DESCRIPTION
Realized in BCD mixed technology, the device uses an internal power D-MOS transistor (with a typical Rdson of 0.25Ω) to obtain very high efficency and high switching speed. Figure 1.

Order Codes Part Number L4971 L4971D L4971D013TR SO16W Package DIP8 SO16W SO16 in Tape & Reel A switching frequency up to 300KHz is achievable (the maximum power dissipation of the packages must be observed). A wide input voltage range between 8V to 55V and output voltages regulated from 3.3V to 50V cover the majority of today’s applications.
