DESCRIPTION
The L4971 is a step down monolithic power
switching regulator delivering 1.5A at a voltage
between 3.3V and 50V (selected by a simple external divider). Realized in BCD mixed technology, the device uses an internal power D-MOS
transistor (with a typical Rdson of 0.25Ω)toobtainvery high efficency and high switchingspeed.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONCIRCUIT
L4971
MinidipSO16W
ORDERING NUMBERS: L4971 (Minidip)
L4971D (SO16)
A switching frequency up to 500KHz is achievable (the maximum power dissipation of the packages must be observed).
A wide input voltage range between 8V to 55V
and output voltages regulated from 3.3V to 50V
cover the majority of today’sapplications.
Features of this new generations of DC-DC converter include pulse-by-pulse current limit, hiccup
mode for short circuit protection, voltage feedforward regulation, soft-start, protection against
feedback loop disconnection, inhibit for zero current consumption and thermal shutdown.
The device is available in plastic dual in line,
MINIDIP 8 for standard assembly, and SO16W
for SMD assembly.
