Featuring great efficiency under both light and heavy load conditions, the devices’ 100% duty cycle allows them to work with the lowest volatge input and a low quiescent current of just 90μA helps conserve the life of battery-powered equipment.
The devices also feature an integrated soft-start that prevents damage as the output switches turn on while integrated over-current and over-temperature protection prevent both the system and the IC from incurring damage under fault conditions.
Supplied in industry-standard pinout TSOT25/26 packages, the AP3402, AP3419 and AP3429 DC/DC step-down converters are priced at $0.15 each in 10,000 unit quantities.
