Description
This evaluation board, based on the ST1S09I	STEVAL-ISA046V2
family of synchronous step-down DC-DC
converters, is optimized for powering all low-
voltage applications and, generally, replaces high
current linear solutions when power dissipation
may cause high heating of the application
environment. 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.
The ST1S09I features an inhibit function.
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 short-
circuit.
The ST1S09 family is available in the DFN6 3x3
package.
