Texas Instruments LM7360x-Q1 Step-Down Voltage Converters are easy-to-use synchronous step-down DC-DC converters capable of driving up to 5A (LM73605-Q1) or 6A (LM73606-Q1) of load current. This feature can be done from a supply voltage of 3.5V to 36V. The LM73605-Q1/LM73606-Q1 provides exceptional efficiency and output accuracy in a very small solution size. Peak current-mode control is employed. Additional features such as adjustable switching frequency, synchronization to an external clock, FPWM option, power-good flag, precision enable, adjustable soft start, and tracking provides both flexible and easy-to-use solutions for a wide range of applications. Automatic frequency foldback at light load and optional external bias improve efficiency over the entire load range. The family requires few external components and has a pinout designed for a simple PCB layout with optimal EMI and thermal performance. Protection features include thermal shutdown, input under voltage lockout, cycle-by-cycle current limiting, and hiccup short-circuit protection. The Texas Instruments LM73605-Q1 and LM73606-Q1 devices are pin-to-pin compatible for easy current scaling.
