  • ADP2441 External Diode between SW and PGND

    Question Do I need to connect an external diode between SW to PGND? Answer ADP2441 is designed to reduce complexity of power supply design. It has internal high side and low side FETS. It is not required…
  • ADP2441 Floating Pins

    Question Which of the following ADP2441 pins can be left floating? PGOOD FREQ SS/TRK Answer The PGOOD pin can be left floating if not used. The ADP2441 requires frequency resistor to be set in…
  • ADP2441 Minimum ON Time

    Q What is the minimum ON time of ADP2441? A The maximum operating frequency is limited by the minimum on-time and the required duty cycle. ADP2441 has minimum on time of 50ns. Low minimum on-time…
  • ADP2441 Peak Current Limit

    Question The ADP2441 has a peak current limit of 1.6A. Does this mean I can operate the ADP2441 at 1.6A Load current? Answer No, peak inductor current does not mean the average load current. The average…
  • ADP2441 Precharge Startup

    Question Does ADP2441 support a precharge startup? Answer Yes, ADP2441 supports a precharged condition. If the output voltage is precharged prior to enabling, the control logic prevents inductor current…
  • ADP2441 VCC Pin

    Question What is VCC pin in the ADP2441? Answer VCC pin is the output of the internal low dropout regulator. Internal regulator supplies power for the internal controller and driver circuitry. A 1 µF…
