The Diodes Incorporated AP1509-SG-13 is a 2A PWM step-down DC/DC converter with an integrated power switch, allowing it to drive loads up to 2A without an external power transistor. It uses voltage-mode nonsynchronous PWM control and is suitable for on-card regulators, power modules, and general step-down conversion.
The exact AP1509-SG-13 is the adjustable-output version, operating from a recommended 4.5V to 22V input range with an adjustable output from 1.23V to 18V. The typical feedback reference is approximately 1.23V.
The converter operates at a fixed 150kHz switching frequency and includes internal frequency compensation. As a nonsynchronous buck regulator, the application circuit requires an external catch diode, inductor, and input/output capacitors.
Integrated protection includes ON/OFF shutdown, current limiting, short-circuit frequency reduction, and thermal shutdown. Typical quiescent current is approximately 5mA, while shutdown current is about 70µA typical. The specified peak current-limit threshold is at least 3A.
The AP1509-SG-13 is supplied in an 8-pin SO-8 package. The G suffix identifies the Green version, while -13 denotes 13-inch tape-and-reel packaging with 2,500 devices per reel. Diodes Incorporated currently lists this exact adjustable version as NRND — Not Recommended for New Design.
