General Description
AME5106 provides low-ripple power, high efficiency, and
excellent transient characteristics. The PWM control cir-
cuit is able to vary the duty ratio linearly from 0 up to
100%. This converter also contains an error amplifier cir-
cuit as well as a soft-start circuit that prevents overshoot
at startup. An enable function, an over current protect func-
tion and a short circuit protect function are built inside,
and when OCP or SCP happens, the operation frequency
will be reduced from 350KHz to 30KHz. Also, an internal
compensation block is built in to minimum external com-
ponent count.
With the addition of an internal P-channel Power MOS,
a coil, capacitors, and a diode connected externally, these
ICs can function as step-down switching regulators. They
serve as ideal power supply units for portable devices when
coupled with the SOP-8L mini-package, providing such
outstanding features as low current consumption. Since
this converter can accommodate an input voltage up to
18V, it is also suitable for the operation via an AC adapter.

Enable Control Input, active high.
The enable pin is an active high control. Tie this pin above 2V to enable
the device. Tie this pin below 0.8V to shut down the device. In shutdown,
all function are disabled. Do not leave EN pin floating.
Add an external resistor to set max output current.
Input Supply Voltage Pin.
Bypass this pin with a capacitor. The capacitor shall be placed as close
to the device as possible.
