STMicroelectronics L5983 Step-Down Switching Regulator Datasheet
The L5983 is a step-down switching regulator with a 2.0 A (min.) current limited embedded power MOSFET, capable of delivering an output current in excess of 1.5 A DC. It operates with an input voltage range from 2.9 V to 18 V and allows the output voltage to be set from 0.6 V to the input voltage. The device includes an internal 250 kHz switching frequency oscillator that can be externally adjusted up to 1 MHz.
