The SC4524CSETRT is a constant frequency peak current-mode step-down Switching Regulator capable of producing 2A output current from an input ranging from 3 to 28V. The switching frequency of the SC4524C can be programmed up to 2MHz for component miniaturization or it can be set at lower frequencies to accommodate high step-down ratios. The peak current-mode PWM control employed in the SC4524C achieves fast transient response with simple loop compensation. Cycle-by-cycle current limiting and hiccup overload protection reduces power dissipation during output overload. Soft-start function reduces input startup current and prevents the output from overshooting during power-up.
