3430 is a 200kHz monolithic buck switching regu-
lator that accepts input voltages up to 60V. A high efficiency
3A, 0.1鈩?switch is included on the die along with all the nec-
essary oscillator, control and logic circuitry. A current mode
architecture provides fast transient response and excellent
loop stability.
Special design techniques and a new high voltage process
achieve high efficiency over a wide input range. Efficiency
is maintained over a wide output current range by using the
output to bias the circuitry and by utilizing a supply boost
capacitor to saturate the power switch. Patented circuitry
maintains peak switch current over the full duty cycle range.
A shutdown pin reduces supply current to 30碌A(chǔ) and a SYNC
pin can be externally synchronized from 228kHz to 700kHz
with a logic level input.
The LT3430 is available in a thermally enhanced 16-pin
TSSOP package.
