LP3202AB5F

The LP3202 is a 1.5MHz constant frequency current mode PWM step-down converter. integrates main switch and synchronous rectifier switch. The LP3201 integrates two operation modes, PWM control and PFM mode switching control, which allows a high efficiency over the wider range of the load. It is ideal for portable equipment which requires very high current up to 2.0A from single-cell Lithium-ion batteries while still achieving over 96% efficiency during peak load conditions. The LP3202 also can run at 100% duty cycle for low dropout operation, extending battery life in portable systems while light load operation provides very low output ripple for noisy sensitive applications. The LP3202 can supply up to 2.0A output load current from at VIN = 3V and has an input voltage 2.5V to 6V and the output voltage can be regulated as low as 0.61V. The high switching frequency minimizes the size of external components while keeping switching losses low. The internal slope compensation setting allows the device to operate with smaller inductor values to optimize size and provide efficient operation. The device is available in a Pb-free SOT23-5 package and is rated over the temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The LP3202 is a high output current monolithic switch-mode step-down DC-DC converter. The device operates at a fixed 1.5MHz switching frequency, and uses a slope compensated current mode architecture. This step-down DC-DC converter can supply up to 2A output current from at VIN = 3V and has an input voltage range from 2.5V to 6V. It minimizes external component size and optimizes efficiency at the heavy load range. The slope compensation allows the device to remain stable over a wider range of inductor values so that smaller values (1μH to 4.7μH) with lower DCR can be used to achieve higher efficiency. Apart from the small bypass input capacitor, only a small L-C filter is required at the output. The device can be programmed with external feedback to any voltage, ranging from 0.61V to near the input voltage. It uses internal MOSFETs to achieve high efficiency and can generate very low output voltages by using an internal reference of 0.6V. At dropout, the converter duty cycle increases to 100% and the output voltage tracks the input voltage minus the low RDS (ON) drop of the P-channel high-side MOSFET and the inductor DCR. The internal error amplifier and compensation provides excellent transient response, load and line regulation. Internal soft start eliminates any output voltage over-shoot when the enable or the input voltage is applied.
