4.5V to 36V Input Voltage Range
regulator capable of delivering up to 3A of load
3A Output Current, 5.2A Peak Current
current. The current mode control loop is externally
130 m/110 m Integrated Power MOSFETs
compensated with only two components, offering both
high performance and ease of use. The device is
94% Peak Efficiency with Synchronous
optimized to work over the input voltage range of

systems.
Current Mode Control, Selectable
The device features internal Over Voltage Protection
Compensation
(OVP) and Over Current Protection (OCP) circuits for
Oscillator Synchronization from 250kHz to
increased system reliability. A precision Enable pin

and integrated UVLO allows the turn on of the device
to be tightly controlled and sequenced. Startup inrush

Precision Enable Pin with Hysteresis
The LM20333 is designed to work well in multi-rail
OVP, UVLO Inputs and PGOOD Output
power supply architectures. The output voltage of the
device can be configured to track a higher voltage rail
