S-8337/8338 Series
The S-8337/8338 Series is a CMOS step-up switching regulator which mainly
consists of a reference voltage circuit, an oscillator, an error amplifier, a PWM
controller, an under voltage lockout circuit (UVLO), and a timer latch short-circuit
protection circuit. Because its minimum operating voltage is as low as 1.8 V, this
switching regulator is ideal for the power supply of an LCD or for portable
systems that operate on a low voltage. The internal oscillation frequency can be
set up to 1.133 MHz, via the resistor connected to the ROSC pin.
With the S-8337 Series, the maximum duty ratio of PWM control can be
controlled by the resistor connected to the RDuty pin. With the S-8338 Series,
the maximum duty ratio is fixed (to 88%). The phase compensation and gain
value can be adjusted according to the values of the resistor and capacitor
connected to the CC pin. Therefore, the operation stability and transient
response can be correctly set for each application. The reference voltage
accuracy is as high as 1.0 V±1.5%, and any voltage can be output by using an
external output voltage setting resistor.
In addition, the delay time of the short-circuit protection circuit can be set by
using the capacitor connected to the CSP pin. If the maximum duty condition
continues because of short-circuiting, the capacitor externally connected to the
CSP pin is charged, and oscillation stops after a specific time. This condition is
cleared by re-application of power or by setting the switching regulator (S-8338
Series) to the shutdown status. A ceramic capacitor or a tantalum capacitor is
used as the output capacitor, depending on the setting. This controller IC allows
various settings and selections and employs a small package, making it very
easy to use.
