The LTC
®
1909-8 is a synchronous step-down switching
regulator controller with a digitally programmable output
voltage. The output voltage is selected from one of two
5-bit settings programmed into internal registers via a
2-wire SMBus/I
2
C interface. The interface features safe-
guards against invalid output voltages and allows the mi-
croprocessor to turn the regulator on and off. Valley cur-
rent control delivers very low duty cycles without requiring
a sense resistor. Operating frequency is selected by an
external resistor and is compensated for variations in V
IN
and V
OUT
.
Discontinuous mode operation provides high efficiency
operation at light loads. A forced continuous control pin
reduces noise and RF interference and can assist second-
ary winding regulation by disabling discontinuous mode
operation when the main output is lightly loaded.
Fault protection is provided by internal foldback current
limiting, an output overvoltage comparator and optional
short-circuit shutdown timer.
The LTC1909-8 is available in the 28-lead SSOP package.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
The LTC1909-8E 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:
The LTC1909-8 is tested in a feedback loop that adjusts V
FB
to
achieve a specified error amplifier output voltage (I
TH
).
Note 4:
T
J
is calculated from the ambient temperature T
A
and power
dissipation P
D
as follows:
LTC1909-8E: T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
• 130°C/W)
Note 5:
All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device pins
are negative. All voltages are referenced to device ground unless otherwise
noted.
Note 6:
The divider error is tested in a feedback loop that adjusts FB to
0.8V for each 5-bit code.
Note 7:
These parameters are guaranteed by design and are not tested in
production. SMBus timing is referenced to V
IL
and V
IH
levels.
Note 8:
Dominated by the switching regulator. The delay due to the SMBus
VID programmer is only 500ns typ.
Note 9:
Measured from the rising edge of SDA during Data High
acknowledgment.
