LM3100
SIMPLE SWITCHER® Synchronous 1MHz 1.5A Step-Down
Voltage Regulator
General Description
The LM3100 Synchronously Rectified Buck Converter fea-
tures all functions needed to implement a highly efficient, cost
effective buck regulator capable of supplying 1.5A to loads
with voltages as low as 0.8V. Dual 40V N-Channel syn-
chronous MOSFET switches allow for low external compo-
nent thus reducing complexity and minimizing board space.
The LM3100 is designed to work exceptionally well with ce-
ramic and other very low ESR output capacitors. The Con-
stant ON-Time (COT) regulation scheme requires no loop
compensation, results in fast load transient response, and
simplifies circuit implementation. Through the use of a unique
design the regulator does not rely on output capacitor ESR
for stability, as do most other COT regulators. The operating
frequency remains nearly constant with line and load varia-
tions due to the inverse relationship between the input voltage
and the on-time. The oprating frequency can be externally
programmed up to 1MHz. Protection features include VCC un-
der-voltage lockout, thermal shutdown and gate drive under-
voltage lockout. The part is available in a thermally enhanced
eTSSOP-20 package
