EUP3427

EUP3427 4A, Synchronous Step-Down Converter DESCRIPTION The EUP3427 is a 1 MHz fixed frequency synchronous, current-mode, step-down dc-dc converter capable of providing up to 4A output current. The EUP3427 operates from an input range of 2.7V to 5.5V and provides a regulated output voltage from 0.6V to 5V. The internal synchronous power switch improves efficiency and eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode. The EUP3427 can be externally set for either forced PWM continuous mode or pulse skipping mode. Forced PWM operation provides very low output ripple voltage for noise sensitive applications while pulse skipping operation improves light load efficiency by reducing switching loss. The EUP3427 features short circuit and thermal protection circuits to improve system reliability. Internally soft-start avoids input inrush current during startup. The EUP3427 is available in SOP-8 package with the exposed pad and TDFN-10 package.
