LM3253TME/NOPB

开关稳压器 Hi Current SD DC/DC Cnvtr

The LM3253 is a DC-DC converter optimized for powering multi-mode 2G/3G/4G RF power amplifiers PAs from a single Lithium-Ion cell. The LM3253 steps down an input voltage from 2.7V to 5.5V to a dynamically adjustable output voltage of 0.4V to 3.6V. The output voltage is set through a VCON analog input that adjusts the output voltage to ensure efficient operation at all power levels of the RF PA. The LM3253 is optimized for USB datacard applications.

The LM3253 operates in constant frequency Pulse Width Modulation PWM mode producing a small and predictable amount of output voltage ripple. This enables best ECTEL power requirements in GMSK and EDGE spectral compliance, with the minimal amount of filtering and excess headroom. When operating in Pulse Frequency Modulation PFM mode, the LM3253 enables the lowest DG09 current consumption and therefore maximizes system efficiency.

*A**ctive **C**urrent assist and analog **B**ypass ACB feature to minimize inductor size without any loss of output regulation for the entire battery voltage and RF output power range, until dropout. ACB provides a parallel current path, when needed, to limit the maximum inductor current to 1.84A typ. while still driving a 3A load. The ACB also enables operation with minimal dropout voltage. The LM3253 is available in a small 2 mm x 2 mm chip-scale 16-bump DSBGA package.
