STMicroelectronics’ L6983 38V/3A synchronous DC/DC converters maintain high efficiency at all loads with a maximum value of 95% and are highly integrated with synchronous MOSFETs on-chip to save external components and simplify design.

The L6983 converters have extremely low quiescent current of just 17µA. Low current consumption (L6983C) and low-noise (L6983N) variants are available. The L6983C enters pulse-skipping mode when the load current is below 0.6A while the L6983N, suitable for noise-sensitive applications, stays in PWM (pulse-width modulation) mode at all loads to minimize electromagnetic disturbances.

With a wide input-voltage range from 3.5V to 38V, L6983 converters are an efficient and flexible solution for 12V and 24V industrial bus-powered systems, battery-powered equipment, decentralized intelligent nodes such as smart-building controllers, and always-on devices including smart sensors. They can be ordered with 3.3V, 5V, or adjustable output voltage (more info).
