General Description
The AAT2503 is a three-channel regulator consisting of a
step-down converter with an input voltage range of 2.7V
to 5.5V plus two low dropout (LDO) linear regulators.
The step-down converter optimizes power efficiency
throughout the load range. Pulling the MODE/SYNC pin
high enables “PWM Only” mode, maintaining constant
frequency and low output ripple across the operating
range. Alternatively, the converter may be synchronized
to an external clock input to the MODE/SYNC pin. The
step-down converter delivers up to 800mA of output cur-
rent, while consuming 30μA of typical no load quiescent
current. The switching frequency is 2MHz, minimizing
the size of external components.
The two LDOs (LDOA/LDOB) have independent inputs
and are capable of delivering up to 150mA each. Ultra
low input voltage on the VLDOA and VLDOB pins (down
to 1.62V) allows for efficient post-buck regulation. A
Power-OK (POK) function provides an open drain output
signal when LDOA is within regulation. Both LDOs fea-
ture low quiescent current and a low dropout voltage.
The output voltages for both LDOs are adjustable to as
low as 0.6V. The linear regulators have independent
Enable pins.
The AAT2503 is available in a Pb-free 3x4mm QFN34-20
package and is rated over the -40°C to +85°C tempera-
ture range.
