DESCRIPTION
The MP2109 contains two independent 1.2MHz
constant frequency, current mode, PWM
step-down converters. Each converter
integrates a main switch and a synchronous
rectifier for high efficiency without an external
Schottky diode. The MP2109 is ideal for
powering portable equipment that runs from a
single cell Lithium-Ion (Li+) battery. Each
converter can supply 800mA of load current
from a 2.5V to 6V input voltage. The output
voltage can be regulated as low as 0.6V. The
MP2109 can also run at 100% duty cycle for
low dropout applications.
