The SP6669 is a synchronous current mode PWM step-down (buck) converter capable of delivering up to 800mA of current. It features a Pulse Skip Mode (PSM) for light load efficiency and an LDO mode for 100% duty cycle.

 

With a 2.5V to 5.5V input voltage range and a 1.5MHz switching frequency, the SP6669 allows the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors ideal for battery powered portable applications. The internal synchronous switch increases efficiency and eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode. Low output voltages are easily supported with the 0.6V feedback reference voltage. The SP6669 is available in an adjustable output voltage version, using an external resistor divider circuit, as well as fixed output voltage versions of 1.2V, 1.5V and 1.8V.

Built-in over temperature and output overvoltage lock-out protections ensure safe operation under abnormal operating conditions.

 

The SP6669 is offered in a RoHS compliant, green/halogen free 5-pin SOT-23 package.

Distribution Date Description File
07/17/2023 In 2023, MaxLinear will be converting all shipping labels for the parts noted from an EXAR format to MaxLinear’s label. During this transition customers may receive either label. This change affects only shipping and packing labels. This change will not affect the part number, part marking, manufacturing process or manufacturing sites. Only work in progress material will be converted. Existing inventory from MaxLinear’s warehouse, channel sales, distributor, and such, will not be converted. Hence, customers may experience receiving mixed shipments with both Exar and MaxLinear labels for some period until existing inventory of old labels is eventually cleared out. Situation is product to product with no predictable way to determine when all old labels will be exhausted. No change to product form, fit, function and reliability. ADDENDUM A: Fixed MBB label logo for DX204001 to MaxLinear logo. ADDENDUM B: Replaced ‘All other affected products outer box label’ with clearer pictures. Corrected Date Issued (from original PCN) issue date +90 days to August 30, 2023.
