Enpirion® Power Datasheet
EP53A8LQA/HQA 1A PowerSoC
Voltage Mode Synchronous
PWM Buck with Integrated Inductor
Description
The EP53A8LQA and EP53A8HQA are 1A
PowerSoCs that are AEC-Q100 qualified for
automotive applications. The device integrates
MOSFET switches, control, compensation, and the
Inductor in an advanced 3mm x 3mm QFN Package.
Integrated inductor ensures the complete power
solution is fully characterized with the inductor
carefully matched to the silicon and compensation
network. It enables a tiny solution footprint, low output
ripple, low part-count, and high reliability, while
maintaining high efficiency. The complete solution
can be implemented in as little as 27mm2 and operate
from -40°C to 105°C ambient temperature range.
The EP53A8xQA uses a 3-pin VID to easily select the
output voltage setting. Output voltage settings are
available in 2 optimized ranges providing coverage
for typical VOUT settings.
The VID pins can be changed on the fly for fast
dynamic voltage scaling. EP53A8LQA further has the
option to use an external voltage divider.
