NCP1529MUTBGEVB

The NCP1529MUTBGEVB is an evaluation board to evaluate the performance of NCP1529 step down DC to DC converter. The NCP1529 is a monolithic integrated circuit for portable applications powered from one cell Li ion or three cell Alkaline/NiCd/NiMH batteries. This IC is available in an adjustable output voltage from 0.9V to 3.3V and able to deliver up to 1A. The NCP1529 uses synchronous rectification to increase efficiency and reduce external part count and it also has a built in 1.7MHz oscillator which reduces component size by allowing a small inductor and capacitors. Automatic switching PWM/PFM mode offers improved system efficiency.

• 96% efficiency, 28uA quiescent current, 0.3uA shutdown current
• Auto switching between PWM and PFM mode at light load conditions
• Best in class low ripple even in PFM mode
• Extends battery life and play time
• Low power consumption at light loading
• Integrated soft start
• Cycle by cycle current limiting
• Thermal shutdown protection
