Build DC/DC converters with easy-to-use ICs
The MC33063A and MC34063A devices from Texas Instruments are easy-to-use ICs containing all the primary circuitry needed for building simple DC/DC converters. These devices primarily consist of an internal temperature-compensated reference, a comparator, an oscillator, a PWM controller with active current limiting, a driver, and a high-current output switch.
Thus, the devices require minimal external components to build converters in the boost, buck, and inverting topologies.
The MC33063A device is characterised for operation from -40 to +85°C, while the MC34063A device is characterised for operation from zero to +70°C.
