Description
L6727 is a single-phase step-down controller with integrated high-current drivers that provides complete control logic, protections and reference voltage to realize in an easy and simple way general DC-DC converters by using a compact SO-8 package.
Device flexibility allows managing conversions with power input V supply voltage in the range of 5V to 12V.
L6727 provides simple control loop with voltage­mode error-amplifier. The integrated 0.8V reference allows regulating output voltages with ±1% accuracy over line and temperature variations. Oscillator is internally fixed to 300kHz.

L6727 provides programmable over current protection as well as over and under voltage protection. Current information is monitored across the Low-Side mosfet R
saving the use

of expensive and space-consuming sense resistors while output voltage is monitored through FB pin.
FB disconnection protection prevents excessive and dangerous output voltages in case of floating FB pin.
