Evaluation boards ease evaluation and design with synchronous buck converters

Offering engineers the ability to evaluate and design with International Rectifier's IR3894, IR3895, IR3897, IR3898, and IR3899 synchronous buck converters, the company's IRDC389x SupIRBuck evaluation boards are now available from Mouser. The synchronous buck regulators are versatile regulators which offer programmability of switching frequency and current limit while operating in wide input and output voltage range. The switching frequency is programmable from 300KHz to 1.5MHz for an optimum solution. They also feature important protection functions, such as Pre-Bias start-up, thermally-compensated current limit and thermal shutdown to give required system level security in the event of fault conditions.
