NCP1450A/D
NCP1450A
PWM Step−up DC−DC
Controller
The NCP1450A series are PWM step−up DC−DC switching
controller that are specially designed for powering portable equipment
from one or two cells battery packs. The NCP1450A series have a
driver pin, EXT pin, for connecting to an external transistor. Large
output currents can be obtained by connecting a low ON−resistance
external power transistor to the EXT pin. The device will
automatically skip switching cycles under light load condition to
maintain high efficiency at light loads. With only six external
components, this series allows a simple means to implement highly
efficient converter for large output current applications.
Each device consists of an on−chip Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)
oscillator, PWM controller, phase−compensated error amplifier,
soft−start, voltage reference, and driver for driving external power
transistor. Additionally, a chip enable feature is provided to power
down the converter for extended battery life.
The NCP1450A device series are available in the TSOP−5 package
with five standard regulated output voltages. Additional voltages that
range from 1.8 V to 5.0 V in 100 mV steps can be manufactured.
