LM3242TME Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Texas Instruments LM3242TME is a miniature, adjustable step-down DC-DC converter designed for powering RF power amplifiers from a single lithium-ion cell. It accepts an input voltage range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V and provides an adjustable output voltage from 0.4 V to 3.6 V. This converter features a typical PWM switching frequency of 6 MHz and a maximum load capability of 750 mA, with up to 1 A in bypass mode.

 

Key features include high efficiency, automatic ECO/PWM/BP mode change, current overload protection, and thermal overload protection. The device also incorporates a soft-start function. Its compact DSBGA package with an area of 1.96 mm² makes it suitable for space-constrained applications. The output voltage is set using a VCON analog input, allowing for control of power levels and efficiency, particularly beneficial for RF power amplifiers.

 

With a typical quiescent current of 60 nA and an operating temperature range of -30 °C to 90 °C, the LM3242TME is a versatile solution for various power management needs where efficiency and size are critical.
