Buck Converters Take Aim At Ultra-Small, Battery-Operated Apps

May 1, 2002
Proclaiming to help prolong the run-times provided by single-cell Lithium-ion batteries, three 600 mA synchronous buck converters are intended for end products including cell phones, PDAs, digital cameras, MP3 players, portable scanners, LCD modules

Proclaiming to help prolong the run-times provided by single-cell Lithium-ion batteries, three 600 mA synchronous buck converters are intended for end products including cell phones, PDAs, digital cameras, MP3 players, portable scanners, LCD modules and dc/dc converter modules. The Si9174, Si9175 and Si9176 convert 2.6V-6V input voltages to output voltages as low as 0.4V. All three ICs feature 100% duty cycle control for extra low dropout, as well as selectable PWM, PSM and Auto Mode. The Si9174 and 9175 can be synchronized to a 13 MHz external oscillator to reduce system noise in cell phones. The Si9174 features a DAC input for dynamic output voltage adjustments from 0.4V up to the input voltage, while the Si9175 and Si9176 feature a fixed output voltage down to 1.2V set by external resistors. All three converters are rated for operation over the industrial temperature range and are available in an MSOP-10 package or a leadless MLP33 package measuring 3 mm x 3 mm. Pricing starts at $1.30 each/50,000. VISHAY SILICONIX, Santa Clara, CA. (800) 554-5565 ext. 02
