Description
The IR3842A SupIRBuck^TM is an easy-to-use,
fully integrated and highly efficient DC/DC
synchronous Buck regulator. The MOSFETs co-
packaged with the on-chip PWM controller make
IR3842A a space-efficient solution, providing
accurate power delivery for low output voltage
applications.
IR3842A is a versatile regulator which offers
programmability of start up time, switching
frequency and current limit while operating in
wide input and output voltage range.
The switching frequency is programmable from
250kHz to 1.2MHz for an optimum solution.
It also features important protection functions,
such as Pre-Bias startup, hiccup current limit and
thermal shutdown to give required system level
security in the event of fault conditions.
