ST3104 2A synchronous buck converter

ST3104 2A Synchronous Buck Converter

ST3104

The ST3104 is a current-mode synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with a 2.8V~6V input range and externally set output voltage, delivering 2A of output current. It operates in PFM/PWM auto-switching mode: near-constant 1.5MHz (typ.) PWM under heavy load and PFM under light load to maintain high efficiency, reaching 94% at 500mA/3.3V with ±2% feedback voltage accuracy. Input UVLO, over-current, short-circuit and over-temperature protection are integrated, together with 100% duty-cycle low-dropout operation and internal soft-start. Housed in a compact SOT23-5 package, it suits Bluetooth devices, cable modems, LCD TV power supplies and general-purpose point-of-load (POL) power.

Product details

Overview

ST3104 is a current mode synchronous step-down DC/DC converter with an input voltage range of 2.8V to 6V, and the output voltage is set externally. It works in PFM/PWM mode: it operates at nearly constant switching frequency 1.5MHz (TYP) over the heavy load and works in PFM mode that maintains high efficiency during light load operation. ST3104 integrates several protection circuits to make the system work safely, including input under-voltage lockout, over-current protection, short-circuit protection and over temperature protection.
