DescripTion
The LTC
®
3544B is a quad, high efficiency, monolithic
synchronous buck regulator using a constant frequency,
current mode architecture. The four regulators operate in-
dependently with separate run pins. The 2.25V to 5.5V input
voltage range makes the LTC3544B well suited for single
Li-Ion/polymer battery-powered applications. 100% duty
cycle provides low dropout operation, extending battery
runtime in portable systems. At moderate and low output
load levels PWM pulse skip mode operation provides very
low output ripple voltage for noise sensitive applications.
Switching frequency is internally set to 2.25MHz, al-
lowing the use of small surface mount inductors and
capacitors.
The internal synchronous switches increase efficiency
and eliminate the need for external Schottky diodes. Low
output voltages are easily supported with the 0.8V feedback
reference voltage.
The LTC3544B is available in a low profile (0.75mm)
(3mm

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 LTC3544BE is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 85°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
)(68°C/W).
Note 4:
This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature is active.
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 5:
The LTC3544B is tested in a proprietary test mode that connects
V
FB
to the output of the error amplifier.
Note 6:
Load regulation is inferred by measuring the regulation loop gain.
Note 7:
The QFN switch on-resistance is guaranteed by correlation to
wafer level measurements.
Note 8:
Guaranteed by long-term current density limitations.
