12A 180KHz 40V Buck DC to DC Converter XL4016
Features General Description
Wide 8V to 36V Input Voltage Range The XL4016 is a 180 KHz fixed frequency
Output Adjustable from 1.25V to 32V PWM buck (step-down) DC/DC converter,
Maximum Duty Cycle 100% capable of driving a 12A load with high
Minimum Drop Out 0.3V efficiency, low ripple and excellent line and
Fixed 180KHz Switching Frequency load regulation. Requiring a minimum
12A Constant Output Current Capability number of external components, the regulator
Internal Optimize Power MOSFET is simple to use and include internal
High efficiency up to 96% frequency compensation and a
Excellent line and load regulation fixed-frequency oscillator.
Built in thermal shutdown function
Built in current limit function The PWM control circuit is able to adjust the
Built in output short protection function duty ratio linearly from 0 to 100%. An over
Available in TO220-5L package current protection function is built inside.
When short protection function happens, the
operation frequency will be reduced from
180KHz to 48KHz. An internal compensation
Applications block is built in to minimize external
LCD Monitor and LCD TV component count.

Pin Configurations
Figure2. Pin Configuration of XL4016 (Top View)
Table 1 Pin Description
Pin Number Pin Name Description
Ground Pin. Care must be taken in layout. This pin should be
placed outside of the Schottky Diode to output capacitor
1 GND
ground path to prevent switching current spikes from inducing
voltage noise into XL4016.
Feedback Pin (FB). Through an external resistor divider
2 FB network, FB senses the output voltage and regulates it. The
feedback threshold voltage is 1.25V.
Power Switch Output Pin (SW). SW is the switch node that
3 SW
supplies power to the output.
Internal Voltage Regulator Bypass Capacity. In typical system
4 VC
application, The VC pin connect a 1uf capacity to VIN.
Supply Voltage Input Pin. XL4016 operates from a 8V to 36V
5 VIN DC voltage. Bypass Vin to GND with a suitably large
capacitor to eliminate noise on the input.

Typical System Application (TTL shutdown function)
Logic level signals shutdown function can be used in typical system application with external
components. When the TTL high voltage above 3.3V(referenced to ground, lower than 7V), the
converter will shutdown, input current less than 5mA; when the TTL Low voltage below
0.8V(referenced to ground), the converter will turn on.
