onsemi Step-Up/step-Down/invert Regulator, W16-Soic; Topology Onsemi MC34163DWG

The MC34163 series is a monolithic power switching regulator designed for step-up, step-down, and inverting applications. It operates with an input voltage range of 2.5 V to 40 V and can deliver output currents exceeding 3.0 A. The device features a controlled duty cycle oscillator, high gain voltage feedback comparators, and a driver with bootstrap capability to enhance efficiency. Protective mechanisms include cycle-by-cycle current limiting and internal thermal shutdown. The regulator is housed in a 16-pin dual-in-line package, which facilitates improved thermal conduction. It also includes a low voltage indicator output for direct interfacing with microprocessor-based systems. The MC34163 series is RoHS compliant and offers a low standby current, making it suitable for various applications requiring efficient power management.
