regulator controller that drives an all N-channel synchro-
nous power MOSFET stage. A constant-frequency current
mode architecture allows a phase-lockable frequency of
up to 650kHz.
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
LTC3835 features a precision 0.8V reference and a power
good output indicator. The 4V to 36V input supply range
encompasses a wide range of battery chemistries.
The TRACK/SS pin ramps the output voltage during start-
up. Current foldback limits MOSFET heat dissipation during
short-circuit conditions.

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 LTC3835E 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 LTC3835I is guaranteed to meet
performance specifications over the full –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 formulas:
LTC3835FE: T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
• 35°C/W)
LTC3835UFD: T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
• 37°C/W)
Note 4:
The LTC3835 is tested in a feedback loop that servos V
ITH
to a
specified voltage and measures the resultant V
FB
.
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).
