About this manual

The PM6675AS is a high-efficiency step-down controller integrated with an independent low-drop-out (LDO) linear regulator. It utilizes a constant-on-time (COT) architecture to ensure fast transient response and supports both electrolytic and ceramic output capacitors. The device includes selectable low-consumption modes and a low-noise option with a minimum switching frequency of 33 kHz for audio-sensitive applications.

The controller features an embedded integrator control loop to compensate for DC voltage error due to output ripple. It offers selectable current limits for the LDO section (+1 A or +2 A) and includes dedicated power-good signals for both the switching and LDO regulators. The device is designed for industrial applications on 24 V, graphic cards, and embedded computer systems.
