Functional Description
Synchronous Buck Converter
The EN2342QI is a highly integrated synchronous,
buck converter with integrated controller, power
MOSFET switches and inductor. The nominal input
voltage (PVIN) range is 4.5V to 14V and can
support up to 4A of continuous output current. The
output voltage is programmed using an external
resistor divider network. The control loop utilizes a
Type IV Voltage-Mode compensation network and
maximizes on a low-noise PWM topology. Much of
the compensation circuitry is internal to the device.
However, a phase lead capacitor is required along
with the output voltage feedback resistor divider to
complete the Type IV compensation network.. The
high switching frequency of the EN2342QI enables
the use of small size input and output filter
capacitors, as well as a wide loop bandwidth within
a small foot print.
