General Description
The XL4015 is a 180 KHz fixed frequency
PWM buck (step-down) DC/DC converter,
capable of driving a 5A load with high
efficiency, low ripple and excellent line and
load regulation. Requiring a minimum
number of external components, the regulator
is simple to use and include internal
frequency compensation and a
fixed-frequency oscillator.
The PWM control circuit is able to adjust the
duty ratio linearly from 0 to 100%. An over
current protection function is built inside.
When short protection function happens, the
operation frequency will be reduced from
180KHz to 48KHz. An internal compensation
block is built in to minimize external
component count.

Pin Configurations
Figure2. Pin Configuration of XL4015 (Top View)
Table 1 Pin Description
Pin Number Pin Name Description
1 GND
Ground Pin. Care must be taken in layout. This pin should be
placed outside of the Schottky Diode to output capacitor
ground path to prevent switching current spikes from inducing
voltage noise into XL4015.
2 FB
Feedback Pin (FB). Through an external resistor pider
network, FB senses the output voltage and regulates it. The
feedback threshold voltage is 1.25V.
3 SW Power Switch Output Pin (SW). SW is the switch node that
supplies power to the output.
4 VC Internal Voltage Regulator Bypass Capacity. In typical system
application, The VC pin connect a 1uf capacity to VIN.
5 VIN
Supply Voltage
