The LP8733xx is designed to meet the power management requirements in industrial applications. The device has two step-down DC/DC converters (which can be configured as a single dual-phase regulator or two single-phase regulators), two linear regulators, and two general-purpose digital-output signals. The device is controlled by an I2C-compatible serial interface and by an enable signal.

The automatic PWM/PFM (AUTO mode) operation together with the automatic phase adding/shedding gives high efficiency over a wide output-current range. The LP8733xx supports remote voltage sensing (differential in dual-phase configuration) to compensate IR drop between the regulator output and the point-of-load (POL), thus improving the accuracy of the output voltage. In addition, the switching clock can be forced to PWM mode and also synchronized to an external clock to minimize the disturbances.

The LP8733xx device supports programmable start-up and shutdown delays and sequences including GPO signals synchronized to the enable signal. During start-up and voltage change, the device controls the output slew rate to minimize output voltage overshoot and the in-rush current.
