The SP6136 is a synchronous step-down switching regulator controller optimized for high efficiency. The part is designed to be especially attractive for single supply step-down conversion from 5V to 24V. The SP6136 is designed to drive a pair of external NFETs using a fixed 600kHz frequency, PWM voltage mode architecture. Protection features include UVLO, thermal shutdown, output short circuit protection and overcurrent protection with auto restart. The device also features a PWRGD output and an enable input. The SP6136 is available in a space saving 6-pin QFN and offers excellent thermal performance.

  • 5V to 24V input step-down converter
  • Up to 7A output in a small form factor
  • Highly integrated design, minimal components
  • UVLO detects both VCC and VIN
  • Overcurrent circuit protection with auto restart
  • Power good output, ENABLE input
  • Maximum controllable duty cycle ratio up to 92%
  • Wide BW amp allows Type II or III compensation
  • Programmable soft-start
  • Fast transient response
  • Available in 16-Pin QFN package
  • External driver enable/disable
  • U.S. Patent #6,922,041
