The LT
廬
1767 is a 1.25MHz monolithic buck switching
regulator. A high efficiency 1.5A, 0.22鈩?switch is included
on the die together with all the control circuitry required to
complete a high frequency, current mode switching regu-
lator. Current mode control provides fast transient re-
sponse and excellent loop stability.
New design techniques achieve high efficiency at high
switching frequencies over a wide operating range. A low
dropout internal regulator maintains consistent perfor-
mance over a wide range of inputs from 24V systems to Li-
Ion batteries. An operating supply current of 1mA im-
proves efficiency, especially at lower output currents.
Shutdown reduces quiescent current to 6碌A(chǔ). Maximum
switch current remains constant at all duty cycles. Syn-
chronization allows an external logic level signal to in-
crease the internal oscillator from 1.4MHz to 2MHz.
The LT1767 is available in an 8-pin MSOP fused leadframe
package and a low thermal resistance exposed pad pack-
age. Full cycle-by-cycle short-circuit protection and ther-
mal shutdown are provided. High frequency operation
allows the reduction of input and output filtering compo-
nents and permits the use of chip inductors.
