Description
The FAN1577A is a high-efficiency, voltage-mode, dual-
channel, synchronous DC/DC PWM controller for two
independent outputs. The two channels are operated
out of phase. The internal reference voltage is trimmed
to 0.7V±1.0%. It is connected to the error amplifier’s
positive terminal for voltage feedback regulation.
A soft-start circuit ensures the output voltage can be
gradually and smoothly increased from zero to its final
regulated value. The soft-start pin can also be used for
chip-enable function. When two soft-start pins are
grounded, the chip is disabled, and the total operation
current can be reduced to under 0.7mA.
The fixed-frequency is programmable from 61kHz to
340kHz. The Over-Current Protection (OCP) level can
be programmed by an external current-sense resistor. It
has two integrated sets of internal MOSFET drivers.
FAN1577A is available in a 20-pin small-outline
package (SOP).
