HIP6004BCR

Special Purpose Regulators Overview

The HIP6004BCR is a synchronous buck controller manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It operates within an input voltage range of 4.5V to 32V and supports output voltages from 1.2V to 90% of the input supply. The device integrates high-side and low-side MOSFET drivers with a switching frequency adjustable up to 500kHz. It features a compact 20-VQFN package with an exposed pad for thermal management, ensuring reliable operation in power supply applications requiring efficient step-down conversion.

Special Purpose Regulators Feature Summary

• Integrates dedicated drivers for external N-channel MOSFETs to enable synchronous rectification
• Includes an exposed pad design to facilitate effective heat dissipation during operation
• Supports adjustable switching frequencies to optimize efficiency and component size

Special Purpose Regulators Applications

• Point-of-load DC-DC converters
• Industrial power distribution systems
• Telecommunications equipment power supplies

Special Purpose Regulators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'BCR' against official Renesas documentation to confirm package type and tape-and-reel configuration. Confirm product status as obsolete or limited availability through authorized channels before finalizing procurement plans. Ensure compatibility with existing thermal management designs due to the exposed pad requirement.

Special Purpose Regulators Selection Notes

Select this component when designing synchronous buck converters requiring wide input voltage ranges and high efficiency. Consider the 20-VQFN package constraints and thermal requirements for PCB layout. Verify that the target application does not require high-reliability variants designated for harsh environments, as standard versions may lack specific certifications.

Special Purpose Regulators Part Context

This part belongs to the HIP6004/5 family of synchronous buck controllers. It is related to variants such as HIP6004A and HIP6004B, which may offer different pinouts or feature sets. The BCR suffix typically denotes a specific package and reel configuration within the broader product line managed by Renesas Electronics.

Special Purpose Regulators Replacement Considerations

Consult official substitution guides for equivalents like the HIP6004A or HIP6004B series. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before replacing. Note that some variants may have different control interfaces or thermal characteristics.
