The LM3242TM-EV/NOPB is an evaluation module for LM3242 step down DC DC Converter. The LM3242 DC to DC converter optimized for powering 3G/4G RF power amplifiers (PAs) from a single Lithium Ion cell. It steps down an input voltage from 2.7V to 5.5V to an adjustable output voltage from 0.4V to 3.6V. Output voltage is set using a VCON analogue input for controlling power levels and efficiency of the RF power amplifier. There are five modes of operation depending on the current required. PWM (Pulse Width Modulation), ECO(Economy), BP (Bypass), Sleep and Shutdown. The LM3242 operates in PWM mode at higher load current conditions. Lighter loads cause the device to automatically switch into ECO mode. Shutdown mode turns the device off and reduces battery consumption to 0.1 μA (typ). In low battery condition, bypass mode reduces the voltage dropout to less than 50 mV (typ) when VCON is less than 80 mV in 10 μs, the LM3242 will go into Sleep mode.
