Nisshinbo Micro Devices Inc. R1232D151B-TR-FE

The R1232D Series are CMOS-based PWM step-down DC/DC converters with synchronous rectifier, low supply current. As an output capacitor, a 10μF or more ceramic capacitor can be used with the R1232D. Each of these ICs consists of an oscillator, a PWM control circuit, a voltage reference unit, an error amplifier, a soft-start circuit, protection circuits, a protection against miss operation under low voltage (UVLO), a chip enable circuit, a synchronous rectifier, Nch. driver transistor, and so on. A low ripple, high efficiency step-down DC/DC converter can be easily composed of this IC with only a few kinds of external components, or an inductor and capacitors. (As for R1232D001x type, divider resistors are also necessary.) In terms of the output voltage, it is fixed internally in the R1232Dxx1x types. While in the R1232D001x types, the output voltage is adjustable with external divider resistors. As protection circuits, current limit circuit which limits peak current of LX at each clock cycle, and latch type protection circuit exist. The latch protection works if the term of the over-current condition keeps on a certain time. Latch-type protection circuit works to latch an internal driver with keeping it disable. To release the condition of protection, after disable this IC with a chip enable circuit, enable it again, or restart this IC with power-on or make the supply voltage at UVLO detector threshold level or lower than UVLO.
