DESCRIPTION
The ST763A is a step-down switching regulator . It
operates from 3.3V to 11V giving a fixed 3.3V
output voltage, delivering up to 500mA. The
mainly features are typical efficiency of 90%,
quiescent current of 0.6mA, and only 0.2µA in
shut-down.
The PWM current mode control provides precise
output regulation and very good transient
response. Output voltage accuracy is guaranteed
to be ±5% over line, load and temperature
variations. A minimum number of external
components is used and the fixed frequency
switching allows easy filtering of output ripple and
noise.
Other features of this ddevice are cycle-by-clicle
current limiting, overcurrent limiting, under voltage
lockout and programmable soft-start protection.
A 22µH inductor works in most applications, so no
sophisticated design is necessary.
Package available are SO-8 and DIP-8.
Typical application are in 5V to 3.3V converters,
cellular phones, portable instruments, hand-held
computers, and peripherals.
