The device is specifically designed to implement redundant and parallelable DC-DC converters. Current-sharing bus control and OR-Ing fet driving circuitry are embedded featuring proper protection management. Synchronization is also available helping further in reducing input capacitance in paralleled converters. Programmable margin mode control through single pin allow saving external logic. L6733 provides an integrated 0.6 V reference allowing regulating output voltages with ±0.8 % accuracy over line and temperature variations (0 °C to 125 °C) recovering connector and PCB losses through the remote amplifier provided. Programmable dual level over current protection as well as over and under voltage protection are provided. Current information is monitored across the main inductor DCR saving the use of expensive and space-consuming sense resistors. Oscillator is internally fixed to 200 kHz and adjustable up to 1 MHz.
