Vishay Siliconix
15 A microBUCK® SiC401A/B
Integrated Buck Regulator with Programmable LDO
DESCRIPTION
The Vishay Siliconix SiC401A/B an advanced stand-alone
synchronous buck regulator featuring integrated power
MOSFETs, bootstrap switch, and a programmable LDO in a
space-saving PowerPAK MLP55-32L pin packages.
The SiC401A/B is capable of operating with all ceramic
solutions and switching frequencies up to 1 MHz. The
programmable frequency, synchronous operation and
selectable power-save allow operation at high efficiency
across the full range of load current. The internal LDO may
be used to supply 5 V for the gate drive circuits or it may be
bypassed with an external 5 V for optimum efficiency and
used to drive external n-channel MOSFETs or other loads.
Additional features include cycle-by-cycle current limit,
voltage soft-start, under-voltage protection, programmable
over-current protection, soft shutdown and selectable
power-save. The Vishay Siliconix SiC401A/B also provides
an enable input and a power good output.
