2 MHz Low-I
Q
Dual-Mode
Step-Down Regulator for
Automotive
The NCV891x34 is a Dual Mode regulator intended for Automotive,
battery−connected applications that must operate with up to a 45 V
input supply. Hybrid Low Power Mode allows the NCV891x34 to
operate either as a PWM Buck Converter or as a Low Drop−Out Linear
Regulator, and the NCV891x34 is suitable for systems with Low Noise
and Low Quiescent Current requirements often encountered in
automotive driver information systems. A reset (with fixed delay) and
a fault pin (flagging low input voltage and high temperature warnings)
simplify interfacing with a microcontroller.
Two pins are provided to synchronize switching to a clock, or to
another NCV891x34. The NCV891x34 also provides several protection
features expected in automotive power supply systems such as current
limit, short circuit protection, and thermal shutdown. In addition, the
high switching frequency produces low output voltage ripple even
when using small inductor values and an all−ceramic output filter
capacitor – forming a space−efficient switching regulator solution.

Description
Input voltage from battery. Place an input filter capacitor in close proximity to this pin.
Input voltage pin – must be connected to VIN (pin 1)
Output voltage to provide a regulated voltage to the Power Switch gate driver.
Out−of−phase synchronization output. Turn−on of the Power Switch causes the SYNCO signal to fall
(and rise half a switching period later).
Reset function. Open drain output, pulling down to ground when the output voltage is out of regulation.
Battery return, and output voltage ground reference.
Fault flag indicating various fault conditions for the part
Synchronization input. Connecting an external clock to this pin synchronizes switching to the rising edge of
the SYNCI signal.
This TTL compatible Enable input allows the direct connection of Battery as the enable signal. Grounding this
input stops switching and reduces quiescent current draw to a minimum.
Output voltage feedback and LDO output. Feedback of output voltage used for regulation, as well as LDO
output in LDO mode.
Bootstrap input provides drive voltage higher than VIN to the N−channel Power Switch for minimum
switch Rdson and highest efficiency.
Switching node of the Regulator. Connect the output inductor and cathode of the freewheeling diode to
this pin.
Connect to Pin 6 (electrical ground) and to a low thermal resistance path to the ambient temperature
environment.
