Dual PWM Step-Down DC/DCs in TDFN33
FEATURES
•
Multiple Patents Pending
•
Two Integrated Step-Down DC/DC Converters
−
REG1: 350mA
−
REG2: 550mA
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The patent-pending ACT8325 integrates two step-
down DC/DCs into a single, thin, space-saving
package to provide a cost-effective, highly-efficient
ActivePMU
TM
power management solution. This
device is ideal for a wide range of portable hand-
held equipment that can benefit from the advan-
tages of
ActivePMU
technology but do not require a
high level of integration.
REG1 and REG2 are fixed-frequency, current-mode
PWM step-down DC/DC converters that are opti-
mized for high efficiency and are capable of supply-
ing up to 350mA and 550mA, respectively. Both
outputs are available in a wide range of factory-
preset output voltage options, and an adjustable
output voltage mode is also available.
The ACT8325 is available in a tiny 3mm x 3mm
10-pin Thin-DFN package that is just 0.75mm thin.
