The LTC
®
1700 is a current mode synchronous step-up
DC/DC controller that drives external N-channel and
P-channel power MOSFETs using a constant frequency
PWM architecture. Current limiting is provided by sensing
the voltage drop across the main MOSFET, eliminating the
need of a sense resistor. This No R
SENSE
TM
technique helps
the LTC1700 maintain high efficiency at heavy loads while
Burst Mode operation ensures high efficiency at light loads,
thus providing high efficiencies over a wide range of load
currents.
The LTC1700 operates at a minimum input voltage as low as
0.9V. The device boasts a
±1.5%
output voltage accuracy and
consumes only 200µA of quiescent current. In shutdown, it
only draws 10µA.
To prevent inductor current runaway, the duty cycle is limited
to 90%. Overvoltage protection is also provided which shuts
both the external MOSFETs off when tripped.
High constant operating frequency of 530kHz allows the use
of small inductors and output capacitors. The LTC1700 can
also be synchronized between 400kHz to 750kHz. Burst
Mode operation is inhibited when the device is externally
clocked or when the SYNC/MODE pin is pulled low to reduce
noise and RF interference.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
The LTC1700E 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:
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
• 150°C/W)
Note 4:
At an input supply less than 2.3V, only the start-up circuitry of the
LTC1700 is active. This test ensures the start-up circuitry is working.
Note 5:
An input supply at or above this minimum operating voltage
activates the main control loop. Start-up circuitry of the LTC1700 is
shut off.
Note 6:
Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency.
Note 7:
The LTC1700 is tested in a feedback loop that servos V
FB
to the
feedback point for the error amplifier (V
ITH
= 0.6V)

PIN FUNCTIONS
SGND (Pin 1):
Small-Signal Ground. Must be routed
separately from other grounds to the (–) terminal of C
OUT
.
I
TH
(Pin 2):
Error Amplifier Compensation Point. The
current comparator threshold increases with this control
voltage. Nominal voltage range for this pin is 0V to 1.18V.
V
FB
(Pin 3):
Receives the feedback voltage from an exter-
nal resistive divider across the output capacitor.
RUN/SS (Pin 4):
Combination of Soft-Start and Run
Control Inputs. A capacitor to ground at this pin sets the
ramp time to full output current. The time is approximately
0.45s/µF. Forcing this pin below 1.08V causes all circuitry
to be shut down.
SYNC/MODE (Pin 5):
This pin performs three functions. A
voltage greater than 1.2V on this pin allows Burst Mode
operation at low load currents, while grounding or apply-
ing a clock signal on this pin defeats Burst Mode operation.
An external clock between 400kHz and 750kHz applied to
this pin forces the LTC1700 to operate at the external clock
frequency.
Do not attempt to synchronize below 400kHz
or above 750kHz.
TG (Pin 6):
Top Gate Drive. Drives the external synchro-
nous P-channel MOSFET with a voltage swing between 0V
to V
OUT
.
V
OUT
(Pin 7):
This pin performs two functions. It serves as
the supply pin and also as one of the inputs to the current
reversal comparator.
BG (Pin 8):
Bottom Gate Drive. Drives the external main
N-channel MOSFET with a voltage swing between 0V to
V
OUT
.
PGND (Pin 9):
Top and Bottom Gate Drivers Ground.
Connects to the (–) terminal of C
OUT
. Source of the main
N-channel MOSFET must be connected close to this pin
since this pin is also one of the inputs to the V
DS
sense
amplifier.
SW (Pin 10):
This pin connects to the inputs of two
comparators: The V
DS
sense amplifier and the current
reversal comparator. The drain of an internal N-channel
start-up MOSFET (M1) is also connected to this pin.
