The S-8351/8352 series is a CMOS PFM-control step-up switching regulator (DC-DC Converter ICs) that mainly consists of a reference voltage source, an oscillator, and a comparator. The PFM controller allows the duty ratio to be automatically switched according to the load (light load: 50%, high output current: 75%), enabling products with a low ripple over a wide range, high efficiency, and high output current (product types A, B, and D). Products with a fixed duty ratio of 75% are also available (product type C). With the S-8351 series, a step-up switching regulator (DC-DC Converter ICs) can be configured by using an external coil, capacitor, and diode. The built-in MOS FET is turned off by a protection circuit when the voltage at the CONT pin exceeds the limit to prevent it from being damaged. This feature, along with the mini package and low current consumption, makes the S-8351 series ideal for applications such as the power supply unit of portable equipment.
The S-8352 series, which features an external transistor, is suitable for applications requiring a high output current.
