INTRODUCTION
The SMB206A/7A/8A are highly integrated and flexible dual-
output DC-DC regulators designed for use in a wide variety of
applications. High integration reduces system cost and
component count, while the built-in non-volatile digital
programmability cuts development time by allowing system
designers to custom tailor the device to suit almost any
application.
The SMB206A/7A/8A includes integrated high-side MOSFET
switches for up to 1A-3A continuous output current.
Programmable output voltages as low as +0.8V support the
latest VLSI digital cores. Minimum external components result
in a very compact solution size for space constrained
applications.
Sophisticated power control/monitoring functions required by

many systems are built-in and accessible via digital I C
interface. These include digitally programmable output voltage
setpoint,
power-up/down
softstart
and
sequencing,
independent enable/disable, output UV monitoring with
PowerGood/Reset output. Additionally, fine resolution voltage
margining is provided to allow for sophisticated system
optimization.
The integration of features and built-in flexibility of the
SMB206A/7A/8A allow the system designer to create a
“platform solution” that can be easily modified without
hardware changes. The SMB206A/7A/8A are well suited to
applications with an input range of +4.5V to +16V. The

operating temperature range is -40 C to +85 C and the
available packages are 3mm X 3mm 20-pad QFN or 6.5mm X
6.4mm TSSOP-24.
