CM3708
3A LOW-NOISE PWM STEP-DOWN REGULATOR
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The CM3708 is a low-noise, pulse-width-modulated (PWM), DC-DC step-down converter. It powers logic and transmitters in small wireless systems such as cellular phones, communicating PDAs, and handy-terminals. The device features an internal synchronous rectifier for high efficiency; it requires no external Schottky diode. Excellent noise characteristics and fixed-frequency operation provide easy post-filtering. The CM3708 is ideally suited for Li-lon battery applications. It is also useful for +3V or +5V fixed input applications. The device operates in one of four modes. Forced PWM mode operates at a fixed frequency regardless of the load. Shutdown mode places the device in standby, reducing quiescent supply current to under 0.1µA. The CM3708 can deliver over 3.0A. The output voltage can be adjusted from VREF to VIN. The input range is from 2.0V to 5.0V. Other features of the CM3708 include high efficiency, low dropout voltage. It is available in a space-saving 16-pin SOP & TSSOP package.

3A LOW-NOISE PWM STEP-DOWN REGULATOR
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The CM3708 step-down, pulse-width-modulated (PWM), DC-DC converter has an adjustable output range from VREF to the input voltage (VIN). An internal synchronous rectifier Fixed-frequency operation enables easy post-filtering, thereby providing excellent noise characteristics. As a result, the CM3708 is an ideal choice for many small wireless systems.
INPUTS
The input voltage reference pin, VREF determine the output voltages (LX1, LX2). If a specific voltage is forced at the VREF
improves efficiency and eliminates an external Schottky diode. pin, the output voltage follows the voltage at the VREF pin.
OTHER SUPPLY VOLTAGES
Several inputs are provided for the supply voltages: PVIN and VIN. The PVIN provide the power supply to the power MOSFETs. VIN provides the voltage supply to the logic section and internal error amplifiers.
VREF The reference voltage could be ranged from 1.1V to VIN.
OUPUTS
The output voltage pins (LX1, LX2) are tied to the RF power amp, via an external inductor. Output voltage is determined by the VREF inputs.
FEEDBACK
The VFB pin is an input that can be used for closed loop compensation. This input is derived from the voltage output. AGND pin is a contact node of internal resistor divider for remote sense.
