SY20518
High Efficiency, 1MHz, 2A, Buck-Boost DC/DC Regulator
General Description
The SY20518 is a 2.6V to 5.5V input voltage range, high efficiency, fixed frequency Buck-Boost converter that can provide up to 2A of continuous current to a load that requires a voltage below equal or above the input voltage. The converter can provide power for system powered by either a two-cell or three-cell alkaline, Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries, or a single cell Li-Ion or Li-polymer battery.
The SY20518 is based on a fixed frequency, pulse-widthmodulation (PWM) controller using synchronous rectification to obtain maximum efficiency. The output voltage and compensation circuit can be programmed using an external RC network.
