Description
Features
The SC2608A is a versatile voltage-mode PWM control-
ler designed for use in step down DC/DC power supply
applications. A simple, fixed frequency, highly efficient
buck regulator can be implemented using the SC2608A
with minimal external components. The input voltage
range is from +5V to +12V. Internal level shift and drive
circuitry eliminates the need for an expensive P-channel,
high-side MOSFET. The small device footprint allows for
compact circuit design.
SC2608A features include temperature compensated
voltage reference, triangle wave oscillator, current limit
comparator, and an externally compensated error ampli-
fier. Current limit is implemented by sensing the voltage
drop across the bottom MOSFET R_DS(ON).
The SC2608A operates at a fixed frequency of 250kHz
providing an optimum compromise between efficiency ,
external component size, and cost.
SC2608A has a thermal protection circuit, which is
activated if the junction temperature exceeds 150 ^OC.
