The LTC
®
3408 is a high efficiency monolithic synchro-
nous buck regulator optimized for WCDMA power ampli-
fier applications. The output voltage can be dynamically
programmed from 0.3V to 3.5V. At V
OUT
> 3.6V an internal
0.08Ω bypass P-channel MOSFET connects V
OUT
directly
to V
IN
, eliminating power loss through the inductor.
The input voltage range is 2.5V to 5V making the LTC3408
ideally suited for single Li-Ion battery-powered applica-
tions. 100% duty cycle provides low dropout operation,
extending battery life in portable systems.
Switching frequency is internally set at 1.5MHz, allowing
the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors.
The internal synchronous switch increases efficiency and
eliminates the need for an external Schottky diode.
The LTC3408 is available in a low profile (0.75mm) 8-lead
3mm
×
3mm DFN package.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
The LTC3408E 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:
LTC3408: T
J
= T
A
+ (P

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Note 4:
When V
REF
> 1.2V and V
REF
x3 > V
IN
, the P-channel FET will be on
in parallel with the bypass PFET reducing the overall R
DS(ON)
.
Note 5:
This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to
protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active.
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.
