General Description
The EL7558BC is an adjustable synchronous DC:DC switching regulator optimized for a 5V input and 1.0V-3.8V output. By combining
integrated NMOS power FETS with a HSOP package the EL7558BC
can supply up to 8A continuous output current without the use of
external power devices or externally attached heat sinks, thereby minimizing design effort and overall system cost.
On-chip resistorless current sensing is used to achieve stable, highly
efficient, current-mode control. The EL7558BC also incorporates the
VCC2DET function to directly interface with the Intel P54 and P55
microprocessors. Depending on the state of VCC2DET, the output
voltage is internally preset to 3.50V or a user-adjustable voltage using
two external resistors. In both internal and external feedback modes
the active-high PWRGD output indicates when the regulator output is
within ±10% of the programmed voltage. An on-board sensor monitors die temperature (OT) for over-temperature conditions and can be
connected directly to OUTEN to provide automatic thermal shutdown.
Adjustable oscillator frequency and slope compensation allow added
flexibility in overall system design.
The EL7558BC is available in the 28-pin HSOP package and is specified for operation over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
