LT3504 Quad 40V/1A Step-Down Switching Regulator with 100% Duty Cycle Operation FeaTuresDescripTion n Wide Input Range: 3.2V to 40V The LT®3504 consists of four 1A output current buck n Four 1A Outputs regulators. The LT3504 has a wide operating input range n 100% Duty Cycle Operation of 3.2V to 40V. An on-chip boost regulator allows each n Resistor-Programmed Constant Frequency channel to operate up to 100% duty cycle and eliminates n Short-Circuit Robust the need for four external charge pump circuits. The LT3504 n Wide SYNC Range: 350kHz to 2.2MHz is designed to minimize external component count and n Anti-Phase Switching Reduces Ripple results in a simple and small application circuit. n 800mV FB Voltage The LT3504 operates robustly in fault conditions. Cycle- n Independent Run/Soft-Start Pins by-cycle peak current limit and catch diode current limit n Shutdown with UVLO sensing protect the part during overload conditions. Ther- n Internal Compensation mal shutdown protects the power switches at elevated n Thermal Shutdown temperatures. Soft-start helps keep the peak inductor n Tiny 28-Lead (4mm × 5mm) Thermally Enhanced current under control during startup. QFN Package The LT3504 also features output voltage tracking and applicaTions sequencing, programmable frequency, programmable undervoltage lockout, and a power good pin to indicate n Automotive Battery Regulation when all outputs are in regulation. n Industrial Control Supplies L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology, the Linear logo and Burst Mode are registered trademarks n Wall Transformer Regulation of Linear Technology Corporation.
