Description
The SC220 is a 20MHz X-EMI™(1)-enabled step-down regulator optimized for powering low voltage rails from 2.7 to 5.5V input voltage. X-EMI™ inductor technology enables inductors to be drawn directly on the PC board. This technology meets or exceeds the EMI performance of chip inductors and eliminates the need for discrete inductors.
