respectively. Each switching section delivers more
than 2.5 A output current.
An internal linear regulator provides a fixed 5 V
output voltage. Another internal linear regulator
provides an adjustable output voltage (default 2.5
V). Both linear regulators can deliver up to 100
mA peak current.
Data brief
Description
This demonstration board is based on the
PM6681A, a dual step-down controller with
adjustable output voltages that can be used in
industrial power systems. The PM6681A
demonstration board allows testing all the
device's functions and provides two switching
sections, with (typically) 3.3 V (OUT1) and 1.8 V
(OUT2) outputs from 5.5 V to 36 V input voltage.
The typical operating switching frequency of the
two available sections is 200 kHz/300 kHz,
