Introduction

1 Introduction
The LMZ21701 and LMZ21700 SIMPLE SWITCHER® nano modules are easy-to-use DC-DC solutions
optimized for space constrained applications. The LMZ21701 is capable of driving up to 1-A load with excellent
power conversion efficiency, output voltage accuracy, line and load regulation, and load transient response. The
LMZ21700 is a 650-mA load current version module, pin-to-pin compatible with the LMZ21701. The evaluation
board is configured for 3.3-V output voltage from 5-V to 17-V input. The resistor voltage dividers, RFBT and RFBB,
set the output voltage. The external capacitor CSS sets the soft-start time for VOUT. See the LMZ21701 1-A
Nano Module With 17-V Maximum Input Voltage or LMZ21700 650-mA Nano Module With 17-V Maximum Input
Voltage data sheets for component selection and device details. The board features turret terminals for easy
connection to input supply, load, EN input, as well as soft start voltage and power-good flag monitoring.
