STEP-UP, SUPER-SMALL PACKAGE, 1.2 MHz PWM / PFM SWITCHABLE SWITCHING REGULATOR

The S-8363 Series is a CMOS step-up switching regulator which consists of a reference voltage source, an oscillation circuit, an error amplifier, a phase compensation circuit, a current limit circuit, and a start-up circuit.

Due to the operation of the PWM / PFM switching control, pulses are skipped under the light load operation and the S-8363 Series prevents decrease in efficiency caused by IC’s operating current.
