AP62300TWU-7: 3 A Synchronous Buck Converter, 4.2 to 18 V (Diodes Inc)
Diodes Incorporated AP62300T is a 3 A synchronous step-down converter with integrated 75 mΩ high-side and 45 mΩ low-side MOSFETs. Constant on-time (COT) control means fast transient response and almost no loop compensation work: an inductor, three capacitors and a feedback divider make a supply. It drops to PFM at light load for 155 µA quiescent current, and the gate driver is shaped for low radiated EMI.

This is the
Tvariant.AP62300TWU-7is the AP62300T: feedback reference 0.763 V, not the 0.800 V ofAP62300WU-7. Same pinout, same footprint, same package, but the divider math differs and the two are not drop-in equivalent at a fixed output.AP62301is the third sibling: 0.800 V reference, PWM only (no PFM), 275 µA IQ.

Setting the output voltage
R1 sits between VOUT and FB, R2 from FB to GND:
R1 = R2 × (VOUT / 0.763 − 1)
Diodes' recommended values for this variant, all with R2 = 10 kΩ:
| VOUT | R1 (AP62300T) | L | CIN | COUT | CFF (optional) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.2 V | 5.76 kΩ | 1.5 µH | 10 µF | 2 × 22 µF | open |
| 1.5 V | 9.76 kΩ | 1.5 µH | 10 µF | 2 × 22 µF | open |

| 5.0 V | 56.2 kΩ | 3.3 µH | 10 µF | 2 × 22 µF | 10 … 100 pF |
The R1 column is different for the 0.800 V parts (AP62300/AP62301), so do not copy a
divider from an AP62300WU-7 design onto this part.
