NCP6335
Configurable 4.0 A Step
Down Converter - Transient
Load Helper
The NCP6335 is a synchronous buck converter optimized to supply
the different sub systems of portable applications powered by one cell
Li−Ion or three cell Alkaline/NiCd/NiMH batteries. The device is able
to deliver up to 4.0 A, with programmable output voltage from 0.6 V
to 1.4 V. It can share the same output rail with another DC−to−DC
converter and works as a transient load helper. Operation at a 3 MHz
switching frequency allows the use of small components.
Synchronous rectification and automatic PWM/PFM transitions
improve overall solution efficiency. The NCP6335 is in a space
saving, low profile 2.0 x 1.6 mm CSP−20 package.

Power Input
Switch Supply. These pins must be decoupled to ground by a 4.7
mF
ceramic
capacitor. It should be placed as close as possible to these pins. All pins must be
used with short heavy connections.
Switch Node. These pins supply drive power to the inductor. Typical application uses
0.470
mH
inductor; refer to application section for more information.
All pins must be used with short heavy connections.
Switch Ground. This pin is the power ground and carries the high switching current.
High quality ground must be provided to prevent noise spikes. To avoid high−density
current flow in a limited PCB track, a local ground plane that connects all PGND pins
together is recommended. Analog and power grounds should only be connected
together in one location with a trace.
Feedback Voltage input. Must be connected to the output capacitor positive terminal
with a trace, not to a plane. This is the positive input to the error amplifier.
