General Description

The XR79110 is a 10A synchronous step-down Power Module for point-of

load supplies. A wide 4.5V to 22V input voltage range allows for single

supply operation from industry standard 5V, 12V, and 19.6V rails.

With a proprietary emulated current mode Constant On-Time (COT) con-

trol scheme, the XR79110 provides extremely fast line and load transient

response using ceramic output capacitors. It requires no loop compensa-

tion hence simplifying circuit implementation and reducing overall compo-

nent count. The control loop also provides 0.35% load and 0.1% line

regulation and maintains constant operating frequency. A selectable

power saving mode allows the user to operate in discontinuous mode

(DCM) at light current loads thereby significantly increasing the converter

efficiency. With a 96% peak efficiency and 90% for loads as low as

100mA, the XR79110 is suitable for applications where low power losses

are important.

A host of protection features, including over-current, over-temperature,

short-circuit and UVLO, help achieve safe operation under abnormal

operating conditions.

The XR79110 is available in a RoHS compliant, green/halogen free

space-saving 72-pin 10x10x4mm QFN package with a 260°C lead solder

temperature. With integrated controller, drivers, bootstrap diode and

capacitor, MOSFETs, inductor, CIN and COUT, this solution allows the

smallest possible 10A POL design
