AP5001 consists of step-down switching regulator with PWM
control. These devices include a reference voltage source,
oscillation circuit, error amplifier, internal PMOS.
AP5001 provides low-ri pple power, high efficiency, and excellent
transient characteristics. The PWM control circuit is able to vary
the duty ratio linearly from 0 up to 100%. This converter also
contains an error amplifier circuit as well as a soft-start circuit that
prevents overshoot at startup. An enable function, an over
current protect fun ction and a sh ort circuit protect function are b uilt
inside, and when OCP or SCP happens, the operation frequency
will be reduced from 800KHz to 50KHz. Also, an internal
compensation block is built in to minimum external component
count.
With the addition of an internal P-channel Power MOS, a coil,
capacitors, and a diode c onnected externally, th ese ICs can
function as step-down switching regulators. They serve as ideal
power supply units for portable devices when coupled with the
SOP–8L mini-p ackage, providing such outstanding feat ures as
low current consumption. Since this converter can accommodate
an input voltage up to 20V, it is also suitable for the operation via
an AC adapter.

Function Description
PWM Control
The AP5001 consists of DC/DC converters that employ a
pulse-width modulation (PWM) system.
In converters of the AP5001, the pulse width varies in a range
from 0 to 100%, according to the load current. The ripple voltage
produced by the switching can easily be removed through a filter
because the switching frequency remains constant. Therefore,
these converters provide a low-ripple power over broad ran ges of
input voltage and load current.
Under Voltage Lockout
The under voltage lockout circuit of the AP5001 assures that the
high-side MOSFET driver outputs remain in the off state
whenever the supply volta ge drops below 3 .3V. Normal operat ion
resumes once VCC rises above 3.5V.
RDS(ON) Current Limiting
The current limit threshold is setting by the internal circuit.
