1.5MHz, slope compensated current mode
PWM step-down converter working under an
input voltage range of 2.5V to 5.5V. This
feature makes the BL3406B suitable for
single cell Li-ion battery-powered applications.
The internal synchronous rectifier is desired
to increase efficiency without an external
Schottky diode. 100% duty cycle capability
extends battery life in portable devices, while
the quiescent current is 180µA at no load,
and drops to < 1µA in shutdown. Pulse
Skipping Mode operation increases efficiency
at light loads, further extending battery life.
The BL3406B is offered in a low profile (1mm)
5-pin, thin SOT23 package, and is available
in an adjustable version and fixed output
versions of 1.0V, 1.2V, 1.5V , 1.8V, 2.5V and

Power Switch Output. It is the switch node connection to external inductor. This
pin connects to the drains of the internal P-Channel and N-Channel MOSFET
switches.
Supply Input Pin. Must be closely decoupled to GND, Pin 2, with a 2.2µF or
greater ceramic capacitor.
VFB (BL3406B-Adj): Feedback Input Pin. Connect FB to the center point of the
external resistor divider. The regulated voltage on this pin is 0.6V.

(BL3406B-1.2/BL3406B-1.5/BL3406B-1.8): Output Voltage Feedback Pin.
OUT
An internal resistive divider divides the output voltage down for comparison to the
internal reference voltage.
