The SY21138 develops a high efficiency synchronous step-down DC/DC regulator capable of delivering 6A current over a wide input voltage range of 4.5V to 24V.

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.

Internal 38mΩ power and 19mΩ synchronous rectifier switches provide excellent efficiency over a range of applications, especially for low output voltages and low duty cycles. SY21138 also integrates a bypass switch which allows the IC to be powered by external DC source. 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. The SY21138 is available in a compact QFN2.5×2.5-16 package.
