LT8609S 42V, 2A/3A Peak Synchronous Step-Down Regulator with 2.5µA Quiescent Current FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Silent Switcher ® 2 Architecture The LT®8609S is a compact, high efficiency, high speed n Ultralow EMI Emissions on Any PCB synchronous monolithic step-down switching regulator n Eliminates PCB Layout Sensitivity that consumes only 1.7µA of non-switching quiescent n Internal Bypass Capacitors Reduce Radiated EMI current. The LT8609S can deliver 2A of continuous cur- n Optional Spread Spectrum Modulation rent with peak loads of 3A (<1sec) to support applications n Wide Input Voltage Range: 3.0V to 42V such as GSM transceivers which require high transient n Ultralow Quiescent Current Burst Mode ® Operation: loads. Top and bottom power switches are included with n <2.5µA IQ Regulating 12VIN to 3.3VOUT all necessary circuitry to minimize the need for external n Output Ripple <10mVP-P components. Low ripple Burst Mode operation enables n High Efficiency 2MHz Synchronous Operation: high efficiency down to very low output currents while n >93% Efficiency at 1A, 12VIN to 5VOUT keeping the output ripple below 10mVP-P. A SYNC pin n 2A Maximum Continuous Output, 3A Peak Transient allows synchronization to an external clock, or spread Output spectrum modulation of switching frequencies for low n Fast Minimum Switch-On Time: 45ns EMI operation. Internal compensation with peak current n Adjustable and Synchronizable: 200kHz to 2.2MHz mode topology allows the use of small inductors and n Allows Use of Small Inductors results in fast transient response and good loop stability. n Low Dropout The EN/UV pin has an accurate 1V threshold and can be n Peak Current Mode Operation used to program VIN undervoltage lockout or to shut down n Internal Compensation the LT8609S reducing the input supply current to 1µA.
