  • Page 4 The LM3485 is a Hysteretic P-FET Buck Controller, which uses a pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) scheme to regulate the output voltage. This LM3485 demo board and the recommended components are intended to demonstrate the performance with a 3.3V output from a 12V source. The demo board can be used with source voltages from 7V to 28V to deliver output load currents up to 1A.

  • Page 6 Figure 2. Component Location (Top Side) Layout Fundamentals The LM3485 can work in a wide range of applications. For your application circuit, proper layout for the buck regulator should be implemented by following a few simple guidelines. 1. Place the power components, which are the MOSFET, diode, inductor and filter capacitors, close together.
