STEVAL-ISA047V2
Description
This demonstration board is based on the
ST1S03A, an adjustable current mode PWM
step-down DC-DC converter with internal 1.5 A
power switch, packaged in a 6-lead DFN 3x3 mm.
It's a complete 1.5 A switching regulator with its
internal compensation eliminating additional
component.
The constant frequency, current mode, PWM
architecture and stable operation with ceramic
capacitors results in low, predictable output ripple.
However, in order to maximize the power
conversion efficiency with light load, the regulator
reduces automatically the switching frequency
when the output load becomes less than 250 mA
typically.
