LTC7852/LTC7852-1 Dual Output, 6-Phase, Multiphase Current Mode Synchronous Controller with Current Monitoring FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Sub-Milliohm DCR Sensing or DrMOS with Current The LTC®7852/LTC7852-1 is a six-phase, dual output Sense Improves Efficiency n current mode synchronous step-down switching regu- Operates with Power Blocks, DrMOS or External lator controller that works in conjunction with external Gate Drivers and MOSFETs n power train devices such as DrMOS, power blocks or ±0.5% Total Output Voltage Accuracy discrete N-channel MOSFETs and associated gate drivers. n Flexible Phase Configuration Its flexible design enables 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, and 6-phase n Dual Output Current Monitoring configurations. The LTC7852 offers a unique feature that n tON(MIN) = 40ns, Capable of Very Low Duty Cycles at enhances the signal-to-noise ratio of the current sense High Frequency signal, allowing the use of inductors with very low DC n Dual Differential Remote Sensing Amplifiers winding resistances for maximum efficiency. The controller n Programmable Frequency Range of 250kHz to 1.2MHz achieves a minimum on-time of just 40ns, permitting the n VIN Range Is Not Limited by IC use of high switching frequency at high step-down ratios. n VCC Range: 4.5V to 5.5V 8-, 10- or 12 phases with two ICs can be paralleled for n VOUT Range: 0.5V to 2.0V very high current requirements up to 400A. n 48 Lead (5mm × 6mm) GQFN for LTC7852 n 36 Lead (4mm × 5mm) QFN for LTC7852-1 The remote sense differential amplifiers and a precise reference provide accurate output voltages between 0.5V APPLICATIONS and 2.0V. The input voltage is not limited by the controller. n Hiccup mode protection from output shorts or overcurrent Computer Systems minimizes the thermal dissipation. n Telecom and Datacom Systems n DC Power Distribution Systems The LTC7852-1 is designed specifically for DrMOS with All registered trademarks and trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
