by releasing the RUN pin, the TRACK/SS pin is charged up by an internal 1μA current source and rises linearly from The LTC3809-1 uses a constant frequency, current mode 0V to above 0.6V. The error amplifi er EAMP compares the architecture. During normal operation, the top external feedback signal V P-channel power MOSFET is turned on when the clock sets FB to this ramp instead, and regulates V the RS latch, and is turned off when the current comparator FB linearly from 0V to 0.6V. (ICMP) resets the latch. The peak inductor current at which When the voltage on the TRACK/SS pin is less than the ICMP resets the RS latch is determined by the voltage on the 0.6V internal reference, the LTC3809-1 regulates the VFB ITH pin, which is driven by the output of the error amplifi er voltage to the TRACK/SS pin instead of the 0.6V reference. (EAMP). The VFB pin receives the output voltage feedback Therefore VOUT of the LTC3809-1 can track an external signal from an external resistor divider. This feedback voltage VX during start-up. Typically, a resistor divider on signal is compared to the internal 0.6V reference voltage VX is connected to the TRACK/SS pin to allow the start-up by the EAMP. When the load current increases, it causes a of VOUT to “track” that of VX. For coincident tracking during slight decrease in VFB relative to the 0.6V reference, which start-up, the regulated fi nal value of VX should be larger in turn causes the ITH voltage to increase until the average than that of VOUT, and the resistor divider on VX has the inductor current matches the new load current.
