LTC3810-5 60V Current Mode Synchronous Switching Regulator Controller FeaTuresDescripTion n High Voltage Operation: Up to 60V The LTC®3810-5 is a synchronous step-down switching n Large 1 Ω Gate Drivers regulator controller that can directly step-down voltages n No Current Sense Resistor Required from up to 60V, making it ideal for telecom and automo- n Dual N-Channel MOSFET Synchronous Drive tive applications. The LTC3810-5 uses a constant on-time n Extremely Fast Transient Response valley current control architecture to deliver very low duty n ±0.5% 0.8V Voltage Reference cycles with accurate cycle-by-cycle current limit, without n Programmable Output Voltage Tracking/Soft-Start requiring a sense resistor. n Generates 5.5V Driver Supply from Input Supply A precise internal reference provides 0.5% DC accuracy. A n Synchronizable to External Clock high bandwidth (25MHz) error amplifier provides very fast n Selectable Pulse Skip Mode Operation line and load transient response. Large 1Ω gate drivers n Power Good Output Voltage Monitor allow the LTC3810-5 to drive multiple MOSFETs for higher n Adjustable On-Time/Frequency: tON(MIN) < 100ns current applications. The operating frequency is selected n Adjustable Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit by an external resistor and is compensated for variations n Programmable Undervoltage Lockout in VIN and can also be synchronized to an external clock n Output Overvoltage Protection for switching-noise sensitive applications. A shutdown n 5mm × 5mm QFN Package pin allows the LTC3810-5 to be turned off, reducing the supply current to 240µA. applicaTions Integrated bias control generates gate drive power from n 48V Telecom and Base Station Power Supplies the input supply during start-up or when an output short- n Networking Equipment, Servers circuit occurs, with the addition of a small external SOT23 n Automotive and Industrial Control Systems MOSFET.
