CS51033
CS51033
Fast PFET Buck Controller
Does Not Require Compensation
Description
The CS51033 is a switching con-
troller for use in DC-DC converters.
It can be used in the buck topology
with a minimum number of exter-
nal components. The CS51033 con-
sists of a 1.0A power driver for con-
trolling the gate of a discrete P-
channel transistor, fixed frequency
oscillator, short circuit protection
timer, programmable soft start, pre-
cision reference, fast output voltage
monitoring comparator, and output
stage driver logic with latch.
The high frequency oscillator
allows the use of small inductors
and output capacitors, minimizing
PC board area and systems cost.
The programmable soft start
reduces current surges at start up.
The short circuit protection timer
significantly reduces the PFET duty
cycle to approximately 1/30 of its
normal cycle during short circuit
conditions.
The CS51033 is available in 8L SO
and 8L PDIP plastic packages.
