Description

The LXDC3EP series is a 1A output step-down DCDC converter, which is suitable for a space-limited or a noisesensitive application. The device utilizes an inductor-embedded ferrite substrate, and the substrate eliminates radiated EMI noise and conduction noise efficiently.

By just putting this device, it can be used as a LDO replacement. Its low noise feature and easy to assembly feature assures reliable power supply quality.

The LXDC3EP series has a mode pin that allows the user to select Forced PWM mode or Power-Save mode that changes modes between pulse-skip operation and forced PWM operation automatically depending on the load.

In Power-Save mode, LXDC3EP series offers superior efficiency under light load condition, and it extends the battery life. When Forced PWM mode is selected, it works at fixed frequency (4MHz) over all load range. The advantages of this mode are easy filtering of switching frequency and better load transient response.

The integrated over current protection and the thermal shutdown protection features offer a reliable power supply operation.
