V1.0 May.2014 1 PAM2401 EVB User Guide CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION 2. PAM2401 General Description The PAM2401 is a high efficiency, current mode, fixed frequency, step-up DC/DC converter with true output disconnect and inrush current limiting. The device includes one 0.10Ω N-channel MOSFET switch and one 0.15Ω P-channel synchronous rectifier. This product has the ability to simply program the output voltage from 2.5V to 5.0V.The switching frequency is 1.0MHz programmable current limit set by an external resistor from 1.0A to 3.0A with internal soft-start. When loading became light, the converter will automatically enter into PSM to improve the efficiency. Quiescent current is only 150uA during Pulse Skip Mode operation, maximizing battery life in portable applications. Other features include:<1uA shutdown, anti-ringing control, Hiccup mode at short protection, over voltage protection and over temperature protection. The P AM2401 is available in MSOP-8 and U-DFN3030-12 packages 3.

(2) Low leakage current needed, X5R/X7R ceramic recommend, multiple capacitor parallel connection. (3) For output lower than 4.2V application, the minimum value of output capacitor should more than 32uF at least. Output Voltage programmer resistors (R1/2, R2/3) (1) For programmer output voltage (2) For accurate output voltage, 1% tolerance is required. Inductor (L1) (1) Low DCR for good efficiency (2) Inductance saturate current must higher than the output current Current Limit Set resistor (R3/4) (1) Rset floating or Rset >200K, Ilimit=3A (2) Rset=100K, Ilimit=1.5A (3) Rset=66K, Ilimit=1A 9.
