L5973D

L5973D 2.5 A switch step down switching regulator Features ■ 2.5 A internal switch ■ Operating input voltage from 4 V to 36 V ■ 3.3 V / (±2%) reference voltage ■ Output voltage adjustable from 1.235 V to 35 V ■ Low dropout operation: 100 % duty cycle ■ 250 kHz internally fixed frequency Description ■ Voltage feedforward ■ Zero load current operation ■ Internal current limiting ■ Inhibit for zero current consumption ■ Synchronization ■ Protection against feedback disconnection ■ Thermal shutdown The L5973D is a step down monolithic power switching regulator with a minimum switch current limit of 2.5 A so it is able to deliver more than 2 A DC current to the load depending on the application conditions. The output voltage can be set from 1.235 V to 35 V. The high current level is also achieved thanks to an SO8 package with exposed frame, that allows to reduce the Rth(j-amb) down to approximately 40 °C/W. The device uses an internal P-channel D-MOS transistor (with a typical Rdson of 250 mΩ) as switching element to minimize the size of the external components. An internal oscillator fixes the switching frequency at 250 kHz. Having a minimum input voltage of 4 V only, it is particularly suitable for 5 V bus, available in all computer related applications. Pulse by pulse current limit with the internal frequency modulation offers an effective constant current short circuit protection.

Dual output voltage with auxiliary winding 11/17 Application ideas L5973D When an output voltage below the internal reference (1.235 V) is required, the circuit reported in the figure 18 can been used. In this case the minimum voltage reachable is 0.6 V and can be easily calculated with the following formula: VOUT = VFB - [(VREF - VFB)x(R2 / R1)] If the load is not present, a resistor connected between VOUT and GND is required in order to avoid that the voltage across COUT increases. The value of this resistor has to be calculated taking into account that the current flowing through this resistance has to be higher than the current flowing through R2. Figure 19.
