General Description

The LM2655 is a current-mode controlled PWM step-down

switching regulator. It has the unique ability to operate in

synchronous or asynchronous mode. This gives the designer

flexibility to choose between the high efficiency of

synchronous operation, or the low solution cost of asynchronous

operation. Along with flexibility, the LM2655 offers high

power density with the small footprint of a TSSOP-16 package.

High efficiency (>90%) is obtained through the use of an

internal low ON-resistance (33mΩ) MOSFET, and an external

N-Channel MOSFET. This feature, together with its low

quiescent current, makes the LM2655 an ideal fit in portable

applications.

Integrated in the LM2655 are all the power, control, and drive

functions for asynchronous operation. In addition, a low-side

driver output allows easy synchronous operation. The IC

uses patented current sensing circuitry that eliminates the

external current sensing resistor required by other currentmode

DC-DC converters. A programmable soft-start feature

limits start up current surges and provides a means of sequencing

multiple power supplies.
