The LT3433 bridged topology merges the elements of buck and boost Most current mode switching controllers use slope com- topologies, providing switches on both sides of the induc- pensation to prevent current mode instability.

The end result is that IN SW OUT current limit is not compromised so the LT3433 can provide full power regardless of required duty cycle.

While in buck mode, if the 3433 F01 converter input voltage becomes close enough to the output voltage to require a duty cycle greater than 75%, Maximum duty cycle capability (DC the LT3433 enables a second switch which pulls the MAX) gates the dropout capabilities of a buck converter. As V output side of the inductor to ground during the switch-on IN – VOUT is reduced, the required duty cycle increases until DC time.
