The LTC
廬
3832/LTC3832-1 are high power, high effi-
ciency switching regulator controllers optimized for
3.3V-5V to 0.6V-3.xV step-down applications. A preci-
sion internal reference and feedback system provide
鹵1%
output regulation over temperature, load current
and line voltage variations. The LTC3832/LTC3832-1 use
a synchronous switching architecture with N-channel
MOSFETs. Additionally, the chip senses output current
through the drain-source resistance of the upper
N-channel MOSFET, providing an adjustable current limit
without a current sense resistor.
The LTC3832/LTC3832-1 operate with an input supply
voltage as low as 3V and with a maximum duty cycle of
>91% over temperature. They include a fixed frequency
PWM oscillator for low output ripple operation. The 300kHz
free-running clock frequency can be externally adjusted or
synchronized with an external signal from 100kHz to 500kHz.
In shutdown mode, the LTC3832 supply current drops to
<10碌A(chǔ). The LTC3832-1 is the SO-8 version without current
limit, frequency adjustment and shutdown functions.
