1772 is a constant frequency current mode step-
down DC/DC controller providing excellent AC and DC load
and line regulation. The device incorporates an accurate
undervoltage lockout feature that shuts down the LTC1772
when the input voltage falls below 2.0V.
The LTC1772 provides a
±2.5%
output voltage accuracy
and consumes only 270µA of quiescent current. For
applications where efficiency is a prime consideration, the
LTC1772 is configured for Burst Mode operation, which
enhances efficiency at low output current.
To further maximize the life of a battery source, the
external P-channel MOSFET is turned on continuously in
dropout (100%dutycycle).In shutdown, the device draws
a mere 8µA. High constant operating frequency of 550kHz
allows the use of a small external inductor.
The LTC1772 is available in a small footprint 6-lead
SOT-23.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
The LTC1772E is guaranteed to meet 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. The LTC1772I is guaranteed to meet specified
performance from –40°C to 85°C. The LTC1772H is guaranteed to meet
specified performance from –40°C to 140°C.

Operation at high junction temperatures degrades operating lifetimes.
Operating lifetimes at junction temperatures greater than 125°C is derated
to 1000 hours.
Note 4:
Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency.
Note 5:
The LTC1772 is tested in a feedback loop that servos V

PIN FUNCTIONS
I
TH
/RUN (Pin 1):
This pin performs two functions. It
serves as the error amplifier compensation point as well as
the run control input. The current comparator threshold
increases with this control voltage. Nominal voltage range
for this pin is 0.7V to 1.9V. Forcing this pin below 0.35V
causes the device to be shut down. In shutdown all
functions are disabled and the PGATE pin is held high.
GND (Pin 2):
Ground Pin.
V

(Pin 3):
Receives the feedback voltage from an exter-
nal resistive divider across the output.

OPERATIO
Main Control Loop
The LTC1772 is a constant frequency current mode switch-
ing regulator. During normal operation, the external
P-channel power MOSFET is turned on each cycle when
the oscillator sets the RS latch (RS1) and turned off when
the current comparator (ICMP) resets the latch. The peak
inductor current at which ICMP resets the RS latch is
controlled by the voltage on the I
TH
/RUN pin, which is the
output of the error amplifier EAMP. An external resistive
divider connected between V
OUT
and ground allows the
EAMP to receive an output feedback voltage V
FB
. When the
load current increases, it causes a slight decrease in V
FB
relative to the 0.8V reference, which in turn causes the
I
TH
/RUN voltage to increase until the average inductor
current matches the new load current.
The main control loop is shut down by pulling the I
TH
/RUN
pin low. Releasing I
TH
/RUN allows an internal 0.5µA
current source to charge up the external compensation
network. When the I
TH
/RUN pin reaches 0.35V, the main
control loop is enabled with the I
TH
/RUN voltage then
pulled up to its zero current level of approximately 0.7V.
As the external compensation network continues to charge
up, the corresponding output current trip level follows,
allowing normal operation.
Comparator OVP guards against transient overshoots
> 7.5% by turning off the external P-channel power
MOSFET and keeping it off until the fault is removed.
Burst Mode Operation
The LTC1772 enters Burst Mode operation at low load
currents. In this mode, the peak current of the inductor is
set as if V
ITH
/RUN = 1V (at low duty cycles) even though
the voltage at the I
TH
/RUN pin is at a lower value. If the
inductor’s average current is greater than the load require-
ment, the voltage at the I
TH
/RUN pin will drop. When the
I
TH
/RUN voltage goes below 0.85V, the sleep signal goes
high, turning off the external MOSFET. The sleep signal
goes low when the I
TH
/RUN voltage goes above 0.925V
and the LTC1772 resumes normal operation. The next
U
(Refer to Functional Diagram)
oscillator cycle will turn the external MOSFET on and the
switching cycle repeats.
Dropout Operation
When the input supply voltage decreases towards the
output voltage, the rate of change of inductor current
during the ON cycle decreases. This reduction means that
the external P-channel MOSFET will remain on for more
than one oscillator cycle since the inductor current has not
ramped up to the threshold set by EAMP. Further reduc-
tion in input supply voltage will eventually cause the
P-channel MOSFET to be turned on 100%, i.e., DC. The
output voltage will then be determined by the input voltage
minus the voltage drop across the MOSFET, the sense
resistor and the inductor.
Undervoltage Lockout
To prevent operation of the P-channel MOSFET below safe
input voltage levels, an undervoltage lockout is incorpo-
rated into the LTC1772. When the input supply voltage
drops below approximately 2.0V, the P-channel MOSFET
and all circuitry is turned off except the undervoltage block,
which draws only several microamperes.
Short-Circuit Protection
When the output is shorted to ground, the frequency of the
oscillator will be reduced to about 120kHz. This lower
frequency allows the inductor current to safely discharge,
thereby preventing current runaway. The oscillator’s fre-
quency will gradually increase to its designed rate when
the feedback voltage again approaches 0.8V.
Overvoltage Protection
As a further protection, the overvoltage comparator in the
LTC1772 will turn the external MOSFET off when the
feedback voltage has risen 7.5% above the reference
voltage of 0.8V. This comparator has a typical hysteresis
of 20mV.
