3 Description

The LM26001 is a switching regulator designed for

the high-efficiency requirements of applications with

standby modes. The device features a low-current sleep mode to maintain efficiency under light-load

conditions and current-mode control for accurate

regulation over a wide input voltage range. Quiescent

current is reduced to 10 μA typically in shutdown

mode and less than 40 μA in sleep mode. Forced

PWM mode is also available to disable sleep mode.

The LM26001 can deliver up to 1.5 A of continuous

load current with a fixed current limit, through the

internal N-channel switch. The part has a wide input

voltage range of 4.0 V to 38 V and can operate with

input voltages as low as 3 V during line transients.

Operating frequency is adjustable from 150 kHz to

500 kHz with a single resistor and can be synchronized to an external clock.

Other features include Power Good, adjustable soft-

start, enable pin, input undervoltage protection, and

an internal bootstrap diode for reduced component

count.
