General Description
The AME5248A is a fixed-frequency current mode syn-
chronous PWM step down converter that is capable of
delivering 600mA output current while achieving peak effi-
ciency of 95%. Under light load conditions, the AME5248A
operates in a power saving mode that consumes just
around 20µA of supply current, maximizing battery life in
portable applications. The AME5248A operates with a
fixed frequency of 1.5MHz, minimizing noise in noise-
sensitive applications and allowing the use of small ex-
ternal components. The AME5248A is an ideal solution
for applications powered by Li-Ion batteries or other por-
table applications that require small board space.
The AME5248A is available in a variety of fixed output
voltage options, 1.0V, 1.2V, 1.3V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V, 2.7V,
2.8V, and 3.3V, and is also available in an adjustable
output voltage version capable of generating output volt-
ages from 0.5V to V

. The AME5248A is available in the
tiny 5-pin SOT-25 and TSOT-25 package.
