PAM2321 (Not Recommended for New Design (NRND))

Description

The PAM2321 is a 2A step-down converter with a typical input voltage of 3.3V and a fixed output voltage of 1.2V or an adjustable output. The 3MHz switching frequency enables the use of small external components. The ultra-small 3mmx3mm footprint and high efficiency make the PAM2321 an ideal choice for portable applications. The PAM2321 delivers 2A maximum output current while consuming only 55μA no-load quiescent current. Low RDS(ON) integrated MOSFETs and 100% duty cycle operation make the PAM2321 the ideal choice for high output voltage, high current applications which require a low dropout threshold. The PAM2321 provides excellent transient response and output accuracy across the operating range. The PAM2321 maintains high efficiency throughout the load range. The PAM2321 automatically optimizes efficiency during light load mode (PSM) and maintains constant frequency and low output ripple during PWM mode. Over-temperature and short circuit protection safeguard the PAM2321 and system components from damage. The PAM2321 are available in Pb-free, ultrasmall, low profile, TDFN3X3-10 packages. The product is rated over a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
