MaxLinear XR76115EL-F

The XR76115 is a synchronous step-down regulator combining the controller, drivers, bootstrap diode and MOSFETs in a single package for point-of-load supplies. The XR76115 has a load current rating of 15A. A wide 5V to 22V input voltage range allows for single supply operation from industry standard 5V, 12V and 19.6V rails. With a proprietary emulated current mode Constant On-Time (COT) control scheme, the XR76115 provides extremely fast line and load transient response using ceramic output capacitors. It requires no loop compensation, simplifying circuit implementation and reducing overall component count. The control loop also provides 0.25% load and 0.12% line regulation and maintains constant operating frequency. A selectable power saving mode allows the user to operate in discontinuous mode (DCM) at light current loads, thereby significantly increasing the converter efficiency. A host of protection features, including over-current, overtemperature, short-circuit and UVLO, help achieve safe operation under abnormal operating conditions. The XR76115 is available in a RoHS-compliant, green / halogenfree, space-saving QFN 6x6mm package.
