Description
L5963 is a dual step-down switching regulator
with internal power switches, high side driver and
a low drop-out linear regulator that can operate as
standby regulator or normal LDO.
All the regulators can be connected directly to the
vehicle battery. In addition to an adjustable
voltage detector, voltage supervisors are
available.
The two DC-DC converters can work in free-run
condition or synchronize themselves to an
external clock. DC/DCs' PWM outputs have a
180° phase shift.
The high operating frequency allowed by the
synchronization input helps to reduce AM and FM
interferences and grants the use of small and low
cost inductors and capacitors.
This IC finds application in the automotive
segment, where load dump protection and wide
input voltage range are mandatory.
A slug-up package option is available for
applications which require heatsink use.
In standby condition the device guarantees
extremely low quiescent current (25 μA typical @
-40 °C < T < 85 °C)
