PI33XX-X0
8V to 36Vin Cool-Power ZVS Buck Regulator Family
Description
The PI33XX is a family of high efficiency, wide input
range DC-DC ZVS-Buck regulators integrating
controller, power switches, and support components
all within a high density System-in-Package (SiP). The
integration of a high performance Zero-Voltage
Switching (ZVS) topology, within the PI33XX series,
increases point of load performance providing best in
class power efficiency. The PI33XX requires only an
external inductor and minimal capacitors to form a
complete DC-DC switching mode buck regulator.

The ZVS architecture also enables high frequency
operation while minimizing switching losses and
maximizing efficiency. The high switching frequency
operation reduces the size of the external filtering
components, improves power density, and enables
very fast dynamic response to line and load
transients. The PI33XX series sustains high switching
frequency all the way up to the rated input voltage
without sacrificing efficiency and, with its 20ns
minimum on-time, supports large step down
conversions up to 36Vin.
