The LTC3865/LTC3865-1 are high performance dual synchronous step-down DC/DC switching regulator controllers that drive all N-channel synchronous power MOSFET stages. A constant frequency current mode architecture allows a phase-lockable frequency of up to 770kHz. Power loss and noise are minimized by operating the two controller output stages out of phase.
OPTI-LOOP® compensation allows the transient response to be optimized over a wide range of output capacitance and ESR values. Independent track/soft-start pins for each controller ramp the output voltage during start-up. Current foldback limits MOSFET heat dissipation during short-circuit conditions. The MODE/PLLIN pin selects among Burst Mode® operation, pulse-skipping mode, and continuous inductor current mode. The output voltages can be precisely programmed by pin strapping or external resistors.
The LTC3865/LTC3865-1 are available in low profile (5mm × 5mm) 32-pin QFN and 38-Lead thermally enhanced TSSOP packages.
