FEATURES DESCRIPTION
n
Wide VIN Range: 3.1V to 20V
The LTC®3636/LTC3636-1 is a high efficiency, dual- n
Wide VOUT Range:
channel monolithic synchronous buck regulator using a n
0.6V to 5V (LTC3636)
controlled on-time current mode architecture, with phase n
1.8V to 12V (LTC3636-1)
lockable switching frequency. The operating supply volt- n
Output Current per Channel: 6A
age range is from 3.1V to 20V, making it suitable for n
High Efficiency: Up to 95%
lithium-ion battery stacks as well as point of load power n
Die Temperature Monitor
supply applications from a 12V or 5V input. n
Adjustable Switching Frequency: 500kHz to 4MHz
The operating frequency is programmable from 500kHz to n
External Frequency Synchronization
4MHz with an external resistor and may be synchronized n
Current Mode Operation for Excellent Line and
to an external clock signal. The high frequency capability
Load Transient Response
allows the use of small surface mount inductors and n 0.6V Reference Allows Low Output Voltages capacitors. The unique constant frequency/controlled on- n User Selectable Burst Mode® Operation or Forced time architecture is ideal for high step-down ratio applica- Continuous Operation tions that operate at high frequency while demanding fast n Output Voltage Tracking and Soft-Start Capability transient response. n Short-Circuit Protected n Overvoltage Input and Overtemperature Protection The LTC3636/LTC3636-1 can select between forced con- n Power Good Status Outputs tinuous mode and high efficiency Burst Mode operation. n Low Profile 4mm × 5mm 28-Lead QFN Package The LTC3636 and LTC3636-1 differ in their output voltage sense range.
