The LTC
®
1704/LTC1704B include a high power synchro-
nous switching regulator controller plus a linear regulator
controller. The switching regulator controller is designed
to drive a pair of N-channel MOSFETs in a voltage mode,
synchronous buck configuration to provide the main sup-
ply. The constant frequency, true PWM architecture
switches at 550kHz, minimizing external component size,
cost and optimizing load transient performance. The
LTC1704 features automatic transition to power saving
Burst Mode operation at light loads. The LTC1704B does
not shift into Burst Mode operation at light loads, eliminat-
ing low frequency output ripple at the expense of light load
efficiency. The linear regulator controller is designed to
drive an external NPN power transistor to provide up to 2A
of current to an auxiliary load.
The LTC1704/LTC1704B deliver better than
±1.5%
DC
accuracy at the switcher outputs and
±2%
at the linear
regulator outputs. High performance feedback loops allow
the circuit to keep total output regulation within
±5%
under all transient conditions. An open-drain PGOOD
output indicates when both outputs are within
±10%
of
their regulated values.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
The LTC1704E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the – 40°C to 85°C operating
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
with statistical process controls.
Note 3:
All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device
pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to ground unless otherwise
specified.
Note 4:
PV
CC
and BV
CC
(V
BOOST
– V
SW
) must be greater than V
GS(ON)
of
the external MOSFETs to ensure proper operation.
Note 5:
Supply current in normal operation is dominated by the current
needed to charge and discharge the external MOSFET gates. This current
will vary with supply voltage and the external MOSFETs used.
Note 6:
Supply current in shutdown is dominated by external MOSFET
leakage and may be significantly higher than the quiescent current drawn
by the LTC1704, especially at elevated temperature.
Note 7:
Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 8:
Rise and fall times are measured using 10% and 90% levels. Delay
and nonoverlap times are measured using 50% levels.
Note 9:
Dropout voltage is the minimum V
CC
to V
REGDR
voltage differential
required to maintain regulation at the specified driver output current.
