Application Note: AN_ SY8388A
High Efficiency Fast Response, 8A, 24V Input Synchronous Step Down Regulator
General Description
SY8388A develops a high efficiency synchronous stepdown DC/DC regulator capable of delivering 8A current over a wide input voltage range of 4V to 24V.
Silergy’s proprietary Instant-PWM™ fast-response, constant-on-time (COT) PWM control method supports high input/output voltage ratios (low duty cycles), and fast transient response while maintaining a near constant operating frequency over line, load and output voltage ranges. This control method provides stable operation without complex compensation and even with low ESR ceramic capacitors.
