The LTC
®
3549 is a high efficiency, monolithic synchronous
buck regulator using a constant-frequency, current mode
architecture. The output voltage is adjusted via an external
resistor divider.
A fixed switching frequency of 2.25MHz is supported.
This switching frequency allows the use of small surface
mount inductors and capacitors, including ceramics.
Supply current during Burst Mode operation is only 50µA
dropping to < 1µA in shutdown. The 1.6V to 5.5V input
voltage range makes the LTC3549 ideally suited for single
cell Li-Ion, Li-Metal and 2-cell alkaline, NiCd or NiMH
battery-powered applications. 100% duty cycle capabil-
ity provides low dropout operation, extending battery
life in portable systems. Burst Mode operation can be
user-enabled, increasing efficiency at light loads, further
extending battery life.
The internal synchronous switch increases efficiency and
eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode. Internal
soft-start offers controlled output voltage rise time at start-
up without the need for external components.

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. Voltage on any pin may not exceed 6V.
Note 2:
The LTC3549E 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:
LTC3549: T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
)(64°C/W)
This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to protect the
device during momentary overload conditions. Overtemperature protection
becomes active at a junction temperature greater than the maximum
operating junction temperature. Continuous operation above the specified
maximum operating junction temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 4:
The LTC3549 is tested in a proprietary test mode that connects V
FB
to the output of the error amplifier.
Note 5:
Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency.
Note 6:
ΔV
OVL
is the amount V
FB
must exceed the regulated feedback
voltage.
Note 7:
Determined by design, not production tested.
