GM7230 3A STEP-DOWN VOLTAGE REGULATOR Power Management Features Description 3.3V, 5V, 12V and Adjustable output versions The GM7230 series of regulators provide all the active functions for a step-down (buck) switching regulator, and drive 3A load with excellent line and load regulation. GM7230's are available in fixed output voltages of 3.3V, 5V, 12V, and a versatile Adjustable output version. Adjustable version output voltage range 1.23V to 37V 4% max over line and load conditions 3A output current Input voltage range up to 40V These regulators are simple to use and require a minimum number of external components. Features include internal frequency compensation and a fixed-frequency oscillator. The GM7230 series are high-efficiency replacements for popular three-terminal linear regulators, requiring a smaller heatsink or even no heatsink. The GM7230's perform well with standard inductors from several manufacturers, simplifying the design of switchmode power supplies. The GM7230 series guarantee ±4% tolerance on output voltage within specified input voltages and output load conditions, and ±10% on the oscillator frequency. Requires only 4 external components High efficiency TTL shutdown capability, low power standby mode Thermal shutdown, current limit protection Uses standard inductors 150 kHz fixed frequency internal oscillator External shutdown is included, with 80 µA (typical) standby current. The output switch has cycle-by-cycle current limiting, as well as thermal shutdown for full protection under fault conditions.

Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is intended to be functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. Note 2: The human body model is a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5k resistor into each pin. Note 3: Typical numbers are at 25°C and represent the most likely norm. Note 4: All limits guaranteed at room temperature (standard type face) and at temperature extremes (bold type face). All room temperature limits are 100% production tested. All limits at temperature extremes are guaranteed via correlation using standard Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods. All limits are used to calculate Average Outgoing Quality Level (AOQL). Note 5: External components such as the catch diode, inductor, input and output capacitors, and voltage programming resistors can affect switching regulator system performance. When the GM7230 is used as shown in the Figure 1 test circuit, system performance will be as shown in system parameters section of Electrical Characteristics. Note 6: The switching frequency is reduced when the second stage current limit is activated. Note 7: No diode, inductor or capacitor connected to output pin. Note 8: Feedback pin removed from output and connected to 0V to force the output transistor switch ON. Note 9: Feedback pin removed from output and connected to 12V for the 3.3V, 5V, and the ADJ. version, and 15V for the 12V version, to force the output transistor switch OFF. Note 10: VIN = 40V.

GM7230 ON/OFF Pin Input Current 5 GM7230 TEST CIRCUIT AND LAYOUT GUIDELINES Careful layout is important with any switching regulator. Rapidly switching currents associated with wiring inductance generate voltage transients which can cause problems. To minimize inductance and ground loops, the lengths of the leads indicated by heavy lines in Figure 1 below should be kept as short as possible. Singlepoint grounding (as indicated in Figure 1) or ground plane construction should be used for best results. When using the Adjustable version, place the programming resistors as close as possible to the GM7230, to keep the sensitive feedback wiring short. Figure 1(a).
