LTC3610 24V, 12A Monolithic Synchronous Step-Down DC/DC Converter Features Description ■
12A Output Current
The LTC®3610 is a high efficiency, monolithic synchronous ■
Wide VIN Range = 4V to 24V
step-down DC/DC converter that can deliver up to 12A ■
Internal N-Channel MOSFETs
output current from a 4V to 24V (28V maximum) input ■
True Current Mode Control
supply. It uses a valley current control architecture to de- ■
Optimized for High Step-Down Ratios
liver very low duty cycle operation at high frequency with ■
tON(MIN) ≤100ns
excellent transient response. The operating frequency is ■
Extremely Fast Transient Response
selected by an external resistor and is compensated for ■
Stable with Ceramic COUT
variations in VIN and VOUT. ■
±1% 0.6V Voltage Reference
The LTC3610 can be configured for discontinuous or ■ Power Good Output Voltage Monitor forced continuous operation at light load. Forced continu- ■ Adjustable On-Time/Switching Frequency ous operation reduces noise and RF interference while ■ Adjustable Current Limit discontinuous mode provides high efficiency by reducing ■ Programmable Soft-Start switching losses at light loads. ■ Output Overvoltage Protection ■ Optional Short-Circuit Shutdown Timer Fault protection is provided by internal foldback current ■ Low Shutdown I limiting, an output overvoltage comparator and an optional Q: 15µA ■ Available in a 9mm × 9mm 64-Pin QFN Package short-circuit shutdown timer. Soft-start capability for sup- ply sequencing is accomplished using an external timing applications capacitor. The regulator current limit is user programmable. A power good output voltage monitor indicates when ■ Point of Load Regulation the output is in regulation. The LTC3610 is available in a ■ Distributed Power Systems compact 9mm × 9mm QFN package.
