current limit with the internal frequency modulation offers an effective constant current short-circuit protection.
