LTC3728L-1 Dual, 550kHz, 2-Phase Synchronous Regulator FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Dual, 180° Phased Controllers Reduce Required The LTC®3728L-1 is a dual high performance step-down Input Capacitance and Power Supply Induced Noise switching regulator controller that drives all N-channel n OPTI-LOOP ® Compensation Minimizes C synchronous power MOSFET stages. A constant frequency OUT n ±1.5% Output Voltage Accuracy current mode architecture allows phase-lockable frequency n of up to 550kHz. Power loss and noise due to the ESR of Power Good Output Voltage Indicator n the input capacitors are minimized by operating the two Phase-Lockable Fixed Frequency 250kHz to 550kHz controller output stages out of phase. The LTC3728L-1 n Over Current Latchoff Disabled is identical to the LTC3728L except that the LTC3728L-1 n Wide VIN Range: 4.5V to 28V (35V for LTC3728LI-1) lacks the over current latchoff feature. Operation n Very Low Dropout Operation: 99% Duty Cycle OPTI-LOOP compensation allows the transient response to n be optimized over a wide range of output capacitance and Adjustable Soft-Start Current Ramping n ESR values. The precision 0.8V reference and power good Foldback Output Current Limiting output indicator are compatible with future microproces- n Output Overvoltage Protection sor generations, and a wide 4.5V to 28V (30V maximum/ n Low Shutdown IQ: 20μA 35V for LTC3728LI-1) input supply range encompasses n 5V and 3.3V Standby Regulators all battery chemistries. n 3 Selectable Operating Modes: Constant Frequency, A RUN/SS pin for each controller provides soft-start. Burst Mode® Operation and PWM n Current foldback limits MOSFET dissipation during short- 5mm × 5mm QFN and 28-Lead Narrow SSOP circuit conditions. The FCB mode pin can select among Packages Burst Mode operation, constant frequency mode and APPLICATIONS continuous inductor current mode or regulate a secondary winding.
