BL8038
1A 2MHz 5.5V Synchronous Buck Converter
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The BL8038 is a high-efficiency, DC-to-DC stepdown switching regulators, capable of delivering up to 1A of output current. The device operates from an input voltage range of 2.6V to 5.5V and provides an output voltage from 0.6V to Vin.
Working at a fixed frequency of 2MHz allows the use of small external components, such as ceramic input and output caps, as well as small inductors, while still providing low output ripples. This low noise output along with its excellent efficiency achieved by the internal synchronous rectifier, making BL8038 an ideal replacement for large power consuming linear regulators.
Internal soft-start control circuitry reduces inrush current.
