LTC3458
1.4A, 1.5MHz Synchronous
Step-Up DC/DC Converter
with Output Disconnect
DESCRIPTIO
The LTC
®
3458 is a high efficiency, current mode, fixed
frequency, step up DC/DC converter with true output
disconnect and inrush current limiting. The LTC3458 is
rated for a 7.5V output and includes a 0.3Ω N-channel
MOSFET switch and a 0.4Ω P-channel MOSFET synchro-
nous rectifier. The LTC3458 is well suited for battery
powered applications and includes programmable output
voltage, switching frequency and loop compensation. The
oscillator frequency can be set up to 1.5MHz or synchro-
nized to an external clock.
Quiescent current is only 15μA during Burst Mode opera-
tion maximizing battery life in portable applications. The
Burst Mode current threshold, peak current limit, and soft-
start are externally programmable. Other features include
<1μA shutdown current, antiringing control, and thermal
limit. The LTC3458 is available in a low profile (0.75mm),

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:
This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to
protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active.

Note 3:
The LTC3458 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.
