LTC3520 Synchronous 1A Buck-Boost and 600mA Buck Converters FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Dual High Effi ciency DC/DC Converters: The LTC®3520 combines 1A buck-boost and 600mA Buck-Boost(VOUT: 2.2V to 5.25V, IOUT = 1A at synchronous buck DC/DC converters in a tiny 4mm × VOUT = 3.3V, VIN ≥ 3V) 4mm package. A programmable switching frequency Buck(VOUT: 0.8V to VIN, IOUT = 600mA) allows the effi ciency to be optimized while minimizing n 2.2V to 5.5V Input Voltage Range the solution footprint. Both converters feature soft-start n Pin-Selectable Burst Mode® Operation and current limit protection. The uncommitted gain block n Uncommitted Gain Block for LDO Controller, Battery can be confi gured as an LDO or utilized as a battery-good Good Indication or Sequencing comparator. n Programmable 100kHz to 2MHz Switching Frequency The buck converter is current mode controlled with internal n 55μA Total Quiescent Current for Both Converters in synchronous rectifi cation to improve effi ciency. Pin-select- Burst Mode Operation able Burst Mode operation can be enabled to improve light n Thermal and Overcurrent Protection load effi ciency, or the buck converter can be operated in n <1μA Quiescent Current in Shutdown low noise PWM mode for sensitive applications. n 24-Lead 4mm × 4mm QFN Package The buck-boost converter provides continuous conduc- APPLICATIONS tion operation to maximize effi ciency and minimize noise. At light loads, use of Burst Mode operation will improve n Portable Media Players effi ciency. n Digital Cameras The LTC3520 provides a <1μA shutdown mode and over- n Handheld PCs, PDAs temperature shutdown on both converters.
