These devices consist of an internal temperature compensated reference, comparator, controlled duty cycle oscillator with an active current limit circuit, driver and high current output switch. This series is specifically designed for incorporating in Step-Down and Step-Up and Voltage-Inverting applications with a minimum number of external components.
