S-8550 Series STEP-DOWN, BUILT-IN FET, SYNCHRONOUS RECTIFICATION, PWM CONTROL SWITCHING REGULATORS www.sii-ic.com SII Semiconductor Corporation, 2007-2015 Rev.5.0 01 The S-8550 Series is a CMOS synchronous rectification step-down switching regulator which mainly consists of a reference voltage circuit, an oscillator, an error amplifier, a phase compensation circuit, a PWM controller, an under voltage lockout circuit (UVLO), a current limit circuit, and a power MOS FET. The oscillation frequency is high at 1.2 MHz, so a high efficiency, large output current, step-down switching regulator can be achieved by using small external parts. The built-in synchronous rectification circuit makes achieving high efficiency easier compared with conventional step-down switching regulators. A ceramic capacitor can be used as an output capacitor. High-density mounting is supported by adopting packages small SOT-23-5 and super-small and thin SNT-8A.
