DESCRIPTION
The LM2840, LM2841 and LM2842 are PWM DC/DC
buck (step-down) regulators. With a wide input range
from 4.5V-42V, they are suitable for a wide range of
applications such as power conditioning from
unregulated sources. They feature a low RDSON (0.9Ω
typical) internal switch for maximum efficiency (85%
typical). Operating frequency is fixed at 550 kHz (X
version) and 1.25 MHz (Y version) allowing the use of
small external components while still being able to
have low output voltage ripple. Soft-start can be
implemented using the shutdown pin with an external
RC circuit allowing the user to tailor the soft-start time
to a specific application.
The LM2840 is optimized for up to 100 mA, the
LM2841 for 300 mA and the LM2842 is optimized for
up to 600 mA load currents. They all have a 0.765V
nominal feedback voltage.
Additional features include: thermal shutdown, VIN
under-voltage lockout, and gate drive under-voltage
lockout. The LM2840, LM2841 and LM2842 are
available in a low profile SOT-6L package.
