Description
Designed to provide the power supply requirements of printers,
office automation, industrial, and portable equipment, the
A4491 provides three high current, high performance, switching
regulator outputs in a single package, saving space, cost and
component count.
High frequency switching allows selection of inexpensive
inductors and small ceramic output capacitors. The turn-on
cycles of the regulators are interleaved to minimize stresses on
the input capacitors and to reduce EMI. Independent Enable
pins simplify power sequencing and shutdown capabilities,
and a power-on-reset (POR) circuit with user configurable
delay indicates when enabled regulators are in specification.
