The SY21240D provides a complete power supply with the highest density for DDR3, DDR3L, LPDDR3 and DDR4 memory. It develops one high efficiency synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator VDD2 capable of delivering 9A continuous/12A peak current and one sink/source VDDQ LDO capable of delivering ±1A current. In addition, it operates at 600kHz pseudo constant frequency under continuous conduction mode. The integrated low RDS(ON) switches minimize the conduction loss.
Silergy’s proprietary Instant-PWM™ fast-response, constant-on-time (COT) PWM control method supports high input/output voltage ratios (low duty cycles), and fast transient response while maintaining a near constant operating frequency over line, load and output voltage ranges. This control method provides stable operation without complex compensation and even with low ESR ceramic capacitors.
The SY21240D operates over a wide input voltage range from 4V to 24V. Cycle-by-cycle current limit, input under voltage lock-out, internal soft-start, output under voltage protection and over voltage protection and thermal shutdown provide safe operation in all operating conditions.
