ELM603GC
5V input 1.5A 1.5MHz synchronous step-down DC/DC converter

ELM603GC is high efficiency 1.5A constant on-time (COT) controlled synchronous step-down DC/DC converter. It can operate with input voltage from 2.5V to 6.0V and provide output range from 0.6V to input level, thanks to its 100% duty cycle operation. The constant on-time control scheme simplifies loop compensation and offers excellent load transient response. ELM603GC operates at fixed 1.5MHz across entire load range. The high gain error amplifier in the control loop provides excellent load and line regulation. ELM603GC has cycle-by-cycle current limit and hiccup mode to protect over-load or short circuit fault conditions.
ELM603GC is available in low profile 6 leads DFN 2mm×2mm packages.
