LTC3827-1
Low I
Q
, Dual, 2-Phase
Synchronous Step-Down Controller
DESCRIPTION
The LTC
®
3827-1 is a high performance dual step-down
switching regulator controller that drives all N-channel
synchronous power MOSFET stages. A constant frequency
current mode architecture allows a phase-lockable fre-
quency of up to 650kHz. Power loss and noise due to the
ESR of the input capacitor ESR are minimized by operating
the two controller output stages out of phase.
The 80μA no-load quiescent current extends operating
life in battery-powered systems. OPTI-LOOP compensa-
tion allows the transient response to be optimized over
a wide range of output capacitance and ESR values. The
LTC3827-1 features a precision 0.8V reference and a power
good output indicator. A wide 4V to 36V input supply range
encompasses all battery chemistries.
Independent TRACK/SS pins for each controller ramp the
output voltage during start-up. Current foldback limits
MOSFET heat dissipation during short-circuit conditions.
The PLLIN/MODE pin selects among Burst Mode opera-
tion, pulse-skipping mode, or continuous inductor cur-
rent mode at light loads. For a leadless package version
(5mm × 5mm QFN) with additional features, see the
LTC3827 data sheet.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
The LTC3827E-1 is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 85°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
with statistical process controls. The LTC3827I-1 is guaranteed to meet
performance specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating temperature
range.
Note 3:
T
J
is calculated from the ambient temperature T
A
and power
dissipation P
D
according to the following formula:
T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
• 95 °C/W)
Note 4:
The LTC3827-1 is tested in a feedback loop that servos V
ITH1, 2
to
a specified voltage and measures the resultant V
FB1, 2.
Note 5:
Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency. See Applications Information.
Note 6:
Rise and fall times are measured using 10% and 90% levels. Delay
times are measured using 50% levels.
Note 7:
The minimum on-time condition is specified for an inductor
peak-to-peak ripple current ≥ 40% of I
MAX
(see minimum on-time
considerations in the Applications Information section).
