Thermal Regulation

The BP9833A integrates thermal regulation function.

When the system is over temperature, the output
current is gradually reduced; the output power and
thermal dissipation are also reduced. The system
temperature is regulated and the system reliability is
improved. The thermal regulation temperature is set
to 150 internally.

PCB Layout

The following rules should be followed in BP9833A

PCB layout:
Bypass Capacitor
The bypass capacitor on VCC pin should be as close
as possible to the VCC Pin and GND pin.

ROVP Pin

The ROVP resistor should be as close as possible to

the ROVP Pin.

Ground Path

The power ground path for current sense should be

short, and the power ground path should be separated
from small signal ground path before connecting to
the negative node of the bulk capacitor.

The Area of Power Loop

The area of main current loop should be as small as

possible to reduce EMI radiation, such as the
inductor, the power MOSFET, the output diode and
