PRODUCTION DATA
The LMR23615 SIMPLE SWITCHER® regulator is an easy-to-use synchronous step-down DC-DC converter operating from a 4-V to 36-V supply voltage. It is capable of delivering up to 1.5-A DC load current with good thermal performance in a small solution size. An extended family is available in multiple current options from 1.5 A to 3 A in pin-to-pin compatible packages.
The LMR23615 employs constant frequency peak-current-mode control. The device enters PFM mode at light load to achieve high efficiency. The device is internally compensated, which reduces design time, and requires few external components. The switching frequency is adjustable from 200 kHz to 2.2 MHz, leaving the RT pin open for 400-kHz default switching frequency. The LMR23615 is also capable of synchronization to an external clock within the range of 200 kHz to 2.2 MHz.
Additional features such as precision enable and internal soft start provide a flexible and easy-to-use solution for a wide range of applications. Protection features include thermal shutdown, VIN and VCC undervoltage lockout, cycle-by-cycle current limit, and hiccup-mode short-circuit protection.
The LMR236xx family requires very few external components and has a pinout designed for simple, optimum PCB layout.
