DESCRIPTION
The LTC
®
3873 is a constant frequency current mode,
boost, flyback or SEPIC DC/DC controller that drives an
N-channel power MOSFET in high input and output volt-
age converter applications. Soft-start can be programmed
using an external capacitor.
The LTC3873 provides ±1.5% output voltage accuracy and
consumes only 300μA quiescent current during normal
operation and only 55μA during micropower start-up.
Using a 9.3V internal shunt regulator, the LTC3873 can
be powered from a high input voltage through a resistor
or it can be powered directly from a low impedance DC
voltage of 9V or less.
The LTC3873 is available in 8-lead ThinSOT and 2mm
×
3mm DFN packages.

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 LTC3873E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 85°C junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C
to 85°C operating junction temperature range are assured by design,
characterization and correlation with statistical process controls.
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
•
θ
JA
)
Note 4:
The dynamic input supply current is higher due to power MOSFET
gate charging (Q
G
• f
OSC
). See Applications Information.
Note 5:
The LTC3873 is tested in a feedback loop which servos V
FB
to
the reference voltage with the I
TH
pin forced to the midpoint of its voltage
range (0.7V ≤ V
ITH
≤ 1.9V, midpoint = 1.3V).
Note 6:
Rise and fall times are measured at 10% and 90% levels.
V
CC
= 5.6V.

PIN FUNCTIONS
(TS8/DDB)
IPRG (Pin 1/Pin 4):
Current Sense Limit Select Pin.
I
TH
(Pin 2/Pin 3):
This pin serves as the error amplifier
compensation point. Nominal voltage range for this pin
is 0.7V to 1.9V.
V
FB
(Pin 3/Pin 2):
This pin receives the feedback voltage
from an external resistor divider across the output.
GND (Pin 4/Pin 1):
Ground Pin.
NGATE (Pin 5/Pin 8):
Gate Drive for the External N-Channel
MOSFET. This pin swings from 0V to V
IN
.
V
CC
(Pin 6/Pin 7):
Supply Pin. This pin must be closely
decoupled to GND (Pin 4).
RUN/SS (Pin 7/Pin 6):
Shutdown and External Soft-Start
Pin. In shutdown, all functions are disabled and the NGATE
pin is held low.
SW (Pin 8/Pin 5):
Switch node connection to inductor and
current sense input pin through external slope compensa-
tion resistor. Normally, the external N-channel MOSFET’s
drain is connected to this pin.
Exposed Pad (NA/Pin 9):
Ground. Must be soldered to PCB
for electrical contact and rated thermal performance.
