DESCRIPTION
The L4962 is a monolithic power switching regula-
tor delivering 1.5A at a voltage variable from 5V to
40V in step down configuration.
Features of the device include current limiting, soft
start, thermal protection and 0 to 100% duty cycle
for continuous operating mode.

Vertical)
L4962EH/A (Horizontal
Heptawatt)
The L4962 is mounted in a 16-lead Powerdip plastic
package and Heptawatt package and requires very
few external components.
Efficient operation at switching frequencies up to
150KHz allows a reduction in the size and cost of
external filter components.

FUNCTION
1 7 SUPPLY VOLTAGE Unregulated voltage input. An internal regulator powers
the internal logic.
2 10 FEEDBACK INPUT The feedback terminal of the regulation loop. The output
is connected directly to this terminal for 5.1V operation;
it is connected via a divider for higher voltages.
3 11 FREQUENCY
COMPENSATION
A series RC network connected between this terminal
and ground determines the regulation loop gain
characteristics.

5 14 OSCILLATOR A parallel RC network connected to this terminal
determines the switching frequency. This pin must be
connected to pin 7 input when the internal oscillator is
used.
6 15 SOFT START Soft start time constant. A capacitor is connected
between this terminal and ground to define the soft start
time constant. This capacitor also determines the
average short circuit output current.
