GENERAL DESCRIPTION

AMS4122 is a dual switching regulator capable to deliver 2A for each channel. Internally Compensated internal Soft Start makes AMS4122 one of the simplest and easiest switching regulators to use with the minimum external components. Each regulator has independent hiccup current limit. The Enable pin turns both devices on when a voltage of 2.5V or higher it is applied to EN pin. Since both devices share one single package the thermal protection turns off both devices when the die temperature exceeds approximately 135°C. Both regulators are adjustable using a 0.600V reference for low output voltage settings. The oscillators are 180° phase to each other to reduce the ripples on the input power supply and minimize the power dissipation on the package.
