Low-quiescent DC/DC buck converter in TSMC 22ULL supporting an 1.62 V to 3.63 V input voltage range with low quiescent current and high efficiency at light load. No LL PMOS layer required (no extra mask).

Key Benefits

  • Low quiescent current to ensure minimum current consumption in deep sleep / hibernation mode
  • High efficiency at light load to extend battery lifetime
  • Low ripple value to supply noise sensitive and RF loads
  • Small, low-cost 1 uH inductor suported
  • No LL PMOS layer required (no extra mask)
