L4974A
L4974A is 3.5A SWITCHING REGULATOR manufactured by STMicroelectronics.
DESCRIPTION
The L4974Aisa stepdownmonolithicpower switching regulator delivering 3.5A at a voltage variable from 5.1 to 40V. Realized with BCD mixed technology, the device uses a DMOS output transistor to obtain very high efficiency and very fast switching times. Features of BLOCK DIAGRAM the L4974A include reset and power fail for microprocessors, feed forward line regulation, soft start, limiting current and thermal protection. The device is mountedin a Powerdip16 + 2 + 2 plastic package and requires few external ponents. Efficient operation at switching frequencies up to 200KHz allows reductionin the size and cost of externalfilter ponent.
