Description
The AP3015/A are Pulse Frequency Modulation
(PFM) DC/DC converters. These two devices are functionally
equivalent except the switching current limit.
The AP3015 is designed for higher power systems
with 350mA current limit, and the AP3015A is for
lower power systems with 100mA current limit.
The AP3015/A feature a wide input voltage. The operation
voltage is ranged from 1.2Vto 12V (1V to 12V
for AP3015A). A current limited, fixed off-time control
scheme conserves operating current, resulting in
high efficiency over a broad range of load current.
They also feature low quiescent current, switching current
limiting, low temperature coefficient, etc.
Fewer tiny external components are required in the
applications to save space and lower cost.
Furthermore, to ease its use in differnet systems, a disable
terminal is designed to turn on or turn off the chip.
The AP3015/A are available in SOT-23-5 package.
