Description The AP1509 are a fully integrated step-down DC/DC converter, with the ability to drive 2A load without the need of additional driver components. The AP1509 operates at a switching frequency of 150KHZ enabling the use of small size filter components. As a result, board space is reduced and BOM costs are lowered. 2. EVM Schematic Figure 1.
