LTC3560
2.25MHz, 800mA Synchronous Step-Down
Regulator in ThinSOT
DESCRIPTION
The LTC®3560 is a high efficiency monolithic synchronous buck
regulator using a constant frequency, current mode architecture. Supply current during operation is only 16μA, dropping to <1μA in shutdown. The 2.5V to 5.5V input voltage range makes the LTC3560 ideally suited for single Li-Ion/Li-Polymer battery-powered applications. 100% duty cycle provides low dropout operation, extending battery life in portable systems.
Switching frequency is internally set at 2.25MHz, allowing the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors. For noise sensitive applications the LTC3560 can be externally synchronized from 1MHz to 3MHz. Burst Mode operation is inhibited during synchronization or when the SYNC/MODE pin is pulled hig...
