Preliminary Datasheet
380kHz, 3A Asynchronous DC - DC Buck Converter
AP3203
General Description
The AP3203 is a 380kHz fixed frequency, current
mode, PWM buck (step-down) DC-DC converter,
capable of driving a 3A load with high efficiency,
excellent line and load regulation. The device
integrates N-channel power MOSFET switch with
low on-resistance. The current mode control provides
fast transient response and cycle-by-cycle current
limit.
A standard series of inductors are available from
several different manufacturers optimized for use
with the AP3203. This feature greatly simplifies the
design of switch-mode power supplies.
This IC is available in PSOP-8 package.
