APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Switching Frequency Oscillator Sync
The LT3999 drives two output power switches out of In applications where a more precise frequency is desired phase, thus the oscillator frequency is two times the actual to accurately place high frequency harmonics, the LT3999 switching frequency of each power switch. The choice oscillator can be synchronized to an external clock. Set of switching frequency is a trade-off between power ef- the internal oscillator frequency 10% to 50% lower than ficiency and the size of capacitive and inductive storage the external sync frequency. The switching frequency is components. one-half the sync frequency. Operating at low switching frequency reduces the switch- Drive the SYNC pin with a 2V or greater square wave. ing losses (transient losses) and consequently improves the The rising edge of the sync square wave will initiate clock power converter efficiency.
