General Description

The AOZ2380QI is a high-efficiency, easy-to-use DC/DC

synchronous buck regulator that operates over a wide 6.5V

to 24V voltage range.The device is capable of supplying

35A of continuous output current with an output voltage

adjustable down to 0.6V (±1.0).

The AOZ2380QI integrates an internal linear regulator to

generate 5.3V VCC from input. If input voltage is lower than

5.3V, the linear regulator operates at low drop output mode,

which allows the VCC voltage is equal to input voltage minus

the drop-output voltage of the internal linear regulator.

A proprietary constant on-time PWM control with input

feed-forward results in ultra-fast transient response while

maintaining relatively constant switching frequency over

the entire input voltage range. A low 80ns minimum on-time

enables very low output voltages at ultra-high operating

frequencies.

Integrated AC ripple injection enables all-ceramic low ESR

output filter capacitors and smaller PCB footprint with no

external components needed.

Selectable PFM mode optimizes light load efficiency while

forced PWM mode maintains constant frequency for lower

harmonic noise.

The device features multiple protection functions such as

VCC under-voltage lockout, cycle-by-cycle current limit,

output over-voltage protection, short-circuit protection, and

thermal shutdown.

The AOZ2380QI is available in a 5mm×5mm QFN_28L

package and is rated over a -40°C to +85°C ambient

temperature range.
