General Description
The APW7093 is a reversible energy flow, constant-
off-time, pulse-width modulated (PWM), step-down
DC-DC converter. It is ideal for use in notebook and
sub-notebook computers that require 1.1V to 5V
active termination power supplies. This device features
an internal PMOS power switch and internal
synchronous rectifier for high efficiency and reduced
component count. The internal 90m
PMOS power
switch and 60m
NMOS synchronous-rectifier switch
easily deliver continuous load currents up to 3A. The
APW7093 accurately tracks an external reference
voltage, produces an adjustable output from 1.1V to
VIN, and achieves efficiencies as high as 94%.
The APW7093 uses a unique current-mode,
constant-off-time, PWM control scheme that allows
the output to source or sink current. This feature
allows energy to return to the input power supply that
otherwise would be wasted. The programmable
constant-off-time architecture sets switching frequencies
up to 1MHz, allowing the user to optimize performance
trade-offs between efficiency, output switching noise,
component size, and cost. The APW7093 features an
adjustable soft-start to limit surge currents during
startup, a 100% duty-cycle mode for low-dropout
operation, and a low-power shutdown mode that disables
the power switches and reduces supply current below
1μA. The APW7093 is available in a 32-pin QFN with
an exposed backside pad or a 16-pin SSOP.
