General Description
The AP3427M is a high efficiency step-down dual
channel DC-DC voltage converter. The chip
operation is optimized by peak-current mode
architecture with built-in synchronous power
MOSFET switchers. The oscillator and timing
capacitors are all built-in providing an internal
switching frequency of 1.5MHz that allows the use of
small surface mount inductors and capacitors for
portable pr o du c t implement a ti ons.
Integrated Soft Start (SS), Under Voltage Lock Out
(UVLO), Thermal Shutdown Detection (TSD) and
Short Circuit Protection are designed to provide
reliable product applications .
The device is available in adjustable output voltage
ranging from 0.6V to 0.9×V
IN
when input voltage
range is from 2.5V to 5.5V, and is able to deliver up
to 1A.
The AP3427M is available in standard DFN-3×3-10
package.
