LTC3417A Dual Synchronous 1.5A/1A 4MHz Step-Down DC/DC Regulator
FeaTures DescripTion
n
High Efficiency: Up to 95%
The LTC®3417A is a dual constant frequency, synchronous n
1.5A/1A Guaranteed Minimum Output Current
step-down DC/DC converter. Intended for medium power n
Synchronizable to External Clock
applications, it operates from a 2.25V to 5.5V input volt- n
No Schottky Diodes Required
age range and has a constant programmable switching n
Programmable Frequency Operation: 1.5MHz or
frequency, allowing the use of tiny, low cost capacitors
Adjustable From 0.6MHz to 4MHz
and inductors 2mm or less in height. Each output voltage n
Low RDS(ON) Internal Switches
is adjustable from 0.8V to 5V. Internal, synchronous, low n Short-Circuit Protected RDS(ON) power switches provide high efficiency without n VIN: 2.25V to 5.5V the need for external Schottky diodes. n Current Mode Operation for Excellent Line and Load A user selectable mode input allows the user to trade Transient Response off ripple voltage for light load efficiency. Burst Mode® n 125µA Quiescent Current in Sleep Mode operation provides high efficiency at light loads, while n Ultralow Shutdown Current: IQ < 1µA Pulse Skip mode provides low ripple noise at light loads. n Low Dropout Operation: 100% Duty Cycle A phase mode pin allows the second channel to operate n Power Good Output in-phase or 180° out-of-phase with respect to channel 1. n Phase Pin Selects 2nd Channel Phase Relationship Out-of-phase operation produces lower RMS current on VIN with Respect to 1st Channel and thus a lower RMS derating on the input capacitor. n Internal Soft-Start with Individual Run Pin Control n Available in Small Thermally Enhanced To further maximize battery life, the P-channel MOSFETs (5mm × 3mm) DFN and 20-Lead TSSOP Packages are turned on continuously in dropout (100% duty cycle)
applicaTions
and both channels draw a total quiescent current of only 125µA.
