The XRP6670 is a synchronous current mode PWM step-down (buck) regulator capable of delivering up to 3Amps of current. A 2.6V to 5.5V input voltage range allows for single supply operation from industry standard 3.3V and 5V power rails.

Based on a current mode PWM control scheme, the XRP6670 operating frequency is programmable between 300kHz and 2.5MHz via an external resistor. This flexibility allows the XRP6670 to optimize component selection and reduce component count and solution footprint. It provides a low output voltage ripple, excellent line and load regulation and has a 100% duty cycle LDO mode. Output voltage is adjustable to as low as 0.8V with a better than 2% accuracy while a low quiescent current supports the most stringent battery operating conditions.

Built-in over temperature, overcurrent, short-circuit and undervoltage lock-out protections insure safe operations under abnormal operating conditions.

The XRP6670 is offered in a RoHS compliant, "green"/halogen free 3mm x 3mm 10-pin DFN 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.
