GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AMS4122 is a dual switching regulator capable to deliver 2A for each channel. Internally Compensated internal Soft Start
makes AMS4122 one of the simplest and easiest switching regulators to use with the minimum external components. Each
regulator has independent hiccup current limit. The Enable pin turns both devices on when a voltage of 2.5V or higher it is
applied to EN pin. Since both devices share one single package the thermal protection turns off both devices when the die
temperature exceeds approximately 135°C. Both regulators are adjustable using a 0.600V reference for low output voltage
settings. The oscillators are 180° phase to each other to reduce the ripples on the input power supply and minimize the power
dissipation on the package. The device can be easily configured for Two Phase single output switching regulator capable of 5A
output load. By applying a 2.5V or greater on feedback pin of the second switching regulator the device enters in Two Phase
Mode. The first benefit of having a Two Phase device is reducing the output ripples by a factor of four as the single phase. The
second benefit is higher output current capability at overall low cost. AMS4122 combined with AMS4123 (2A Switching
Regulator + 1A LDO in SO-8) makes complete solution for LCD TV power requirements.

F/B2
Feedback2. A resistor network of two resistors is used to set-up the output voltage
connected between Output2 to GND. The node between the two resistors is connected to
Feedback2 pin. In Two Phase Mode F/B2 should be connected to a voltage 2.5V or
higher
5
F/B1
Feedback1. A resistor network of two resistors is used to set-up the output voltage
connected between Output1 to GND. The node between the two resistors is connected to
Feedback1 pin.

Enable. A voltage greater than 2.5V at this pin enables both devices operation.

PVIN SW1/AVIN
Input Power Pin for SW1 and Analog Input Voltage that powers up the chip
8
SW1
This connects the inductor the Internal Switch1
RECOMMANDED OPERATING CONDITIONS: The minimum input voltage should be 4.5V, however the device will
function as low as 4.0V. The maximum operating voltage should be 16V, the device will work at 17V but the switching loss is
higher. The best performance is at 1.5A output load per channel; however it works well with 2A load per channel. The minimum
supply voltage is Vout +1Vfor 1A load and Vout +1.1V for 2A load but higher than 4.0V. There is an internal UVLO that will
turn off the device if the input voltage is below 4.0V. When the input voltage exceeds 12V the output load current should be
maintain below 1.5A, due to switching loss the device will have lower performance.

Notes: 1) When a 1.3V or greater is applied to F/B2, the device enters in Two Phase Mode of operation.
2) The oscillators for each switching regulator are shifted by 180º of each-other to accommodate dual phase operation and reduce the ripples in the input
power supply.
3) The power dissipation for SO-8 EDP package is limited to 2.5W rated at 25°C ambient temperatures. The thermal resistance Junction to Case is
45°C/W. Total power dissipation for both switching regulators should be taken in consideration when calculating the output current for each regulator.
4) The load current is specified for two output configuration. In two phase single output the maximum load current is double.
