The S-8550/8551 Series is a CMOS synchronous rectification step-down switching regulator which mainly consists of a
reference voltage circuit, an oscillator, an error amplifier, a phase compensation circuit, a PWM controller, an under
voltage lockout circuit (UVLO), a current limit circuit, and a power MOS FET.
The oscillation frequency is high at 1.2 MHz,
so a high efficiency, large output current, step-down switching regulator can be achieved by using small external parts.
The built-in synchronous rectification circuit makes achieving high efficiency easier compared with conventional step-down
switching regulators.
A ceramic capacitor can be used as an output capacitor.
High-density mounting is supported by
adopting packages small SOT-23-5 and super-small and thin SNT-8A.
The S-8550 and S-8551 Series are offered according to different pin configuration.

Caution
1. The absolute maximum ratings are rated values exceeding which the product could suffer
physical damage.
These values must therefore not be exceeded under any conditions.
(Refer to Figure 5.)
2. Since this IC has a built-in power MOS FET, make sure that dissipation of the power MOS FET
does not exceed the allowable power dissipation of the package.
Generally, dissipation of a switching regulator can be calculated by the following equation.
Dissipation = (100 (%)
−
efficiency (%)) / efficiency (%)
×
output voltage
×
load current
The greater part of dissipation depends on the built-in power MOS FET, however, dissipation
of the inductor is also included.
In addition, since power dissipation of the package also changes according to a mounting
board or a mounting state, fully check them using an actually mounted mode.
