Description

The A4403 is a buck converter that uses valley current-mode

control. This control scheme allows very short switch on-times

to be achieved, making it ideal for applications that require

high switching frequencies combined with high input voltages

and low output voltages.

Low cost is accomplished through high switching frequencies

of up to 2 MHz, allowing smaller and lower value inductors

and capacitors. In addition, minimal external components are

required through high levels of integration. Optimal drive

circuits are utilized to minimize switching losses.

The switching frequency is maintained constant, as the on-time

is modulated by the input voltage. This feed-forward control

ensures excellent line correction. The on-time is set by an

external resistor pulled-up to the input supply.

When power is initially applied and the device is enabled, a

user-configurable soft-start function occurs to minimize inrush

current and to prevent output overshoot. Internal housekeeping

and bootstrap supplies are provided which only require the

addition of one small ceramic capacitor. A top-off charge pump

is also provide to ensure correct operation at light loads.

Internal diagnostics provide comprehensive protection against

overcurrents, input undervoltages, and overtemperatures.

The device package is a 16-contact, 4 mm × 4 mm, 0.75 mm

nominal overall height QFN, with exposed pad for enhanced

thermal dissipation. It is lead (Pb) free, with 100% matte tin

leadframe plating.
