High Power 5V to 1.3V-3.5V Regulators
The LTC
®
1753 is a high power, high efficiency switching
regulator controller optimized for 5V input to a digitally
programmable 1.3V-3.5V output. The internal 5-bit DAC
programs the output voltage from 1.3V to 2.05V in 50mV
increments and from 2.1V to 3.5V in 100mV increments. The
precision internal reference and an internal feedback system
provide an output accuracy of
±1.5%
at room temperature
and typically
±2%
over temperature, load current and line
voltage shifts. The LTC1753 uses a synchronous switching
architecture with two external N-channel output devices,
providing high efficiency and eliminating the need for a high
power, high cost P-channel device. Additionally, it senses the
output current across the on-resistance of the upper N-
channel FET, providing an adjustable current limit without an
external low value sense resistor.
The LTC1753 free-runs at 300kHz and can be synchronized
to a faster external clock if desired. It provides a phase lead
compensation scheme and under harsh loading conditions,
the PWM duty cycle can be momentarily forced to 0% or
100% to reduce the output voltage recovery time.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
When I
FB
is taken below GND, it will be clamped by an internal diode.
This pin can handle input currents greater than 100mA below GND without
latchup. In the positive direction, it is not clamped to V
CC
or PV
CC
.
Note 3:
All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of the
device pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to ground unless
otherwise specified.
Note 4:
The Power Good and FAULT trip thresholds are tested at the 1.8V
output voltage code. The Power Good and FAULT trip thresholds are
guaranteed by design for all other output voltage codes to the same
specification.
Note 5:
The LTC1753 goes into the shutdown mode if VID0 to VID4 are
floating. Due to the internal pull-up resistors, there will be an additional
0.25mA/pin if any of the VID0 to VID4 pins are pulled low.
Note 6:
Supply current in normal operation is dominated by the current
needed to charge and discharge the external FET gates. This will vary with
the LTC1753 operating frequency, supply voltage and the external FETs
used.
Note 7:
The open-loop DC gain and transconductance from the SENSE pin to
COMP pin will be (G
ERR
)(1.26/3.3) and (g
mERR
)(1.26/3.3) respectively.
Note 8:
The current limiting amplifier can sink but cannot source current.
Under normal (not current limited) operation, the output current will be zero.
Note 9:
Under typical soft current limit, the net soft-start discharge current
will be 60µA (I
SSIL
) + [– 12µA(I
SS
)]
≅
48µA. The soft-start sink-to-source
current ratio is designed to be 5:1.
Note 10:
When VID0 to VID4 are all HIGH, the LTC1753 will be forced to
shut down internally. The OUTEN trip voltages are guaranteed by design for
all other input codes.
Note 11:
This parameter is guaranteed by design and correlation and is not
tested in production.
