POWER MANAGEMENT
Description
The SC2618 is a hysteretic mode PWM controller de-
signed for high efficiency, low cost “Point of Load” appli-
cations.
The hysteretic control scheme allows the use of ceramic
output capacitors without the need for compensation
components and difficult calculations.
An internal soft start prevents output voltage from start
up overshoot. A “Hiccup” short circuit protection provides
protection against output short circuits as well as ad-
verse input supply sequencing.
