AiT Semiconductor Introduces High-Frequency Step Down Switching Regulator for Portable Electronics

The A7406A is a high frequency (1.8 MHz) step-down switching regulator with integrated internal high-side high voltage power MOSFET. It provides a single 0.6 A (or less) highly efficient output with current mode control for fast loop response. The wide input range(4.2 V to 40 V) accommodates a variety of step-down applications. Low shutdown mode quiescent current allows use in battery-powered applications.

High efficiency at light load conditions is achieved by scaling down the switching frequency to reduce the switching and gate driving losses.
