LTC3619B 400mA/800mA Synchronous Step-Down DC/DC with Average Input Current Limit FeaTuresDescripTion n Programmable Average Input Current Limit: The LTC®3619B is a dual monolithic synchronous buck ±5% Accuracy regulator using a constant frequency current mode ar- n Dual Step-Down Outputs: Up to 96% Efficiency chitecture. n Low Noise Pulse-Skipping Operation at Light Loads The input supply voltage range is 2.5V to 5.5V, making it n Input Voltage Range: 2.5V to 5.5V ideal for Li-Ion and USB powered applications. 100% duty n Output Voltage Range: 0.6V to 5V cycle capability provides low dropout operation, extend- n 2.25MHz Constant-Frequency Operation ing the run time in battery-operated systems. Low output n Power Good Output Voltage Monitor for Each Channel voltages are supported with the 0.6V feedback reference n Low Dropout Operation: 100% Duty Cycle voltage. Channel 1 and channel 2 can supply 400mA and n Independent Internal Soft-Start for Each Channel 800mA output current, respectively. n Current Mode Operation for Excellent Line and Load Transient Response The LTC3619B’s programmable average input current limit n ±2% Output Voltage Accuracy is ideal for USB applications and for point-of-load power n Short-Circuit Protected supplies because the LTC3619B’s limited input current n Shutdown Current ≤ 1μA will still allow its output to deliver high peak load currents n Available in Small Thermally Enhanced 10-Lead MS without collapsing the input supply. When the sum of and 3mm × 3mm DFN Packages both channels’ currents exceeds the input current limit, channel 2 is current limited while channel 1 remains regu- applicaTions lated. The operating frequency is internally set at 2.25MHz n allowing the use of small surface mount inductors. Internal High Peak Load Current Applications n soft-start reduces in-rush current during start-up. The USB Powered Devices n LTC3619B is available in small MSOP and 3mm × 3mm Supercapacitor Charging n DFN packages.
