Description

This evaluation board, based on the ST1S09
family of synchronous step-down DC-DC
converters, is optimized for powering all low­voltage applications and, generally, replaces high
current linear solutions when power dissipation
may cause high heating of the application
environment.

Data Brief

STEVAL-ISA045V2

It provides up to 2 A over an input voltage range
of 2.7 V to 5.5 V.

A high 1.5 MHz switching frequency allows the
use of tiny surface-mount components and in
addition to the resistor divider to set the output
voltage value, an inductor and two capacitors are
required.

A low output ripple is guaranteed by the current
mode PWM topology and by the use of low ESR
surface-mount ceramic capacitors.

The device is thermally protected and current
limited to prevent damage due to accidental short­circuit.

The ST1S09 family is available in the DFN6 3x3
package.
