Description
BS
1
Bootstrap. This pin acts as the positive rail for the high-side switch’s gate driver.
Connect a 0.1uF capacitor between BS and SW.
IN
2
Input Supply. Bypass this pin to G with a low ESR capacitor. See Input Capacitor
in the Application Information section.
SW
3
Switch Output. Connect this pin to the switching end of the inductor.
GND
4
Ground.
FB
5
Feedback Input. The voltage at this pin is regulated to 0.925V. Connect to the
resistor divider between output and ground to set output voltage.
COMP
6
Compensation Pin. See Stability Compensation in the Application Information
section.
EN
7
Enable Input. When higher than 2.5V, this pin turns the IC on. When lower than
1.3V, this pin turns the IC off. Output voltage is discharged when the IC is off. This
pin should not be left open.
SS
8
Soft-Start Control Input. SS controls the soft-start period. Connect a capacitor from
SS to GND to set the soft-start period. A 0.1F capacitor sets the soft-start period
to 15ms. To disable the soft-start feature, leave SS unconnected.
TYPICAL APPLICATION

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The LSP5503 is a monolithic synchronous buck
regulator. The device integrates 100m MOSFETS
that provide 3A continuous load cur-rent over a wide
operating input voltage of 4.5V to 27V. Current mode
control
provides
fast
transient
response
and
cycle-by-cycle cur-rent limit.
An adjustable soft-start prevents inrush current at turn
on. In shutdown mode, the supply cur-rent drops
below 1A.
This device, available in an SOP8L-EP package,
provides a very compact system solution with minimal
reliance on external components.
