3 Description

The LM636x5-Q1 is an easy-to-use, synchronous,

step-down DC/DC converter designed for rugged

automotive applications. The LM636x5-Q1 can drive

up to 1.5-A or 2.5-A of load current from an

input of up to 36 V. The converter has high light

load efficiency and output accuracy in a small

solution size. Features such as a RESET flag and

precision enable provide both flexible and easy-to-use

solutions for a wide range of applications. Automatic

frequency foldback at light load improves efficiency

while maintaining tight load regulation. Integration

eliminates many external components and provides

a pinout designed for simple PCB layout. Protection

features include thermal shutdown, input undervoltage

lockout, cycle-by-cycle current limit, and hiccup shortcircuit

protection. The LM636x5-Q1 is available in the

HTSSOP 16-pin power package, with PowerPAD? ,

and the WSON 12-pin power package.
