3.3V to 1.8V and 0.9V step-down DC-DC converter

Key Features

  • 3.3V to 1.8V with 200mA maximum load current step-down DC-DC
  • 3.3V to 0.9V with 300mA maximum load current step-down DC-DC
  • Peak-current mode control with ramp compensation
  • Pulse frequency modulation (PFM) mode for improved efficiency at small load currents.
  • Over temperature protection (OVLO), input under voltage protection (UVLO)
  • Over output voltage protection
  • Softstart to avoid inrush current
  • Audio avoidance to keep PFM switching out of audio frequency range
  • 2.5V to 3.8V input range
  • Outputs programmability (±5%)
  • Programmable current limit
  • Bandgap reference with <2% accuracy and <0.5mV/V supply rejection
  • EMI reduction modes with FMCW/Pseudo-random modulation
  • 90.5% efficiency at 180mA for 0.9V DC-DC
  • 95.1% efficiency at 120mA for 1.8V DC-DC
  • 28nm TSMC CMOS technology
