3 Description

The LMR436x0 is the industry smallest 36-V, 2-A,

and 1-A synchronous step-down DC/DC converters in

a 2-mm × 2-mm HotRod package. This easy-to-use

converter supports a wide input voltage range of 3.0 V

to 36 V with transients up to 42 V.

The control architecture and feature-set are optimized

for an ultra-small solution size. The device uses peak

current mode control to minimize output capacitance.

The LMR436x0 minimizes input filter size by using

dual random spread spectrum, a low-EMI HotRod

package, and an optimized pinout. The MODE/SYNC

and RT pin variants can be used to set or synchronize

the frequency between 200 kHz and 2.2 MHz to avoid

noise sensitive frequency bands.

The compact solution size and rich feature set of

LMR436x0 simplifies implementation for a wide range

of industrial applications.
