AAT2513
Dual 600mA Step-Down
Converter with Synchronization
General Description
The AAT2513 is a high efficiency dual synchronous
step-down converter for applications where power
efficiency, thermal performance and solution size
are critical. Input voltage ranges from 2.7V to 5.5V,
making it ideal for systems powered by single-cell
lithium-ion/polymer batteries.
Each converter is capable of 600mA output current
and has its own enable pin. Efficiency of the con-
verters is optimized over full load range. Total no
load quiescent current is 60µA, allowing high effi-
ciency even under light load conditions.
The integrated power switches are controlled by
pulse width modulation (PWM) with a 1.7MHz typi-
cal switching frequency at full load, which minimizes
the size of external components. Fixed frequency,
low noise operation can be forced by a logic signal
on the MODE pin. Furthermore, an external clock
can be used to synchronize the switching frequency
of both converters.
A phase shift pin (PS) is available to operate the
two converters 180° out of phase at heavy load to
achieve low input ripple.
The AAT2513 is available in a Pb-free, thermally
enhanced 16-pin QFN33 package and is specified
for operation over the -40°C to +85°C temperature
range.
