Panasonic AN3018xA multi-channel dc/dc step-down regulators with integrated FET and LDO offer a power management LSI step-down dc/dc regulator (1 to 2 ch) that uses Panasonic's hysteretic dc/dc core control system. The devices minimize output voltage changes when the load current changes suddenly. AN3018xA devices make it possible to use capacitors with small capacitance, allowing for smaller designs and a reduction in the number of external parts.
