USER GUIDE FOR IR3847 EVALUATION BOARD

DESCRIPTION

The

IR3847

is

a

synchronous

buck

converter,

providing

a

compact,

high

performance and flexible solution in a small
5mmx6mm QFN package.

Key features offered by the IR3847 include
internal Digital Soft Start, precision 0.6V
reference voltage, Power Good, thermal
protection,

programmable

switching

frequency, Enable input, input under-voltage
lockout for proper start-up, enhanced line/
load regulation with feed forward, external
frequency

synchronization

with

smooth

clocking, internal LDO, true differential
remote sensing and pre-bias start-up.

A thermally compensated output over-current
protection function is implemented by sensing
the voltage developed across the on-resistance
of the synchronous rectifier MOSFET for
optimum cost and performance.

This user guide contains the schematic and bill
of materials for the IR3847 evaluation board.
The guide describes operation and use of the
evaluation board itself. Detailed

application

information for IR3847 is available in the
IR3847 data sheet.
