Table 1. Input Voltage and Output Current Summary
1 Introduction
This user’s guide contains background information for the
NN30312A : 10A Synchronous DCDC Step Down Regulator with Integrated Power MOSFET
as well as support documentation for the NN30312A Evaluation Board (EVB-NN30312A). Also included are the schematic, the test set-
up, the bill of materials and the Board Layout for the Evaluation Board.
1.1 Overview
NN30312A is a synchronous DCDC Step Down Regulator (1-ch) with integrated power MOSFETs, which employs hysteretic control
system. By this system, when load current changes suddenly, it responds at high speed and minimizes the changes of output voltage.
Since it is possible to use capacitors with small capacitance and it is unnecessary to add external parts for system phase compensation,
this IC realizes downsizing of set and reducing in the number of external parts.
Output voltage is adjustable by user. Maximum current is 10 A.
