GENERAL DESCRIPTION
ACT4513 is a wide input voltage, high efficiency
Active CC step-down DC/DC converter that
operates in either CV (Constant Output Voltage)
mode or CC (Constant Output Current) mode.
ACT4513 provides up to 2A output current at
210kHz switching frequency.
Active CC is a patent-pending control scheme to
achieve highest accuracy sensorless constant
current control. Active CC eliminates the expensive,
high accuracy current sense resistor, making it ideal
for battery charging applications and adaptors with
accurate current limit. The ACT4513 achieves
higher efficiency than traditional constant current
switching regulators by eliminating its associated
power loss.
Protection features include cycle-by-cycle current
limit, thermal shutdown, and frequency foldback at
short circuit. The devices are available in a SOP-
8EP package and require very few external devices
for operation.
