step-down (Buck) convertor in SOT-26 package, with
high efficiency and fast transient response. A7221A
operates over a wide input voltage range from 4.5V to
16V and integrates main switch and synchronous
switch with very low R
DS(ON)
conduction loss. A7221A adopts the active constant
on time PWM architecture to achieve fast transient
responses for high step down applications and high
efficiency at light loads. In addition, it keeps in
constant frequency of 500kHz under heavy load
conditions to minimize the size of inductor and
capacitor. Fault conditions also include cycle-by-cycle
current limit, output under voltage protection, output
over current protection, output short-circuit protection
and thermal shutdown
