MCT8316Z: Buck Regulator resistor unit in datasheet

Daan Boesten

Part Number: MCT8316Z

Hi, Table 8-5 in the datasheet for the MCT8316Z shows the wrong unit for the resistor for the buck regulator. Should it be Ω, kΩ?

Thank you

Hi Daan,

Thank you for pointing this out we will correct this as soon as possible.

As for the correct unit, this resistor should be labeled as 22 Ω.

For more information on this recommendation of using a 22 Ω Resistor and how to calculate the efficiency of the integrated buck in resistor mode, please refer to our Integrated Buck Regulators in the 8316 family FAQ.

Regards,

Joshua
