9 Application Information

The AS3644 can be directly connected to an (existing) I

tions are accessible by this interface.

External Components

Low ESR input capacitors reduce input switching noise and reduce the peak current drawn from the battery. Ceramic

capacitors are required for input decoupling and should be located as close to the device as is practical.

If a different input capacitor is chosen, ensure similar ESR value and at least 1.6

supply voltage. Larger capacitor values (C) may be used without limitations.

Low ESR capacitors should be used to minimize VOUT ripple. Multi-layer ceramic capacitors are recommended since

they have extremely low ESR and are available in small footprints. The capacitor should be located as close to the

device as is practical.

X5R dielectric material is recommended due to their ability to maintain capacitance over wide voltage and temperature

range.

If a different output capacitor is chosen, ensure similar ESR values and at least 1.0µF capacitance at maximum output

voltage.

The fast switching frequency (4MHz) of the AS3644 allows for the use of small SMDs for the external inductor. The

inductor should have low DC resistance (DCR) to reduce the I

ciency.
