Additional Details

The PT4117E23F utilizes a hysteretic control scheme, resulting in good regulation and fast transient response. The output current is set by an external resistor. The device's internal soft-start function limits inrush current during startup. The PT4117E23F also incorporates over-temperature protection, which shuts down the device if the junction temperature exceeds a safe limit. Datasheets should be consulted to confirm the exact differences implied by the E23F suffix.
