The The programmable current limit circuit sets the maximum true output disconnect feature eliminates inrush current, peak current in the internal N-channel MOSFET switch. and allows VOUT to go to zero during shutdown. The This clamp level is programmed using a resistor to ground current mode architecture with adaptive slope compensa- on ILIM. In Burst Mode operation, the current limit is tion provides ease of loop compensation with excellent automatically set to ~1/4 of the programmed current limit transient load response.

High efficiency is achieved at light loads when Burst Mode operation is ILIMIT = 180 entered, where the IC’s quiescent current is a low 12μA R typical on VIN. The LTC3458L is designed to provide I is in amps and R is in kΩ. custom performance in a variety of applications with programmable feedback, current limit, oscillator frequency, soft-start, and Burst Mode threshold.
