SC1403
SC1403 is Mobile Multi-Output PWM Controller with Virtual Current SenseTM manufactured by SEMTECH.
- Part of the SC1 comparator family.
- Part of the SC1 comparator family.
Description
The SC1403 is a multiple-output power supply controller designed to power battery operated systems. The SC1403 provides synchronous rectified buck converter control for two (3.3 V and 5 V) power supplies. An efficiency of 95% can be achieved for the two supplies. The SC1403 uses Semtech’s proprietary Virtual Current Sense TM technology along with external error amplifier pensation to achieve enhanced stability and DC accuracy over a wide range of output filter ponents while maintaining fixed frequency operation. The SC1403 also provides a linear regulator for system housekeeping. The 5 V linear regulator takes its input from the battery; for efficiency, the output is switched to the 5V output when available. Control functions include: power up sequencing, soft start, power-good signaling, and frequency synchronization. Line and load regulation is to +/-1% of the output voltage. The internal oscillator can be adjusted to 200 k Hz or 300 k Hz or synchronized to an external clock. The MOSFET drivers provide >1A peak drive current for fast MOSFET switching. skipping mode for high efficiency at light load, or fixed frequency mode for low noise operation.
