PRODUCTION DATA
The LMR33640 is a synchronous peak-current-mode buck regulator designed for a wide variety of industrial applications. Advanced high-speed circuitry allows the device to regulate from an input voltage of 36 V, while providing an output voltage of 3.3 V at a switching frequency of 400 kHz. The innovative architecture allows the device to regulate a 3.3 V output from an input of only 3.8 V. The regulator automatically switches modes between PFM and PWM, depending on the load. At heavy loads, the device operates in PWM at a constant switching frequency. At light loads, the mode changes to PFM with diode emulation, allowing DCM. This reduces the input supply current and keeps efficiency high. The device features internal loop compensation, which reduces design time and requires fewer external components than externally compensated regulators.
