Description

The LT3976 is an adjustable frequency monolithic buck switching regulator that accepts a wide input voltage range up to 40V. Low quiescent current design consumes only 3.3?A of supply current while regulating with no load. Low ripple Burst Mode operation maintains high efficiency at low output currents while keeping the output ripple below 15mV in a typical application. The LT3976 can supply up to 5A of load current and has current limit foldback to limit power dissipation during short-circuit. A low dropout voltage of 500mV is maintained when the input voltage drops below the programmed output voltage, such as during automotive cold crank.An internally compensated current mode topology is used for fast transient response and good loop stability. A high efficiency 75m? switch is included on the die along with a boost Schottky diode. An accurate 1.02V threshold enable pin can be driven directly from a microcontroller or used as a programmable undervoltage lockout. A capacitor on the SS pin provides a controlled inrush current (soft-start). A power good flag signals when VOUT reaches 91.6% of the programmed output voltage. The LT3976 is available in small 16-lead MSOP and 24-lead 3mm ? 5mm QFN packages with exposed pad for low thermal resistance.Applications Automotive Battery Regulation Portable Products Industrial Supplies
