DESCRIPTION
The SS6563 is a monolithic control circuit that
provides the primary functions required for DC to
DC converters and high-side-sensed constant
current sources. The device consists of an inter-
nal temperature compensated reference, com-
parator, controlled duty-cycle oscillator with an
active current-sense circuit, bootstrapped driver,
and high-current output switch. This device is
specifically designed to construct a constant cur-
rent source for battery chargers with a minimum
number of external components. A bootstrapped
driver can drive the NPN output switch to satura-
tion for higher efficiency and less heat dissipation.
The SS6563 can deliver 1.5A continuous current
without requiring a heat sink.
APPLICATIONS
Constant Current Source for Battery Chargers.
Saver for Cellular phones.
Step-Down DC/DC Converter Module.
