SGM62180

The SGM62180 is a two-phase, synchronous Buck DC/DC converter with integrated power MOSFETs using two identical current balanced phases with peak current mode control. The SGM62180 is a perfect low profile solution for height restricted applications.

The Buck converter operates with phase delay to minimize the required input capacitance and reduce the EMI generation.

With a wide 4.5V to 16V input voltage range and a very low quiescent current (30μA), the SGM62180 is well suitable for systems powered by multi-cell Li-Ion batteries, particularly for 12V applications. It can deliver 6A continuous current which is equally shared between the phases. Dividing current between two phases allows the use of thinner inductors required for low profile designs.

The efficiency is automatically maximized in the full duty cycle range by adjusting the switching frequency to the optimal value depending on VIN and VOUT. The loss is also minimized at very light loads by the automatic activation of the power-save mode (PSM).

Other features include tracking, adjustable soft-start time, and power-good output signal. The SGM62180 can operate with 100% duty cycle for very low dropout. It is also capable to work at high step-down ratios without duty cycle limitation.

This device is available in a tiny 24-bump Green WLCSP package with 0.5mm pin pitch.
