A6902D13TR

The A6902D is a complete and simple step down switching regulator with adjustable current limit. Based on a voltage mode structure it integrates a current error amplifier to have a constant voltage and constant current control. By means of an on board current sense resistor and the availability of the current sense pins (both compatible to Vcc and for Cs- compatible with GND too) a current limit programming is very simple and accurate. Moreover constant current control can be used to charge NiMH and NiCd batteries.The device can be used as a standard DC/DC converter with adjustable current limit (set by using the external sense resistor). The internal robust P-channel DMOS transistor with a typical of 250 mO assures high efficiency and a minimum dropout even at high output current level. The internal limiting current (latched function) of typical value of 2.5 A protects the device from accidental output short circuit avoiding dangerous loads damage. If the temperature of the chip goes higher than a fixed internal threshold (150 °C with 20 °C hysteresis), the power stage is turned off.Other protections beside thermal shutdown complete the device for a safe and reliable application: overvoltage protection, frequency folback overcurrent protection and protection vs. feedback disconnection. The internal fixed switching frequency of 250 kHz, and the SO-8 package pin allow to built an ultra compact DC/DC converter with a minimum board space.
