step-down DC/DC converter that can deliver up to 6A output
current from a 4V to 32V (36V maximum) input supply. It
uses a valley current control architecture to deliver very
low duty cycle operation at high frequency with excellent
transient response. The operating frequency is selected
by an external resistor and is compensated for variations
in V
IN
and V
OUT
.
The LTC3609 can be configured for discontinuous or
forced continuous operation at light load. Forced continu-
ous operation reduces noise and RF interference while
discontinuous mode provides high efficiency by reducing
switching losses at light loads.
Fault protection is provided by internal foldback current
limiting, an output overvoltage comparator and an optional
short-circuit shutdown timer. Soft-start capability for sup-
ply sequencing is accomplished using an external timing
capacitor. The regulator current limit is user programmable.
A power good output voltage monitor indicates when
the output is in regulation. The LTC3609 is available in a
compact 7mm

8mm QFN package.

). The specification at
85°C is not tested in production. This specification is assured by design,
characterization, and correlation to testing at 125°C.

characterization and correlation with statistical process controls. The
LTC3609I is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction
