3 Description
The LM3673 step-down DC-DC converter is
optimized for powering low voltage circuits from a
single Li-Ion cell battery and input voltage rails from
2.7 V to 5.5 V. It provides up to 350-mA load current
over the entire input voltage range. There are several
different fixed voltage output options available, as
well as an adjustable output voltage version ranging
from 1.1 V to 3.3 V.
The device offers superior features and performance
for mobile phones and similar portable systems. The
LM3673 uses intelligent automatic switching between
pulse width modulation (PWM) and pulse frequency
modulation (PFM) for better efficiency. During PWM
mode, the device operates at a fixed-frequency of
2 MHz (typical). Hysteretic PFM mode extends the
battery life by reducing the quiescent current to 16 µA
(typical) during light load and standby operation.
Internal synchronous rectification provides high
efficiency during PWM mode operation. In shutdown
mode, the device turns off and reduces battery
consumption to 0.01 µA (typical).
The LM3673 is available in a tiny 5-pin DSBGA
package. A high switching frequency of 2 MHz
(typical) allows the use of three tiny surface-mount
components: an inductor and two ceramic capacitors.
