International Rectifier IR3640MPBF Datasheet

The IR3640M is a synchronous Buck PWM controller designed for performance demanding DC/DC applications. The single loop voltage mode architecture simplifies design while delivery precise output voltage regulation and fast transient response. Because of its wide input and output voltage range it can be used in a large variety of point of load applications within a system and across different markets. The part is designed to drive a pair of N-Channel MOSFETs from 250kHz to 1.5Mhz switching frequency giving designers the flexibility to optimize the solution for best efficiency or smallest footprint. The output voltage can be precisely regulated from as low as 0.7V within a wide input voltage range.
