Key Featrues

Wide Input Voltage Range (4.5V to 38V): This feature allows the controller to operate efficiently across a broad range of input voltages, making it versatile for various power supply applications, including automotive, industrial, and computing systems. It ensures stable performance even with fluctuating input voltages, enhancing reliability in diverse environments.
Controlled On-Time, Valley Current Mode Control: This architecture enables fast transient response and maintains constant frequency switching during steady-state operation, regardless of changes in input voltage, output voltage, or load current. This results in improved efficiency and reduced output voltage ripple, making it ideal for high-performance power systems.
Differential Output Voltage Sensing: This feature allows for accurate voltage regulation by compensating for up to ±500mV of line loss at remote ground. It ensures precise output voltage control, which is critical for applications requiring tight voltage tolerances, such as point-of-load converters and data communication systems.
Programmable Switching Frequency (200kHz to 2MHz): The ability to adjust the switching frequency provides flexibility to optimize the design for efficiency, component size, and EMI performance. Higher frequencies allow for smaller inductors and capacitors, reducing the overall footprint of the power supply design.
Thermally Enhanced 32-Pin QFN Package: The compact 5mm × 5mm QFN package with an exposed pad improves thermal performance, enabling efficient heat dissipation in high-power applications. This enhances the controller's reliability and longevity, particularly in space-constrained designs or environments with high ambient temperatures.
