ACT8325
Product Brief, 16-Nov-07
Advanced Information–All Information Subject to Change
Dual PWM Step-Down DC/DCs in TDFN33
FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
• Multiple Patents Pending
The patent-pending ACT8325 integrates two stepdown DC/DCs into a single, thin, space-saving
package to provide a cost-effective, highly-efficient
ActivePMUTM power management solution. This
device is ideal for a wide range of portable handheld equipment that can benefit from the advantages of ActivePMU technology but do not require a
high level of integration.
• Two Integrated Step-Down DC/DC Converters
− REG1: 350mA
− REG2: 550mA
• 180° Out-of-Phase Operation
− Reduces Input Capacitor Requirements
• Fixed or Adjustable Output Voltage Options
REG1 and REG2 are fixed-frequency, current-mode
PWM step-down DC/DC converters that are optimized for high efficiency and are capable of supplying up to 350mA and 550mA, respectively. Both
outputs are available in a wide range of factorypreset output voltage options, and an adjustable
output voltage mode is also available.
• Independent Enable/Disable Control
• Minimal External Components
• 3x3mm, Thin-DFN (TDFN33-10) Package
− Only 0.75mm Height
− RoHS-Compliant
The ACT8325 is available in a tiny 3mm x 3mm
10-pin Thin-DFN package that is just 0.75mm thin.
APPLICATIONS
• Portable Devices and PDAs
• MP3/MP4 Players
• Wireless Handhelds
• GPS Receivers
