600mA Driver Tr. Built-In, Synchronous Step-Down DC/DC Converters
ETR0514-015
The XC9235/XC9236/XC9237 series is a group of synchronous-rectification type DC/DC converters with a built-in 0.42Ω
P-channel MOS driver transistor and 0.52ΩN-channel MOS switching transistor, designed to allow the use of ceramic
capacitors. Operating voltage range is from 2.0V to 6.0V (A½C types), 1.8V to 6.0V (D½G types). For the D/F types which
have a reference voltage of 0.8V (accuracy:
±2.0%),
the output voltage can be set from 0.9V by using two external resistors.
The A/B/C/E/G types have a fixed output voltage from 0.8V to 4.0V in increments of 0.05V (accuracy:
±2.0%).
The device
provides a high efficiency, stable power supply with an output current of 600mA to be configured using only a coil and two
capacitors connected externally.
With the built-in oscillator, either 1.2MHz or 3.0MHz can be selected for suiting to your
particular application. As for operation mode, the XC9235 series is PWM control, the XC9236 series is automatic PWM/PFM
switching control and the XC9237 series can be manually switched between the PWM control mode and the automatic
PWM/PFM switching control mode, allowing fast response, low ripple and high efficiency over the full range of loads (from light
load to heavy load).
The soft start and current control functions are internally optimized. During stand-by, all circuits are shutdown to reduce current
consumption to as low as 1.0μA or less. The B/F/G types have a high speed soft-start as fast as 0.25ms in typical for quick
turn-on. With the built-in UVLO (Under Voltage Lock Out) function, the internal P-channel MOS driver transistor is forced OFF
when input voltage becomes 1.4V or lower.
The B to G types integrate C
L
discharge function which enables the electric charge at the output capacitor C
L
to be discharged
via the internal discharge switch located between the L
X
and V
SS
pins. When the devices enter stand-by mode, output voltage
quickly returns to the V
SS
level as a result of this function.
Four types of package SOT-25, USP-6C, USP-6EL and WLP-5-03 are available.

* Please short the V
SS
pin (No. 2 and 5).
* The dissipation pad for the USP-6C/USP-6EL packages should be
solder-plated in recommended mount pattern and metal masking so as to
enhance mounting strength and heat release. We recommend keeping the
dissipation pas electrically isolated from the other Pins. If the pad needs to be
connected to other pins, it should be connected to the V
SS
(No. 5) pin.
