The SC2446A is a high-frequency dual synchronous step-
down switching power supply controller. It provides out-
of-phase output gate signals. The SC2446A operates in
synchronous continuous-conduction mode. Both phases
are capable of maintaining regulation with sourcing or
sinking load currents, making the SC2446A suitable for
generating both V
cations.
The SC2446A employs fixed frequency peak current-
mode control for the ease of frequency compensation
and fast transient response.
The dual-phase step-down controllers of the SC2446A
can be configured to provide two individually controlled
and regulated outputs or a single output with shared
current in each phase. The Step-down controllers oper-
ate from an input of at least 4.7V and are capable of
regulating outputs as low as 0.5V
The step-down controllers in the SC2446A have the pro-
vision to sense inductor R
control. This sensing scheme eliminates the need of the
current-sense resistor and is more noise-immune than
direct sensing of the high-side or the low-side MOSFET
voltage. Precise current-sensing with sense resistor is
optional.
Individual soft-start and overload shutdown timer is in-
cluded in each step-down controller. The SC2446A imple-
ments hiccup overload protection. In two-phase single-
output configuration, the master timer controls the soft-
start and overload shutdown functions of both control-
lers.
