Summit Microelectronics SMB20X Buck Regulators

Posted by Ken Cheung in Components on Tuesday, July 27, 2010

Summit Microelectronics introduced the SMB20X family of programmable power manager (PPM) integrated circuits. The SMB20X family includes the SMB207, 207A, 208, 208A, 209, 209A single- and dual-output integrated DC-DC buck regulators. The SMB20X family combines Summit’s digital programmability with dense integration, ultra-compact size, and cost-effective bill-of-materials (BoM) necessary for mass-market consumer products. The SMB20X family is available in a tiny thermally-enhanced, RoHS-compliant, lead-free 3mm X 3mm, 20-pad QFN. Available now in production quantities, the SMB20X family is priced between $1.00 each for the SMB207 to $1.40 each for the SMB208A/209A respectively in quantities of 10,000 units.
