Description
The DCP3603 is a wide-input voltage, easy-to-use synchronous buck converter capable of driving up to 3 A load current.
The extended input range from 3.3 V to 36 V makes the device suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
The DCP3603 operates at 500 kHz or 1.0 MHz fixed switching frequency allowing the use of small inductors for an optimized solution size.
Optional switching frequency dithering is implemented to improve EMI performances.
It is based on a peak current mode architecture, including soft-start circuit, overcurrent protection circuit, overtemperature protection and output overvoltage protection, and is packaged in a SOT23-6L package.
