LT3682 1A Micropower Step-Down Switching Regulator FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Wide Input Range: The LT®3682 is an adjustable frequency (250kHz to Operation from 3.6V to 36V 2.2MHz) monolithic buck switching regulator that accepts Overvoltage Lockout Protects Circuits through input voltages up to 36V. A high effi ciency 0.5Ω switch is 60VTransients included on the device along with a boost diode and the n 1A Output Current necessary oscillator, control, and logic circuitry. Current n Low Ripple Burst Mode ® Operation mode topology is used for fast transient response and good IQ = 75μA at 12VIN to 3.3VOUT loop stability. A SYNC pin allows the user to synchronize the Output Ripple < 15mVP-P part to an external clock, and to choose between Low Ripple n Adjustable Switching Frequency: 250kHz to 2.2MHz Burst Mode operation and standard PWM operation. n Short-Circuit Protected The Low Ripple Burst Mode maintains high effi ciency at n Synchronizable Between 300kHz and 2.2MHz low output currents while keeping output ripple below n 0.8V Feedback Reference Voltage 15mV in typical applications. Shutdown reduces input n Output Voltage 0.8V to 20V supply current to less than 1μA while a resistor and n Soft-Start Capability capacitor on the RUN/SS pin provide a controlled output n Power Good Flag voltage ramp (soft-start). A power good fl ag signals when n Small 12-Pin Thermally Enhanced 3mm × 3mm VOUT reaches 90% of the programmed output voltage. DFN Package Protection circuitry senses the current in the power switch and external Schottky catch diode to protect the LT3682 against short-circuit conditions. Frequency foldback and APPLICATIONS thermal shutdown provide additional protection. n Automotive Battery Regulation The LT3682 is available in a 12-Pin 3mm × 3mm DFN with n Automotive Entertainment Systems exposed pad for low thermal resistance. n Industrial Supplies L, LT, LTC and LTM are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.
