Description

The LTC3615/LTC3615-1 are dual 3A synchronous stepdown regulators using a current mode, constant-frequency architecture. The DC supply current is only 130?A (Burst Mode operation at no-load) while maintaining the output voltages, dropping to zero current in shutdown. The 2.25V to 5.5V input supply range makes the parts ideally suited for single Li-Ion applications. 100% duty cycle capability provides low dropout operation, which extends operating time in battery-operated systems.The operating frequency is externally programmable up to 4MHz, allowing the use of small surface mount inductors. 0?, 90?, or 180? (LTC3615) or 140?/180? (LTC3615-1) of phase shift between the two channels can be selected to minimize input current ripple and output voltage ripple in a dual 3A or single 6A output configuration. Programmable slew rate limiting reduces EMI, and external synchronization can be applied up to 4MHz.The internal synchronous switches increase efficiency and eliminate the need for external catch diodes, saving external components and board space.The LTC3615/LTC3615-1 are offered in leadless 24-pin 4mm ? 4mm QFN and thermally enhanced 24-pin eTSSOP packages.Applications Point-of-Load Supplies Distributed Power Supplies Portable Computer Systems DDR Memory Termination Handheld Devices
