Synchronous Buck Regulator 10-Pin MSOP T/R

The TC1303 combines a 500 mA synchronous buck regulator and 300 mA Low-Dropout Regulator (LDO) with a power-good monitor to provide a highly integrated solution for devices that require multiple supply voltages. The unique combination of an integrated buck switching regulator and low-dropout linear regulator provides the lowest system cost for dual-output voltage applications that require one lower processor core voltage and one higher bias voltage. The 500 mA synchronous buck regulator switches at a fixed frequency of 2.0 MHz when the load is heavy, providing a low noise, small-size solution. When the load on the buck output is reduced to light levels, it changes operation to a Pulse Frequency Modulation (PFM) mode to minimize quiescent current draw from the battery. No intervention is necessary for smooth transition from one mode to another. The LDO provides a 300 mA auxiliary output that requires a single 1 µF ceramic output capacitor, minimizing board area and cost. The typical dropout voltage for the LDO output is 137 mV for a 200 mA load. For the TC1303, the power-good output is based on the regulation of the buck regulator output, the LDO output or the combination of both. The TC1304 features start-up and shutdown output sequencing. The TC1303/TC1304 is available in either the 10-pin DFN or MSOP package. Additional protection features include: UVLO, overtemperature and overcurrent protection on both outputs.
