DESCRIPTION Ground 4 5 - Input
The MC34063A series is a monolithic control
circuit delivering the main functions for DC-DC
voltage converting. ORDERING INFORMATION
The device contains an intermal temperature Device Package
compensated reference, comparator, duty cycle MC34063AD 8 SOP
controlled oscillator with an active current limit MC34063AN 8 DIP
circuit driver and high current output switch.
Output voltage is adjustable through two external
resistors with a 2% reference accuracy.
Employing a minimum number of external
components the MC34063A devices series is
designed for Step-Down, Step-Up and
Voltage-lnverting applications.

Notes:
1) Maximum package power dissipation limit must be observed.
2) TLOW= 0oC, THIGH= 70oC
3) If Darlington configuration is not used, care must be taken to avoid deep saturation of output switch.
The resulting switch-off time may be adversely affected.
In a Darlington configuration the following output driver condition is suggested:
Forced β of output current switch= I COUTPUT/(ICDRIVER-1㎃* )≥10
*
Current less due to a built in 1KΩ antileakage resistor.
4) Start-up Voltage is the minimum Power Supply Voltage at which the internal oscillator begains to work.
