Texas Instruments LMZ23608

Description

The LMZ23608 SIMPLE SWITCHER© power module is an easy-to-use step-down DC-DC solution capable of driving up to 8A load. The LMZ23608 is available in an innovative package that enhances thermal performance and allows for hand or machine soldering.

The LMZ23608 can accept an input voltage rail between 6V and 36V and deliver an adjustable and highly accurate output voltage as low as 0.8V. The LMZ23608 only requires two external resistors and three external capacitors to complete the power solution. The LMZ23608 is a reliable and robust design with the following protection features: thermal shutdown, input under-voltage lockout, output over-voltage protection, short-circuit protection, output current limit, and allows startup into a pre-biased output. The sync input allows synchronization over the 350 to 600 kHz switching frequency range.
