General Description
The AAT1112 SwitchReg is a 1.5A step-down con-
verter with an input voltage range of 2.4V to 5.5V
and an adjustable output voltage from 0.6V to VIN.
The 1.4MHz switching frequency enables the use
of small external components. The small footprint
and high efficiency make the AAT1112 an ideal
choice for portable applications.
The AAT1112 delivers 1.5A maximum output current
while consuming only 42µA of no-load quiescent
current. Ultra-low RDS(ON) integrated MOSFETs and
100% duty cycle operation make the AAT1112 an
ideal choice for high output voltage, high current
applications which require a low dropout threshold.
The AAT1112 provides excellent transient
response and high output accuracy across the
operating range. No external compensation com-
ponents are required.
The AAT1112 is designed to maintain high efficien-
cy throughout the load range. Pulling the MODE/
SYNC pin high enables "PWM Only" mode, main-
taining constant frequency and low output ripple
across the operating range. Alternatively, the con-
verter may be synchronized to an external clock
input via the MODE/SYNC pin. Over-temperature
and short-circuit protection safeguard the AAT1112
and system components from damage.
The AAT1112 is available in a Pb-free, space-sav-
ing TDFN33-12 or 2.75x3mm TSOPJW-12 pack-
age. The product is rated over an operating tem-
perature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Function
Switching node. Connect the output inductor to this pin. The
switching node is internally connected to the drain of both
high- and low-side MOSFETs.
Input voltage for the power switches.
Not connected.
Connect to ground for PFM/PWM mode and optimized efficien-
cy throughout the load range. Connect high for low noise
PWM operation under all operating conditions. Connect to an
external clock for synchronization (PWM only).
Enable pin. A logic low disables the converter and it con-
sumes less than 1µA of current. When connected high, it
resumes normal operation.
Power supply. Supplies power for the internal circuitry.
Feedback input pin. This pin is connected either directly to the
converter output or to an external resistive divider for an
adjustable output.
Non-power signal ground pin.
Main power ground return pin. Connect to the output and
input capacitor return.
Exposed paddle (bottom); connect to ground as closely as
possible to the device.
