Overview

The BD9S402MUF-C, in addition to meeting the basic requirements of secondary DC/DC converter ICs in ADAS for 2MHz or higher operation and 4A output current, ROHM’s unique Nano Pulse Control™ ultra-high-speed pulse control technology delivers next-generation low voltage output down to 0.6V – much lower than the typical 1.0V voltage output required by current SoCs and MCUs. At the same time, equipped QuiCur™ high-speed load response technology achieves extremely stable operation. The ability to suppress voltage output variation within 5% even at low output voltages below 1.0V makes it ideal for secondary power supplies for the latest ADAS.

The BD9S402MUF-C is also equipped with a load response performance selection function that leverages the characteristics of QuiCur™ technology, allowing users to easily switch priority between ‘voltage fluctuation’ (for industry-leading stable operation) and ‘capacitance reduction’ (to ensure stable operation at 22μF) by setting High/Low of the GAIN pin. For example, the user can set the GAIN pin to High in the case of a power supply for a high-performance SoC that needs to handle fast load fluctuations. Or the user can set the GAIN pin with Low for a good balance between performance and capacitor cost when the power supply for an MCU doesn’t need to consider high accurate voltage fluctuations. This contributes to a significant increase in design flexibility for application designers, as stable operation can be easily achieved at initial design as well as during specification or model changes.
