LT3988 Dual 60V Monolithic 1A Step-Down Switching Regulator FeaTuresDescripTion n Wide Input Range: The LT®3988 is a dual, current mode, step-down, DC/DC Operation from 4.1V to 60V converter that accepts two input voltages up to 60V (80V Overvoltage Lockout Protects Circuit Through transient), which may be driven from separate supplies or 80V Transients can be cascaded. High efficiency switches are included on n Two 1A Output Switching Regulators with Internal the die along with internal boost diodes and loop compensa- Power Switches tion. Both converters are capable of generating 1A outputs, n Short Circuit Robust are synchronized to a single oscillator programmable up n Adjustable 250kHz to 2.5MHz Switching Frequency, to 2.5MHz, and run with opposite phases, reducing input Synchronizable Over the Full Range ripple current. n Integrated Boost Diodes The switching frequency is set with a single resistor yield- n Integrated Loop Compensation ing a range of 250kHz to 2.5MHz, or a clock signal can n Anti-Phase Switching Reduces Ripple be applied to the SYNC pin. The LT3988’s high switching n Low Shutdown IQ (<2µA) frequency allows the use of small inductors and capacitors, n Uses Small Inductors and Ceramic Capacitors resulting in a very small dual output supply. The constant n Thermally Enhanced, 16-Lead MSOP Package switching frequency, combined with low impedance ce- ramic capacitors, results in low, predictable output ripple. applicaTions A current mode PWM architecture provides fast transient n response with cycle-by-cycle current limiting.
