LLP package. It provides all the active functions to provide
accurate regulation in the smallest possible PCB area. With
use. The ability to drive 1.0A loads with an internal 130 m鈩?/div>
PMOS switch using state-of-the-art 0.5 碌m BiCMOS technol-
ogy results in the best power density available. The world-
class control circuitry allows on-times as low as 30ns, thus
supporting exceptionally high frequency conversion over the
entire 3V to 5.5V input operating range down to the minimum
output voltage of 0.6V. Switching frequency is internally set
to 1.6 MHz, or 3.0 MHz, allowing the use of extremely small
surface mount inductors and chip capacitors. Even though
the operating frequency is high, efficiencies up to 93% are
easy to achieve. External shutdown is included, featuring an
ultra-low stand-by current of 30 nA. The LM2830 utilizes
current-mode control and internal compensation to provide
high-performance regulation over a wide range of operating
conditions. Additional features include internal soft-start cir-
cuitry to reduce inrush current, pulse-by-pulse current limit,
thermal shutdown, and output over-voltage protection.
