The µA78S40 is a switching regulator subsystem, consisting of a temperature compensated voltage reference, controlled–duty cycle oscillator with an active current limit circuit, comparator, high–current and high–voltage output switch, capable of 1.5 A and 40 V, pinned–out power diode and an uncommitted operational amplifier, which can be powered up or down independent of the IC supply.

• Output Adjustable from 1.25 V to 40 V
• Peak Output Current of 1.5 A Without External Transistor
• 80 dB Line and Load Regulation
• Operation from 2.5 V to 40 V Supply
• Low Standby Current Drain
• High Gain, High Output Current, Uncommitted Op Amp
