FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LMR12010 regulator is a monolithic, high
23
Input Voltage Range of 3V to 20V
frequency, PWM step-down DC/DC converter in a 6-
Output Voltage Range of 0.8V to 17V
pin Thin SOT-23 package. It provides all the active
Output Current Up to 1A
functions to provide local DC/DC conversion with fast
transient response and accurate regulation in the
1.6MHz (LMR12010X) and 3 MHz (LMR12010Y)
smallest possible PCB area.
