The A8498SLJ-T is a 3A wide input voltage Step Down Regulator with integrated DMOS switch. The A8498 regulator is a fixed off-time, current-mode controlled buck switching regulator. The regulator requires an external clamping diode, inductor and filters capacitor, operates in both continuous and discontinuous modes. An internal blanking circuit is used to filter out transients resulting from the reverse recovery of the external clamp diode. It will handle a wide input operating voltage range.
