Applications
Description
The IR3801A SupIRBuck^TM is an easy-to-use,
fully integrated and highly efficient DC/DC
regulator. The onboard switching controller and
MOSFETs make the IR3801A a space-efficient
solution, providing accurate power delivery for
low output voltage applications.
The IR3801A operates from a single 4.5V to 14V
input supply and generates an output voltage
adjustable from 0.6V to 0.8*Vin at loads up to 9A.
A versatile regulator offering programmability of
startup time, power good threshold and current
limit, the IR3801A’s fixed 300kHz switching
frequency allows the use of small external
components.
• Game Consoles
• Set-top Boxes
• Graphics Cards
• LCD TVs
• Desktop PCs
• Distributed Point-of-Loads
• Embedded Systems
• Computing Peripheral Voltage Regulators
The IR3801A also features important protection
functions, such as Pre-Bias startup, hiccup
current limit and thermal shutdown to provide the
required system level security in the event of fault
conditions.
