Description

The AP3440 is a current mode, PWM synchronous buck (step-down) DC-DC converter, capable of driving a 4A load with high efficiency, excellent line and load regulation.

The device integrates two N-channel power MOSFETs with low on-resistance. Current mode control provides fast transient response and cycle-by-cycle current limit.

The switching frequency of AP3440 can be programmable from 200kHz to 2MHz, which allows small-sized components, such as capacitors and inductors. A standard series of inductors from several different manufacturers are available. This feature greatly simplifies the design of switch-mode power supplies.

Under voltage lockout is internally set at 2.6V, but can be increased by programming the threshold with a resistor network on the enable pin. The output voltage startup ramp is controlled by the soft-start pin. An open drain power good signal indicates the output is within 93% to 107% of its nominal voltage.

The AP3440 is available in U-QFN3030-16 package.
