DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®1628-SYNC is a high performance dual stepdown switching regulator controller that drives all N-channel synchronous power
MOSFET stages. A constant frequency current mode architecture allows phaselockable frequency of up to 300kHz. Power loss and noise due to the ESR of the input
capacitors are minimized by operating the two controller output stages out of phase.
OPTI-LOOP compensation allows the transient response to be optimized over a wide range of output capacitance and ESR values. The precision 0.8V reference and power good outp...
