The AP2014 PWM DC-DC controller IC is designed to provide a
low cost synchronous Buck regulator for on-board DC to DC
converter applications. With the migration of today’s ASIC
products requiring low supply voltages such as 1.8V and lower,
together with currents in excess of 3A, traditional linear regulators
are simply too lossy to be used when input supply is 5V or even
in some cases with 3.3V input supply. The AP2014 together with
dual N-channel MOSFETs such as AF9410, provide a low cost
solution for such applications. This device features an internal
200KHz oscillator (400KHz for "A" version), under-voltage
lockout for both Vcc and Vc supplies, an external programmable
soft-start function as well as output under-voltage detection that
latches off the device when an output short is detected.
