PRELIMINARY DATASHEET
DESCRIPTION
The US3036 IC
provides an 8 pin low cost switching
controller with true short circuit protection all in a
compact 8 pin surface mount package,
providing a
low cost switching solution
for applications that re-
quire a simple switching regulator from the 5V input where
there is no other supply available. One type of such
application is generating 2.5V standby from the dual
5V(5V and 5V standby) for the next generation proces-
sors. The IC starts below 4.5V supply and drives an
external Pch MOSFET or and external low cost PNP as
the switching element. The IC also includes an error com-
parator for fast transient response, a precise voltage ref-
erence for setting the output voltage as well as a direct
drive of the MOSFET for the minimum part count.
APPLICATIONS
Single input Switching Regulators such as Simple
5V to 2.5V switcher for RDRAM regulator
