AN34060A

Overview

The AN34060A is a triple-output buck switching regulator IC manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components. It provides fixed positive output voltages of 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V. The device operates within an ambient temperature range of -30°C to +85°C. It utilizes a TO-220-7 package for through-hole mounting. This component is classified under DC DC Switching Regulators and features a step-down topology.

Feature Summary

• Integrates three independent fixed voltage outputs in a single package
• Utilizes step-down (buck) switching regulator topology
• Designed for through-hole installation via TO-220-7 packaging

Applications

• Multi-voltage power supply systems requiring 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V rails
• Embedded electronics with multiple logic level requirements
• Industrial control units needing stable stepped-down DC inputs

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation carefully, as similar part numbers exist from onsemi with different functions. Confirm the specific suffix or variant matches the Panasonic Electronic Components specification. Ensure the TO-220-7 package type aligns with your PCB footprint requirements before ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact solution for three distinct fixed low-voltage outputs is required. It is suitable for designs where space efficiency outweighs the need for adjustable regulation. Consider the thermal performance of the TO-220 package relative to the expected load current and ambient conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the family of PMIC Voltage Regulators, specifically DC DC Switching Regulators. It serves as a dedicated power management solution for applications requiring multiple stable DC levels derived from a higher input voltage source without using linear regulators.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify compatibility with existing circuit designs if considering alternative multi-output regulators.
